Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

The sounds of fireworks jolted Damon, who was lying in the flower bed, awake. He slowly sat up, his clothes in disarray and scratches scattered across his chest. A look of shock crossed his face.

He recalled seeing Nyla before losing consciousness and couldn't resist hugging and kissing her.

The memory made his expression darken. He quickly straightened his clothes and picked up his phone to call Nyla, but despite numerous attempts, his calls went unanswered.

His frustration mounting, Damon immediately contacted Spencer to find out Nyla's whereabouts. After ending the call, he hurried outside to the villa.

The driver, already stationed at the entrance, saw Damon approaching and quickly came over. "Sir, are we heading back now?" Damon didn't answer. His face was grim as he got into the car.

The driver, unsure of what was happening, hesitated to make any decisions without instructions and waited in the driver's seat. Damon stared intently at his phone, his expression serious. When Spencer's call came through, he answered immediately. "Mr. Sumner, Ms. Jayston is on her way back to the city. We're not sure of her exact destination," Spencer reported. "Understood. Share her location with me in real-time," Damon instructed.

After ending the call, Damon coldly directed, "Head to the city."
