Fall For “My Husband’s Uncle” By Janet Macadam
Chapter 57

Chapter 57

Hearing the words, Edith immediately fell silent. Since Carlos had said that, what else could she say?

The delicious dishes were quickly served. Edith picked up a chicken drumstick without hesitation, but she soon realized that something was wrong.

She should have waited for Carlos to start first.

“You eat first, Uncle Carlos. I’ll pour you a cup of coffee!” Edith said flatteringly.

Whenever Carlos saw her being so attentive, he would always be in a good mood. He knew that Edith was obviously very afraid of him but still tried to suppress her fear.

In Carlos‘ eyes, the girl was very interesting.

“Eat whatever you want. Don’t mind me.”

Hearing this, Edith breathed a sigh of relief and began to satisfy her hunger.

During the meal, Edith could not help stealing glances at Carlos. He ate very elegantly and slowly, and even the fork seemed to be more expensive in his hand.

Carlos had smooth, tanned skin. Wearing a suit, he had a nice body. Edith searched all the information about Carlos in her mind, but she only knew that he never got close to women. Carlos had been 27 years old but didn’t even have a girlfriend. Every time Edith saw him, he was hanging out with his three friends. Therefore, it was rumored that Carlos might not like

women but…

As soon as the thought came to her mind, Edith couldn’t help shaking her head regretfully.

She thought, “Alas, nowadays good–looking men are all gay. What should we girls do?”

Seeing Edith shake her head and sigh, Carlos subconsciously asked. “What are you thinking about?”

Edith came to her senses, rolled her eyes, and giggled, “Nothing. I’m just curious… Uncle is so handsome, rich, and powerful, but why don’t you… even have a girlfriend?”

Hearing this, Carlos looked at her with a strange gaze.

He wondered if Edith was talking about him.

As soon as Edith said that, she regretted it, feeling that she was being too blunt. She immediately explained, “I… I’m just curious. Nowadays, many people advocate late marriage and late childbirth. I think it’s also very good.”

“You seem to be very curious about my private affairs?”

“No, how dare I!” Edith hurriedly said and changed the subject. “Uncle… Simon came to me last time. We didn’t meet, but we had a good talk.”

“So how are you going to repay me?” Carlos raised his eyebrows and asked.

“Repay Edith thought to herself.

She was slightly stunned and then said, “How do you want me to repay you?”

“Robert will throw a party tonight and require everyone to bring a date on the invitation. You go with me.”

“That might be… inappropriate? Will others think there’s something between us?”

“Then I won’t help you contact Simon next time.”

Chapter 57

“Well…”

Carlos knew Edith’s weakness and pointed it out directly. Edith had been trying to contact Simon for so long but was always ignored by him. She just went to Carlos once, but Simon showed up that night and even said those words. Therefore, Edith assumed that Simon was very obedient to Carlos.

With Carlos‘ help, it wouldn’t be long before Edith left the Lawson’s place, so she could not afford to offend him!

In the end, Edith nodded helplessly and fixed the time and the place of meeting with Carlos.

Carlos had work to do at the company in the afternoon, so he asked Edith to go back and dress up before picking her up at night.

After getting home, Edith dealt with some things. Seeing that it was already four o’clock when she was done, she prepared to dress up and go out.

Edith opened the wardrobe in her bedroom again. In the past, she only got out some spare clothes, but now… she needed a beautiful party dress.

It took her a while to pick a tight–fitting patent leather dress. It had a round collar with no sleeves and wasn’t revealing at all by enveloping her body tightly.

She carefully put on makeup for fear that she would embarrass Carlos.

After getting dressed up. Edith went downstairs. Susan was stunned by her beauty and said with a smile, “You’re so beautiful. Mrs. Lawson. Mr. Lawson will definitely like the look of you this way!”

Hearing this, Edith felt a little worried. After all, she was going out with Carlos.

She didn’t dare to tell the truth and changed the subject, asking, “Do I really look so pretty?”
