Gabriel was the owner of Nyce Tech?
If anyone else had told Jane this, she would have dismissed it as nonsense. But since Pedro mentioned that the document came from Damon, she knew it was the truth.
However, now that Gabriel owned Nyce Tech, there was no longer any need for her to pursue Pedro. The market value of Nyce Tech far exceeded that of the Wilkie Group.
Thinking of this, Jane felt a brief flicker of joy, but her expression quickly darkened.
She had added the drug she brought with her into the tea she made for Pedro. If he had drunk it...
Panicking, she rushed to the Wilkie residence.
As she entered the living room, she saw a maid carrying the teapot she had sent to the study earlier, heading toward the kitchen.
Jane quickly stopped the maid, breathless. "Has Grandpa drunk the tea yet?"
The maid, looking confused, shook her head. "No, Mr. Wilkie said he was going to bed and that the tea might cause insomnia. He had someone bring him a glass of warm milk instead."
"Oh... that's good..." Jane sighed in relief, though she noticed the maid eyeing her with suspicion.
"I just remembered that I read somewhere that old people shouldn't drink tea at night because it's bad for their health…" she quickly added. "Give me the tea. It's my favorite. I'll take it back and drink it."
Though the maid still seemed uncertain, she handed the tea over. "Alright, Ms. Wilkie."
"Thanks, you should get some rest," Jane said, her voice hurried.
After sending the maid away, Jane took the tea and left, walking briskly back home.
Back at the Wilkie residence, Pedro stopped the maid and coldly asked, "What did Jane say to you earlier?"

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....
