I Married My Boyfriend’s Uncle

I had just arrived at the Fido family’s mansion when I saw Callum Fido. I did not expect to run into him.

He seemed to have just come back, and his friends from Central City surrounded him.

When they saw me, they laughed loudly and rudely.

“Moon, you’re seriously like a piece of gum that won’t come off. You’re always finding ways to run into Callum. And now you’ve even followed him to his house?

“Honestly, it’s embarrassing that the Sawyer family has a daughter like you. I don’t know how your parents even have the guts to show their faces in public.”

Callum looked at me with pure disgust. “You’ve followed me around for years with no shame and embarrassed me again and again. Now, you show up at my house? What do you want?”

“The Sawyer family is going to partner with the Fido family. Mr. Fido invited me to the party. I didn’t come here for you.”

“The Sawyer family is going to partner with the Fido family?!” Callum’s friends exclaimed in surprise.

Their reaction made sense. The partnership between the two families had not been made public yet.

My grandfather and Callum’s grandfather shared a bond forged in life-or-death situations. They had made a promise long ago. If the two families ever worked together, whoever married me would inherit the Fido family’s business.

Everyone knew I liked Callum, and my being at the Fido family’s party basically hinted that he would be the one to inherit the family business.

In a family as influential as the Fido family, inheriting the business was far from simple.

Callum’s friends gasped and quickly started congratulating him. “Congrats, Callum! Looks like you’re taking over the family business. You’re the future CEO now, haha!”

Callum looked smug, like he had finally gotten what he deserved, but he still stared at me with disdain and disgust. For the first time, he walked up to me and whispered, “I won’t make the same mistake I did in my past life. If you want to marry me, you’ll have to accept that I’ll still be with Ruby.

“You can have the title, but my love belongs to her.”

I was stunned and looked at Callum in surprise.

So… he was reborn, too.

I was just about to respond when I heard a soft voice behind me. “Moon.”

Ruby walked over slowly and feebly.

Her face was pale, and it made her seem even more sickly. Callum rushed to her. “Ruby, why did you come by yourself?”

She leaned into him. “Don’t blame Moon, Callum. I just caught a little cold.

“Today’s such an important day for both families. I couldn’t miss it. Don’t worry. I’m okay on my own.”

She made it sound like I did not care about her at all.

And just like I expected, Callum’s eyes turned fierce as he glared at me. “Ruby is your sister. She’s sick, and you left her to come here by herself?

“Moon, how can you be so heartless to her? You’re cruel!”

After shouting at me, he turned back to Ruby, and his whole expression softened. “Ruby, let’s get you some rest. I’ll have the maid bring you ginger tea.”

He put his arm around Ruby’s shoulders. When he walked past me, he stopped and said coldly, “You better think about what I just said. If not, don’t even dream about marrying into the Fido family.”
