Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla) -
Chapter 304
Chapter 304
If they hadn't been at a couple's restaurant, sitting on the same side of the table, and if Damon hadn't been serving her food, Nyla might have convinced herself that the woman was merely a business partner of Prospectus Technology. She p
put down her phone and lowered her head, her expression somber.
The moment she saw the photo, she had the urge to call Damon and confront him, but she managed to
calm herself at the last moment.
Nyla was merely using Damon. Even if he was involved with another woman, what right did she have to question him?
After all, she hadn't planned on being with him forever, had she?
Her phone buzzed again, with Valarie sending several more messages.
Valarie: [I looked into it. The woman's name is Rebecca Austen, Damon's first love. After receiving a full scholarship, she went abroad, and they lost touch.]
Valarie: [Not many people knew about their relationship back then. After she went abroad, no one dared to mention her in front of Damon. If I hadn't investigated, I wouldn't have known he had a past relationship.] Valarie: [Nyla, if Damon really did something wrong to you, what are you going to do?]
As Nyla read Valarie's messages, her face grew paler. Even after all these years, Damon had set a special ringtone for Rebecca, indicating that she was still important to him.
Nyla closed her eyes, trying to push away the troubling thoughts. It was a relief she hadn't fallen for Damon. Otherwise, this would be even more painful.
She stood up and headed back to her room.
The maid hurried over. "Ms. Jayston, since Mr. Sumner hasn't returned yet, would you like to have a bite
to eat first?"
"No, just clear away the food. He won't be coming back tonight," Nyla replied.
The maid was momentarily stunned. By the time she reacted, Nyla had already started up the stairs.
Back in her bedroom, Nyla lay on her bed, contemplating her next move. If Damon planned to rekindle his relationship with Rebecca, he would likely end things with her first. While she was lost in thought, her phone suddenly rang
Upon seeing Damon's name, her expression dimmed. It took her a moment to answer.
"Nyla, I'm sorry, I haven't finished dealing with things yet. I won't be able to come back anytime soon," Damon said.
"Okay," Nyla replied curtly.
Noticing the chill in her tone, Damon hesitated and asked, "Did something happen?"

Nyla wanted to retort that he should know better than she did what was happening, but she held her
tongue.
"It's nothing. I'm just a bit tired. Carry on with your work. I need to rest," she said.
Without giving Damon a chance to respond, she ended the call.
Damon's expression darkened as he heard the busy tone. His grip on the phone tightened as he stood at the restaurant entrance. When Rebecca emerged from the restroom, she noticed Damon staring at his phone with a sullen look. She frowned.
Since he had come to see her the night before, she had felt he was distracted. Even when he
he seemed absent-minnet
Upon recalling what Clark had said before she returned, a cold resolve flashed in her eyes. Damon was hers alone, and she wouldn't let anyone take him away!
She approached him and asked sweetly, "Damon, what are you looking at?"
Damon put away his phone and looked at her with a neutral expression. "Nothing. I'll take you back."
On the way back, Rebecca made several attempts to start a conversation, hoping to bridge the gap between them.
However, Damon's attitude remained distant, lacking the warmth and consideration he had previously shown. When they reached her hotel, she turned to him and asked, "Do you want to come up and hang out for a while?"
