I Dumped My Cheating Fiancé and Married His Uncle

Navia Harrison stood outside the hotel room, her fingers trembling around her phone.An anonymous text message glowed on the screen.[Grand Hotel. Room 1001. Password: 123456.][There’s a surprise waiting for you.]At first, she had assumed it was some kind of prank.But something about it made her uneasy enough to come anyway.Tomorrow was her wedding day.Tonight, her fiancé had told her he was busy preparing a surprise for her.Now, standing in front of Room 1001, a strange chill crept up her spine.After a brief hesitation, she entered the password.The door unlocked with a soft click.Navia slowly pushed it open.The moment she stepped inside, her entire body froze.A man and woman were tangled together on the hotel bed.The woman beneath him was glamorous and heavily made up, her scarlet nails tracing lazy circles across his chest as she pouted.“Liam, you’re marrying Navia tomorrow. Why are you here with me tonight? Haven’t I suffered enough already?”At the mention of the wedd

“Enough!” Daniel Harrison roared. “Stop acting like a spoiled brat. Whether you want to or not, this wedding is happening!”Linda’s eyes sparkled with barely concealed satisfaction, though her voice sounded full of fake concern.“Dad, don’t be angry,” she said softly. “Maybe Navia’s just acting impulsively…”“And you’re still defending her?” Daniel snapped. “It’s because Evelyn spoiled her rotten growing up that she turned into such a useless disappointment! If she had even half your maturity and obedience, she wouldn’t be humiliating this family today!”Members of the Crawford family also began mocking her openly.“Come on, Miss Harrison. We’ll pretend we didn’t hear what you just said.”“If you still care about your family’s reputation, you’ll cooperate and finish the ceremony.”“You’re marrying into the Crawford family now. Stop acting like some untouchable princess.”“Keep making a scene and you’ll regret it.”Every gaze directed at Navia carried either contempt or ridicule, as th

A good match?Was that really how she was using the phrase?A quiet snort of laughter came from the driver’s seat.Jason couldn’t help himself.The moment he sensed the icy glare from the backseat, however, he immediately straightened up and focused on driving.Leonel’s dark eyes remained fixed on the woman in front of him.She looked like a fallen swan—soaked, exhausted, and miserable, wrapped only in his oversized coat.Yet her eyes still burned brightly.Like stars refusing to go out.One careless glance was enough to scorch their way straight into someone’s heart.Navia knew he was studying her carefully.Even so, she forced herself to meet his gaze without backing down.After a long silence, Leonel finally spoke again.“What you said…” His deep voice was calm and measured. “Does make some sense.”Navia’s eyes lit up instantly.“You mean…”Nervous anticipation flickered in her gaze.Leonel slowly extended his hand toward her.His fingers were long and elegant, his voice low and st

Navia hailed a cab and headed straight for the hospital where her mother was staying. Pushing open the hospital room door, she called softly, “Mom, I came to see you…” But before she could finish speaking, she froze. Someone unexpected was already inside the room. Navia’s expression instantly turned cold. “Linda? What are you doing here?” Linda was still wearing the bridesmaid dress from earlier that day. The moment she saw Navia, she hurriedly stood up, her eyes swollen red from crying. “Navia, everyone’s been looking for you since the wedding. I figured you might come visit Aunt Evelyn, so I stayed here waiting. Thank God you finally came…” Even after everything she had done— after sleeping with Navia’s fiancé— Linda still wore that innocent, pitiful expression flawlessly. It made Navia sick. In the past, Navia had genuinely sympathized with Linda. After all, being born out of an affair wasn’t her fault. The real person to blame had always been Daniel Harrison. But a

Navia didn't have the heart to say it outright.Watching Leonel finish scaling the fish, she cautiously reached out."Mr. Crawford, the scales are done, so next-""I know," Leonel replied calmly. "Remove the insides, right?"His deep voice sounded especially attractive in the warm kitchen lighting.The sleeves of his dress shirt were rolled up, exposing strong forearms, while the black gemstone cufflinks at his wrists reflected a subtle gleam.In his hand was an expensive Japanese chef's knife, long and razor-sharp.The image alone was enough to make anyone's heart skip.Unfortunately...The moment Leonel sliced neatly into the fish's stomach, dark green bile immediately started leaking out.Navia's breathing stopped for a second.Before Leonel could even react, she lunged forward and snatched the fish away, quickly rinsing the bitter liquid under running water.Then she looked at him carefully."Um... Mr. Crawford, the ingredients are basically ready now, so..." She forced out an awk
