Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)

However, in the next moment, Clark found his suspicion somewhat laughable. If he were truly infertile, how could Jordyn be pregnant?

On the other end of the line, Michael spoke up after a brief silence. "Mr. Sumner, is there anything else you need?"

Clark's voice was low and firm. "No, that's all."

He had initially considered asking Michael to schedule another body check-up, but now he felt it was unnecessary.

Just after ending the call, Clark walked into the obstetrics and gynecology department.

Jordyn was coming out of the doctor's office, holding a report and smiling.

"Clark, the doctor says the baby is healthy," she said.

"Great. Since the check-up is done, let's go," he replied curtly, not waiting for her reaction as he turned and walked away.

To Clark, merely accompanying Jordyn to the prenatal check-up was already a significant gesture. He had no interest in the finer details or in taking care of her. After all, Jordyn had nothing and wouldn't leave him, even for money. Jordyn's expression dimmed as she watched Clark's retreating back. She then quickened her pace to catch up with him.

...

As they reached the parking lot, they ran into Nathaniel and Rebecca.

Rebecca's face was pale, and she looked a bit wilted. She greeted Clark and Jordyn with a smile. "Mr. Sumner, Ms. Austen, are you here for a prenatal check-up?"

Her gaze briefly flicked over Jordyn's stomach with a hint of derision.

Jordyn frowned and shot Rebecca a warning look.

Rebecca seemed unaffected, as Jordyn was never her target.

Nathaniel greeted Clark and then turned to Rebecca, speaking quietly. "Rebecca, we're running late for our appointment with the doctor."

Rebecca nodded and linked her arm with his. "Alright, let's go."

It had taken over a month to get Nathaniel to agree to reconcile, so she now behaved very sweetly around him.

She could also feel that his attitude had grown colder-though still polite, it was no longer as patient as it used to be. Whenever he was occasionally impatient, his

demeanor turned icy.

Not having completely appeased Nathaniel, she naturally needed to appear even more dependent on him.

After Nathaniel and Rebecca left,

Jordyn couldn't help but remark sarcastically, "I used to hear how

much Nathaniel liked Rebecca. Now

it seems it's nothing special.

Clark didn't respond. His mind was preoccupied with the mystery of whose baby Nyla was carrying, leaving him uninterested in Jordyn and Nathaniel's situation. "Let's go," he said.

...

Upon arriving downstairs at Jordyn's apartment, she hesitated before getting out. She noticed that Clark made no move to exit the car.

"Clark, do you have something else?" she asked.

"Mm, there's a meeting at the company," he replied.

"Alright. Will you be home for dinner tonight?" she inquired.

Clark frowned, his irritation evident. "If I come back, I'll call you in advance."

"Okay..." Jordyn replied.

After Jordyn got out of the car, Clark drove directly to the company.

By the time he arrived at the office, Michael was already waiting for him.

"Mr. Sumner, according to my investigation, it's highly likely that the baby Ms. Jayston is carrying is your uncle's..." Michael reported.

Clark's expression turned icy. Even

though he and Nyla were divorced, he had suspected an affair between her and Damon before their

sw nave

separation. This new revelation only confirmed his previous suspicions.
