Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1021

Wilhelm's eyes were red, filled with reluctance as he looked at Jane. "Mommy… I don't want to leave you…"

At that moment, Jane was overwhelmed by a wave of sorrow.

The thought of Wilhelm being taken away by Gabriel, with no guarantee she'd ever see him again, made her heart ache as if it were being torn apart.

She hugged Wilhelm tightly and looked up at Gabriel. "I don't want your money anymore. I want custody of my son!"

They were divorced now. Gabriel would undoubtedly remarry soon. When he had a new wife and child, there would be no place for Wilhelm in his life.

Gabriel's expression remained cold. "Jane, are you insane? What makes you think I'd ever give you custody?"

Considering her past actions—hitting Wilhelm and intentionally giving him allergenic food—Gabriel was resolute in not leaving Wilhelm in her care.

"I gave birth to Wilhelm! How dare you take him away? You're just doing this to chase after Nyla! Why even bother with Wilhelm?" Jane spat.

He despised her so much. If he really ended up with Nyla and they had another child, Wilhelm would surely remind him of her. It would stir even more resentment toward the boy.

The mere thought of this possibility solidified Jane's resolve to fight for her son.

"And leave him here with you, so you can keep mistreating him?" Gabriel mocked.

Jane's arms froze around Wilhelm as she gritted her teeth. "I'll never hit him again. I won't mistreat him. He's my child, and from now on, he'll only have me. I won't let you take him away."
