Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1168

Drake's ultimate target was Nyla. If Prospectus Technology fell, no one could protect her or Mason.

The companies that had sided with Drake acted out of self-interest, but they now regretted their decisions. Damon could gain significant strength by reestablishing cooperation with them.

Of course, Valarie had her own motives. She wanted to repay Summer Coates for saving her life and hoped to restore their collaboration.

"Whether or not she can stay out of it, talking to her won't help. Stop dragging her into this," Brandon said.

"Brandon, who are you to order me around?" Valarie retorted.

Pinching the bridge of his nose in frustration, Brandon replied, "Can you stop being unreasonable? I'm not threatening you. I'm reminding you. Don't forget—the Weir Group avoided bankruptcy only because of my uncle."

Valarie laughed coldly. "You're right. He did save the Weir Group, and I'm grateful. But that doesn't mean he can interfere in everything I do."

Without giving him a chance to respond, she hung up.

When Brandon tried calling again, he found she had blocked him.

Taking a deep breath, he set his phone aside and headed back to the meeting.

…

Still angry, Valarie blocked Brandon on every platform. Just as she prepared to start her car, her phone rang again.

Seeing it was Summer, she suppressed her irritation and answered.

"Valarie, how did it go? Did Ms. Kinsey agree to help?" Summer asked.
