Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 956

Jane's words reminded Pedro of something he had almost forgotten.

Years ago, he had assigned Gabriel to the gaming company, not expecting it to thrive. He had done so simply to keep Gabriel away from the Wilkie Group's core operations. Yet somehow, Gabriel had managed to turn it around.

Pedro glanced at his butler and said, "Go and call Gabriel."

Half an hour later…

Pedro sat behind his desk in the study, while Gabriel stood in the center of the room.

Jane remained kneeling on the floor.

"Gabriel," Pedro began, his tone firm. "I hear your gaming company has been doing well these past couple of years. You're aware of the Wilkie Group's crisis. I've decided to sell the company to save the group. Start preparing the necessary documents for the handover."

Gabriel didn't seem surprised by this decision. He nodded calmly. "Alright. But selling in a rush might mean we won't get the best price."

"I know. How much do you think it's worth right now?" Pedro asked.

After a moment of thought, Gabriel replied, "Under normal circumstances, it could go for over 400,000,000 dollars. But given the current urgency, we'd be lucky to get 350,000,000 dollars."

Now that the issue with the Wilkie Group was public, it was inevitable that people would take advantage of the Wilkies' vulnerability.

"Fine. Don't sell it for less than 350,000,000 dollars," Pedro stated.

"I understand. I'll start organizing the paperwork immediately," Gabriel replied.

Pedro cast a cold glance at Jane, who was still kneeling. "Sorting out all the documents for a sale like this is no small task. You'll accompany Gabriel and assist him with the preparation. Stay out of the Wilkie Group for now."

Despite being married for five years, Jane felt she had never truly understood Gabriel.

He was always calm, detached, and indifferent—even earlier, when Pedro had ordered the sale of the company he had spent years building, Gabriel had shown no reaction.

Her mind raced with doubts. Did he ever truly care about her?

Gabriel turned to look at her. "What do you want me to say, Jane?"

"The Wilkie Group is in such a mess, and you're not even going to try to comfort me?" Jane demanded.

Her accusation didn't seem to surprise Gabriel. He gazed at her with a soft expression, his voice steady. "Jane, I think what's more important right now is figuring out a way forward—a contingency plan for us."

Jane's face darkened. "A contingency plan? What do you mean? Are you saying the Wilkie Group is doomed to fail?"
