After Reincarnation I Married My Ex's Uncle Chapter 0023
That evening, I trudged into the house, my feet aching from the day’s efforts. My mom was in the kitchen humming softly, while Dad and Brian were seated in the living room, engrossed in a lively debate about some sports game. The aroma of freshly cooked stew filled the air, a comforting reminder that home was my sanctuary after a long day.“How was work?” Mom asked, peeking her head around the corner.I kicked off my shoes and dropped my bag by the stairs. “It was good, actually,” I said with a tired smile. “Exhausting, but... good.”Brian gave me a curious look. “Good? Who are you, and what have you done with my lazy ass sister?”I rolled my eyes. “It’s only my first day."Mom chuckled. “Dinner’s ready. Come eat before you head upstairs.”We ate together, the familiar sounds of clinking utensils and light conversation grounding me. When the meal was done, I excused myself, retreating to my room. After a quick shower, I collapsed onto my bed, letting out a satisfied sigh.I thought ab

The morning began on the wrong foot. Traffic had been relentless, and by the time I finally arrived at the office, I was already on edge. As I stepped into the building, I couldn’t shake the strange tension in the air. Conversations seemed quieter, glances more furtive. But I brushed it off, chalking it up to the usual Monday blues as I made my way to my desk.Just as I was about to start my day, Naomi sauntered over, her heels clicking loudly against the polished floor. Her smirk was unmistakable, the kind that immediately put me on guard.“Well, well, look who decided to show up,” she said, her voice dripping with mockery. “What’s it like being a traitor?”I froze, my fingers hovering over my keyboard. “What are you talking about?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady despite the pit forming in my stomach.Naomi’s grin widened, clearly enjoying the moment. “Oh, don’t play innocent. You should really be careful where you leave your secrets lying around. Alaric’s looking for you, b

When I got home, the familiar scent of freshly baked cookies greeted me, and I found my mom bustling around the kitchen. She turned to me, her warm smile faltering as she caught sight of my face.“Anna?” she asked, concern lacing her voice. “What’s wrong, sweetheart, why are you home so early?”That was all it took for the dam to break. Tears spilled down my cheeks as I collapsed onto the couch, burying my face in my hands. Mom was by my side in an instant, pulling me into a comforting hug.“It’s okay,” she murmured, stroking my hair. “Whatever it is, we’ll figure it out. Just tell me what happened.”Between sobs, I recounted the day’s events—the leaked information, the accusations, Naomi’s taunts, and the humiliation of being sent home. I told her about Alaric’s belief in my innocence and the way Naomi’s face had betrayed her guilt. By the time I concluded, my voice had become hoarse, and my emotions felt as if they had been squeezed out like a dried sponge.Mom’s grip tightened, her

"I told you I was innocent," I said, a hint of smugness in my tone as I handed Alaric the recording.He rolled his eyes, his lips quirking into a half-smile. "And I believed you," he replied evenly, holding the recorder to examine it. "What’s this?""It’s a recording of Naomi admitting her crime," I said, watching his expression shift to one of intrigue.Alaric pressed play, listening intently as Naomi’s voice filled the room, each word an undeniable confession. When the recording ended, he leaned back in his chair, an impressed look softening his usually stern features."How did you manage this?" he asked his tone a mixture of curiosity and approval.I explained my plan briefly, how Mia had helped me set it all up, and how I’d baited Naomi into confessing in the restroom. By the time I finished, he was leaning back in his chair, his fingers steepled under his chin."I’m impressed," he said with a low chuckle. "You solved the issue in less than a day. Not many people can do that."The

As we drove through the countryside, the silence in the car grew heavier. I shifted uncomfortably, glancing at Alaric, who was focused on the road, his expression unreadable. To break the tension, I asked, "Mind if I put on some music?" He nodded without looking away from the road. "Go ahead." I turned on the radio and flipped through stations until I landed on a pop song I adored. A smile spread across my face as I began to sing along softly. The upbeat melody lifted my spirits, and for a moment, it felt like the world outside didn’t matter. When the song ended, I realized how absorbed I had been and glanced at Alaric. He was watching me out of the corner of his eye, an amused expression tugging at his lips. Embarrassment flooded me. "Sorry, that was… very inappropriate," I mumbled, fiddling with the hem of my blouse. To my surprise, he chuckled. "Don’t apologize. It was… refreshing." I blinked at him, caught off guard by his words. "Refreshing?" He nodded. "It’s nice to

