Trading My Ex for His Uncle

Chapter 1036





Brandon sighed and placed the items on the desk. "Aunt Nyla, this crisis is unlike anything Prospectus Technology has faced before. If things go wrong, the company can go bankrupt.

"Uncle Damon prepared these after finding out Buddy is his son, but he hadn't found the right time to give them to you.

"Keep them for now. If Prospectus Technology collapses, he'll need this to start over."

After a moment's silence, Nyla nodded. "Alright, I'll hold onto them. Is this the only reason you came?"

"Yes, I need to get back to work," Brandon replied.

"I'll see you out," Nyla offered.

After sending Brandon off, she returned to the study and placed the documents and bank card in the safe upstairs.

The next morning...

As Nyla was getting dressed, Lydia knocked on the door.

"Ms. Kinsey, there's a man outside who says he's your brother," Lydia informed her.

Brother?

Thinking it was likely Gabriel, Nyla's expression turned cold. "I don't know him. Tell him to leave."

"Understood," Lydia said before stepping away.

Half an hour later, after getting dressed and heading downstairs, Nyla found Mason at the table. He was holding a slice of bread bigger than his face and nibbling at it.

She smiled, sitting down next to him. "Good morning, Buddy."

"Morning, Mommy," Mason replied.

As she sat across from him for breakfast, she checked her phone.

Damon hadn't sent her any messages since the day before, confirming how busy he was.

After a moment's hesitation, she sent a text.

Nyla: [How's everything going in Capitarnia?]

Minutes passed with no reply. She closed the app, moved to the living room, and picked up a book to pass the time.

Lydia soon approached her with hesitation. "Ms. Kinsey..."

"What's wrong?" Nyla asked.

"The man outside is still there, and he's brought a child with him. It's freezing out, and the child's face is turning blue. Should we check on them?" Lydia explained.

After a moment of thought, Nyla got up. "I'll handle it."

At the villa door, she saw through the security feed that it was indeed Gabriel and Wilhelm. Her expression turned icy.

Opening the door, she asked coldly, "What do you want?"

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have pushed Mason yesterday. I was wrong. Can you and Mason forgive me?" Wilhelm apologized.

Seeing his obvious unwillingness, Nyla turned to Gabriel. "Are you sure he really understands his mistake?"

"He does," Gabriel said. "He even insisted on coming here to apologize this morning. Don't you believe me?"noveldrama

After a pause, Nyla looked toward Lydia. "Bring Buddy over here."
