บททั้งหมดของ Your Uncle’s My Husband Now—Back Off, Ex!: บทที่ 331 - บทที่ 340

Nyla glanced at the invitation in Gabriel's hand. She hadn't bought a birthday gift yet, so attending the jewelry auction could be a nice alternative.However, she didn't want to feel obligated to him."No, thanks. I'm not interested," she declined.Gabriel looked a bit helpless. "Nyla, are you still upset about what happened with your dad?"Nyla met his gaze calmly. "This is between me and him. It has nothing to do with you."Gabriel seemed hurt by her response. "But we're family!""To your mom, I've never been considered part of the family. In her eyes, the three of you are the family," Nyla retorted."She's her, and I'm me! To me, you are family," Gabriel insisted, his expression earnest and passionate.Nyla paused before replying, "But we're not destined to be a family."The hallway fell into a heavy silence, their breathing the only sound breaking it.Gabriel's emotions flickered in his eyes. He seemed on the verge of saying something but then composed himself.As if no

There was a brief pause on the other end before Cyrus' cold voice cut through the silence. "You'd better not fall into my hands, or I'll make sure you wish you were dead."He hung up immediately after that.Nyla took a deep breath to steady her anger and frustration, vowing that she would get another chance to catch him.After changing her clothes, she grabbed her bag and headed out. As she approached the elevator, the doors slid open. She hesitated for a moment when she saw the two people inside.Rebecca, dressed in a white dress, was clinging to Damon's arm, her face bright with a smile. When she saw Nyla, she subconsciously tightened her grip on Damon's arm, and her smile faltered slightly."Ms. Jayston, what a coincidence!" Rebecca greeted, her voice tinged with forced cheerfulness.Nyla considered pretending she hadn't seen them but decided to acknowledge them with a curt nod. "Mm."Damon's gaze briefly skimmed over Nyla's face with indifference, as if she were a stranger

Gabriel contacted the head of the R&D department at a rival company, smiling as he said, "Mr. Palfrey, I have some details about Prospectus Technology's experimental research. Would you be interested?"…As soon as Nyla arrived at the office the next morning, Melody excitedly shared the details of her dinner with Gabriel from the previous night. "Nyla, he's so gentle and handsome. After last night, I think I like him even more!"Seeing Melody's flushed cheeks and lovestruck expression, Nyla couldn't help but smile. "Take it slow. You've only had one dinner, and you're already so excited.""You're right. But I'll keep trying and aim to win him over soon, so I can become your sister-in-law!" Melody gushed.Nyla's smile brightened. "Go for it. I believe in you!"Just then, the office door opened, and Gabriel walked in, smiling."What are you two so happy about?" he asked.Melody's cheeks flushed again at the sight of him. She shook her head quickly. "Nothing. We need to start the

Nyla glanced away, her expression neutral, and lowered her gaze without saying anything.Valarie, sounding somewhat aggrieved, remarked, "I really don't understand what Damon sees in her. She dumped him years ago, and now he's getting back with her? It's like he's begging for humiliation!"Upon thinking about how Damon had left Nyla for Rebecca, Valarie's irritation flared."Enough about him. The auction's about to start, and you don't want to miss out on the jewelry you're interested in," Nyla reminded her."No worries. The piece I want is the final item," Valarie replied.While they spoke, Jordyn, who sat diagonally behind them, watched with barely concealed resentment. She placed a hand on her lower abdomen and frowned. "Clark, my stomach hurts a bit. I'm going to the restroom."Clark's impatience flickered in his eyes. "What's the matter? The auction is about to begin."Jordyn, who had never been to such an event before, noticed that everyone was dressed casually, and it wou

Damon remained indifferent, showing no sign that he had heard Rebecca or intended to respond.Rebecca's smile faltered slightly, her nails digging into her palm. After a few seconds, she managed to compose herself and looked away casually.Soon after, Damon bought several more sets of jewelry, drawing even more envious glances from onlookers toward Rebecca.Valarie, seated at the back, felt a wave of nausea. She couldn't believe that Damon was buying so much jewelry for Rebecca.When he had been with Nyla, he had never given her anything. Valarie felt a deep sense of injustice on Nyla's behalf.Beside her, Nyla remained composed, showing no sign of emotion.…After more than half an hour, the time had finally come for the centerpiece of the auction—"The Lone Tear".As soon as the cover was lifted, a collective gasp rippled through the crowd.The jewelry was even more breathtaking up close than in the photographs.The centerpiece was a massive diamond necklace with a main ston
