HIS FIANCEE'S UNCLE IS MY ALIBI 73: THE HARD LAUNCH
ADRIAN'S POVThe car pulled up to the venue of the Costa Verde launch party.I almost changed my mind about attending the event until I heard that Matteo's father would be there. Vittorio Ferragamo. The chairman of Costa Verde himself. I wanted to meet him. That was the only reason I was here.Jocelyn sat beside me in the car. She was wearing a black gown that hugged her curves. Her hair was styled in French curls. Her makeup was flawless."You never invited me to professional events like this. Is there a reason for today?" she asked.I shrugged. "I felt like it." I turned to her and reached out to touch her cheeks. “Just stay with me and keep me company, then we can go back to my place later.” She raised an eyebrow and scoffed. “Just go straight to the point and tell me you're horny.” I leaned in to kiss her lips, but she flinched. “No, don't ruin my lipstick.” She kissed my cheek and pushed me back. “Let's go.” I groaned and stepped out of the car, offering my hand to help her o
HIS FIANCEE'S UNCLE IS MY ALIBI 72 : NO CONNECTION.
ELLIOT'S POVI sat across from Detective Daniels in the interrogation room. "Mr. Vane," he said. "I'd advise you to be honest with us and tell us the truth.” I shook my head. "I'm telling you the truth, I didn't kill her. It was my wedding day, and I left for my honeymoon the next morning. How could I have killed her?” “Can we confirm this with your wife? That you were with her the entire time?” “Yes.” I nodded confidently. He wrote down something, then looked up at me. "Mr. Vane. We have reason to believe you have a connection to the victim.""I don't.""Yes, you do.” He opened a file. "Delia Moore was arrested a few weeks ago for attacking Adrian Ashford. He dropped the charges, and she was released a few days later. She was reported missing and then found dead.” I leaned back into my chair. “What does that have to do with me? What if it was Adrian Ashford who killed her after dropping the charges or Nicole because she framed her initially?” I asked. “Why do you think I kill
HIS FIANCEE'S UNCLE IS MY ALIBI 71 : I KNOW THE TRUTH.
ADRIAN'S POV"Mr. Ashford. You wanted to see me?" Elliot spoke as he walked into my chair. I gestured to the chair across from my desk."Sit."He sat down and stared directly at me. "What's this about?"“I won't drag this anymore.” I pushed the document to him. “Sign it now while I'm being nice about it.”’His smile faltered. “No. I've told you before that I won't sign anything.” I leaned back in my chair. “Do you really want to go down this path with me?” “Yes.” His face hardened. “I respect you, but you have no right to force me into signing a prenup.” He snapped. “This is insulting.” I raised my brows. "Insulting?""Yes. You're treating me like a gold digger. Like I married your niece for her money. Like I'm not good enough for her."I didn't respond."I love her. I don't care about her money. I don't care about your family's wealth. I care about her."I leaned forward. "Then put your money where your mouth is. Sign the prenup."He shook his head. "No. I shouldn't have to prov
HIS FIANCEE'S UNCLE IS MY ALIBI 70 : HOSPITAL VISIT.
ADRIAN'S POVThe headache had been there for two days.A dull, persistent ache that settled behind my eyes and refused to leave. I had taken medication. I had tried to sleep it off. I had drunk enough water to drown a fish.Nothing worked.I sat in my office, pressing my fingers against my temples, trying to focus on the documents in front of me. The numbers blurred, and I couldn't concentrate. “I can't do this.” I groaned. I pressed on the intercom. “Marcus, I'm done for the day.” I picked up my keys and left. I was going to see my doctor.*****************The hospital was definitely not my favourite place but I couldn't neglect my health. I couldn't afford to fall sick or break down. I sat in the examination room, waiting for the doctor to arrive. It's the same doctor I've been using for years. He also got me transferred to him when I rushed in by an ambulance after the incident in the rain. He walked in. "Mr. Ashford." He sat down across from me. "What's going on?""I've h
HIS FIANCEE'S UNCLE IS MY ALIBI 69: DONE WITH YOU.
NICOLE'S POVMy exhaustion from the day had already been overwhelming. The articles. The meeting with Matteo and Kevin. The stress of not knowing if I was making the right decision.And now this ; Adrian Ashford, standing outside my apartment, insulting me.I felt the anger rise in my chest. "What are you doing here, Adrian?"He stepped closer. "I asked you a question.""And I don't have to answer it." I walked toward my door. "I'm tired. I don't have the energy to deal with you right now.""You don't have the energy?" He laughed. "You had the energy to go to an event with Matteo Ferragamo. You had the energy to smile for the cameras. You had the energy to let the whole world think you're sleeping with him."I stopped and turned. "Did you come all the way here just to insult me? To continue from where your niece stopped yesterday?"His jaw tightened. “What did Vivi do?” "She attacked me at the event. She called me a whore. She warned Matteo to stay away from me." I stepped toward hi
HIS FIANCEE'S UNCLE IS MY ALIBI 68 : THE CONFLICTED SCANDAL.
NICOLE'S POV "Hey guys.” Kevin appeared. “I'm so sorry I'm late, I had to take care of something urgent before coming. “He sat opposite me.” I smiled at him. “You made it just in time.” The rest of the party went on smoothly with fun and excitement. Matteo and Kevin made me feel comfortable. I was more surprised with Matteo's behaviour. He acted like we've known each other for a long time, and it was very easy to get along with him. Matteo taught me some basic Italian words."Say 'ciao.'""Ciao.""Good. Now say 'grazie.'""Grazie.""Perfect."He taught me a sentence."Say this to Kevin: 'Sei un grande idiota.'"I repeated it to Kevin, but I struggled with the accent. Matteo burst out laughing. I turned to him with a frown. “Did I say it wrong?” He shook his head and continued laughing. Kevin frowned at him. “I think he made you say an insulting word.”“What?” My eyes widened. "What does that mean?"Matteo laughed. "It means 'you are a big idiot.'"Kevin stared at him. "Seriou
