Trading My Ex for His Uncle (Nyla)

Chapter 39

Nyla ensured she accounted for everything and reclaimed every penny.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Nyla was surprised to find it empty except for them.

"You booked the whole place?" Nyka a

asked.

"Yes, I know you don't like crowded places," Clark replied.

used to it now. You don't have to go through so much trouble."

Clark looked at Nyla sincerely. "Nyla, we missed out on a lot because I was so busy before. From now on, I'll make sure to give you all the special moments you deserve. His gaze was filled with the same love and tenderness as when they were first in love.

Nyla's heart ached, and she turned away, holding back her tears.

If he had said this before he cheated, she might have been moved, but it only felt bitter now. From the moment he cheated, there was no going back.

Seeing Nyla's silence, Clark reached out to hold her hand, but she pulled away. Disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Nyla, we'll take it slow until the day you can forgive me."

Nyla looked at him. "We'll see."

She knew that day would never come.

During dinner, Clark tried to make conversation, but Nyla's responses were indifferent. Noticing her lack of interest, he felt a pang of sadness but knew he had no right to expect her to treat him as she used to. Nyla, however, wasn't going to let Clark ruin her meal. The steak at this restaurant was excellent, and she didn't want to waste such good food because of him.

After dinner, Clark drove her home. When they arrived, he called out to her just as she was about to get out of the car.

"What's up?"

"I have a gift for you."

He handed her a property deed.

"The apartment you're renting is in an old neighborhood and not very safe. I bought you a place near your office. You can move in whenever you like. It'll be more convenient for work." Nyla looked at the property deed, surprised. "I'm fine where I am.”

"No problem. I bought it for you, and you can move in whenever you want."

Nyla nodded and took the deed. "Okay, thank you."

Clark looked at her with a hint of helplessness. "Nyla, we're married. This is what I should do."

Nyla didn't respond to that. Instead, she told him, "It's getting late. I have some experimental data to upload. Take care on your way back."

"Sure. Don't overwork yourself."

"Got it."

After getting out of the car, Nyla walked toward the building.

Clark kept his car parked by the roadside, hoping she would look back. She didn't, even as her figure disappeared from sight.

Clark remembered their university days when they were dating. He would walk Nyla to her dorm every night, and they would linger downstairs, reluctant to part until it was close to curfew. After they got married, However, she was giving him a chance now, and he believed they would eventually reconcile.

Back home, Nyla placed the diamond bracelet next to the property deed and pulled out her phone to make a call.
