Contract Marriage With My Ex's Hot Uncle Chapter 106: Starting afresh
***~CLAIRE~***A raging headache roused me awake the next day. It was morning already by the time I woke up. Sunlight struggled to shine through the grey curtains, and a car honked loudly as it drove past. I was tempted to remain in bed all day, but I have never been the kind of person to wallow in depression. I had to take charge of my life. Anita said something yesterday, about starting anew. That was what I planned to do. To forget about Christian and begin afresh. I forced myself out of bed and stumbled out of the room. A nice cup of coffee would give me the adrenaline boost I needed. I stepped into the living room and almost jumped out of my skin in shock. Tyler stood by the TV, holding a mug of coffee. I could smell it from where I stood. He noticed my presence and smiled. "Hello, Claire. Did you sleep well?"I was dumbfounded for a moment. "Tyler, when did you get here?""About an hour ago. I didn't want to wake you. You looked so peaceful."Too bad I didn't feel peace
Contract Marriage With My Ex's Hot Uncle Chapter 105: A distant memory
***~CLAIRE~***I cried throughout the flight to Milan. It lasted about eight hours. I lay curled up on the seat, hands wrapped around my body. My heart was wounded, and I doubted it would ever heal. I dozed off at some point, completely exhausted from crying. I only realized I slept off when Henry tapped me awake and told me the chef had prepared some food for me. I wasn't hungry. My appetite was gone, so I declined. Then he suggested I go into the sleeping area to be more comfortable, and that turned out to be a good idea. Hours later, I woke up feeling sore all over. I felt like I was going to be sick.I stepped out of the sleeping area and spotted the glittering airport of Milan beneath us. We had arrived. Grabbing Tyler's jacket and my phone, I quickly settled into a seat and fastened the seatbelt as the jet began to descend. Night had fallen already. The weather here was nice and warm. A limo was waiting to receive me after I alighted from the jet. Henry hung close, lea
Contract Marriage With My Ex's Hot Uncle Chapter 104: I've come to evict you
*** ~CHRISTIAN~ *** I stood watching the jet journey down the tarmac. The rain was heavier now, drenching me completely and blurring my vision. But I didn't look away. I didn't mind the cold. I waited, hoping the jet would stop, hoping Claire would change her mind and come back to me. I imagined her running into my arms. I would hold her and never let go. I would plead with her to give me a chance to make everything right, because I know I hurt her. But that didn't happen. The jet didn't stop. As it flew into the air, my heart shattered. It was too late. I lost her. I lost the only woman I loved. Eric came up beside me with an umbrella. I could see how Claire's departure affected him too. "What now, boss?" He asked. I didn't answer immediately. I stared at the jet until it disappeared from my line of sight. Then I lifted my hands and wiped the rain from my face. I only realized I was crying when I felt my eyes burn with tears. I slowly turned around and walked towards
Contract Marriage With My Ex's Hot Uncle Chapter 103: Goodbye, Claire
***~CLAIRE~***I opened my eyes when I felt Tyler rouse me awake. I didn't even know when I slept off. It was still raining, but it had thinned to a drizzle. The overhead roar of planes sounded muffled through the closed windows. "Where are we?" I asked as I sat up. "At the airport." Tyler said. "I asked one of my assistants to check if the weather is good enough for flying.""I don't even know what I'm doing." I sighed. "What do you mean?""I asked you to take me to the airport, yet I don't even have my flight tickets. I don't even have a destination.""It's okay, Claire. Don't get worked up over that." Tyler pulled me close, into a warm hug. "I have everything under control."I pulled back and looked at him. "What do you mean?""There's a private jet waiting for you." He explained. "It's mine, so don't worry about it. You'll be taken to Milan. My sister will be waiting for you when you arrive. She'll take you to my penthouse. You can stay there for as long as you want."I was
Contract Marriage With My Ex's Hot Uncle Chapter 102: The lies are enough
***~CLAIRE~***My body had gone numb. Completely numb. I couldn't feel anything. Tyler kept talking beside me, but I didn't hear a word. All I could think of was Christian, and how I had been used. I believed all his lies, how he loved me, how he couldn't wait for us to be a family. I believed him when he said he was done with Sloane. What a fool I was. "Claire," Tyler softly tapped my hand. "You've got to get yourself together. I know this hurts, but I promise you, everything will be fine."I slowly looked at him, my eyes stinging with unshed tears, my lips trembling. "How could I not know I wasn't pregnant?" I whispered. "I felt it. I felt pregnant. I felt something growing inside me. How, Tyler?"Tyler hesitated for a moment, unsure of how to answer me. "Just say it, whatever it is." I urged him. "It can't get worse than this.""Well, most times, the brain is easily fooled." He explained. "As long as Christian kept assuring you the baby was fine, your brain automatically ad
Contract Marriage With My Ex's Hot Uncle Chapter 101: Not Pregnant
*** ~CLAIRE *** I woke up to someone softly stroking my hand. My first thought was Christian. Then I remembered what I witnessed at the shore. My heart constricted again. There was no way it was him. I slowly opened my eyes and scanned my surroundings. The hospital room looked pristine, different from Connor's. The bed was larger and softer, and I was in a hospital gown. The air smelled like fresh flowers. I only noticed the bouquet of flowers beside me when I turned to the right. That was the floral scent I perceived. On my left, Tyler sat on an armchair. He leaned against the bed, one arm beneath his head, the other still caressing my hand. My heart went out to him. "Tyler?" I called in a raspy voice. He sat up so fast I feared he would get whiplash. "Oh, Claire, you got me worried." He leaned close, put his face close to mine and sighed. "You were unconscious for so long. I have never been this terrified." I smiled and touched his face. "I'm sorry." "No, you have
