Trading My Ex for His Uncle Chapter 629
Seeing Damon's confident demeanor, clearly having a plan in mind, Brandon finally felt a sense of relief."Okay, I get it. But Clark and Uncle Cyrus have gone too far. They'll do anything to get their hands on the Sumner Group," he grumbled.Damon remained indifferent, commenting, "It's not surprising. People will risk everything for money. If they don't bring me down, they'll never get the Sumner Group."Even though Damon was right, Brandon still believed that Cyrus and Clark were far too ruthless. If Clark hadn't cheated back then, he wouldn't have been kicked out of the Sumner Group. Meanwhile, Brandon wouldn't have had the chance to become the company's CEO.If one wanted something, one should work for it. Trying to take the easy way out would only lead to self-destruction.After wrapping up their conversation, Brandon lingered for a little while longer before leaving.Later, after putting Mason to bed, Nyla came downstairs to get some water.Seeing only Damon sitting on the

Valarie figured the woman Brandon mentioned was probably just a stand-in Damon had found to replace Nyla.She didn't care how Damon regained his memory after losing it for five years—what he was doing was clearly an insult to Nyla. She wasn’t going to let this go easily.Brandon wasn’t surprised by Valarie’s reaction. After all, if someone suddenly told him that a person who had been dead for years was still alive, his first reaction would be disbelief too."Valarie, I’m not joking. I really—" he tried to explain.Before he could finish, the call ended abruptly. When he tried to call back, he saw that the line was busy.Brandon frowned, thought for a moment, and turned his car around. He drove straight to Valarie’s place. Since she didn’t believe him, he was going to take her to see Nyla himself.…After hanging up, Valarie tore off her face mask and took several deep breaths to calm herself down. She quickly changed into an outfit and drove off.Not long after leaving her hous

Brandon clenched his jaw, resolute. "Uncle Damon, Valarie really misunderstood. You're the bigger person here. Don't hold a grudge against her."Valarie broke free from Brandon's grip, stepping forward to face Damon again."I don't need his forgiveness. Even if it costs me my life today, I'm going to get justice for Nyla!" she snapped.Damon let out a cold laugh. "Justice? What do you think you know?"Realizing Damon's fury, Brandon quickly grabbed Valarie's arm, saying, "Valarie, you've really misunderstood. That woman is Nyla. It's my fault for calling you earlier—I should have told you in person. Hurry and apologize to my uncle!"Valarie shook off his hand, her tone icy. "Why should I apologize? Fine, if you say that woman is Nyla, then bring her out right now! I want to see just how much she looks like the real deal!"As her words fell, the temperature around them seemed to drop sharply.Brandon didn't dare look at Damon. Nonetheless, he suppressed his fear and sneaked a gla

"I don't want to hear it!" Valarie shouted. "I thought we were best friends, but you treated me like this."Seeing Nyla alive and well in front of her was initially exciting.However, as the reality sank in—that Nyla had hidden the truth from her for five years, causing her so much pain—a wave of disappointment washed over her.She realized she had been the only one suffering all this time while Nyla was alive and well, even back with Damon.Valarie felt like a joke. Nyla was already with Damon, and here she was, foolishly seeking justice for her.Not wanting to look at Nyla any longer, Valarie turned and quickly walked to her car.Once inside, she slammed the gas pedal and sped away.Brandon hurriedly jumped into his car to chase after her.Nyla bit her lip, instinctively glancing at Damon, who had remained silent. To her surprise, she noticed a red handprint on his cheek.Upon realizing it was from Valarie, guilt flashed in Nyla's eyes. "Mr. Sumner, I'm so sorry... I didn't

Damon nodded with a hum.The two fell into silence.Nyla put away the ice pack and looked up at Damon. "Mr. Sumner, could you give me Brandon's contact information?"Damon narrowed his eyes. "What do you need his number for?""I'm worried about Valarie… I want to check if he's caught up with her," Nyla explained.Seeing the worry and guilt in Nyla's eyes, Damon reassured her, "Don't worry. With him there, Valarie will be fine.""I'd still like his contact number. I can only relax once I know Valarie is okay," Nyla insisted.Damon frowned and was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang.Upon seeing Brandon's name on the screen, his eyes turned cold, and he took a moment to answer."Uncle Damon, can you send Aunt Nyla over?" Brandon's anxious voice came through. "I caught up with Valarie, but her emotions are really unstable right now. She's locked herself in the car and won't come out."I think Aunt Nyla needs to come over and clear up the misunderstanding between them."

