BOUND TO My EX'S UNCLE Chapter 189: The Discovery.
Roman leaned back in his study chair, the glow from several monitors washing over his tired face. His gold-rimmed glasses rested low on his nose, the sleeves of his shirt were rolled above his elbows, and the top two buttons had long since been undone.Theon’s voice flowed through the laptop speakers.“If we reduce the compound ratio by zero point three percent, the binding agent should stabilize. The original formula was far too volatile.”Roman jotted down a few notes.“I came to the same conclusion. But the temperature threshold has to come down as well. The original lab had a controlled environment. We can’t recreate those conditions.”“We’ll compensate somewhere else.” Theon scribbled across the page in front of him. “I’ll run another trial with the revised formula and send everything over.”Roman closed his notebook. “Do that. We’re getting close.”The discussion continued for several more minutes as they compared data, challenged each other’s assumptions, and pieced together fr

Jessica stared at Evelyn, completely caught off guard.Her mouth opened, then closed again. The answer seemed to reach her lips before disappearing just as quickly.Then Evelyn's phone rang, shattering the silence. She glanced at the screen. It was Roman. “I’m sorry.”She rose from her seat and stepped into the hallway to answer it.Roman called to check whether they had arrived safely, how Noah was doing, whether the villa was comfortable, and if she had eaten. Evelyn answered each question, but part of her mind remained inside the drawing room, replaying Jessica’s reaction over and over.When she returned a few minutes later, Noah’s cries greeted her before she crossed the doorway.The nanny Jessica had assigned was pacing with him in her arms while Lena stood nearby, pulling ridiculous faces and puffing out her cheeks in a desperate attempt to distract him.Noah was having none of it.His tiny face had turned bright red, and his cries only grew louder.Evelyn laughed despite herse

Lena followed Caspian down a quiet hallway lined with portraits. Oil paintings of stern-faced ancestors watched them pass.He stopped in front of a large window overlooking the garden. The afternoon light streamed through the glass, casting long shadows across the polished wood.Caspian was quiet for a moment, then he turned to face her."I know you weren't really Theon's girlfriend," he said.Lena's stomach dropped. "I—"He waved Lena off. "I'm not angry. I've known since the beginning."Lena stared at him. "You did?"Caspian nodded. "Jessica and I know our son. He doesn't bring women home. Especially not women married to his cousin." He chuckled. "We knew something was off. But we also saw how he looked at you."Lena's throat constricted."And we saw how you looked at him." Caspian's gaze held hers. "Even if you were pretending, there was something real there. That's why we never said anything."Lena didn't know what to say. Her fingers curled against her palms."How do you feel abo
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

Still sniffling, Evelyn told him everything. Her father had strangled her, and he also demanded she restore the business relationship between their families. They'd also keep calling her ‘a whore’ the whole time for sleeping with "Nathan's uncle." The worst part was she couldn't even defend herself

**WARNING: MATURE CONTENT**The silk nightgown disappeared over her head in one fluid motion. Roman hooked his fingers into her lacey underwear and dragged it down her legs. His hands traced every inch of her skin as he slowly kissed his way down her body—her collarbone, the curve of her breasts, h
