All Chapters of My Ex-Fiancée Is Now My Uncle's Wife: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Anne woke up at six in the morning even though today was her twenty sixth birthday.She slipped out of the bed quietly so she would not wake Donald. The house was silent except for the sound of her footsteps on the cold tiles as she made her way to the kitchen.Anne always made him breakfast every morning. Today she was making it extra fancy. She added candles to the plate of the toast. In the process of putting the finishing touches, she heard the door open and Donald walked in."Good morning," Anne said, smiling sweetly. "I made your favorite."Donald walked past her to the coffee machine. He was already on his phone, scrolling through something. His hair was still wet from the shower."Morning," he said, not sparing her a single glance.Anne watched him pour coffee into his mug. He hadn't touched the breakfast nor had he seen the candles yet."Donald," she said softly. "It's my birthday."He glanced at her briefly, stopping to stare at her for a brief second.

Anne woke up in the hotel room at noon.Her body ached. Her eyes were swollen from crying. Her cheek still hurt where Donald had slapped her.She looked at herself in the bathroom mirror. She looked terrible. Her hair was tangled and her eyes were red with a faint mark on her left cheek.She splashed water on her face and tried to remember what she was supposed to do today.Then it dawned on her that today was her engagement dinner. Her father had made her plan months ago. It would be a formal dinner to celebrate the engagement with both families before the wedding next month.

He didn't know about the slap or Hannah or any of it.Anne sat on the edge of the bed.She could skip it. Just not show up.But her father would worry.

Anne woke up to sunlight on her face. The ceiling was unfamiliar…tis wasn't her apartment. She thought darkly.She sat up quickly. Her head pounded. She looked down at herself. Still wearing the black dress from last night. Even her shoes were on.The bedroom was huge. Where was she?Anne stood up slowly. Her legs shook but they worked. She remembered pieces of last night. The club! The man who drugged her and stranger who saved her…and the car!Her face burned hot. She remembered climbing into his lap. Trying to unbuckle his belt.“I could die of embarrassment right now” she muttered to herself.She walked out into a massive living room. The penthouse was empty. On the kitchen counter was a note in sharp handwriting.(You deserve better.)Her purse was there too. Her phone was inside with a cracked screen and seventeen missed calls from Donald.The phone rang in her hand showing Donald’s name in the caller ID.Anne answered."Anne! Oh thank God. Where have you been? I've been calling
