Semua Bab EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Chapter 42Greg Benedict had openly admitted his interest in Jess. In addition to that, he declared himself Gavin’s rival when he stepped into his house to threaten him.“You won’t see me coming,” Greg smirked, his eyes filled with mischief as he turned to leave.Gavin stood there, his mind reeling at the audacity. As the door slammed shut, Gavin let out a soft, breath. “That brazen lunatic.” He muttered, loosening his tie. He slumped into the couch, the exhaustion and the remnants of his hangover rushed in sinking him deeper into the plush couch. In no time, sleep took over. Meanwhile, Jess had been pacing their bedroom. She was restless and uneasy.She and Gavin had just made up, and now Greg showed up and complicated everything. What was he thinking, coming here?Instinctively, she searched for her phone, only to remember that it was still with Gavin.“Is Greg gone?” She wondered, carefully pulling the door open. She peered into the hallway and when she didn’t hear any voice

The internet went wild. Wilder than Gavin expected. The story was a cliche, yet why were many people so intrigued by it? Why were they so interested in it? Ryan cackled to himself, while the internet was on fire, he was benefitting. He had gained more recognition as the ‘poor boy’ while Gavin and Jess suffered. Where ever they went, hushed voices and whispered gossips followed them. Even in Gavin’s company. He had only come to work to close a deal. His workers treated him with respect as usual, but as soon as he turned his back, they were gossiping and whispering. Conversations stopped whenever he walked into the room. Glances were exchanged. The gossips wasn’t just on the internet, it had spread across his office too.Gavin clenched his jaw all day, wondering if Jess was having a better day. Meanwhile, Jess was mortified. At the grocery store where she was buying some food for the house, people weren’t taking it lightly with her. They were calling her names to her face.“Ho

How could people be so hateful without knowing the full story? she asked herself for the umpteenth time. But most importantly, how could Gavin have the same approach to every scandal? Five years ago, when Candace dragged him for cheating and taking advantage of a drunk girl, Gavin ignored it until he could shut their mouths by becoming a billionaire. Jessie wondered if he was adamant to fight back or if he was just playing safe. She hated the chaos of this whole scandal. Just like her appetite, she had lost sleep and peace from the day Ryan had decided to spread false rumors about them, but it was a wonder that Gavin, laying right next to her was soundly asleep. Jess heaved a deep sigh, as she turned, backing him. Her mind relentlessly drifted to her experience at the grocery store. She tried to block their voices away but the harder she tried, she felt like she was losing her mind. In the dark of the night, Jessie sought solace in the happy memories of her childhood but

Jessie could feel her heart rate rising, increasing. Gavin was offering her another shot? And he was doing it so sweetly, so sincerely. She moved her lips to speak but her breath hitched in her throat instead. "I know I haven't been the best husband," He continued, "But I'm willing to try." A small smile slipped on her face, her eyes uncontrollably dreamy as she locked gazes with him. "Let's do that," she said quietly, "Another shot sounds good." Gavin reached for her hand on the table, and gave it a gentle squeeze.. "It's gone cold," Jess chuckled, looking at their breakfast. "That's not good," Gavin replied, chuckling too. "So the staff that came gave me a long list of fun things we can do, what would you like to do first?" "We have skydiving, swimming, hiking, picking apples..." "Picking apples?!" he re-echoed as if he hadn't heard himself before. "How is that a fun thing?" "I want to try it" Jessie teased, "Who knows I might find it fun." Gavin snapp

If you've ever seen a movie where the leads are just two goofy people, tired of playing adults, and craving for a different type of fun then you most definitely would picture the scene of Gavin and Jess running around the fields in the hotel, soaked in the rain, giggling over nothing and everything at the same time.Gavin felt like a child again. Not that he had been one even when he was a child. His life had been tumultuous from the time he was born. He never knew his mother, his father barely showed him any affection. His only brother- Ryan's father- hated him when he was alive. It was because his life was this tumultuous and filled with hate that Gavin had went in search of his mother but even that had left broken and battered. His mother's family hated him for his father's sins, they rejected him because his father had rejected their daughter. Even while his father was alive, he paid for his sins. His mere existence bothered people. But right here, right now, running around i
