Semua Bab He Lost Me, His Uncle Claimed Me: Bab 1 - Bab 10

In the third year of her relationship with the young and handsome Lucas, Anna decided to propose to him.She carefully prepared a candlelit dinner, changed into a delicate little dress, and put on bold makeup. As she poured the red wine, Lucas Caldwell wrapped his arms around her from behind, his heated kisses lingering at her ear.You finally made up your mind? Tonight…His strong arm circled her slender waist, long fingers gliding over the smooth satin of her dress.Anna turned around and gently pushed against his chest. Stop it. Eat first.Lucas was three years younger than her and about to graduate from college.Tall and lean, even a plain white shirt could not hide his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and clearly defined abs. His features were sharp and vivid, full of youthful energy, like a rising sun.He chuckled softly, a mischievous smile curling at his lips. Stepping forward, he slipped between her legs, caught her wrists, and pressed her back against the wine cabinet before l

When Anna woke up again, her whole body ached.With her memory in fragments, she could not immediately piece together what had happened the night before.She sat up. The silk quilt slid down, revealing bruises and marks scattered across her skin.Even an idiot would know what had happened. The missing memories rushed back like a tide.After getting drunk, she had grabbed a random handsome man and slept with him?Anna face went pale. Just looking at the state of the bed told her how intense last night had been.The sound of running water came from the bathroom.Anna felt like she was losing her mind. A one night stand felt good in the moment, then came the aftermath from hell.Last night, her head had been filled with thoughts of revenge. She forgot that she had never done anything like this before.She had no idea how to face the awkwardness of seeing that man when morning came.Lowering her head, Anna searched through the mess for her clothes.She kicked aside a pair of men trousers

Anna jolted upright as if pulled back from the brink of death. The sudden movement tugged at her injury, making her hiss in pain.The indecent scenes from last night flooded her mind, and the vivid leading man stood right in front of her.He looked even more striking than he had through her drunken haze.If she did not know Lucas had no older brother, she would have almost assumed this tall, refined man was his brother.Why are you here? Anna was mortified.Once had been after drinking. This time, she was nearly half naked on an examination bed.She hurriedly pulled up her pants and stared at him with open wariness.Lorenzo stepped closer. Anna had just stood up when she dropped back down onto the bed.He leaned in, bracing his hands on either side of her, enclosing her completely within his space. At this distance, she could clearly smell the faint, cool scent of pine on him.His thin lips curved with amusement. If I did not come, I would not even know my girlfriend ran away.Anna ha

Over the next two days, Anna deliberately lingered near the teddy bear, casually dropping suggestive remarks from time to time. Sometimes she would suddenly cover her mouth and rush away, and when she returned, there would still be suspicious traces of blood at the corner of her lips.Every day, Anna received updates on Stell latest victories. No wonder she had not seen Lucas at all. He had been busy accompanying Stell.Escape rooms, skydiving, clubbing.Those were the games young people liked to play.She was only three years older than Lucas. She should have been a carefree young lady herself.But Anna was not like Lucas, the precious golden boy cherished by the Caldwell family.Her scumbag father, who favored his mistress and neglected his wife, stopped pretending the moment her mother died.He brought the mistress family home immediately. If it were not for her maternal grandfather influence, she would not have been sent abroad. She would have been kicked out of the Whitmore famil

The man standing before her was tall and well built. She had verified it personally that night. Not only did he have an excellent physique, his stamina was nothing to scoff at either.With a face handsome enough to rival celebrities, he would draw attention even just as a boyfriend, let alone a husband.Unfortunately, he was not from the Caldwell family.Lucas uncle had to be at least forty, right?She had heard Lucas mention that uncle before. Eccentric temperament, disinterested in women, a lifelong bachelor, an old fashioned fossil.That was why Anna never connected this man with the Caldwell family uncle.“I am sorry. We are not suitable. What I said that night was just drunken nonsense. You would not take a drunk woman seriously, would you? Lastly, thank you for the painkillers.”Anna was beautiful. Since childhood, she had never lacked admirers.Rejecting men cleanly and efficiently was something she excelled at.She lifted her leg, about to leave, when someone suddenly grabbed