We ran as fast as we could, weaving through the dense forest. The trees and underbrush were thick, making it hard for anyone to track us. After what felt like an eternity, the sound of footsteps chasing us faded away. We slowed, trying to catch our breath. “We lost them,” Alaric said, his sharp gaze scanning the area. “But we need to keep moving. They might double back or spread out." Though my lungs burned and my legs screamed for rest, I nodded. “Okay,” I managed, determined not to slow him down. After a while, Alaric glanced at me. “You’re exhausted,” he said, his voice softer now. “Let’s rest for a few minutes." “No,” I shook my head firmly, even though my body ached to agree. “If we stop, they might catch up. I can keep going." Alaric’s lips pressed into a line, his eyes narrowing as he studied me. “Fine,” he said after a moment, “but you’re not doing this alone." Before I could protest, he stepped closer, gently grabbing my arm and positioning me so I leaned against him. “

Alaric took off his jacket, his movements precise as he tore a piece from it. Without a word, he knelt down again and began to gently clean my legs with the makeshift cloth. “Alaric, you don’t have to do this,” I protested, trying to pull my legs away, but he held firm, his gaze unwavering. “I want to,” he said simply, his voice steady. There was something in his tone that silenced me. He worked carefully, wiping away the blood and dirt. Every now and then, his hands would pause as if checking to make sure he wasn’t hurting me. When he finished, he tore the rest of his jacket into two longer strips and wrapped them around my feet, securing them snugly. The material provided an immediate sense of relief, dulling the sting from the cuts and scratches. “There,” he said, standing up and looking down at me with a small, reassuring smile. “That should help with the pain for now." “Thank you,” I murmured, feeling a mix of gratitude and guilt for how much he was doing for me. He seemed

“Anna, wake up.”I groaned, still half-asleep, and rolled over, but the urgency in Alaric’s voice pulled me from my slumber. His hands gripped my shoulder, shaking me firmly. “What? What’s going on?” I mumbled groggily, blinking up at him. He pressed a finger to his lips, signalling for me to be quiet, and then pointed toward the door. My heart jumped as I strained my ears, and the faint sound of scuffling reached me. The haze of sleep vanished instantly. I sat up, now wide awake, as the muffled noise became clearer—footsteps, voices. My eyes darted to Alaric, who had his finger on the trigger of his gun, his expression tense. Swallowing hard, I grabbed the pistol he’d given me, my hands trembling slightly. I released the safety with a soft click, the sound unnervingly loud in the otherwise quiet cabin. The voices outside grew louder, more distinct. “Are you sure they’re in there?” one of them asked, his tone irritated. “They can’t have gone far,” another replied, sounding confi

After finishing dinner, I hurried upstairs, my mind spinning with ideas and arguments. If I wanted to go back to work, I needed a plan—and a solid one at that. Dad was stubborn, but he valued logic and straightforwardness, so I had to appeal to that side of him. Pacing the length of my room, I muttered to myself, rehearsing different approaches. I couldn’t just beg or plead—that would only make him dig his heels in further. No, I needed to show him that returning to work was the right decision, both for me and for the family. At least I had some allies. Mom seemed to be warming up to the idea, and I knew my brother was already on my side. If they backed me up, convincing Dad would be easier—or so I hoped. By the time Dad arrived home that evening, I was ready. Taking a deep breath, I waited until he was settled in the living room with his usual cup of coffee before making my move. “Dad, can we talk?” I asked, standing in the doorway. He glanced up, his brow furrowing slightly. “O

A few days later The morning was gray and overcast, mirroring my mood as I sat on the edge of the hospital bed, waiting for the nurse to finish my discharge papers. It had been a few days since the… incident, and while my injuries were minor and healed faster than expected. However, the emotional toll lingered like a storm cloud over my head. For one, my parents still refused to talk about me returning to work. Every time I tried to broach the topic, Mom expertly dodged the conversation, changing the subject like a seasoned politician. After the third attempt ended in frustration, Ryan pulled me aside and advised me to wait until I wasn’t sitting in a hospital bed to bring it up again. “They’re just worried about you, Anna,” he said. “Let them see you’re okay first.” I hated to admit he was right. But what really stung—what made my chest tighten every time I thought about it—was that Alaric hadn’t called, texted, or even stopped by. Not once. I thought we were friends—or at l

beep beepA steady beeping sound drew me out of a deep fog. Blinking slowly, I was met with an expanse of white, sterile walls, and a bright overhead light. It took a moment for reality to settle in—I was in a hospital.I looked around, taking in the faint hum of machines and the faint antiseptic smell. My gaze dropped to my arm, where tubes and wires connected me to the beeping monitor. Confusion mingled with an ache in my shoulder as I struggled to sit up.The movement sent a sharp jolt of pain through my shoulder, making me wince. It wasn’t unbearable, but it was enough to slow me down. I was still fighting to prop myself up when the door opened. For some strange reason, my heart lurched, and I found myself hoping it was Alaric. The flash of disappointment that followed seeing my brother startled me—why had I wanted it to be him? Maybe I just needed to know he was okay after everything. “Anna!” my brother called out, his voice full of relief as he rushed to my side. His happiness
