Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla and Damon) novel Chapter 998

Jane told the maid, "I understand. You can head back first. I'll check if Wilhelm is asleep, then I'll go over."

The maid nodded. "Alright, Ms. Wilkie."

Jane went upstairs, placed the drug in her bag, changed her clothes, and headed for Pedro's residence.

Knowing that Pedro was in the study, she didn't hurry to see him. Instead, she went to the kitchen.

"Grandpa loves the tea I make, so I'll brew a pot and bring it to him," she told the maids.

She prepared the tea and then personally carried it to the study.

After knocking on the door and entering, Jane was met with Pedro's cold, piercing gaze.

She paused for a moment, then walked over and set the tea on the table with a smile. "Grandpa, who upset you?"

Pedro sneered, grabbing a document and throwing it onto the table. "Take a look for yourself!"

Jane poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him. "Grandpa, please have some tea first."

Before she could finish speaking, Pedro suddenly knocked the cup from her hand.

The hot tea splashed onto Jane's hand, and a sharp pain shot through her. She quickly pulled her hand away from the cup.

As she checked her now-red hand, Pedro's cold voice echoed above her head. "Jane, take a good look at this document and see who you really married!"

Jane froze. Enduring the pain in her hand, she picked up the document and flipped it open. Her expression shifted from confusion to shock.

"This... How is this possible?!" she gasped.

Jane shook her head. "Grandpa, he always acted normally. He went to work at the game company, and on weekends, he'd stay home with Wilhelm. There was no unusual behavior. And not just me—you didn't notice anything either, right?"

"You spent the most time with him. If you didn't notice, how could anyone else have?" Pedro shot back.

Facing Pedro's furious gaze, Jane felt a mix of frustration and confusion. Why was she being blamed when it was Gabriel's fault?

"Enough. Go back now. From now on, be careful around him. As for your divorce, I'll send a lawyer from the company to help. Since he's harmed the company so badly, if you want a divorce, make sure he pays the price!" Pedro declared.

Jane didn't respond, her head lowered as she turned and left.

Back at the villa, Jane sat on the sofa in a daze.
