Roman stiffened, surprised by her sudden question.

For a moment, silence settled between them.

He cleared his throat lightly.

“When my elder brother was forced out of the Sinclair family,” he said at last, “my father had no one he could trust to steady the company. So he brought me back.”

His gaze lowered briefly.

“I had to leave my field and study business while working under him. Eventually… I took over as the CEO.”

Evelyn listened without interrupting.

The explanation made sense.

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 186: The Invitation

    The morning sun spilled through the villa's wide windows, casting golden rectangles across the cool terracotta floors. Evelyn stood on the terrace, Noah cradled against her shoulder, watching the waves roll in below.Lena appeared beside her, a cup of coffee in hand. "You're up early.""Couldn't sleep." Evelyn shifted Noah to her other arm. "He was hungry, and then I couldn't stop watching the sunrise."Lena took a sip of her coffee, looking toward the horizon. "It's beautiful here."Evelyn smiled. "Come on. Let's take him to the beach."—The beach was a short walk from the villa, a crescent of golden sand tucked between rocky cliffs. The water was clear and calm, lapping gently at the shore.Evelyn spread a large blanket on the sand and settled Noah on it, his tiny legs kicking in the air. He stared up at the sky with wide, curious eyes, his small fists opening and closing.Lena sat beside her, watching the baby explore the world with innocent wonder. "He's so calm today.""He's bee

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 185: Arrival

    The Aurelion jet descended through a layer of thin clouds, revealing the coastline of Olyndria below. The sea glittered under the afternoon sun, its surface rippling with shades of deep blue and turquoise. White buildings stretched along the shoreline, climbing gently into emerald hills where rows of villas overlooked the ocean. From above, the entire country looked like a painting.Evelyn leaned closer to the window, unable to hide the smile that spread across her face. "It's beautiful," she murmured. "I didn't get to see it properly last time."Lena stretched in her seat, rolling her shoulders. "You were a bit preoccupied. What happened? Something about Alexander collapsing?"Evelyn let out a helpless groan. "Don't remind me. That trip was supposed to be relaxing, and it turned into something else." She paused, her gaze distant. "We had to leave so quickly. I barely got to see anything that night.""Well, this time there's no drama." Lena paused. "At least, not yet."Evelyn shot he

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 184: Beneath the Surface

    Roman sat behind his desk, the glow of several monitors washing the office in a pale blue light. His sleeves were rolled to his forearms, and a cup of coffee sat forgotten beside the keyboard, long gone cold.His phone rested against a stack of documents, the screen occupied by Theon’s face“I still don’t understand why you’re making this so complicated,” Theon said, rubbing between his brows. Several reports and laboratory samples littered the desk behind him. “You created the virus. You created the antidote. Just tell me the formula.”Roman leaned back in his chair, his fingers pressing against his temple."It's not that simple. The original formula was destroyed when I burned the lab. What I remember is fragmented. I can give you the framework, but you'll have to fill in the gaps.""Fragmented?" Theon's brows shot up. "You designed the damn thing from scratch. How is it fragmented?""Because I didn't write it down." Roman's voice was flat. "I kept it in my head. And my head hasn't

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 183: The Cracks Begin

    Three months had passed since the first snow blanketed the city, and winter had finally begun loosening its grip. The frozen ground slowly gave way to the first signs of spring, making the season feel lighter and warmer.For Lena and Evelyn, the timing of their getaway couldn’t have been more perfect.“Welcome aboard, ladies.”Captain Laurent greeted them with a warm, professional smile as they stepped into the spacious cabin of the Aurelion private jet.“It’s a beautiful day to fly. I trust you’ll have a relaxing trip.”“Thank you, Captain,” Lena replied, settling comfortably into one of the plush leather seats.With a courteous nod, the captain excused himself and disappeared into the cockpit to complete the final pre-flight checks.Moments later, Mrs. Chen stepped aboard, carefully pushing Noah’s sleek travel crib ahead of her. The little boy slept soundly inside, completely oblivious to the gentle hum of the aircraft preparing for departure. Without disturbing him, she quietly whe

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 182: Letting Go

    Rhys’s jaw tightened until the muscles in his face began to ache.Despite the bruises scattered across his body, he forced himself upright and looked Theon straight in the eye. The swelling around one side of his face had already darkened into an ugly bruise, making him appear far more miserable than he had a few hours ago.“You know…” His voice was hoarse. “I can have you arrested for assault.”Theon didn’t even blink. The corner of his lips lifted into a faint smile. “Can you?”He walked closer without the slightest hint of hesitation, stopping only an arm’s length away. “Where’s your proof?”Rhys remained silent.Theon reached out and dusted an imaginary speck of dirt from Rhys’s already wrinkled shirt before patting his shoulder.“You of all people should know how important evidence is.” His smile widened. “You’re a lawyer, Rhys. You can’t accuse someone based on suspicion or because we happened to have an unpleasant conversation.”The room fell silent.Rhys stared at him for seve

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 181: An Uninvited Visitor

    The underground parking garage was almost silent except for the distant hum of ventilation fans and the occasional drip of melting snow from the ceiling.A sleek black car sat tucked inside one of the darker corners, its engine long since turned off.Inside, a man rested both hands on the steering wheel, his gaze fixed on the private elevator leading to the penthouse above.He glanced at his watch. “You’re late,” he whispered.Outside, snow continued to fall, coating the city in white. Every now and then another vehicle entered the garage, but none belonged to the person he was waiting for.Finally, bright headlights swept across the concrete walls.The familiar silver sedan rolled into its reserved parking space before coming to a smooth stop.The man inside the black car straightened. His gloved fingers reached for the black mask resting on the passenger seat.Within seconds, it concealed the lower half of his face. A dark cap followed, pulled low enough to shadow his eyes and hair.

    “ROMAN!” Evelyn cried out, her voice cracking with fear.Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Hartwell rushed into the kitchen the moment they heard her scream.“Oh my God!”Mrs. Chen’s face drained of color as she saw Roman on the floor. She spun to Mrs. Hartwell immediately.“Quickly—call an ambulance!”Then she d

    Lena was lounging on her bed, munching on a bag of chips, when her phone buzzed. She glanced at the caller ID and frowned. She really didn’t want to answer. But she had no choice."Hi, Dad.""Hey, you little rascal, did you go on that date I arranged with the young man from the Adler family?"Lena

    Evelyn blinked hard, swallowing as she slowly shifted to the other side of the bed."Erhm... nothing."Roman dropped the towel he'd been using to dry his hair and immediately caught her ankle, keeping her still. In one swift motion, he yanked her back toward him."Ah—" she let out a soft yelp, feel

He trembled, his body instant