Nyla grabbed Valarie's hand and tried to explain."Valarie, I didn't mean to hide this from you. There's so much going on behind the scenes," she said.Valarie pulled her hand away. "What kind of hardship could justify lying to me all these years?"Taking a deep breath, Nyla slowly recounted her experiences over the past few years.As Valarie listened, her anger gradually shifted to surprise and heartache.In the end, she hugged Nyla and cried. "I'm sorry. I misunderstood you."Nyla, also in tears, returned the embrace. "I'm the one who should apologize."Watching the misunderstanding between the two women clear up, Brandon finally breathed a sigh of relief.He turned to Damon and said, "Uncle Damon, thank you for bringing Aunt Nyla over."Damon frowned. "Didn't I tell you? She's not your aunt."Brandon glanced at him. "Uncle Damon, don't you like her?""Why would I like her?" Damon replied.Noticing Damon's frown, Brandon couldn't help but chuckle. "If you don't like her,

Damon listened to Luca a while longer before slamming his phone against the wall, his expression icy.The next morning, as Nyla came downstairs, she sensed an unusual atmosphere in the villa.Lydia, who usually greeted her with a smile, was busy in the kitchen and barely acknowledged her with a quick wave.Even Maddie, who often made sarcastic remarks, didn't glance her way at all today.After sitting down at the table with Mason, Nyla was about to greet Damon when he abruptly stood and left without even looking at her.Watching his cold retreat, she bit her lip, a hint of confusion flickering in her eyes.What was going on with Damon? Was he still upset about last night?As Damon exited, the oppressive atmosphere in the living room lightened, and it felt noticeably warmer.Mason, oblivious to the strange vibe, looked up at Nyla and whined, "Mommy, I want the pancakes you make. Can you make some for me?"Suppressing her worries, Nyla nodded. "Sure, I'll make them right now. Yo

Upon seeing Nyla, Damon tightened his grip on his pen, his knuckles turning white. Coldly, he replied, "No, I don't like greasy food."He refocused on the documents, his frown revealing how upset he was. It would take a fool not to recognize that Damon was angry with her.Nyla bit her lip and took a deep breath before entering the study. As she approached, Damon looked up and snapped, "I'm working. Get out!"His icy gaze froze her in place, and her face paled slightly. "Mr. Sumner, are you still upset about last night?" she asked.Damon shot her a cold look. "No. Can you leave now?"Nyla didn't budge, forcing herself to meet his gaze. "But… your attitude is making me anxious. Did I do something wrong?"Damon scoffed. "Anxious? What do you have to be anxious about?"If it weren't for Luca's investigation, he wouldn't have believed that the person behind Stephen was her. He had just started to feel something for her, only to discover she was using Stephen and Prestige Corp. to s

If Wilhelm stopped wanting to see Jane, the bond between them would naturally fade over time."No! I don't want food!" Wilhelm cried, hurling Gabriel's phone onto the car seat.He began pounding on the car door, trying to open it. "I want to see Mommy! I want to live with her, not you!"Gabriel, his patience wearing thin, locked the doors with a sharp click and turned to Wilhelm, his expression darkening."Your mother doesn't want you. Even if you find her, she won't take you. I'm the only one you have now," he said."I hate you! I don't want to be with you! I don't want you as my dad!" Wilhelm screamed.Gabriel's restraint, already fraying after days of tantrums, finally snapped. He stared at his son and said coldly, "It doesn't matter whether you want me or not. No one wants you now except me."Jane didn't want Wilhelm. The Wilkies wouldn't want him either."That's not true!" Wilhelm sobbed uncontrollably. "Mommy wants me. Mommy's just mad. If I'm good, she'll take me back! S

Lydia nodded. "Okay, Ms. Kinsey."Shortly after, Lydia returned with Mason by her side.When Mason saw Gabriel and Wilhelm standing at the door, he frowned and turned to Nyla. "Mommy, why is Wilhelm here?"Nyla patted his head gently. "He's here to apologize to you.""Oh." Mason's response was wary, clearly unconvinced.Gabriel observed Nyla's affectionate interaction with Mason, his eyes flickering with a trace of emotion. He turned to Wilhelm. "What did you promise me before we came?"Wilhelm's reluctance was evident. He had agreed to apologize, but only under the threat of losing his chance to see his mother."Mason, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have pushed you yesterday. I hope you can forgive me," Wilhelm said, his voice subdued.Mason didn't respond immediately. Instead, he looked up at Nyla, silently seeking her guidance."Buddy, this is your decision to make," Nyla said softly. "I'll respect whatever you decide."Mason lowered his head, thinking for a moment.Finally, he s

Brandon sighed and placed the items on the desk. "Aunt Nyla, this crisis is unlike anything Prospectus Technology has faced before. If things go wrong, the company can go bankrupt."Uncle Damon prepared these after finding out Buddy is his son, but he hadn't found the right time to give them to you."Keep them for now. If Prospectus Technology collapses, he'll need this to start over."After a moment's silence, Nyla nodded. "Alright, I'll hold onto them. Is this the only reason you came?""Yes, I need to get back to work," Brandon replied."I'll see you out," Nyla offered.After sending Brandon off, she returned to the study and placed the documents and bank card in the safe upstairs.The next morning…As Nyla was getting dressed, Lydia knocked on the door."Ms. Kinsey, there's a man outside who says he's your brother," Lydia informed her.Brother?Thinking it was likely Gabriel, Nyla's expression turned cold. "I don't know him. Tell him to leave.""Understood," Lydia said

