Trading My Ex for His Uncle

Nyla pursed her lips and entered the hospital room.

"Dad, I'm planning to send you abroad for treatment. The doctor has already agreed. Once your health improves and everything is arranged overseas, I'll buy tickets for you and Wren to go," Nyla announced. Harrison interrupted her, "I'm not going. I'm staying in the country."

Nyla frowned. "Dad, the medical facilities abroad are better, and you need time to recover..."

Harrison cut her off, "After you send me and Wren abroad, what are you planning to do next? Are you going to fight the Sumners alone?"

Nyla lowered her gaze and replied flatly, "No. Didn't you tell me before not to continue?"

"Then why are you still involved with the Sumners?" Harrison slammed his hand on the table, his eyes filled with anger as he stared at Nyla. "When have I been involved with the Sumners?" Nyla asked, bewildered.

"Don't lie to me! You just divorced Clark, and now you're entangled with his uncle. What exactly are you trying to do?!" Harrison demanded.

Nyla widened her eyes, her gaze turning icy. "Who told you that?"

"Does it matter who told me? What matters is whether it's true! Tell me honestly, are you with Damon or not?" Harrison pressed.

The room fell silent.

Wren looked at Nyla with disdain, shocked that Nyla could be involved in such actions. If Nyla had been her own daughter, Wren would have been furious beyond belief. Who would divorce their husband and then get involved with his uncle? It was laughable.

Nyla was silent for a few seconds before admitting directly, "Yes, I'm with him."

Disappointment flashed in Harrison's eyes. He looked tired as he said, "I failed to raise you properly. I've done your mother wrong."

When Clark had first brought this up, Harrison hadn't believed it, thinking Nyla wouldn't do something like this. Now that she had admitted it, he couldn't deceive himself an

longer.

"Dad, I know you can't understand this right now. Just focus on your recovery. Don't worry about me," Nyla said.

Seeing her unrepentant attitude, Harrison gritted his teeth and said, "Break off with him immediately. Otherwise, I won't go abroad or see you again!"

Disbelief clouded Nyla's eyes as she instinctively took a step back.

"Dad, I thought you'd be different from the others, but I was wrong. You're just the same as the Sumners," she cried.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Wren sneered. "Nyla, don't blame me for speaking harshly. What good can come from your involvement with Damon? You're only setting yourself up for pain. You wouldn't think he—" Nyla interrupted coldly, "If you know it's harsh, then don't say it. After all, you're not my mother, and you don't have the right to control me."

Harrison slapped her, and the room fell silent instantly.

His hand trembled slightly as he spoke with deep disappointment "Wren is only looking out for you. Even if she's not your mother, she's still an elder. How can you speak to her like that?"

Nyla lowered her head, her long hair concealing her face and emotions. The stinging pain on her cheek was nothing compared to the hurt caused by Harrison's words.

She looked up at him and said

slowly, "I arrange the tickets for you to go abroad. Whether you choose to go or not is up to you. Since you don't want to see me, I won't come back again."
