Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off, Ex! novel Chapter 157

**Through Unseen Doors We Step Into Untold Worlds Beyond by Sage Hunter Lane 157**

Clark’s expression darkened instantly, a storm brewing behind his eyes. “Why are you only discovering this now?!” he exclaimed, his voice laced with frustration.

Michael, adopting an air of feigned innocence, responded, “Mr. Sumner, I intended to investigate this sooner, but you advised against it. It was only after I encountered Ms. Weir’s parents at the hospital last night while visiting a friend that I decided to delve into it again.”

As the weight of his anger began to settle, Clark realized he might have overreacted. He inhaled deeply, attempting to regain his composure. “From this point forward, ensure that you investigate these matters with utmost urgency!” he commanded, his tone firm yet tinged with a hint of concern.

“Understood,” Michael replied, his voice steady.

Just as Clark was about to end the call, a troubling thought struck him. Nyla had left with Damon earlier, and he felt a surge of protectiveness. He added with a sharp edge to his voice, “Find out where Nyla and my uncle are right now.”

Michael quickly set about confirming their whereabouts.

After receiving the information that Damon had dropped Nyla off at her apartment before leaving, Clark felt a tumult of emotions wash over him—relief mingled with guilt. He had unjustly accused Nyla and confined her in the basement for an entire day, a decision that now haunted him.

After a brief moment of contemplation, he resolved to give Nyla a few days to cool off before he would attempt an apology and persuade her to return.

But then, a grim realization crossed his mind, darkening his mood once more. He immediately reached out to Michael, urgency lacing his voice, to ensure that the kidney donation was reserved for Harrison.

“Mr. Sumner, Jordyn’s father underwent surgery yesterday,” Michael informed him, his tone neutral.

Clark’s grip on the phone tightened, a wave of dread washing over him as he took a long, measured breath before responding. “Continue the search for another kidney. It needs to be located swiftly, and Nyla must remain oblivious to this situation.”

The thought of Nyla discovering that he had allocated a kidney to Jordyn’s father sent a chill down his spine; he knew she would never forgive him for such a betrayal.

After ending the call, Clark took a moment to gather his thoughts before driving out into the night.

Upon his arrival, he found Jordyn in the kitchen, stirring a pot of soup. Her eyes lit up in surprise at his unexpected presence. “Clarko, what brings you here?” she asked, her voice warm.
