Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1201

Lydia froze for a moment, her eyes widening in disbelief. "Mrs. Sumner, where are you going?"

"I'm going abroad, and I'll be gone for a long time. Please take care of Damon and Buddy for me," Nyla said.

It took Lydia a moment to process what she had just heard.

When she finally did, she hurriedly reassured her, "Don't worry. I'll take good care of them."

Nyla smiled gratefully. "Thank you, Lydia."

After their conversation, Nyla turned and walked toward the door, where Damon and Mason were waiting to take her to the airport.

…

The drive was silent.

Over an hour later, the car pulled up to the airport entrance.

Nyla took a deep breath and turned to Damon. "Damon, while I'm gone, please take good care of Buddy and yourself. Your health is the most important thing."

Damon nodded. "I will. Once you arrive in Meristate, the people I've arranged to protect you will contact you. If you're ever in danger, reach out to them. They'll make sure you're safe."

"Okay," Nyla replied, then looked down at Mason and pulled him into a hug. "Buddy, be good and listen to Daddy. Eat well, okay?"

"Mm," Mason hummed.

Damon wrapped an arm around Nyla, holding her close.

The three of them stayed locked in a tight embrace until the driver reminded them that it was almost time for her flight.

Nyla wiped her red-rimmed eyes and stepped out of the car.

Damon and Mason followed her. As Damon retrieved her luggage from the trunk, he said, "Call me when you land, if you can."

"I will. Goodbye," Nyla said.

"Mm," Damon hummed.

Damon handed him a few tissues before turning to stare out the window, a determined glint in his eyes.

He was sure—that day wouldn’t be too far away.

...

Nyla entered the airport and soon spotted Emerald and Alexander waiting for her.

Emerald stood tall in a long black trench coat, oversized sunglasses covering her face. Her chin was slightly lifted, and her expression was cold and unapproachable.

When Alexander saw Nyla, he waved.

Nyla approached them, her voice devoid of emotion. "It's about time. Let's go through security."

Emerald frowned, displeased. "Why do you look so reluctant? Once you get to Meristate, you'll see how foolish it is to resist."

Nyla met her gaze calmly. "You can tell me that after we arrive."
