Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1035

Damon put the file down and sat across from Nyla.

Noticing two portions of breakfast on the table, he asked, "You haven't eaten either?"

"No," Nyla replied as she opened the packages and handed one to him. "I came to eat with you. Spencer told me he brought you breakfast this morning, but you didn't touch it."

"I was too busy," Damon said.

"Being busy isn't an excuse to skip meals. I saw your assistants running around like crazy, and I heard they barely got any sleep last night. Is the issue with the company that serious?" Nyla asked.

"It's significant," Damon admitted. "Our chips might be causing malfunctions in our partner's machines. If that's confirmed, the company will face a massive compensation payout."

Nyla frowned, worry flashing in her eyes. "I can't help much with work, but the least I can do is keep things in order at home. By the way, are you coming home tonight?"

"Probably not," he replied. "There's still a lot to handle."

"Alright. Finish your breakfast. I'll head home later and pack a couple of outfits for you," Nyla said.

"Okay," Damon replied.

As he ate, Spencer knocked and entered with a grim expression. "Mr. Sumner, Laplace's in Capitarnia has decided to terminate their contract with us as well."

Since last night, dozens of partners had cut ties with Prospectus Technology. At this rate, the company's cash flow would soon be in critical condition.

Damon set his breakfast aside and stood. "Contact Mr. Laplace's secretary immediately. Arrange a meeting and book the earliest flight to Capitarnia. I'll go there myself."

As he moved toward the door, Nyla called after him, "I'll pack a few clothes and send them to the airport."

He stopped, turned back, and pulled her into a hug.

"I'll probably be extremely busy for a while. Thank you for taking care of Buddy," he said in a low voice.

Nyla's heart sank at his tone.

"Let's talk in the study," she said.

Once inside, Brandon handed her a document and a bank card.

"Uncle Damon asked me to give these to you before he left for Capitarnia. The card's PIN is your birthday," he said.

Nyla didn't take them. "What does he mean by this? He's not going to Capitarnia forever. Why is he passing these through you?"

"He was in too much of a rush to give them to you himself," Brandon explained. "Otherwise, he would've done it personally."

"I'm not taking them. I'll wait for him to come back," Nyla said.
