Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 970

As Valarie reflected on their relationship, she became more and more irritated, recalling how she had always been the one putting in the effort.

Not only had Tom never given her anything, but he had also shamelessly flirted with other women. How could she have been so blind five years ago to fall for someone like him?

"The most important thing is not letting him interfere with your relationship with Brandon," Nyla reminded her.

Although Valarie hadn't said as much, Nyla could tell she was serious about Brandon. It was clear she was already thinking about marriage.

In Nyla's opinion, while Brandon was young and still maturing, his love for Valarie was genuine—and that was enough.

"Don't worry. I've been throwing everything Tom sends straight into the trash without telling Brandon," Valarie replied.

Nyla paused, then advised, "You might want to mention it to Brandon, just to avoid misunderstandings down the line."

Valarie was about to respond when she noticed Brandon approaching. She stood up. "That was quick. Done talking already?"

"Mm," Brandon replied. "Let's go."

As Nyla stood, she asked Valarie, "Want to stay for dinner?"

Valarie shook her head. "No, we have plans later."

Nyla didn't press further. She and Damon walked them to the door and watched them drive off before heading back inside.

"Nyla," Damon called suddenly.

She turned to him. "What is it?"

"There's a bidding event tomorrow evening. Will you come with me?" Damon asked.
