All Chapters of Trading My Ex for His Uncle: Chapter 741 - Chapter 750

Margaret glared at Ruby, resentment burning in her eyes. How could Ruby, working at such a good company, possibly be broke? She must have been planning to abandon Hansel!Across from her sat Alex Douglas, a man in his 40s with one eye blind, a scarred face, and a menacing demeanor."Are you sure if I bring her back, you'll pay me 3,000 dollars?" Alex asked.Margaret clenched her teeth. "Of course. Duncan agreed to give 40,000 dollars as a dowry. As soon as I get the money, I'll give you 3,000 dollars."Alex sneered. "Giving me just 3,000 dollars out of 40,000 dollars? Seems a bit unfair, don't you think?"Margaret was surprised by his sudden change of tone, and her expression darkened. "Alex, don't try to raise the price. You know that money is for saving my son's life. Trying to take advantage of me now? That's just cruel!"Alex looked at her mockingly. "You're willing to throw your daughter into the fire just to save your son. Who's more inhumane here?"Margaret fumed. "Are yo

Nyla watched Damon's broad back, feeling warmth in the places where he had touched her. It was as if those spots were burning, sending heat through her body straight to her heart.A few seconds later, she snapped out of it and carried the pasta outside.When Damon emerged after washing the pan, he saw Nyla sitting at the dining table, staring down, seemingly lost in thought. He walked over and sat down across from her."Why aren't you eating?" he asked.Nyla looked up. The moment their eyes met, she quickly looked away. "I'm waiting for you. Let's eat together."With that, she picked up her cutlery and shoved some pasta into her mouth."Be careful, it's hot!" Damon reminded her, but it was too late.The moment the scalding pasta touched Nyla's tongue, she frowned in pain.Feeling a sharp sting, she quickly spat the pasta out.In the next instant, a cool hand grasped her chin.Damon said, "Open your mouth."Nyla instinctively complied, a refreshing pine scent enveloping her,

"Okay, I understand," Nyla replied.She lowered her eyes, suddenly recalling that the soup was cooking in the kitchen. When she looked up to ask Damon if she could have some now, she found herself lost in his tender gaze instead.The living room fell silent.She could almost hear her heart racing. After a few seconds of staring, she finally snapped back to reality and quickly averted her gaze.Right away, Damon's deep voice broke the silence. "What is it?"Nyla bit her lip and spoke softly. "I just wanted to ask if I can still have soup tonight?""You can, but try to avoid the areas that got burned," Damon answered."Got it. I'm fine now," Nyla said."Alright, I'll check again in the morning. If there's still swelling, we'll apply the oral gel again," Damon replied.As soon as he finished speaking, Nyla recalled the earlier moment when he applied the oral gel for her, and her cheeks flushed.She really didn't want to go through that again, so she said, "Just give me the oral

Damon raised an eyebrow. "You like cafeteria food?"Nyla nodded. "Yeah, some of the dishes are really good and authentic.""Then we should go together next time," Damon said.Nyla agreed.It was only after she had readily agreed that she suddenly realized what Damon meant. Did he want to go to the cafeteria with her? Did he think she hadn't been popular enough lately?Since they were already commuting to and from work together every day and she visited the CEO's office for lunch daily, going to the cafeteria together didn't seem like a big deal.Besides, with Damon's statement about their relationship sent to the company group chat, no one would dare gossip about them openly.As Nyla pondered this, she realized she had grown accustomed to being with Damon. She didn't know when he had started to quietly seep into her life.Thinking this, she bit her lip and fell silent.Noticing Nyla's silence, Damon frowned, about to speak when the elevator arrived.Once they stepped inside,

However, Ruby didn't plan to go alone and intended to invite Nyla along.After she shared what had happened the previous night, Nyla's expression darkened."Why didn't you tell me last night? Did you call the police?" Nyla asked.Ruby nodded. "Yes, I reported it, and the police are investigating now."Nyla's gaze dimmed. If she had any hope left for her parents, it was now gone. Ruby genuinely intended to cut ties with them.If the police discovered that the person who tried to drug and abduct her was indeed acting on her parents' orders, she wouldn't let it slide easily.Seeing the determination and strength in Ruby's eyes made Nyla's heart ache.She took Ruby's hand and said, "Alright, I'll go with you tonight. Sullivan saved your life, so it's only right to invite him to dinner.""Thank you, Nyla," Ruby replied.Nyla sighed and spoke seriously. "If anything like this happens again, you must tell me right away."Ruby's eyes shimmered with gratitude. "Nyla, thank you!""Alr
