All Chapters of My Fiancé’s Uncle is Obsessed With Me: Chapter 41 - Chapter 48

Eveline The jump scare in the hallway that made Eveline flinch as she hurried down, glancing at her phone and praying she wasn’t late to work, was Shane. She stepped back, with her hand pressed to her chest. “Jesus. You scared the shit out of me. Wait…” she frowned, her mouth twitching to one side as she took a second, much better look at him. “Why are you dressed like that?” His hair was disheveled, his face was puffy, and he still had on the clothes from last night when they had dinner. Eveline made a face as her eyes landed on the food stain smack in the middle of his chest. Didn’t he have work to be at? He was the family’s hotshot lawyer, no? The one she couldn’t compare to, because she was his “little psychology student” and nowhere close to being a real doctor. According to his dearest mother. If only she could see her son right now. Eveline wasn’t interested in knowing what was going on. If he got fired or decided to take a day off work…it was his business, n

Lucien Gerald was bound to show up on time for the charity gala, so Lucien did one thing his brother couldn’t do—that he would’ve loved a little less than having to disown his younger brother, but still enjoyed so much. He showed up late. Two hours after the time written in the email, when the event was in full swing. Someone was trying to be funny on stage, and the crowd was doing its best to show him support, with dry, scattered laughter and a few rounds of applause. Thankfully, he got the message as Lucien found a table at the end, with a few other medical professionals who looked like they’d been forced to attend. Residents? “Alright, everyone! I know I’m boring you up here, so we’re going to move to the fun part of tonight’s gala—the drinks.”That was enough to rouse the crowd again. “Dr. Roswood.” One of them recognized him as he tried to stand, her eyes going wide. “Oh, my god. It’s you, isn’t it?”He nodded, clearing his throat quietly. “Depends on which Roswood you’

Eveline “Where did you go? I’ve been looking for you for an hour.”Eveline smoothed her dress as she walked back into the hall, ignoring Shane’s questions. She wasn’t obligated to give him answers, and her legs were still shaky from…Well…“There’s a leaf in your hair.” Her breathing caught when he spoke, but she stood still as he reached up to remove it, holding it between his fingers with a confused frown. “Were you in the garden? I walked past it, calling your name.”She heard him alright. When she was clinging to Lucien’s hair, with her leg hooked over his shoulder and his mouth was doing wicked things to her. And she heard him step out a second time, while she was on her knees…her mouth busy doing other things. The look on Lucien Roswood’s face as her head bobbed up and down, taking him as far back in her throat as she could—was euphoric. The corner of Eveline’s mouth twitched with a secretive smile as she stopped listening to Shane, walking away. “Wait—Evie.” He jogged to

Eveline “…and before you tell me that you’re okay,” Nurse Belinda stopped Eveline before she could speak, pulling her into the nurses' station and sitting her down. She stood in front of her with a stern tone that hid the worry in her eyes, her arms tightly crossed. “I want you to remember I’ve known you for a very long time. I was there when you were running around and bruising your elbows because you thought you had superpowers.”The corner of Eveline’s mouth tugged with a smile despite how shitty she felt inside. “But I did manage to land properly when I fell from the second-story balcony.” Nurse Belinda tutted. “That’s the story you told your parents, because you didn’t want them to know you broke your arm. You were screaming your little head off when they finally brought you into the ER.” Her face softened into a warm, maternal smile as she sighed. “What’s going on, love? You missed two days of work. And in the last week, you haven’t made it down here. Not even once.”“It’s b
