Chapter 5

Penulis: Cherie
I looked at Callum in shock. I already knew how heartless he could be, but hearing him say this still shocked me.

When I did not respond, Callum thought I was too in love with him to fight back. He smiled smugly. “If you agree, I might do you a small favor. I’ll wear our wedding ring.”

He was acting all smug. He thought I would be so grateful for his offer that I would agree without hesitation.

The whispers of the crowd faded as everyone waited for me to speak.

I slowly stood up in front of everyone.

A deep voice called from across the garden, “What’s going on here?”

Everyone turned to look, and walking toward us was Louie and Callum’s uncle, Jaxon Fido.

When Jaxon saw me looking a mess, he quickly came over and asked with concern, “Are you okay?”

I nodded to signal I was fine.

Louie gave Callum a quick glance and frowned. It was clear he was not happy.

Everyone fell silent and waited for Louie to speak.

With both Louie and Jaxon present, it seemed like they were about to ann

  • I Married My Boyfriend’s Uncle   Chapter 10

    The wedding was grand.Jaxon had put so much effort into it.The road from my house to the Fido family’s mansion was filled with big signs celebrating our wedding. Above the river, a huge drone show lit up the sky. The drones created an image of our wedding photo. All the major news channels in the city were talking about our wedding.I was wearing the wedding dress Jaxon designed himself. He had just given me a sweet candy, and the taste made me feel warm and happy.In my past life, Callum had stabbed me on our wedding day. Even though I almost died, I still chose to marry him and ended up dead and heartbroken.In this life, I just wanted a peaceful wedding with Jaxon.Right before the car entered the Fido family’s mansion, it suddenly stopped. The driver shouted, “It’s Mr. Callum! He’s here to stop the wedding!”Callum smashed the car window.“Moon, come with me! Today should’ve been our wedding!” He looked at me with hopeful eyes. He was even wearing the same suit he wore in

  • I Married My Boyfriend’s Uncle   Chapter 9

    Just like what the maid said, Callum showed up at the front door with bodyguards and piles of gifts.How did he even manage to slip away from the doctor?Before I could say a word, Ruby ran straight to him and threw her arms around him. “Callum, are you here to propose to me?“We can finally be together! I’m so happy!”But Callum shoved her away without hesitation. She was not expecting it and stumbled back.He did not even glance at her. He walked straight over to me, looked at me lovingly, and said, “Moon, I’m here to ask you to marry me. Please, will you be my wife?”He dropped to one knee and held out a ring.All I felt was disgust. When he did not have me, he begged. When he did, he hurt me. There was no way I would fall for that again.I looked at him coldly and said, “Callum, aren’t you confused? Wasn’t it Ruby the one you loved and wanted to marry?”Callum quickly shook his head. “No, Moon. Please, let me explain. You’re the only one I’ve ever truly loved. No one else e

  • I Married My Boyfriend’s Uncle   Chapter 8

    I looked at him in surprise. “Why would you think I wouldn’t want to marry you?”He sighed and explained, “Back at the press conference, when Callum was taken away, your eyes were teary. Some rumors aren’t just rumors.“Moon, whatever choice you make, I’ll respect it. I don’t want you to feel pressured, and I don’t want you to be unhappy.”His words hit me harder than I expected. I thought no one had noticed my tears that day, but Jaxon had seen them.For him to say he only wanted me to be happy showed just how deeply he must love me.I took a deep breath, then reached for his hand. “You misunderstood. I wasn’t crying because of Callum. I was crying because of you.”“Because of me?” Jaxon was surprised.I nodded. “Yes.”“Why?” he asked, still confused.“Because I had this long dream. In the dream, I married Callum, but I ended up unhappy and dying. After I died, I realized that the one who truly loved me was you.“Jaxon, I want to marry you. Not just because of the dream, but

