Married My Ex's Billionaire Uncle Accidentally Chapter 23: Stepping Into His World
Ariana Pov The bedroom door swung open just as I reached for my towel to cover my body.Damian walked in.I froze.For one terrifying second, I stood frozen, completely exposed before him, immediately grabbed my white shirt and pressed it against my body.Damian suddenly turned his back, one hand covering his eyes.“Oh.” His voice tightened. “I didn’t mean to barge in on you. The door wasn’t locked.”“You should have knocked before coming in.” I quickly pulled the shirt over my head. “That’s how privacy works. You don’t just walk into my bedroom because you own the whole house.”“Are you going to lecture me about privacy now?” he shot back. “You were the one who left the door unlocked while you were taking a shower.”“Why didn’t you shut the door?”“So it’s my fault now?”I buttoned my shirt and glared at him.“You walked in without knocking. You can turn around now, you jackass.”Silence.Then Damian slowly turned around.His eyes fixed on me, giving nothing away.“What did you just
Married My Ex's Billionaire Uncle Accidentally Chapter 22: The Inheritance
Adrian Pov The pool lights reflected across the dark water, making everything around us glow under the night sky. Tessa leaned against the edge of the pool, her wet hair falling over her shoulders as she swam back toward me, a teasing smile playing on her lips. The moment she got closer, she rested her arms on the edge of the pool and reached for my drink. “Hey, babe,” she said, taking it from my hand. I gave her an amused look. “You’re getting too comfortable.” She took a sip and smiled. “Maybe I am,” she said, placing the drink on the floor. I shook my head, but the corner of my lips lifted. She leaned closer, wrapped her arms around my neck, and kissed me. I lifted her effortlessly as her legs wrapped around my waist. I crushed my lips on hers, then trailed it down her neck. When I heard approaching footsteps, I quickly lifted Tessa and carried her to the edge of the pool. I carefully set her down on the pool deck before turning toward the sound. A maid appeared a
Married My Ex's Billionaire Uncle Accidentally Chapter 21: The preparation
The contract had already been signed. In no time, everything would finally be in place. In a year, the marriage would be over, my grandfather’s conditions would be satisfied, and control of the inheritance would finally be mine. After that, everything would return to normal. The cool evening breeze swept through the garden as I stood beside the fountain, watching the water fall steadily into the basin below. For once, there was nothing left to sort out. No terms to revise. No paperwork waiting for my approval. Footsteps approached from behind me. I turned to find the butler standing a few feet away, an elegant cream-colored envelope in his hand. “This came from Harrington Cole, sir.” I took it and opened it. An invitation to tomorrow's birthday banquet rested inside, along with a short handwritten note. Don't forget to bring your wife. I would love to see her in person. I folded the note and slipped it into my pocket. “Have everything prepared for Mrs. Cole. Her dress,
Married My Ex's Billionaire Uncle Accidentally Chapter 20: The Cole's Name
My gaze lingered on the diamond ring resting on my finger. My fingers trembled slightly as I whispered, "Mrs. Cole." The words echoed through my mind like a rhyme. Just a few hours ago, I was Ariana Reed. Now I carried another family's name... and the weight of another family's future. Before I could say anything, Damian turned and walked toward the door. He pulled it open. "Come with me." Without another word, he stepped into the hallway as I followed quietly behind him, my eyes moving across the unfamiliar surroundings. Every corner of the mansion seemed carefully designed, from the expensive artwork on the walls to the flawless marble floors beneath my feet. Yet despite its beauty, I couldn't shake the feeling that I didn't belong here. Damian stopped outside a large wooden door. "This is your room," he said as he gently pulled the door open. I stepped inside, and for a moment, I forgot to move. My fingers tightened around the handle of my suitcase as my eyes slo
Married My Ex's Billionaire Uncle Accidentally Chapter 19: A wife On Paper
Ariana Pov The driver stepped forward. Without a word, he took the suitcase from my hand and carried it to the gleaming black Mercedes-Maybach parked by the curb. He carefully placed it in the trunk, closed it gently, then walked around and opened the rear passenger door for me. I stood there for a moment, staring at the luxury car. "Miss," the driver said politely. I took a steadying breath before climbing into the back seat, clutching my handbag against my side. Before the driver closed the door, I looked back one last time. Serena was still standing outside the apartment building, waving at me with a small, reassuring smile. I managed a faint smile and waved back. As the car slowly pulled away, Serena grew smaller in the distance until she finally disappeared from view. I leaned back in my seat, my chest tightening. No matter how often we called or visited each other, it wouldn't feel like when we were staying together. A few minutes later, the car slowed in front
Married My Ex's Billionaire Uncle Accidentally Chapter 18: One Last Night
I pushed the apartment door open and stepped inside. As the door clicked shut behind me, I let out a tired breath, feeling the weight of the day finally catch up with me. I slipped off my shoes, walked into my bedroom, dropped my purse onto the bed, and collapsed onto the mattress, staring blankly at the ceiling. A soft knock sounded on the partially open door before Serena peeked inside. "Hey, babe." She offered me an apologetic smile as she stepped into the room. "How did the meeting go with the mystery employer? The one that got you all worried with the mysterious phone calls?" I looked away, my mind replaying everything that had happened. "The meeting was not what I was expecting." Serena's expression changed as she noticed the seriousness in my voice. "I don't understand." "I thought the meeting was for a job proposal or an interview. That's what I thought, Serena. But when I got there, I found out that it wasn't a job proposal." I hesitated, my fingers tightening
