A beam of headlights cut through the front windshield, illuminating Theon's profile.

For a moment, Lena forgot to breathe.

The sharp line of his jaw.

The way his lips curved without him trying, and the light catching the edge of his cheekbone.

"Hmm?"

He pressed the accelerator.

She turned away, fast. And stared out the window.

“Uh… no.”

Theon glanced at her profile, then back at the road. He rolled the window down.

"Hold tight."

He paused.

"If you don't want to fasten your seatbelt."

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 174: A Place to Belong

    Theon didn't let go. His hands stayed cupping her face, gently pulling her back. “I don’t want to walk away again." His voice cracked. "I've tried and it’s not working." Lena's shoulders shook. "Theon…" "Just this once." His voice broke. "Let me be the one you lean on." Another tear slipped down her cheek. He caught it with his thumb. "I'm not asking you to choose me now," he whispered. "Nor am I asking you to forget him." He swallowed hard. "I'm just asking you to let someone be there for you." Lena stared at him as snow fell around them. "Why?" she whispered. "Why do you keep doing this?" Theon let out a shaky breath. "Because I can't stop." His forehead pressed against hers. “Because even when I try to hate you for making me feel this way… I can't." His eyes closed. “Because it's you, Lena. It's always been you." Lena's hands lifted slowly. They rested against his chest. "I'm scared," she admitted. "I'm so scared." "Of what?" "Of trusting and losing myself again.” Th

    Lena was frozen in place.Mrs. Adler turned to stare at him, her mouth hanging open in disbelief.The crowd immediately fell silent.Theon’s grip tightened around her wrist. His sharp gaze swept across the onlookers.“Nothing to see here,” he said coldly. “Move along.”No one moved.His expression darkened. “I said move.”The authority in his voice finally snapped the crowd out of their shock. They began dispersing, muttering among themselves.“Isn’t he a doctor?”“He looks too young.”“He’s wearing a white coat. He must be.”Mrs. Adler finally recovered from her stunned state. She tried to yank her arm free.“What do you think you’re doing?” she snapped. “Is this how you treat your aunt?”Theon’s gaze remained icy. “If you continue causing a disturbance, I’ll have security escort you out of this hospital.”Mrs. Adler scoffed. “It’s bad enough that you’re a spoiled, arrogant brat. Now you’re meddling in my family affairs?”“You attacked a patient inside this hospital.”His voice turne

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 172: Public Spectacle

    The woman who crouched slightly with a pale face stiffened and finally raised her head.Lena's suspicion was confirmed. It was indeed Stacy.One hand still protectively covered her stomach. The other clutched medical documents against her chest.For a moment neither of them spoke.Lena's eyes drifted downward. Toward the visible curve beneath Stacy's coat.A pregnant belly.Her blood ran cold.The hospital noises and the crowd faded. Everything blurred except the woman standing before her, and the memory of the divorce papers Rhys refused to sign.Stacy's face turned white. "L-Lena…"Lena's fingers trembled. Her gaze remained fixed on Stacy's stomach.A thousand thoughts crashed into her mind. A thousand possibilities and explanations. Yet only one remained. One terrifying possibility that refused to leave."Stacy..." Her voice came out barely above a whisper. "What are you doing here?"Stacy's lips parted, but no words came.The color drained from Lena's face.Suddenly she wasn’t sur

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 171: The Truth

    Neither of them moved for a long moment.The snow fell around them, settling on their shoulders, their hair, and the ground between them. Lena held his gaze, her breath fogging in the cold air.She finally couldn't hold it any longer, when the tremor in her chest became too much. "We should go inside," she whispered, turning her face away. "It's cold out here."Theon's hand curled at his side. He nodded, a faint smile touching his lips."After you then.”Lena glanced at him one last time before turning away.Theon followed behind.The distance between them wasn’t far. But neither of them knew how to cross it.—-The warmth of the hospital greeted them as they entered. The contrast made her skin prickle.Doctors and nurses hurried through the corridors. The waiting area seemed far busier than usual.Lena barely paid attention. She focused on walking.Unfortunately, Theon seemed determined to follow her.After several turns, Lena finally stopped and looked over her shoulder.“You…” her

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 170: Still You.

    Lena smiled to cover up her slipped composure. "Well… that took you long enough."Theon's intense gaze stayed on her. "I had good motivation."Lena could feel his gaze burning on her, but she refused to meet his eyes. So she busied herself with the napkins. "Is that so?""Hmm."The silence between them was charged. Heavy with everything unsaid.Leo's voice shattered it."Are you two going to set the table all night, or can we eat?"Lena turned to walk away.Theon's hands tightened on the plate he was holding.—-Dinner was lively and filled with laughter. The house felt warm, in contrast to the cold outside.Mrs. Chen joined them after being forced to sit down by Evelyn.Roman had personally requested an enormous seafood boil because Evelyn had spent the last week craving it.He sat beside her peeling crab shells and shrimp while she happily accepted the food.At some point the baby woke up. Immediately all attention shifted.“There he goes.”Mrs. Chen laughed.The tiny boy stretched

  • BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE    Chapter 169: The Reunion

    Theon held his breath.The world around him seemed to slow, the sounds of the room fading into a distant hum. He stood frozen, his eyes fixed on the woman in front of him.She was nothing like the person he remembered.Months ago, even though she had been weak and sick, she always had that sharp edge. Always wrapped in baggy clothes and filled with defiance. But now—something had shifted. She stood differently. In a more softer way. Her presence carried a quiet weight he hadn't noticed before.Her hair had grown past her shoulders, falling in soft waves that caught the light. It framed her face, highlighting features he had never taken the time to really see.His heart did something stupid."Hi."Her voice pulled him back. She was smiling.He couldn't speak. His mouth opened, but nothing came out.Roman's elbow dug into his ribs."Say something," Roman muttered.Theon blinked, then forced a smile."Hi." His voice came out rough. He raised his hand for a handshake.‘What am I doing?’H

    “Avery!!” Roman called again, his voice thick with emotions he didn’t even try to hide.Evelyn froze. Forgetting about her phobia for hospitals.This time, she heard it clearly. It wasn’t ‘Evelyn’ slurred. Not ‘Lyn’. It was ‘Avery,’ clear as day. A cold knot formed in her stomach. Her throat tighte

    “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
