Trading My Ex for His Uncle

"Nyla, Jordyn is being completely shameless. She messed with your marriage and now she's cyberbullying you. The worst part is that people are still supporting her online. It's infuriating!" Melody huffed. Seeing Melody's furious expression, Nyla reached out and pinched her cheek. "It's not worth getting upset over. She'll regret it soon enough."

"Aren't you going to clarify things?" Melody asked.

"Of course I will. Don't worry about me. Just get ready to leave work," Nyla replied.

After Melody left, Nyla checked everything one more time to confirm there were no issues before locking up the lab and heading out.

As she turned around, she saw Gabriel standing a short distance away, obviously waiting for her.

Noticing that Nyla didn't seem inclined to speak with him, Gabriel took a few steps closer and asked, "Did you see what's happening online?" Nyla nodded. "Yes. What about it?"

"Do you need me to help you deal with it?" he offered.

"No. I can handle it myself," Nyla said.

Gabriel sighed, about to say something, when footsteps echoed from the end of the hallway.

Spencer approached Nyla briskly. "Ms. Jayston, Mr. Sumner wants to see you."

Realizing it was likely about the video posted by Jordyn, Nyla paused for a moment before replying, "I understand."

She didn't look back at Gabriel and walked straight to the elevator.

When Nyla entered Damon's office, he was reading through some documents.

"Give me two minutes," he said.

Nyla sat quietly on the sofa, waiting for him.

Damon signed the last document and then sat down across from her.

"I've already had the video Jordyn posted removed, and the trending topic has been suppressed. There won't be any more news online, so you don't need to worry about it affecting your life," he said. "Thank you, Mr. Sumner," Nyla replied.

Damon frowned. "Must you be so formal with me?"

Nyla didn't want to argue with him about this. She looked at him calmly. "Mr. Sumner, do you need anything else?"

Damon remained silent, clearly annoyed. Nyla ignored him, stood up, and turned to leave.

Just as she took a few steps, her wrist was suddenly grabbed.

Instinctively, she tried to pull away, but Damon pulled her into his embrace.

Coincidentally, the office door opened at that moment.

"Damon, I knew you'd be working late, so I brought-" Rebecca's smile froze.

The thermal container she was holding fell to the floor, spilling its contents in a mess.

Nyla felt a surge of frustration. She tried to push Damon away-she just wanted to focus on her work and exams, without any more involvement with him.

"Damon, let go!" she hissed.

Rebecca looked at Damon in disbelief, tears welling up in her eyes. "Damon..."

"Is there anything else?" Damon asked.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Embarrassed, Rebecca covered her face and turned to run away, crying.

"Can you let go of me now?" Nyla asked.

Meeting Nyla's cold gaze, Damon loosened his grip on her waist abruptly.

"Nyla, I just want to have a proper talk with you," he said.

Nyla didn't even glance at him and walked away without a word.

Damon's hands clenched into fists as he watched her retreating figure, his eyes filled with a mix of emotions.
