Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 855

"Okay, thank you for your hard work," Nyla replied.

"It's no trouble at all. I'll get back to cleaning now," the cleaning lady replied.

Nyla nodded. "Sure."

The cleaning lady quickly returned to the kitchen, and soon the sounds of clattering came from inside.

Nyla helped Harrison sit down on the sofa. He looked around the living room with a sense of nostalgia.

His eyes landed on the lines on the wall that marked Nyla's height, and he couldn't help but smile. "Nyla, go stand by that height chart. I want to see how tall you are now."

Following his gaze, Nyla smiled and walked over to the entrance, leaning against the wall.

The highest mark barely reached her waist, and Harrison sighed softly. "I remember the last height mark was made by your mother."

Nyla nodded, a hint of sadness crossing her face. Not long after that line had been recorded, her parents had divorced.

The day Emerald had left the country, Nyla had been on her way to an out-of-town competition. She hadn't even had the chance to say goodbye.

As Harrison became busier with work, her height was no longer marked on the wall. When the company finally stabilized, he moved them to a larger house.

Looking back, Nyla thought Harrison had probably been trying to avoid thinking about her mother, burying himself in work during that time.

Moving away seemed to be an effort to escape painful memories.