Damon put the file down and sat across from Nyla.Noticing two portions of breakfast on the table, he asked, "You haven't eaten either?""No," Nyla replied as she opened the packages and handed one to him. "I came to eat with you. Spencer told me he brought you breakfast this morning, but you didn't touch it.""I was too busy," Damon said."Being busy isn't an excuse to skip meals. I saw your assistants running around like crazy, and I heard they barely got any sleep last night. Is the issue with the company that serious?" Nyla asked."It's significant," Damon admitted. "Our chips might be causing malfunctions in our partner's machines. If that's confirmed, the company will face a massive compensation payout."Nyla frowned, worry flashing in her eyes. "I can't help much with work, but the least I can do is keep things in order at home. By the way, are you coming home tonight?""Probably not," he replied. "There's still a lot to handle.""Alright. Finish your breakfast. I'll hea

Gabriel took the document, skimmed its contents, and his face darkened."What is it?" Tom asked.Gabriel tossed the document onto the table with a cold laugh. "Nothing important. Damon's just trying to catch me off guard."The document contained evidence of Nyce Tech hiring paid posters to smear Prospectus Technology, but Gabriel wasn't worried.Soon enough, those allegations would become the truth.Tom glanced at the papers and grinned. "As long as it's not a big problem. Anyway, I should get going.""Fine, but don't forget your part in this," Gabriel said pointedly.There was a cold glint in Tom's eyes, though his smile remained. "Relax. I won't let you handle Prospectus Technology alone."After Tom left, Gabriel drained his wine in one gulp.As he prepared to head to his study, a maid approached with a concerned expression."Mr. Hackett, Mr. Wilhelm still refuses to eat," the maid informed him.Gabriel had brought Wilhelm straight back to the villa instead of letting him

Damon's expression was icy as he spoke. "I've already sent the head of R&D with a team to investigate. Let's wait for their findings before jumping to conclusions."He added, "The Agihop 6th Gen isn't out yet. If the issue does lie in the Agihop 5th Gen, we should prepare for the worst—compensation payouts and the possibility of... bankruptcy.""What?!" A collective gasp echoed through the room, disbelief etched on everyone's faces."All this over a single batch of faulty machines from the Longbow Company? Isn't that a bit extreme?""Exactly. If the problem is with the Agihop 5th Gen chips, wouldn't paying compensation suffice?""Mr. Sumner, aren't you exaggerating?"The notion that Prospectus Technology could face bankruptcy over a single chip seemed absurd.Meeting their skepticism with a calm demeanor, Damon elaborated, "The news about Longbow Company's machines breaking down after using our chips has already spread.They're attributing the issue to Prospectus Technology's p

Damon's expression remained unmoved. "As I said, we'll investigate thoroughly. Asking us to accept responsibility before the investigation is complete seems unreasonable, doesn't it?"Jeffrey let out a cold laugh. "Fine, Mr. Sumner. But I hope you act quickly. Every day of delay costs us millions. The longer this drags on, the more Prospectus Technology will have to pay."With that, Jeffrey turned and stormed out of the room.Damon, his expression as icy as ever, summoned the head of the R&D department to his office."Take two of your team members to the Longbow Company and investigate the root cause of the machine failures. Determine whether it's our chips," Damon instructed."Mr. Sumner, it can't be our chips! We've invested so much in their development, and they've been on the market for over three years without a single issue. The problem must be elsewhere," the department head replied.Damon's tone sharpened. "I want accurate results based on the investigation—not assumption

Upon noticing Nyla's flushed cheeks, Damon's eyes darkened further."Nyla, need some help with your bath?" he asked, his voice low and enticing.Nyla snapped out of her daze, quickly pushing him away. Her wary gaze made him look like some kind of dangerous predator."No need, I'll do it myself," she replied.If she let him help, they might not come out of the bathroom for two hours.Disappointment flickered in Damon's eyes. "You really don't need help?""Mm-hmm. Now go. If you have nothing to do, play with Buddy downstairs. I'm going to shower," Nyla said, grabbing her pajamas.She darted into the bathroom as though something was chasing her, locking the door behind her with a sharp click.Hearing the lock, Damon chuckled softly, shook his head, and left the bedroom.Downstairs, Mason was playing with toys in the living room. He didn't even glance up at the sound of Damon's footsteps, already able to distinguish between Damon and Nyla's steps. Just as Damon reached the sofa,

Damon raised an eyebrow and said flatly, "It's not about my approval. It's about ensuring the safety of the other children."Gabriel kept his gaze low, anger flickering in his eyes. What else could he say?"Understood. I've learned my lesson today, Mr. Sumner," he gritted through his teeth.The crowd began to disperse.Most parents hurriedly took their children and left, keeping a noticeable distance from Wilhelm and Gabriel as they passed, still wary that Wilhelm might lash out unpredictably.Before long, only Damon, Nyla, and Mason remained at the gate with Gabriel and Wilhelm.Gabriel turned to Damon with a cold expression. "If there's nothing else, Mr. Sumner, I'll take Wilhelm and leave now.""Mr. Hackett, shouldn't your son apologize to Buddy?" Damon asked.Gabriel's expression hardened.Taking a deep breath, he looked down at Wilhelm and said sternly, "Wilhelm, apologize to Buddy."Wilhelm lifted his chin defiantly. "I won't! I didn't do anything wrong!""Wilhelm, beh
