Your Uncle’s My Husband Now—Back Off, Ex! のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

After returning from the police station, Lucia dragged her tired body home.She knew her father was truly angry this time, and she had to do something to appease him. She went into the kitchen and carefully prepared a bowl of hot cream of mushroom soup, Clement's favorite.Carrying the bowl, Lucia tiptoed towards the study. The study door was ajar, and through the crack, she heard Clement's deep voice. Lucia wanted to push the door open, but when she heard her father mention the surname "Summer," she instinctively stopped."Cyrus, you should remember what I did for the Summer family back then," Clement's voice carried a threat. "Now it's time for you to repay that favor."Cyrus Summer's tense voice came from the other end of the phone: "Clement, that happened six years ago. We agreed never to bring it up again.""Is that so?" Clement sneered. "But things are different now."Lucia pressed herself against the door, holding her breath and listening intently. Her heart began to race."What

In the stairwell, Lucia pointed at Nyla furiously, her eyes burning with hatred."Nyla, did you spread rumors about me in the company?" Lucia's voice was sharp and piercing. "Why does everyone know what I did now? You must have told them!"Facing Lucia's crazy accusations, Nyla only felt it was ridiculous. She looked calmly at this former friend, her tone indifferent: "I didn't spread any rumors. You know in your heart what you've done.""If not you, then who else?" Lucia pressed relentlessly, gripping Nyla's arm tightly. "Besides you, who else would know these details?"Nyla felt confused too. Who was helping her behind the scenes, exposing Lucia's evil deeds to everyone? But she didn't want to entangle with Lucia any longer."Let go of me, Lucia." Nyla tried to break free from her control. "We have nothing to talk about.""Don't you dare leave!" Lucia held tightly onto Nyla who was trying to leave. "You owe me an explanation!"The two women struggled in the stairwell. Nyla tried hard

A few days later, Nyla sat on the edge of her bed packing her belongings. She was preparing to be discharged. The doctor had confirmed her concussion was completely healed. She could return to normal life.She was putting the last few clothes into her suitcase when the hospital room door suddenly burst open. Nyla thought it was a nurse coming to handle discharge procedures. But when she looked up, she saw Jordyn walking in wearing high heels."Oh, looks like you're recovering well." Jordyn's voice carried obvious provocation. She walked straight to the hospital bed and sat down. Her posture was intimate as if this was her territory.Nyla looked at her coldly without speaking. She continued organizing the things in her hands."You must have been really bored these past few days in the hospital, right?" Jordyn deliberately drew out her tone. "But Clark has been so busy. He accompanies me to prenatal checkups every day. He even cooks for me personally."She deliberately raised her hand. T

Nyla had just used her key to open the front door. She hadn't even had time to change her shoes when she heard urgent footsteps behind her. She turned back to see Clark storming toward her."Nyla!" Clark's voice was full of anger. "You think hiding at home means I can't find you?"Nyla ignored him. She pretended not to see him and walked straight toward the bedroom. She needed calm. She needed a safe space."Don't think you can run!" Clark followed behind her, trying to grab her arm.Nyla quickly dodged away. She hurried into the bedroom, slammed the door shut, and locked it from the inside. She leaned against the door, listening to Clark's angry pounding outside."Open the door! Nyla, we need to talk!" Clark shouted loudly from outside."We have nothing to talk about." Nyla responded calmly through the door. "Please leave."However, what Nyla didn't expect was that half an hour later, she heard a stranger's voice outside the door."Sir, the lock is open."Nyla watched in shock as the

Clark sat in his office with a face as dark as water. He picked up the phone on his desk and dialed his assistant Michael's extension."Michael, come in." Clark's voice sounded suppressed and dangerous.A few minutes later, Michael knocked and entered the office. "Mr. Clark, you wanted to see me?""I want you to send someone to Rontana City." Clark looked directly at Michael. "Watch the situation there. Report to me immediately if anything's wrong."Michael was somewhat confused but still nodded. "Alright, I'll arrange it right away. Is there anything specific I should pay attention to?""Nyla is on a business trip there, with Damon." Clark's fingers tapped on the desk. "I want to know their every move."Michael suddenly understood Clark's concern. "Got it. I'll find the most reliable person to handle this."Clark waved his hand, indicating he could leave. After Michael left, Clark sat alone in his office. Just thinking about Nyla possibly spending time alone with Damon made his heart
