Ava sighed hard as she reached for popcorn in the large bowl she was holding. Before her was the new large TV screen Ryan recently installed for her to watch whatever she pleased in the living room.

After that incident with Philip and the sudden death of his father, he strictly forbade her from returning to the company until he sorts things out by himself.

In the last couple of days, she has barely seen him. He always came home late and left before she could wake up.

As soon as the movie ended, she turned her head to the man on black standing at a distance away from her.

“Where is my husband?”

“He's out for work, ma'am. Don't worry.” The guard said softly with a small bow.

She groaned a little throwing her head back to the couch.

“How long does he intend to make me stay here? I'm getting fat just sitting at home and doing nothing all day.” She complained and turned her head back to the TV.

A new movie was about to start.

Not too long, she heard the servants greeting someone in

  • He Cheated on me, So I Became His Aunt!   CHAPTER 27_ Dark Figure

    There was a dark gaze on Ryan's face when he heard the bad news over the phone. He clenched one of his hands into a fist on his lap and the other hand gripped around the device still pressed against his ear. “I'm on my way.” His voice was low and deep. He tucked his phone away and took one last glance on the bed where Ava lay fast asleep. Ryan heaved a deep sigh and left the room finally. He hated to leave her all by herself after what transpired today but he had no other choice. A much bigger problem was hanging on his neck. “Get the car ready.” Ryan ordered one of the men lingering around the living room as he rushed down the stairs. One could see the anger and rage blasting out of his body.“Now!” He roared. ****Anna was busy pacing around the corridor. Her face glistened with sweat and her lips trembled uncontrollably. Eric was found unconscious in his study not too long and was immediately rushed to the hospital. She pressed her good hand to her mouth trying to muffle th

    Ryan raised his hand to the door and knocked on it softly. Next to him was a maid holding a tray of food. When he didn't get a response, he turned the knob and stepped in. His eyes swept the room in search of his angry wife. He finally found her curled up on the bed with the sheet over her head. A smile tugged on his lips. “Place it over there. You may leave.” Ryan ordered the maid. Soon the room consisted of only him and the lady curled up on the bed. He cleared his throat as he made his way to the bed. He took a seat and sighed hard. “Ava,” Her name rolled on his tongue. “Whatever I did today was very necessary. I didn't kill him but he would have killed you today if he had the chance.” “I don't want to talk to you.” Ava grumbled under the sheets. “Hmm. Then you've gotten yourself a new watchman for tonight.” Ava could make out his silhouette from under the sheets. She saw him inched closer to her, he raised his hand to touch her face but stopped and retracted his hand. “But

    All eyes fell on the tall figure walking in with a ton of men behind him, they all walked in sync. The customers in the flower shop gave way for them to pass through. The sweetness and fragrance in the flower shop dropped massively. All they could perceive in the air was danger.Ryan stopped in front of the counter, a man around his age flashed a warm smile at him. He had dirty blonde hair and bright hazel eyes. He had the perfect straight nose and lips. One look from him would weaken ladies on their knees. Yet Ryan's eyes on this man were deadly. “Ah, I think my flower shop is going to run out of flowers if you all order some.” He remarked grinning from ear to ear and finally laughed out to himself.Ryan met one of his men's gazes and gave a nod. Not too long, all customers were sent out and the 'closed' sign was turned over.Silence returned to the shop. All that lingered were eye contacts from all men against the florist. There was a hint of confusion locked away in his hazel e

    “Well, what do you expect, grandfather? I had no other choice than to involve him when uncle and his wife played such a game on my mother!” Matt roared. His veiny hands shook. He brought a finger close up to Eric's face. “Maybe you're just a weakling like mum said you are—”His words hadn't landed before a slap cut him short. Eric went further by raising his staff against his insolent grandson. “You are nothing but a fool! How dare you speak to me in that manner?!” The old man snapped, equally upset. He raised his staff again, ready to strike it at Matt but Agnes was quick to intervene. She was lost in their conversation, they both seemed to be talking about someone. “Please don't—”Eric moved his hand before Agnes could fully grasp his arm. He stared at her like she was filthy and dirty. “Don't touch me! It's clear that tits and clits are the only thing he's ever going to learn. Now I understand the reason your wife chose to end it all than to put up with a cow's dung like yo

    “Mum, it's going to be alright!” Matt said in a panic state. He watched the door of the ambulance driving off in a hurry. He turned around and began heading to his car. Agnes met him midway and joined him on the journey to the hospital. They were closely following behind the ambulance. “Once I get my hands on that bitch. I'm going to gorge out her eyes and send whatever remains back to my uncle!” Matt spat in anger. “I should have gotten rid of her a long time ago!” “Your mum must have launched an attack first. Guard dogs don't bite their master's enemy without foreseen threats—”“Not now! Don't try to defend her right now. I don't care about what mum tried to do to her. Did you see how mum was bleeding when we found her? And Mia sat there watching with interest as those dogs did that to her!”Agnes snapped her head to Matt the moment that she noticed the car was picking up speed that normal.“Matt I've put in a lot of thoughts on how I'd possibly die and dying in a ghastly accide
