Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Oliver stopped and looked at Nyla, his gaze a little dimmed.

After a few seconds, he sighed. "Nyla, I shouldn't have gotten angry with you... I'm sorry."

He had been upset about her arriving with Damon, but most of his anger had melted away the moment she held his hand.

Nyla gazed at him and said softly, "It was my fault. You have every right to be upset. I didn't consider your feelings."

Since she had agreed to be with Oliver, she knew she should keep her distance from other men, especially since she and Damon shared a past. It was only natural for Oliver to feel uneasy about their interactions. Oliver's gaze softened. "It's just a small matter. Let's move on. Shall we head inside?"

"Okay," Nyla replied.

As they entered the auction venue, Nyla finally felt the intense gaze on her back fade away.

Valarie, who was also attending the auction, saw Nyla and immediately approached her with a smile. "Nyla, you're here too!"

Nyla was pleasantly surprised to see her. "Yes, it's been so long since we last met."

Valarie pulled Nyla aside and playfully glanced at Oliver. "Mr. Raynor, I'm going to borrow Nyla for a while. You don't mind, do you?"
