Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1008

Besides, Nyla didn't even like Gabriel. It had always been him chasing her.

What was Jane supposed to do—crack open his head and make him stop liking Nyla?

Wren frowned, clearly irritated.

"Alright, I'm not in the mood to talk about this. Go home," she said, waving Jane off.

Jane protested, "Mom, we haven't even discussed how to bring Gabriel back to me and Wilhelm. I need your help."

"What do you want me to do?" Wren asked.

"Later, call Gabriel and tell him Wilhelm has a fever and wants to see him. Get him to come home," Jane requested.

Wren hesitated. Gabriel's attitude toward her had grown increasingly cold. If he found out she was conspiring with Jane to deceive him, it could further damage their relationship.

Seeing her reluctance, Jane sighed. "Mom, do you really want to watch him chase after Nyla? With the way things are between you two now, do you think Nyla will treat you kindly if they end up together?"

"That's impossible! Nyla doesn't like him. They won't end up together," Wren stated.

"She didn't before, but now that people know he's the owner of Nyce Tech—which isn't far off from Prospectus Technology in standing—that might change." Jane stopped there, letting Wren think it over.

"I… I still don't think it's possible. Go home. I need to think about this," Wren said finally.

Suppressing her frustration, Jane stood up. "Alright. Take your time. I'll head back."

As Jane left the villa, her expression turned icy. It looked like she would have to handle this on her own.

…

That evening, Jane personally picked Wilhelm up from school.

When Wilhelm saw her, his face lit up briefly before he pressed his lips together.
