Jane's eyes flickered with indifference as she said, "If he didn't constantly cause trouble and make me angry, I wouldn't need to hit him. And since you care so much about him, why haven't you come home these past few days?"
Gabriel's face clouded with displeasure.
"I stayed away because I didn't want to see you," he replied coldly. "And I've told you before—if you don't want him, I'll take him."
"I'll never let you take him!" Jane hissed.
Her face twisted with rage, her eyes burning with hatred as she leered at Gabriel.
She resented him.
If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be so isolated, with no one to rely on. She had chosen him out of love, yet instead of gratitude, he had the audacity to demand a divorce when she needed him most.
If he wouldn't let her have peace, she wouldn't let him have it either.
Gabriel looked at Jane, now consumed by hysteria, and felt only disgust. "Jane, I will take Wilhelm. I won't leave him here to suffer your abuse."
Gabriel didn't hold much affection for Wilhelm, but he was still his son, and he had the means to care for him.
"If you stop bringing up divorce, I'll stop taking my anger out on him. Move back in today, or I'll make you regret it," Jane threatened.
Gabriel's eyes turned icy. "You think you can use Wilhelm to manipulate me?"
"Yes, and what are you going to do about it?" Jane retorted.
Gabriel nodded, his voice steely. "Alright, Jane. Since you're forcing my hand, don't blame me for being ruthless."
He had intended to offer her a settlement after the divorce, but now he decided she wouldn't get a cent.
Jane's confidence faltered under his piercing gaze. Unease crept into her chest as she stood abruptly.
"Gabriel, what are you planning to do?" she demanded.

The readers' comments on the novel: Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)
More chapters please why stop updating...
When will the new chapters come...
Author! Why does it always so mean? Like a new character will appear and at the end of the chapter, they're all antagonist who always intend to hurt Nyla. Is there any character who will protect her with no expectation in return of any thing?...
AUTHOR!!! NOTICE THIS PLEASE!!!! I hope that Nyla's heart can be softened with Damon alone like clear things up and make some intimate time with each other. And of course Damon talking to Rebecca will make Nyla go back to her status again. Just a short calmness and joy for Nyla and Damon....
