Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)

Chapter 568

With that thought in mind, Erin looked at Aubrey Jane with growing eagerness. "Ms. Keith, are you here shopping?"

Aubrey Jane smiled, but her gaze was noticeably distant. "No, I'm here to meet a friend. Ms. Hulle, if there's nothing else, I have a meeting soon. Let's chat another time."

Seeing her about to leave, Erin quickly spoke up. "Ms. Keith, I heard that the Keithstone Group has a resort project, and the partnership hasn't been finalized yet- Aubrey Jane interrupted her with a polite smile, "Ms. Hulle, we just confirmed our partner for the project. I'm sorry. We'll work with the Hulle Group if there's a chance next time." Erin stood frozen for a few seconds, trying to process what she had just heard. "Ms. Keith, may I ask which company you're partnering with?"

A flash of displeasure crossed Aubrey Jane's expression. "I'm afraid that information is not convenient to share right now, Ms. Hulle. Goodbye."

Oncé Aubrey Jane disappeared from view, Erin quickly realized she needed to inform Damon about the

.news.

She pulled out her phone, ready to call him, but hesitated for a moment. Instead of making the call, she tucked her phone away and drove straight to Prospectus Technology to find him. When Damon saw her, surprise flickered in his eyes. "What brings you here?"

Erin placed a takeout container of soup on the table and said, "It's been a while since we last met, and I've given it some thought. Damon, I'm willing to accept your child, regardless of the past. What matters is our future ther." Damon paused, his pen stilling as he looked up at Erin, and frowned slightly. "Erin, I think you should reconsider."

Ever since he learned that Mason was his son, he had not thought about marriage at all.

Mason was still so young, and without a foundation of feelings between them, building a relationship would take time. If he continued with Erin, Mason would have to adjust to two strangers, which would be unfair to both Mason and Erin.

Erin's eyes were filled with determination. "Damon, I've thought it through clearly. I love you, and that won't change because of your child or anything else.

"I may not have experience with kids, but I'm willing to learn. I believe I can be a good mother. Besides, a child needs love, especially at such a young age. Silence filled the office as Damon remained quiet

Watching his handsome profile, Erin instinctively clenched her hands. She had already compromised so much. Did he still want to break their engagement? After a moment of silence, Erin realized that Damon still wasn't going to speak. It seemed he intended to

end their engagement. Thus, she decided to change the subject. "By the way, I wanted to tell you about something else today."

""What is it?" D

"What is it?" Damon asked.

"The Keithstone Group's resort project has already secured a partner," she informed him.

Surprise crossed Damon's face as he raised an eyebrow. "How do you know that?"

"I ran into Ms. Keith while I was out shopping. I was hoping to help you secure the opportunity, but as soon as I mentioned the resort project, she said they had already confirmed their partner, though it hasn't been publicly announced yet," Erin elaborated. Damon had indeed wanted to pursue that resort project-not just for profit, but to help establish a solid foothold for Prospectus Technology in the city.

However, after the situation with Mason and some issues with the amusement park project, he had temporarily set it aside.

"I understand. Thank you for letting me know," he replied.

Seeing Damon's lukewarm demeanor, Erin couldn't help but grit her teeth. "Damon, I won't keep you any Jonger. When you have time, bring that child over so we can meet. After all, if we're going to live together in the future, we need to build a bond in advance."
