Trading My Ex for His Uncle

Chapter 676



After ensuring everything was settled, Parker left.

Nyla glanced at Brandon, who had remained silent since the start of the altercation.

Guessing he probably had something to discuss with Damon, she decided it was best to give them some privacy and took Mason out of the room. Once the door closed, Brandon finally spoke to Damon. "Uncle Damon, when did you find out that you're not a Sumner?"

"A short while ago," Damon answered indifferently. "But don't worry. I have no intention of competing with you for control of the Sumner Group."

He had never been interested in running the company and had been grooming Brandon to take the reins for years. Now that Brandon was capable, he was ready to step back.

Brandon frowned and replied, "You know that's not what I meant. If you wanted the company, I'd hand it over to you in a heartbeat. After all, we both know the company has a better future with you in charge than with me. It's just... hard for me to accept that you're not really my uncle."

Damon was silent for a moment before saying, "You can still consider me your uncle. If the company ever faces any problems, you can always come to me."

Hearing this, Brandon finally relaxed. "Good. No matter our blood ties, you will always be my uncle."

After his parents died in a car accident, he was the only one left. Cyrus and Clark had tried to push him out, but Damon had been the one who had sent him abroad for an education, teaching him how to manage a company.

Without Damon, he might never have had a chance to join the organization.

After becoming the CEO of the Sumner Group, Damon had sent people to assist Brandon, guiding him every step of the way to where he was now. Damon was the person he was most grateful for within the Sumners. Despite their close ages, Damon's presence always brought him peace of mind. "Don't overthink it. Just focus on managing the company. Now that you own this 20% share, your position in the company is secure," Damon assured him.

Brandon nodded. "I will do my best."

"Good. Handle Cyrus' case. Make sure he doesn't have the chance to cause any more trouble," Damon instructed. Mentioning Cyrus darkened Brandon's expression. His fists clenched at his sides. "Understood. I'll take care of it."

When Damon left the hospital, the tension he had been holding finally eased.

With Clark and Cyrus taken care of, no one in the Sumners would trouble Nyla and Mason again. Their lives could soon return to normal.

However, he recalled the roses that had unexpectedly shown up at Nyla's door.. He narrowed his eyes, After receiving Nyla's call about the flowers, he had ordered someone to investigate who had sent them, but they had yet to find anything. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

If this person remained unidentified, Nyla and Mason could still be in danger.

With that thought, Damon

immediately called Spencer. "Addet

more people to investigate who sent the roses to Nyla's place. I want answers within three days.

On Nyla's way home with Mason, she received a call from Caroline.

"Nyla, are you planning to stay in Saintornia for a while?" Caroline asked.

"Most likely. Is there a problem with the lab back in Capitarnia?" Nyla replied.

"No, no. The lab is fine. It's just that Professor Kington took on a project in Saintornia, and since you're there, he

Cants to assign it to you,"

Caroline said.

Noticing the unusual tone in Caroline's voice, Nyla asked, "I'm not too busy here, so I can take on the project. Is there an issue with it?"

"The project itself is fine, but... the partner company is Prospectus Technology..." Caroline mumbled.
