Trading My Ex for His Uncle

"Do you really like her?" Richard's voice was authoritative and stern, carrying the weight of his position.

"Yes," Damon answered.

Richard's eyes betrayed his irritation. "Then you'd better stop pursuing her, or the consequences will be more than the Jaystons can handle."

Nyla reporting Cyrus to the police had crossed Richard's bottom line. He couldn't allow Clark to be associated with her any longer, nor let the Sumners be embarrassed.

Damon's gaze turned icy as he met Richard's eyes. "Dad, if you go after the Jaystons, I'll go after the Sumner Group."

The Sumner Group was Richard's lifelong achievement-his pride and creation.

Richard's gaze flared with anger. "You really want to go against the Sumners for the sake of a woman?"

"Dad, it's not about going against you. It's about you interfering with my feelings," Damon replied.

"If you were with any of the women your mother introduced, we wouldn't have said a word. But you know Nyla is your nephew's wife, and you still choose to be involved with her. How can the Sumners hold their head high in the business world?" Richard demanded.

"I like her for who she is. I don't care what anyone else says," Damon said plainly.

Richard sneered. "You don't care. You have your own company now, and I can't control you. If you truly want to be with her, then consider your mother and me dead. Never set foot in this house again!" With that, he stood up and left.

After being unconscious for over an hour, Marie gradually regained consciousness. Her gaze swept around the bedroom, and when she didn't see Damon, disappointment flickered in her eyes.

"Where's Damon?" she asked.

Cindy frowned. She had been diligently caring for Marie, but as soon as Marie woke up, she asked for Damon without acknowledging Cindy's presence. It was as if Cindy hadn't been there at all. Cindy snorted. "Mom, don't bother looking. He left shortly after you fainted."

Marie's face grew even paler, and she looked as though she might faint again.

Catherine quickly interjected, "Madam, Mr. Damon had to leave for work after receiving a call."

Seeing Marie's color improve slightly, Catherine turned to Cindy with a look of dissatisfaction. "Mrs. Summer, I'll take care of Madam Summer. With everything that's happened today, you must be exhausted. You should go home and rest."

Cindy had only stayed to keep up appearances anyway. She nodded. "Fine. If there's anything, just call me at the villa."

Catherine nodded. "Sure."

After Cindy left, Marie grew

sorrowful. She looked at Catherine,

her voice choked with emotion. "How could Damon fall for Nyla?

Velinet

There are so many women in Saintornia. Why would he choose his nephew's wife? And there were no signs of it before..."

Catherine quickly handed Marie a handkerchief Madam, try not to dwell on it right now. This isn't something that can be resolved quickly The most important thing is to deal with Mr. Cyrus' situation first. After that, we can try to persuade MP. Damon." Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Marie shook her head. "I doubt I can persuade him. Since he was a child, if he wanted to do something, no one could change his mind. But if he really insists on being involved with Nyla, I'll die in front of him!" "Madam, please don't say such things. Moreover, Mr. Damon and Nyla haven't done anything yet. There's still a chance to make things right," Catherine comforted.

"If she dares to be with Damon, I won't let her off!" Marie exclaimed.

The idea of Nyla trying to seduce Damon was even harder for Marie to accept than the fact that Nyla had sent Cyrus to the police. After all Cyrus' actions had indeed led to the Jayston family's bankruptcy While Marie was angry, she understood there was a reason behind it.

But Damon was her pride, and Nyla's interest in him was shameless and audacious!

Seeing Marie's rage, Catherine realized she couldn't accept Damon's feelings for Nyla and decided to stop trying to persuade her.

...

After leaving the Sumner residence, Damon drove directly to find Nyla.

Upon arriving, he remained in the car, hesitant to get out.

He had guessed that Nyla was involved in Cyrus' arrest and was somewhat angry about it.
