Chapter 559
Trading My Ex for His Uncle
The Raynor Group would suffer some losses in the short term, but their foundation would remain intact. Damon stood up and, as he walked out, said, âMr. Raynor, many people are hoping to see the regret it!â
With that, he pushed past Oliver and Nyla and left.
Oliver turned to Nyla, his gaze softening. âNyla, itâs okay now. Letâs take Buddy home.â
Nyla didnât move, her eyes locked onto him. âOliver, what did you do to Prospectus Technology?â
She had clearly heard Damonâs words. Oliver had convinced Damon to stop obstructing her from taking Mason away, but it was evident that the Raynor Group had paid a price for it.
Oliverâs expression remained calm. âDonât worry. I know what Iâm doing. It wonât impact the Raynor Group too much. My dad once told me that if I let the Raynor Group fall, heâd kick my ass, so I wonât act recklessly.â
Realizing he was just trying to comfort her, Nyla bit her lip and refrained from pressing further.â
She understood Oliverâhe wouldnât share what he didnât want to discuss, no matter how many times she asked.
Squatting down to Masonâs level, she wiped the tears from his eyes. âBuddy, letâs go home. Mommy will take you home.â
Buddy nodded, sniffling. âMommy, my backpack is still in the room.â
âUncle Oliver will go get it for you,â Oliver said.
After he retrieved the backpack, they left together.
Damon stared coldly at the documents in his hands in the backseat of the Maybach as Spencer reported on the current situation.
âMr. Sumner, the Raynor Group suddenly intervened in the amusement park project. Now itâs stuck at the final approval stage, and theyâre not giving me a chance to meet. Every time I reach out, they say theyâre either abroad or on a business trip,â he said.
It was clear that this was just an excuse.
Damonâs expression remained calm, but the knuckles gripping the documents turned white, revealing just how angry he was.
âSchedule a meeting with Mr. Groover,â he ordered.
Timothy Groover was the liaison for a previous collaboration between Prospectus Technology and the government.
Spencer paused, suddenly recalling that Timothy had a relative working in the relevant assessment department.
âGot it, Iâll do it now!â he said.
After setting up the meeting with Timothy, Spencer was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Damon shot him a cold glance.
âHow did Buddy end up running out today?â Damon asked.
Sweat broke out on Spencerâs palms. âI⦠Iâm not sure. I just got a call from my assistant about an issue with the amusement park project, and I didnât pay attention.â
âSpencer, youâve been with me for years. I wonât tolerate this again. If it happens once more, resign,â Damon said.
you ou can Under Damonâs piercing gaze, Spencer realized that any attempt to defend himself would be futile. He looked down and fell silent. 1 As Damon returned to the documents, his mind drifted to another matter.
With everything going onâmanaging the amusement park project and dealing with the Raynor Groupâhe hadnât had time to spend with Mason.
He decided to let Nyla stay with Mason a little longer. Once the amusement park project was on track and Oliver was too busy to assist her, he would take Mason away from her.
At that point, she wouldnât stand a chance without Oliverâs help!
After dropping Nyla and Mason off at home, Oliver hurriedly left.
Back in the familiar surroundings of home, Mason began to calm down, but he still remained close to Nyla, a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
