Trading My Ex for His Uncle by Hello Spring

Chapter 1132

Drake smiled faintly. "I want to marry Nyla."

Alexander scoffed. "Ambitious, aren't you?"

If Nyla successfully inherited the Nixons' legacy, Drake's status would soar as her husband.

Drake pulled out a chair and sat across from Alexander. "If I'm engaged to her, I can legitimately support her return to the Nixons. Don't you agree?"

He leaned forward. "I don't have lofty ambitions. I only want the MK Company. Once she's secured her position, we can annul the marriage anytime. This arrangement benefits you without costing you a thing."

Alexander tapped his fingers on the rim of his glass, considering Drake's proposal.

After a prolonged silence, he said, "MK could be yours, but I don't trust you."

"Mr. Kinsey, we can draw up a contract if trust is an issue. That way, if I break my word, you'll have legal recourse," Drake suggested.

Alexander didn't respond immediately. "Leave for now. I need to think it over."

He also needed to gauge Nyla's reaction to learning about her ties to the Nixons. This wasn't a decision he could make alone.

Drake's confidence grew as Alexander hadn't outright rejected him. "Alright. If you need anything, don't hesitate to reach out. We're on the same side here-I don't want anyone else in the Nixons gaining that power, either."