    Callum did not have his usual arrogant attitude. Instead, his voice was full of desperation. “Dad, please take back the engagement. Uncle Jaxon can’t marry Moon.”Seeing Callum cause a scene and embarrass the Fido family in front of the reporters, Louie quickly stepped in. “Callum’s not well. He’s not thinking clearly. Get him to a doctor.”But Callum would not leave. “Dad, Moon and I have been in love for years! Everyone in Central City knows that. You can’t let Uncle Jaxon marry her!”Louie’s brow furrowed. He had heard the rumors, and he had noticed how I had acted in the past.He turned to me. “Moon, what do you have to say about this?”I stood up and spoke clearly in front of the whole Fido family and the media. “Callum and I grew up together. I’ve always seen him as a brother. Maybe some gossip made people misunderstand, but the truth is, I’ve always liked Jaxon. He’s the one I want to marry.“And the person Callum has been dating for years is my sister, Ruby, not me.”As s

    Even from the garden outside, I could feel how quiet and tense it suddenly got. Everyone was shocked.They stood there with their mouths half open. They looked at each other and wondered if they had misheard it.How could I have ended up with Jaxon?When Callum heard that I was going to engage with Jaxon, he was shocked. He said, “Dad, did you say the wrong name?”“Huh?” Louie stayed calm and replied, “Do I sound confused to you? I know exactly what I said.”Then he looked at me, and his expression softened. “Moon, did I get anything wrong?”Before I could speak, Callum rushed up. He did not care how bad it made the Fido family look and asked, “You’re kidding, right? Dad, this is some kind of show, right?”He turned to me, grabbed my shoulders, and stared at me. “Moon, you’re doing this to mess with me, right? You’re not really with Uncle Jaxon. You love me! There’s no way you’d choose him over me.”I knew he did not care about me. He did care about the position of the Fido fami

    Ruby looked guilty. She quickly hid behind Callum, mustered her courage, and said, “It was Callum who gave it to me!”“You’re lying! This pendant was a gift from Dad and Mom when I was born. They got it from the church themselves! I’ve always kept it under my pillow. You stole it!”I stepped up and grabbed Ruby, but Callum suddenly slapped me across the face. “Moon, stop it! You’re acting crazy!”He pointed at me with disgust. “Stop acting like a lunatic. Ruby is your sister. She would never steal your silly pendant.“And anyway, whatever Ruby wants, I give her. She wouldn’t need to steal anything from you.“I gave this pendant to Ruby.”The slap made my ears ring, and for a moment, I felt dizzy.I had shown Callum that pendant before, so he knew how important it was to me.But he was lying to protect Ruby and even had the nerve to hit me. Our friends and family were gathering to watch the scene unfold.I felt more disappointed than angry. “Callum, you’ve lost all sense of righ

  • I Married My Boyfriend’s Uncle   Chapter 3

    Ruby waited for my response with a smug look.If it were not for the agreement I had with Louie Fido, Callum’s dad, I would have embarrassed Callum on the spot.But I did not feel like arguing. I simply turned around and left.On the way back, Ruby actually asked to come with me.Without Callum around, she dropped the sweet act. Looking down at me like she had already won, she said, “So what if you end up marrying Callum? If you don’t have his heart, you’ll always be someone people can step all over.”She was not wrong. In my past life, I was a pitiful person whom people could step all over.Meanwhile, my dad arranged a wedding between her and his friend’s son, and she lived a life far better than mine.In this life, I was really curious to see how things worked out between her and Callum.I looked at her sincerely and said, “Then I truly hope you get what you want and marry Callum.”Her proud little smirk froze right on her face. For a second, she did not know how to respond.

    The party was already halfway through when Callum finally showed up with Ruby.Ruby, who had looked pale just now, had regained a rosy glow to her cheeks, and Callum looked pretty satisfied.As soon as the guests noticed them, their eyes quickly shifted to me. They were waiting for some drama.If this had been the old me, I probably would have gotten jealous and made a scene.But after living through everything once again, all I wanted was to enjoy my tea. Honestly, it was pretty good tea.Callum pulled Ruby into his arms and got ready to shield her. He shot me a look, all tense and defensive.But what caught him off guard was me calmly sipping my tea, like none of this had anything to do with me.At first, his eyebrows drew together in disbelief, but then something just clicked, and he eased up. He smirked and said, “Moon, I see you finally came around to what I said earlier.“This is how it should be. If you want to marry into the Fido family and be my wife, you need to know y
