Adrian

I walked past her, opening my office door, and she followed immediately, her heels clicking sharply against the floor.

“I can’t believe your receptionist tried to stop me,” she complained as soon as the door shut behind us. “Since when do I need clearance to see you?”

I moved to my desk without reacting, taking my seat calmly.

“Since I hired her,” I replied evenly.

She huffed softly but didn’t press further.

I folded my hands

  • My Fiancé's Uncle is Obsessed With Me!   chapter 87

    Emily I woke up before Adrian. That alone felt strange. For a few seconds I simply lay there, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling above the large bed, trying to remember where I was. Then everything from the previous night came rushing back. The dinner. The confrontation. The courthouse. The marriage certificate. Adrian’s voice calling me his wife. My gaze shifted to the man sleeping beside me. Adrian rarely looked relaxed, even in sleep. There was always a certain tension in the way he carried himself, as if he was always alert, always calculating. But right now, his breathing was slow and steady, his expression calm in a way I rarely saw. One arm was draped across my waist. Possessively. Like even in his sleep he had no intention of letting me go. A faint smile tugged at my lips. Carefully, I lifted his arm and slipped out of bed. Adrian shifted slightly but didn’t wake. Good. Because I had things to do. By the time Adrian woke up an hour later, I was already sitt

  • My Fiancé's Uncle is Obsessed With Me!   chapter 86

    Emily For a moment after I kissed him, Adrian didn’t move. It lasted only a second. But I felt it. That brief pause where he seemed surprised that I had made the first move. Then his hand tightened at my waist. And the hesitation disappeared. His mouth moved against mine slowly at first, almost cautiously, like he was savoring the moment. But the restraint didn’t last long. Adrian deepened the kiss, drawing me closer until there was barely any space between our bodies. My back instinctively pressed against the door behind me. His hand slid up my spine, fingers spreading against my back as if anchoring me there. I felt the heat of him even through our clothes. “You started this,” he murmured against my lips. I lifted an eyebrow slightly. “And?” “And you might regret it.” My heart skipped. “That sounds like a challenge.” A faint smile curved his lips. “It’s a warning.” I didn’t step away. Instead, I slid my hands up his chest slowly, feeling the firm lines of muscl

  • My Fiancé's Uncle is Obsessed With Me!   chapter 85

    Emily The word wife lingered in my mind long after Adrian said it. My wife. It felt strange. Stranger than the marriage certificate I was still holding in my hands. Stranger than the fact that just a few hours ago I had been sitting at a dinner table breaking off an engagement. And now… Now I was standing outside a courthouse as Adrian Carter’s wife. The night air was cool against my skin, but Adrian’s hand resting at my waist was warm and steady, grounding me in a reality that still felt slightly surreal. He kissed me again before I could think too much about it. His lips were firm and certain, like the rest of him had been all night. When he finally pulled away, his gaze searched my face. “You’re thinking too much.” I raised an eyebrow. “I just got married three hours after agreeing to it. I think thinking about it is reasonable.” Adrian’s lips curved faintly. “You agreed.” “Yes.” “And you didn’t try to escape.” “Adrian, we were inside a courthouse.” “That doesn’

    Chapter 84 Emily For a few seconds after Adrian spoke, the car felt too small. Too quiet. The words let’s get married still echoed in my head, refusing to settle into something normal. I stared at him. “Adrian… you can’t be serious.” “I am.” There was no hesitation in his voice. None. The dim lights from the passing streetlamps slid across his face, illuminating the determination in his eyes. Adrian Carter had always been intense, but tonight there was something different about the way he looked at me. Something almost… urgent. I shifted slightly in his lap, trying to create some distance so I could think properly. “Adrian,” I said slowly, “we just got back together.” “Yes.” “And you’re proposing marriage five minutes later.” “Yes.” I stared at him. “You don’t think that’s a little fast?” His hand tightened slightly around mine. “No.” The confidence in that single word made me exhale softly. Of course Adrian didn’t think it was fast. This was the same man who ha

    Emily The kiss left me breathless. It wasn’t gentle or hesitant the way I had expected it might be after everything that had happened between us. It was desperate. Hungry. As if Adrian had been starving. I barely had time to catch my breath before his hand tightened around my waist again, pulling me closer. I tried to shift away slightly, my mind still spinning from everything that had just happened at the dinner table. But Adrian didn’t let me go. Instead, he lifted me easily and drew me fully onto his lap. “Adrian—” My protest faded when he buried his face in the curve of my neck. His arms tightened around me, holding me against him like he was afraid I might disappear if he loosened his grip. “I missed this,” he murmured against my skin. His voice was low. Rough. For a moment, I didn’t reply. The car moved smoothly through the quiet night streets, the dim lights from outside flickering across the dark interior. Daniel was driving in front, wisely pretending he coul

  • My Fiancé's Uncle is Obsessed With Me!   chapter 82

    Adrian The silence in the dining room was absolute. Every single pair of eyes was on me. Shock. Disbelief. Confusion. I could see all of it clearly on their faces, but… I didn’t care. Because the long game was finally over. I had spent years watching Emily from the shadows. Months hiding in secret like a dirty affair. The last few months helping her dig through secrets that had kept her trapped in a cage she didn’t even realize existed. And tonight, it had paid off. She had chosen me. Not out of love. Not because she suddenly couldn’t bear to stay away from me. But because she was finally done being used by the people who claimed to care about her. The Brown family. The Carter family. Both of them had treated her like a pawn. A tool. A bargaining chip. And now she had flipped the board over completely. I had known something was coming tonight. The moment she walked into the dining room earlier, I saw it in her eyes. Emily had a particular expression whenever she
