Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 1280

As Mason's mentor, Alexander couldn't just sit by and watch his family fall apart.

After a long pause, Damon finally said, "Alright. I'll give you one more chance."

When Nyla came out of the shower, Alexander had already left.

Hearing sounds from the kitchen, she walked over and found Damon cooking pasta.

"Damon," she called softly.

He turned to her with a small smile. "All done? Go sit down. The pasta will be ready soon."

"Okay," she replied.

Five minutes later, Damon brought out a steaming plate of pasta and placed it in front of her. "Eat up. Get some rest after this."

The delicious aroma filled the air. Nyla picked up her utensils and glanced at Damon. "Aren't you eating?"

He shook his head. "I'm not hungry."

"Alright," she answered.

As she ate, she finally had the chance to ask about his conversation with Alexander.

"He said he'd help us return home and make sure we're never dragged into the Nixons' business again," Damon said.

Nyla nodded. "Do you think he's telling the truth?"

"For now, it seems that way. But we'll have to wait and see what he actually does," Damon replied.

"Mm. We'll deal with it when the time comes," Nyla said.

Damon advised, "Don't overthink it. Just get some rest tonight."

"Okay," she murmured.

…

"You haven't even asked her yet. How do you know?" Alexander countered.

"She just wouldn't! Give up on that idea," Warren said.

Alexander stood up with a nod. "Alright, then. In that case, I won't interfere anymore. Whether Aunt Emerald can keep control of the Nixons is up to her."

With that, he turned to leave.

Just as he reached the door, Warren's furious voice echoed behind him. "Stop right there! Are you really going to abandon your aunt? Have you forgotten everything she's done for you?"

Alexander turned back to look at him. "She was good to me in the past, but I've done plenty for her over the years. I don't owe her anything. If you still want to support her, that's your choice."

Warren's face turned red with anger. "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?! Our family will be doomed if you don't help her!"

"It's not like I care what happens to the Kinseys or the Nixons," Alexander remarked nonchalantly.

Warren fumed. "You ungrateful brat! How did I end up with a son like you?!"
