Fall For “My Husband’s Uncle” By Janet Macadam
Chapter 71

Chapter 71

Edith struggled in Carlos‘ arms angrily, but she could not move a bit because of their great disparity in strength.

Her face turned red with anger, and her tears fell uncontrollably. She accused him of his evil deeds. “Don’t think that you can do whatever you want just because you’re superior to me. You’re Simon’s uncle, not mine! You made me stay here for a whole day for no reason. Do you know that although I was hungry and thirsty, I didn’t dare to leave here? I can’t afford the food here, and all I can is only the cake I’ve just had!

You didn’t answer the phone. Sam couldn’t get in touch with you, neither did Simon! Are you two playing tricks on me? Simon is a jerk. Aren’t you a jerk, too?”

She felt so wronged that her tears fell along with the rain, her heart full of sadness,

She thought of the embarrassment of having no money to pay, the desolation of the text message from the, the sadness of encountering heavy rain when she went out, and the despair of the gangsters walking toward her…

She felt she was like an abandoned doll, and no one wanted her.

Even God did not favor her as it was raining so heavily.

If Carlos had not appeared, Edith did not know if she would have been able to avoid those gangsters. If she had unfortunately been….

She didn’t dare to think too much about what would happen. It was too terrible.

And everything she had encountered was because of his words.

She highly doubted that he had just said it casually. Even he himself had no idea when he would come back at that time. How could he ask others to wait for him so curtly?

Edith thought, “Isn’t this… going too far?”

Carlos knew that Edith really got angry, but he just frowned tightly. A raindrop fell across his sexy lips, which made him look even more charming.

He pursed his lips as if he had something to say, but for some reason, he said nothing, not even making a slight sound.

His reaction made Edith boil with rage. She thought, “He didn’t even give me an explanation. What’s going on? Doesn’t he know that he’s done something wrong?”

She said, “You… Put me down. What I do has nothing to do with you. Didn’t you leave me here for a day? Now, you finally

remember me?”

“Since you haven’t seen me for a whole day, why are you still waiting like a fool?” Carlos stopped in his tracks and held the struggling little girl tightly in his arms. Her tiny struggle was just an itch for him, not worth mentioning at all.

Even he was very surprised. Why was this girl so persistent?

At that moment, he did think that he would come back soon, so he said that. But out of his expectation, something happened to her. So he had no choice but to deal with it until now. After finishing it, he found that his mobile phone had been powered off for a long time. When he turned on the phone, he found the missed calls and text message were all from her. Only then did he remember that she was still in the cafe. He thought that she should have left long ago, but he still kept his promise and had a faint expectation in his heart.

He saw her running away in a panic through the rain, like a frightened bird escaping from wild beasts behind.

At that moment, it was as if something had stabbed into the softest part of his heart.

Was he the one who broke his promise, or was this girl too silly?

No one had ever been as silly as her!

No… no one could shake his soul like this. This girl made his heart unable to harden at all, and even provoked his protective of her forever.

Because he thought about how sad he would be if the person she waited so hard for was someone else.
