Trading My Ex for His Uncle

The real estate agent was stunned when he heard Nyla's commission offer to sell a house. "Ms. Jayston, are you sure the house is in Karlinan?"

He was puzzled. If Nyla had a property in Karlinan, why did she need the one-bedroom apartment he had found for her in the old neighborhood? "Yes," she replied. "I'll give you the address and the code. Bring potential buyers to see it, and I'll give you 3-% of the sale price as commission."

Nyla knew that real estate agents typically took 1-3% of a property's sale price as commission. Given that the fully renovated house in Karlinan could fetch around 1.1- 1.2 million dollars, the agent stood to make a decent sum.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

"Ms. Jayston, I have a question. If you already have a place, why did you choose to live in the old neighborhood instead of Karlinan?"

Nyla didn't want to complicate matters, so she replied flatly, "It's not mine. It belongs to a friend."

"Oh, got it. Send me the address and code, and I'll take some photos to list the property tomorrow.

"Thanks."

After hanging up, Nyla found the property deed and sent the unit number and code to the agent, who responded with an "OK" emoji. Nyla then closed the chat.

Noticing that Valarie had updated her social media, Nyla clicked on it. It was a simple post with a black image and a caption: [Started with love, ended with heartbreak].

Nyla pursed her lips. After a few moments of thought, she called Valarie. After several attempts with no answer, she

started to worry. She then remembered that they had previously shared their locations via phone, so she quickly opened the location-

sharing app and saw that Valarie was at her family home. Relieved, she decided to change and go check on her.

Just as she stood up, Valarie called back.

nak up with Tom?

Nyla answered quickly. "Valarie, are you okay? Did you really break up with Tom?"

"Yes," Valarie replied, her voice thick with tears.

"Don't be sad. You always said that when the old goes, the new will come. It's not worth it to be upset over a jerk."

Valarie sniffled but sounded determined. "You're right. Being single again is great. Tomorrow, I'm going to the university to find a younger boyfriend." "I support you."

Valarie couldn't help but laugh at how serious Nyla sounded. "Okay, I'll bring him to meet you once I find

one.

They chatted for a while longer before hanging up.

Nyla put down her phone and sighed, feeling a mix of emotions. She and Valarie seemed to have a knack

for meeting jerks. She just hoped Valarie would move on quickly.

Nyla glanced at the property deed and the sparkling bracelet on her desk, then simply put them in a drawer and got ready for bed.

Thanks to the property's prime location in Karlinan, Nyla's house quickly attracted interest. It was sold for 70,000 dollars below market value. Once the contract was signed, the buyer promptly transferred the en

Nyla transferred the agreed commission to the agent, who was all smiles. "Ms. Jayston, if you or any of your friends ever need to sell another property, please let me know."

Back home, the first thing Nyla did was take out 10,000 dollars to hire a private detective to follow Jordyn.
