All Chapters of Carrying My Husband's Billionaire Uncle's Child (English): Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Scarlett bit her lower lip to keep the sudden rush of emotions from spilling over. Darius had mentioned marrying her several times, repeating it as though he had already made up his mind. Even so, she hadn't expected him to actually propose, especially in front of her grandmother, Erenea.Darius slowly reached into his pants pocket, his movements free of hesitation. A moment later, he knelt in front of Scarlett, close enough for their eyes to meet, and opened the red ring box.A massive diamond greeted Scarlett's eyes. It sparkled as the sunlight streaming through the window struck its surface. Even without asking, she could tell it was worth millions. She swallowed, unsure of what to do with her hands."Scarlett, dear, Darius's knees are starting to hurt. Give him your answer already. Tell him, 'Yes, I do,'" Erenea teased. A smile played on the elderly woman's lips, and the lightness in her voice made it clear that she was feeling much better.Scarlett let out a soft laugh and shook

Scarlett tugged at the hem of Darius’s black suit as they stepped out of the car. Standing before them was the five-star hotel Dawn had told her he was giving her as a gift.Scarlett was still in shock. In all her life, she had never heard of anyone giving away an entire hotel as a present.“Do Dawn’s parents know about this?” she whispered.Darius chuckled softly, taking the hand she was holding and lacing his fingers through hers. “His parents don’t mind it.”Scarlett could only sigh. The truth was, she hadn’t wanted to accept the gift yesterday. But Dawn had been so insistent, and by this morning, he had already managed to transfer the title into her name.They would be holding their engagement party at the hotel Dawn had given them this Friday. Today, they were meeting with the event planner who would handle all the arrangements.They climbed the steps to the entrance. The moment the doors opened, everyone inside bowed in unison to greet them. At the far end of the lobby stood Daw

Darius’s jaw tightened as he walked back toward his office. He loosened his necktie before letting out a frustrated sigh.His father was testing his patience. He wanted Darius to provide funds for Scar-Bias Holdings and give Tobias a position at Meridian Investment Partners in exchange for what Scarlett had done.Scarlett hadn’t done anything wrong. She was right to leave Tobias. Only a foolish woman who didn’t know any better would choose to stay by Tobias’s side.Darius could provide funding for Scar-Bias Holdings, but he would never allow Tobias to work at Meridian.His anger was interrupted by the ringing of his phone. He answered immediately when he saw Greg’s name on the screen.“Mr. Aldama!” Greg struggled to speak on the other end.“Greg?” Darius furrowed his brows.“It's... Ms. Scarlett…”Darius immediately turned around and rushed out of his office, heading for the elevator the moment he heard Scarlett’s name. Greg hadn’t even explained what had happened, but Darius already

Scarlett woke up in a soft bed. As she looked around, she realized she was in the bedroom she shared with Darius.The last thing she remembered before losing consciousness was her knees giving out. Her body had gone weak, and she had broken down in tears. Darius had been there to catch her.She sat up and tried to stand, but she winced when pain shot through her entire body. Looking down at her arms, she saw they were covered in scratches from the tall grass. Her legs were in the same condition. There were also bruises on her thighs, and both her wrists were sore and wounded from being tied too tightly.The bedroom door opened, and Darius walked in wearing black joggers and a white T-shirt. His hair was still slightly wet, making it obvious that he had just showered. He was carrying a tray full of food.“You’re awake,” he said gently.Scarlett swallowed. After what she had done, she couldn't bring herself to look him in the eye.“Does your body hurt?” Darius asked after setting the tr

People were constantly moving around inside Darius's villa. Everyone was busy preparing for the engagement party, even though it was only eight in the morning on Friday.Scarlett had just woken up from a deep sleep. When she opened her eyes, Darius was no longer beside her, but he had left a bouquet of red roses on the bed along with a love letter saying he would be gone for a little while and would return that afternoon.Scarlett gently opened the door to Grandma Erenea's bedroom. She found the older woman sitting on the veranda beside her private nurse, enjoying the fresh air drifting up from the garden below.She approached her grandmother and wrapped her arms around her from behind, giving her a gentle hug. “Looks like my Grandma woke up in a good mood today, huh?”Erenea smiled up at her granddaughter and affectionately stroked Scarlett's arm. “Of course. Today is the day of my most beautiful granddaughter.”Scarlett pouted and playfully rolled her eyes. “Grandma, I'm your only g
