Trading My Ex for His Uncle

Chapter 314

Spencer lowered his head, hesitant to speak. The loss of the major deal was significant, and he was puzzled as to why the other party would risk offending Prospectus Technology by working with Clark's small company. Damon's eyes were filled with anger. "Go get the person in charge of this deal!"

"Understood, I'll go right away!" Spencer hurriedly left, eager not to be stopped by Damon.

Since breaking up with Nyla, Damon had become quite fearsome.

Near noon, Nyla and Melody went to the cafeteria for lunch.

Melody noticed something odd and couldn't help but ask, "Nyla, aren't you having lunch with Mr. Sumner?"

They had only recently gotten together, so it seemed strange that Nyla was acting as if nothing had changed. Just a few days ago, she would occasionally check her phone for messages, but today she hadn't looked at it at all. Nyla pursed her lips and replied calmly, "We've broken up."

"What?! You guys broke-" Melody quickly covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes wide with shock.

It wasn't until they had sat down with their food that she recovered from her surprise and leaned in to whisper, "How did you guys break up so suddenly? Did Mr. Sumner initiate it?"

Nyla picked up a piece of vegetable and said expressionlessly, "It doesn't matter who initiated it. Let's eat before the food gets cold."

Seeing that Nyla didn't want to elaborate, Melody suppressed her curiosity. She pretended to focus on her meal while speculating about the reason for their breakup.

Halfway through their lunch, an HR representative came into the cafeteria to find Nyla. "Nyla, this is your new colleague. He's responsible for another

project, but his office is next to yours. Please get along well."

Nyla frowned when she saw the man standing next to HR. It was Gabriel.

"Why didn't you mention that you accepted Prospectus Technology's offer when we last had dinner?" Nyla asked.

Gabriel smiled. "I interviewed with several companies, but I felt Prospectus Technology was the best fit for me in the end."

Observing their interaction, the representative smiled and asked, "Oh, you two know each other?"

Gabriel nodded. "Yes."

"That's great. I won't introduce him

further. Nyla, I have other matters to attend to. His desk is right next to yours, so please show him to his office later," the representative requested.

"Alright," Nyla agreed.

After the representative left, Melody's inquisitive eyes darted between Nyla and Gabriel, a mischievous smile on her face. "Nyla, I didn't know you had such a handsome friend!"

Nyla glanced at her and replied without much enthusiasm, "This is my brother. Gabriel, this is Melody Sorley, my colleague."

Upon hearing Nyla introduce him as her brother, Gabriel smiled. "Ms. Sorley, nice to meet you. I'm Gabriel Hackett."

Melody quickly shook his hand and

said, "Nice to meet you too. I'm Melody. Since you're siblings, why do you have different last names? Is it because one of you takes after your father and the other after your mother?"

Gabriel's smile widened. "No. We come from a blended family."

Melody understood immediately and nodded. "Oh."

Nyla, not wanting to continue the topic, turned to Gabriel. "Have you had lunch yet?"

"Not yet. I'm not familiar with what's good here. Can you recommend

something?" Gabriel asked.

Nyla thought for a moment and said, "I remember you don't like spicy food. There's probably something you might like upstairs." "Great," Gabriel said.

After Gabriel left, Melody whispered, "Nyla, your brother is so good-looking! If

he doesn't have a girlfriend, I'm definitely going to try to win him over!"
