Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)

Chapter 535

Erin forced a smile. "I'm glad you understand, Ms. Kinsey."

Nyla nodded. "I do understand, but I hope you'll think things through in the future and avoid doing something so pointless."

"Of course, I'll keep that in mind!" Erin gritted her teeth in frustration, her gaze sharp and icy as she glared at Nyla.

Nyla smiled and turned to Damon. "Thank you for today, Mr. Sumner. I assume you and Ms. Hulle have more to discuss, so I'll take my leave." "Let's have dinner another day as an apology," Damon replied.
