Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1017

Gabriel smiled. "Grandpa, rest assured—I'm not here to scheme against you. I've come to return the gaming company to the Wilkie Group free of charge."

Pedro's sharp eyes narrowed coldly. "You're being this generous? I don't buy it."

"Of course, I have conditions," Gabriel replied evenly.

"And what are they?" Pedro asked.

"I want a divorce from Jane, full custody of Wilhelm, and for the Wilkies to send Jane abroad permanently. She's not to return," Gabriel stated firmly.

Pedro raised an eyebrow, surprised.

Returning such a lucrative gaming company just for a divorce? As for sending Jane abroad—that was already part of his plan.

Pedro remained silent, but Gabriel showed no impatience. He sat quietly, waiting for a response.

After a long pause, Pedro finally spoke, his tone icy. "How do I know you're not bluffing? You could strip the company of its core assets and leave me with an empty shell."

Gabriel chuckled. "Of course not, Grandpa. That gaming company may generate hundreds of millions annually, but it's nothing to me. Returning it doesn't hurt my bottom line. All I want is the divorce."

"This requires careful consideration. You may leave for now," Pedro said curtly.

Gabriel stood, adjusted his sleeves, and smiled. "Very well, but I suggest you act quickly. My patience is limited. Even if you refuse, I have other ways to ensure the divorce happens—it just might get messy."

Pedro's expression darkened. "Is that a threat?"

"Not at all, just a friendly reminder," Gabriel replied before leaving.

Watching his retreating figure, Pedro struggled to reconcile this confident, composed man with the seemingly meek grandson-in-law of years past.
