My Jerk Ex’s Uncle Spoils Me Chapter 21: A Mole
SCARLETTI’m sitting at the visitor’s area, watching other families visiting their loved ones in prison while I wait for Dad to arrive.I still can’t believe I am no longer a virgin. I know it’s normal for people my age to have sex and it’s not really a big deal but after waiting three years in my last relationship only to lose it to a cold yet hot and handsome stranger like Damian in a flash, it just feels….I don’t even know the word for it.I mean this wasn’t the plan, the plan was to give it to someone I absolutely love and adore, who feels the same way about me. I wonder if Damian can fall in love with a girl like me though.I mean he’s like the undisputed king of the city and I’m just Scarlett Madden whose father is in prison. What am I even thinking? I can’t fall in love with someone like Damian, he’s just too cold and not even sweet or charming. I wonder what I took that night to make me come onto him that strongly.“Earth to Scarlett,” I hear dad’s voice before I sense his hand
My Jerk Ex’s Uncle Spoils Me Chapter 22: You Are Mine
SCARLETTRight now, I’m on my way to represent Dad at the Valleyview Annual Founders meeting. We were all shocked that we got invited because we weren’t expecting it, considering recent events.Mom declined to go, saying it was a waste of time but I know the real reason is because she’s no longer the queen of her group, just the wife of a man who was once a king.I plan to arrive at the meeting a little early on purpose so I can take a seat in the back. Trevor’s family is hosting and that means he could be here, I would rather not deal with him today.He keeps saying he wants to talk and make it up to me, calling me with different numbers that I am tired of blocking but every time I get on social media, a painful reminder of his deceit and betrayal slaps me in the face with how much Ashley and her cronies flaunt her relationship with Trevor.I already deleted everything about him from my social media and burnt every physical reminder of him around me, from pictures to clothes hi and ev
My Jerk Ex’s Uncle Spoils Me Chapter 23: A Confrontation
SCARLETT“Please have a seat Miss Scarlett, the old master will be down with you shortly,” the butler to Richard Cole, Trevor’s grandfather says.I spoke to Lexi about the mole dad talked about and apparently Dad didn’t have concrete evidence of it. It was only a hunch because when he and the lawyers were going through the files, he saw a lot of transactions that he didn’t authorise but his signature and the company’s seal were on them, which can only mean one thing, they were forged.His trial is only days away and I cannot bear to see him sentenced to prison for a long time because of something he didn’t do, so I am here to plead Dad’s case with Grandpa Richard, if he won’t give him a full pardon, at least just a little extension of the hearing date to buy us some more time.I thought of going to Damian at first but I don’t even know how to face him and he made it clear the last time that without proof, he wouldn’t help.I admire the living room just as one of the servants brings me
My Jerk Ex’s Uncle Spoils Me Chapter 24: Framed
SCARLETTWhy can’t they just get it? Trevor and I are done. As much as I want to rip into her for calling me a whore, I cannot afford for her to create a scene.“I am not here for you or Trevor. I’m here for something way more important, so please ignore me and carry on with yourselves,” I reply airily.“Bitch, you don’t tell me what to do,” Ashley replies in spite.“Well then do what you want, just fucking leave me alone,” I reply, grabbing my purse and walking away from them when Ashley suddenly grabs me by my hair and slaps me hard across the face.My mind goes blank and the only thing I feel is rage. How dare her? I will not be her punching bag, not anymore. I raise my hand to slap her back when it’s caught mid air and Trevor steps between us, my hands firmly clutched in his.“Get a hold of yourself Scarlett, don’t create a scene here,” Trevor says in a low but commanding tone.I yank my hand away from him, feeling my cheek burn. He stood there when Ashley slapped and disrespected
My Jerk Ex’s Uncle Spoils Me Chapter 25: Ashes
SCARLETTGrandpa Richard turns to him. “Now’s not the time Damian, this silly girl desecrated your mother’s ash.”“Your wife,” Damian replies in a hostile tone, his eyes hard at his father. “That woman was no mother to me.”The two stare at each other coldly for some brief seconds before Ashley breaks the tension with her shrill voice. “We’re not trying to fool grandpa Uncle Da-”“I’m not your fucking uncle,” Damian scowls at Ashley and she shudders, moving behind Trevor for cover but he moves away from her, putting some distance between them.Damian fixes his intimidating gaze on Trevor and the confident boy I used to know who could look anyone in the eyes and say whatever, looks down. I don’t want to say it but it looks like Trevor fears him, even that day at the meeting when Damain just asked him to zip it, Trevor quietly obeyed.“The other day if I recall correctly, it was you hung up on her and not the other way round, so why would she want to hurt this….thing?” Damian asks Trev

SCARLETT“Th-Thank you for helping me,” I say to Damian warmly, breaking the silence that had lingered in the air between us for minutes with neither of us saying anything.“So do you have the proof yet?” Damain switches back to his business tone, keeping his handsome face stoic.Are we really just going to ignore the gigantic elephant in the room? Is this how he wants to handle this thing between us?“No, not yet but I’m onto something,” I reply in a tone similar to his, despite the tightness I feel in my chest. If this is how he wants our conversation to be, then this is how it’s going to be.“What…..thing?” He asks in a low inquisitive tone, giving me a calculating look. The type that tells me he doesn’t believe I’m onto anything and he would be right, I am not.“It’s nothing concrete yet but I’m working on it.”He scoffs, drawing out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and he takes one out. He hits the butt repeatedly against the fingernail of his thumb before he brings out a ligh
My Jerk Ex’s Uncle Spoils Me Chapter 27: Her Endgame
SCARLETTI cannot help the pang of guilt that I feel in my heart as his cold judgemental eyes rake over my figure. I know how this looks but he has it all wrong.“I didn’t know you two were related. I didn’t even know who you were until that night we met,” I say calmly, looking straight into his eyes.He scoffs, taking a long drag of his cigarette, blowing the fume on my face on purpose, making me gag slightly.“Maybe it was after that night you devised your revenge plan. You do not fool me,” He says in that same low and cold tone. His eyes are sharp and dangerous at the same time, glaring at me.Why does he believe that I would give my first time to him just to spite Trevor? Wouldn’t that just be a shameful thing to do? Where’s the masterful revenge plan in that? Everything that ever happened between us was a coincidence, none of it was planned.“Listen to me Damian. I know how this looks but I promise you that’s not the truth. If I slept with you just to get back at Trevor, don’t you
My Jerk Ex’s Uncle Spoils Me Chapter 28: Professor August
SCARLETTI did file for the motion of continuance in court and thankfully, dad got another three month extension on his trial date. I had applied for a month but the judge had granted three. Obviously Mr. Presumptuous jerk and his company didn’t contest it.I know I swore that I never want to see him again but he just won’t leave me alone, always finding a way to squeeze himself into my thoughts.Today I hate him for what he said to me and tomorrow I find myself trying to justify his actions, that I pushed him and that he was kind to me and defended me.I just want him to get the hell out of my head.For a moment I thought something good may come out of that night but I guess I was naive, again. Men are all horrible and I don’t need one.Right now I’m headed to school, ever since this thing with dad started, I’ve been on and off with it and my perfect straight A’s results since first year are already sitting pretty in the mud.Dad made me promise I’ll return and at least try to gradua
