บททั้งหมดของ Your Uncle’s My Husband Now—Back Off, Ex!: บทที่ 731 - บทที่ 740

Pedro nearly staggered back in anger."Take him away! Stop letting him spout nonsense here!" he barked.Whether Jane was involved or not, the priority was to downplay the situation. If it hadn't been for Theo's foolishness, things might have already been smoothed over.The more Pedro thought about it, the angrier he became. Once Damon and Nyla left, he was determined to teach Theo a lesson. The young man needed to know when to speak up—and when to stay quiet.Jane trembled slightly, struggling to stay calm. Only she, Pauline, and Gabriel knew about this incident, and none of them would betray her. Thus, Theo had to be bluffing. There was no way he could know!Theo pushed Quincy aside, saying, "Mom, I'm fine."He took out his phone, eyeing Jane with a cold smile. "Jane, everything you said to Gabriel by the rock garden? I recorded it. Let's play it for everyone, shall we?"Without waiting, he pressed play.Instantly, Jane and Gabriel's voices echoed through the room, plunging th

"Really? Then tell me, what exactly did you do right? If you can't explain, don't bother going to the company!" Pedro threatened.Quincy and Hudson were appalled.Theo, however, remained calm, unaffected by Pedro's words. "Jane sent Pauline to push Nyla today, but Nyla wasn't injured, so there's still room to fix this. Since Jane didn't get what she wanted, she would probably go after Nyla again."If I didn't expose her earlier and she caused something worse later, the Wilkies might not be able to cover it up." Theo continued. "Today, our family's reputation suffered a little in front of Damon and Nyla, and we lost two villas. But next time, it might be far worse."As he finished speaking, silence settled over the living room.After a few moments of reflection, Pedro had to admit that Theo made some valid points.Still, he shot Theo a cold look and asked, "And you're saying there's no self-interest in this for you?""Of course there is. I want to start learning how to manage the

"Are you saying that if I admit I'm jealous, you'll try to make it up to me?" Damon asked.They were so close that his breath grazed Nyla's ear, tickling it like a feather's touch.She looked up at him and smiled. "That's right.""I'm jealous, then. What are you going to do about it?" Damon said.Without another word, Nyla cupped his face and kissed him lightly. "Don't worry. I only have eyes for you—I wouldn't look twice at anyone else."Her eyes sparkled like a million stars, and Damon could see his reflection in them.When he didn't respond, merely gazing at her, Nyla raised an eyebrow. "Mr. Sumner, are you saying you're not happy with this approach?"Damon slid his hand behind her neck and kissed her deeply.When they finally broke apart, their clothes were a little disheveled.Damon kissed Nyla's collarbone softly, his voice low and raspy. "I'm more than satisfied."It was after midnight when they finally entered the villa.As soon as they walked in, Lydia came over to

"Nyla, I really didn't mean to keep this from you. I just hadn't figured out how to tell you... Your father is in really bad shape. The doctor said he might not have much time left..." Damon explained.Nyla's hands tightened slowly.After a long pause, she replied, "I'm feeling really overwhelmed right now. I need a moment to calm down."Seeing her pale face, Damon felt a twinge of concern. "Okay, I'll stay with you.""No need," Nyla said, rejecting his offer.As soon as she spoke, the elevator arrived. She stepped inside, and Damon tried to follow, but a look from her stopped him in his tracks.Nyla didn't walk far, though. After exiting the elevator, she sat on a bench in a pavilion at the inpatient building, lost in thought.Over the past few years, she hadn't thought much about Harrison and hadn't kept up with how he was doing. After all, they had ended things on such bad terms that she had lost all hope for him.During their last meeting five years ago, although Harrison h

"Nyla, I'm sorry. If it hadn't been for the company going bankrupt back then, you wouldn't have had to suffer so much," Harrison said.Nyla shook her head. "Dad, it's all in the past, and I'm doing fine now."After talking for a while longer, a nurse entered to remind Harrison to take his medication and get his IV.Nyla stood up. "Dad, make sure to rest well. I'll come back to see you tomorrow."Harrison's eyes flashed with reluctance. After five years apart, he hadn't had enough time to absorb Nyla's presence before they had to part again.Noticing his disappointment, Nyla smiled. "I'll visit you every day from now on."Harrison was momentarily stunned but then nodded quickly. "Okay, just be careful on your way back."As Nyla left the hospital room, she spotted Damon sitting on a chair in the corridor. He was tall, and sitting down made him appear somewhat constrained, his long legs particularly noticeable.Damon caught her gaze and looked up, instantly breaking into a smile.
