Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1081

Damon remained silent, his face set in a grim expression. If this card truly contained the staggering amount claimed, the situation was anything but reassuring.

After verifying the balance at the bank, his expression grew even darker.

Sensing something amiss—especially given Damon's lack of joy—Spencer grew uneasy.

"Mr. Sumner... isn't it good that the card holds this much money?" he asked hesitantly.

Damon's gaze sharpened. "Head back to the office. I need to deal with something at home."

"Understood," Spencer replied, though confusion lingered on his face.

Damon left swiftly.

Spencer stood by, watching the car disappear down the road, his thoughts clouded.

Shouldn't they be celebrating? With this amount, saving the company should have been a sure thing.

…

Less than an hour later, Damon arrived at the villa.

Nyla was lounging in the living room, watching TV.

When she saw him enter, her brow furrowed slightly. "Why are you back so early?"

Damon settled across from her, placing the bank card on the coffee table. "Do you have any idea how much money is on this card?"

Recognizing it as the one Mason had handed over the previous night, Nyla frowned. "Around 8,000 dollars, right? What's the issue?"

"This card holds one trillion dollars," Damon said flatly.

The moment the words left his mouth, Nyla burst out laughing. "Since when did you start cracking jokes like this?"

"I'm serious." Damon unlocked his phone and handed it to her, displaying a photo he had taken at the bank's balance check.

Her laughter died as she stared at the image.
