Chapter 532
Trading My Ex for His Uncle
Spencer: [Ms. Kinsey, Luca just told me you have a child.]
Nyla stared blankly at the message for several minutes before finally replying.
Nyla: [Location.]
After ensuring Mason was asleep around 9:00 p.m., Nyla asked Pauline to stay with him before getting dressed to go out.
âMs. Kinsey, where are you going so late?â Pauline asked.
âI have some things to handle at the lab. Iâll try to be back before midnight,â Nyla replied.
Pauline nodded. âOkay, just bec By the time Nyla arrived at the agreedâupon location with Spencer, it was close to 10:00 p.m.

Entering the restaurant, she spotted Spencer waving at her. Her expression hardened as she walked over to sit across from him.
âMr. Hogg, Iâm here. You can tell me what you want now,â she said directly.
Spencer was taken aback by the Nyla before himâso different from five years ago.
While her features hadnât changed much, she now radiated confidence and composure. Dressed in a luxury tailored suit and silk blouse, she exuded fem âMs. Jay- Ms. Kinsey, youâve changed a lot,â he remarked.
Leaning back, Nyla looked at him coldly. âI didnât come here to catch up.â
After a brief silence, Spencer spoke softly. âAbout your child⦠Mr. Sumner-â
Nyla cut him off., âYou can rest assured, he has nothing to do with Damon. Besides, Damon has lost his memory and has a fiancee now. I have no interest in being a mistress.â
Under the table, her hands clenched tightly. She couldnât let Spencer discover the truth about Masonâs connection to Damon.
Spencer didnât relax. Instead, he leaned in, his expression probing. âThen the childâ¦â
âMr. Hogg, just know my child has no connection to Damon. As for who the biological father is, I donât see why I should tell you,â Nyla said matterâofâ
factly.
Upon meeting her impatient gaze, Spencerâs eyes flickered with regret. âI apologize, I overstepped.â
Nyla brushed it off. âIf you came all the way to Capitarnia just for this, I donât think it was necessary to do so in person.â
After a few moments of silence, Spencer sighed. âMs. Kinsey, do you really have no feelings left for Mr. Sumner?â
He fixed his gaze on her, searching for any hint of emotion.
Nyla let out a soft laugh. âDo I look like someone who still has feelings for him? Besides, I have a boyfriend now.â
âAh⦠I understand,â Spencer replied.
âMr. Hogg, since weâre meeting today, letâs clear everything up once and for all. I never intended to be with Damon five years ago, and now that heâs lost âI hope you can treat it as if nothing ever happened between us and that we donât know each other, just like everyone else,â she said.
Surprise flickered in Spencerâs eyes. âMs. Kinsey, donât you want to know what happened to the people who kidnapped you back then?â
âMy friend told me. They got the punishment they deserved,â Nyla replied calmly.
Her demeanor made it clear she no longer wanted any connection to the people from Saintornia. After a brief pause, Spencer spoke slowly. âAt the time⦠Mr. Sumner avenged you. Afterward, he became very withdrawn, focusing solely on work, eating, and sleeping. Within three months, he was hospitalized several times.
âMr. Richard was worried that if he kept going like that, he wouldnât be able to handle it, so-â
âMr. Hogg,â Nyla interrupted. âHis matters have nothing to do with me. You donât need to tell me any of this. I think Iâve made my position clear. I wonât approach him again, and I want the past to be treated as if it never happened. I hope you can keep this confidential. Goodbye.â
