Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 966

Realizing further questioning was futile, Paul left.

After his departure, Ruby resumed packing her belongings. Just as she finished folding her clothes, the doorbell rang.

She opened the door to find Leon standing there. Surprise flickered in her eyes before her expression turned indifferent.

"If you've come to convince me to stay, don't bother. I'm not going back," she said.

"I'm not here to convince you," Leon replied. "I just want to know why you're resigning. Back in Capitarnia, you promised to work hard and help Nyla complete this project."

Ruby frowned. "There's no particular reason. I just think pursuing further studies is more important than this project."

"Further studies?" Leon looked at her in disbelief. "You told me before you had no money and needed to work to support yourself."

Ruby leaned against the doorframe, her hand tightening slightly. Her tone grew frosty as she retorted, "That's my business. It has nothing to do with you."

Her dismissive attitude angered Leon. Before coming, he had thought Ruby might be facing some hardship and that he could offer help.

Seeing her now, already planning to study abroad, he realized he had been naïve.

"Ruby, I came here as a concerned coworker. Since you clearly don't need my concern, I'll say no more. Good luck with your future," he said.

Without waiting for her reply, Leon turned and left.

Meanwhile, Nyla was having dinner when she received a call from Leon.
