Married To My Ex-Fiancé's Silent Uncle

Married To My Ex-Fiancé's Silent Uncle

Ming Yue
Twenty minutes before the "Wedding of the Century" at The Plaza, I stood outside the Presidential Suite in a fifty-thousand-dollar Vera Wang gown. I was the girl from a West Virginia trailer park about to marry Hugh Maxwell, the golden heir to a billion-dollar defense empire. I pushed the door open only to find Hugh pinned against the bed with my own stepsister, Floy. She was wearing my bridal diamond necklace, and the sounds of their laughter scraped against my eardrums like sandpaper. I didn't scream; I listened as Hugh grunted that once the wedding was over and the trust fund unlocked, he'd dump "that hillbilly trash" on a bus back to the mountains. They weren't just cheating; they were planning to steal my family's land deeds and leave me with nothing. When I set off the sprinklers and exposed their naked bodies to the paparazzi, the Maxwell family didn't apologize. They called me a "greedy peasant" and threatened to ruin my life unless I signed a new deal to save their crashing stock. I realized then that I was never a bride to them. I was a transaction, a rounding error in a ledger to be used and discarded. They thought my poverty made me weak and my silence made me a victim. "If we don't have a marriage certificate by midnight, the bank freezes thirty percent of our liquidity," their lawyer warned. So, I gave them exactly what they wanted. I used a loophole in their hundred-year-old family covenant and married the only other direct heir available. I didn't marry Hugh. I walked into the ICU and married his uncle, Fleet Maxwell-the legendary war hero who had been in a vegetative state for months. Now, I am the matriarch of the Maxwell dynasty. I've suspended Hugh's executive powers, exiled my mother-in-law to the Swiss Alps, and taken control of the family vault. They think I'm just a gold-digger waiting for a "corpse" to die so I can collect a fifty-million-dollar widow's payout. But last night, as I lay beside my comatose husband, the man they called a vegetable gripped my hand back.

The city lights lit up the lonely nightscape.

In the private box of a nightclub was a woman. Her eyes were watery, and her face unusually flushed red.

"Ahhh... It's so hot..." Growing more and more uncomfortable, Emily Mu tried to take her clothes off.

Suddenly, she heard footsteps. Propping herself up on her elbows, she desperately tried to get up from the bed. Unfortunately, she was too weak, and slumped down back on the mattress.

A man walked up to her and raised her chin. "Are you Flora Mu's sister, Emily Mu?"

"You are..." Emily Mu tried her best to open her eyes. The light in the room was dim, and the man's statue-like features looked quite handsome. The expression on his face was cold, and his sharp eyes stared into her face with a ferocity. It was a look that was definitely not the friendly type.

The man leaned over, and the pungent smell of alcohol swept over her nose. His burning breath sprayed on her face. "Well, don't you look so innocent and pure? I guess I'll have to take you to atone for your sister!"

The woman's long black hair fell down the sides of her face, making her look even more beautiful. Her complexion was as smooth as porcelain -- not a single flaw could be seen on her fair skin. Because of the drug she had unknowingly taken, Emily Mu helplessly panted and squirmed around.

"Damn it!" Edward Situ cursed in a low voice.

'How can this woman be so arousing?!'

She was his enemy. By now, he should have been in the middle of torturing her. 'I ordered those people to make her unconscious. Not drug her like... like this!'

Lifting his hand, he gingerly touched her cheek, which in turn made her tremble inexplicably. "I... Why am I here?" she mumbled under her breath.

Her cheeks were pink like peach, and her lips were slightly parted as she took in deep breaths. Above her big eyes were her raised eyebrows, which were knitted together in confusion. It was an understatement to say that Edward Situ was very much interested in this woman.

"Why are you here? Can't you see? We have this room all to ourselves." He smirked. There was no one around who could stop anything from happening.

"It's so...hot. I want..." From the looks of it, Emily Mu couldn't understand what Edward Situ had said to her just now.

There were a lot of things going on in his head at the time. Here was a gorgeous looking woman lying in bed in front of him, as innocent and helpless as a rabbit. From the looks of it, she didn't even seem to realize that she was in danger.

'I know I have a job to do... But why not take advantage of the situation first?'

A cold light flashed across Edward Situ's eyes. He would not let her go so easily!

"It's very hot, isn't it? I'll do what you want now. I'll make you feel comfortable!" He picked her up, walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower head. Cold water rushed out of the shower head and instantly drenched her clothes.

"Ah..." Emily Mu was wet all over, her hair messily matted down on her face. Despite her appearance, she sighed in relief as she suddenly sobered up.

After a while, she looked around her. "Why am I here?" Finally, her eyes laid on the man in front of her.

His eyes, which were framed by his thick brows, were as bright as dark diamonds. A strong, pressing aura exuded from him.

Still in a daze, Emily Mu couldn't help but think how handsome this man was!

Even though she was still out of her wits, she recognized him almost immediately that this man was her sister's fiance.

Which made him her...

Brother-in-law! But now he was alone in the bathroom with her!

"Brother-in-law! What are you doing?" With a blush on her face, she stared at him with her bright eyes. It wasn't until this point that she realized that something was wrong.

"I don't want to be your brother-in-law! And I don't want to marry a murderer!" Edward Situ sneered.
