Trading My Ex for His Uncle

"Y You! Cindy was so enraged that she nearly fainted. She shook violently, unable to say a word as she pointed at him.

In the end, she stormed out in fufy

The next day at noon, Nyla arrived at the restaurant, where William was already waiting.

She quickly walked over and sat down across from him, looking apologetic. "Sorry, I was delayed at the lab."

"It's alright, Ms. Jayston. Please take a look at this document," William said.

Nyla took the document from William and skimmed through it, her brow furrowing in concern. Since Clark's affair, he had deliberately transferred assets, with most now under Jordyn's name.

"Ms. Jayston, the main issue is that Clark and Jordyn are married. He likely consulted a lawyer when transferring the assets. It was done meticulously, so it's very difficult to reclaim them," William explained, "So, how much can I expect to get?" Nyla asked.

"700,000 dollars," William replied.

Nyla wasn't particularly surprised by this amount-she had suspected it from the document.

"Alright, I understand. You can negotiate with his lawyer," she agreed.

William looked surprised. "Ms. Jayston, aren't you going to contest this further?"

Nyla shook her head. "I don't want to waste more time on him, and another lawsuit would drag on for at least a year or more."

More importantly, now that she was with Damon, remaining entangled with Clark might affect Damon.

William nodded. "Okay, I understand."

"Thank you for your hard work," Nyla said.

"It's no trouble," William replied.

Back at the company....

As Nyla was about to take her lunch break, her phone rang.

Seeing that it was her father's primary doctor, she quickly answered, "Doctor, what's the update?"

"Ms. Jayston, I've arranged for your father to be transferred to a hospital abroad at any time," the doctor said.

Nyla's grip on the phone tightened as she looked down. "Okay, I understand. Thank you!"

After hanging up, Nyla called Wren to share the news.

Wren's voice was filled with excitement. "I'll pack up, and we can leave tomorrow morning."

"What about my dad..." Nyla began.

"Don't worry. I'll persuade him," Wren assured.

Nyla decided not to press further and was about to hang up when

Wren spoke again. "Nyla, denet

hold

it against me. What I said before

was for your own good."NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

Nyla hadn't taken her words to heart. She could tell whether Wren was genuinely concerned for her or just worried about being implicated.

Still, she wasn't going to confront Wren. Doing so would only complicate things for her father and was unnecessary.

"Wren, I'm not blaming you. I did act

impulsively before. After you go abroad, I't leave everything to you With the distance, I won't be able to get there quickly if anything happens. Thank you for your help," Nyla said.

"I'm glad you understand," Wren answered.

After hanging up, Wren immediately called Gabriel to inform him of her plans to go to Meristate the next day.

"Gabriel, unless something unexpected happens, I'll fly to Meristate with Harrison tomorrow. Will you be available to pick us up?" she asked.

There was a brief silence on the other end before Gabriel replied, "Mom, I'll be coming back next week."

"Returning here for a work-related matter?" Wren asked, then smiled. "In that case, we'll wait for you to come back before

going to Meristate together. A few days wouldn't make much of a difference."

"No, I'm coming back for work. I probably won't return to Meristate," Gabriel replied.

Wren's smile froze. "What do you mean? You were doing well in Meristate. Why the sudden decision to come back? And you never mentioned this before when I called."
