My Ex's Uncle Became My Husband

As the elevator ascended to the top floor of the hotel, Charlotte felt her heart race in her chest. She stole a glance at Sebastian, whose sharp features and confident demeanor exuded a captivating allure, leaving her both curious and apprehensive.Meanwhile, Sebastian remained composed, his gaze fixed ahead as if lost in thought. It was his first time realizing he could hold a girl in his arms.As the elevator numbers climbed, the atmosphere between them grew more intense.Finally, the elevator doors opened, revealing a luxurious suite bathed in soft golden light.Sebastian pressed his fingerprint to the door, leading Charlotte into the room and placing her on the plush bed in the master bedroom.Charlotte's nerves began to kick in as she found herself in a strange man's bed. The tension was palpable.Sebastian loosened his tie. "Would you like to shower first, or shall I?""I'll go first," Charlotte hurriedly got out of bed and dashed into the adjacent bathroom.Staring at her refle

"Mr. Sebastian, here's your schedule for today," Ethan, Sebastian's assistant, walked into the CEO's penthouse bedroom early in the morning, as usual.Seeing Sebastian pinching his nose and rubbing his eyes, he asked with concern, "Is your eye condition acting up again?"As Sebastian's long-time assistant, Ethan was well aware of the CEO's health issues."No, it's fine. Do we have any special arrangements today?" Sebastian inquired."You have George's engagement party tonight," the assistant emphasized."Wasn't the engagement party yesterday?" Sebastian asked, puzzled."It didn't happen yesterday; they said they rescheduled it for today, the former CEO, your father wants you to attend" Ethan replied truthfully.Meanwhile, Charlotte had just returned home."Daddy, sister went to the nightclub yesterday without telling anyone; George searched for her for a long time," Charlotte's stepsister, Eva, was already stirring up trouble.Charlotte recalled the photos Eva had shown her, and she f

Charlotte felt a wave of discomfort at his condescending tone, but she refused to show it.Instead, she met his gaze head-on, her expression devoid of any emotion.Ignoring his sarcasm, she spoke coldly, "Do you have something to say to me?"Sebastian's expression remained cold and emotionless as he looked at her. Despite Charlotte's outward composure, he could still feel the tension simmering between them.The air in the restroom seemed to grow heavier with their silent standoff, each waiting for the other to make a move.Finally, Sebastian spoke, his voice low and devoid of warmth. "I believe you left something for me earlier."Charlotte felt a blush creep up her cheeks as she remembered the money, she had left for him."Yes, I did. Consider it a token of gratitude," she replied.A faint smile tugged at the corner of Sebastian's lips, his eyes twinkling with amusement."And what exactly are you grateful for?" he asked.A surge of defiance rose within Charlotte as she retorted, "For

"You despicable woman!" George's mother, Marian, turned around and slapped Eva across the face. "You dare to seduce your sister-in-law."As soon as Marian saw the screen, she knew her son's image in his grandfather's eyes was doomed. The only way to salvage the situation was to shift all the blame onto Charlotte's sister, Eva, and clear her son's name.Originally, Marian didn't approve of Charlotte. If it weren't for George's grandfather liking her, she wouldn't have wanted George to marry Charlotte. A girl studying art wasn't suitable to stand by her son's side as the future successor of the Goliath Group. But Eva, she looked down on even more. However, now that George's grandfather had handed over the reins to George's younger uncle, Sebastian, she had no choice but to compromise. After all, if it didn't matter whom her son married, it had to be someone the grandfather liked."Charlotte, George must have been drunk. He's always had you on his mind. You know about your sister's jeal

As the guests departed from the cancelled engagement ceremony, the news of the Goliath Group's young master's engagement being called off spread like wildfire across social media platforms.In the study room of the Goliath mansion, Rodrigo, George's father, confronted him with two options laid bare. "George, I'll give you two options now: either you secure Charlotte or your grandfather," Rodrigo declared bluntly. "I've just explained to your grandfather. Your feelings for Charlotte are genuine. As long as your grandfather still values Charlotte, it would help if you married her. You can handle the affairs outside as you please after marriage."Having come into the family through marriage, Rodrigo based his son's marital prospects solely on the benefits it could bring. "I know, father," George responded with resignation."There's also your uncle's matter. He just returned and has accepted a significant role in the Goliath Group. I heard from some board members that your grandfather int
