EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE The weather in Ice land
Candace barged into Ryan's office. She had been calling him for ages and he had been actively ignoring her calls. She was furious. As the door slammed shut behind her, Ryan shot to his feet, hand in pocket, bracing himself to face her squarely. "You spineless idiot!" Candace roared, "I knew your plan would backfire, what were you thinking using the whole ex card?!" "It was fun while it lasted. I had a satisfying few days." "huh!" Candace scoffed, "Now I can see why she left you. You're so small minded, you're satisfied with little wins. It's shameful." "It is also shameful that you're still pining for your married ex boyfriend. Let's not run a test of who is more pathetic." Ryan shot right back, his eyes flaring with anger. "I can also see why Gavin cheated on you, you feel you're better than everyone else when you're barely anything!" Candace's eyes darkened, her lips pressed into a thin line, "What did you just say to me?" she asked, her voice a low, yet heavy growl
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE A perfect moment
If you've ever seen a movie where the leads are just two goofy people, tired of playing adults, and craving for a different type of fun then you most definitely would picture the scene of Gavin and Jess running around the fields in the hotel, soaked in the rain, giggling over nothing and everything at the same time.Gavin felt like a child again. Not that he had been one even when he was a child. His life had been tumultuous from the time he was born. He never knew his mother, his father barely showed him any affection. His only brother- Ryan's father- hated him when he was alive. It was because his life was this tumultuous and filled with hate that Gavin had went in search of his mother but even that had left broken and battered. His mother's family hated him for his father's sins, they rejected him because his father had rejected their daughter. Even while his father was alive, he paid for his sins. His mere existence bothered people. But right here, right now, running around i

Chapter 45Jessie stood in front of the mirror, her fingers trembling slightly as she tried to fix her hair. She couldn’t shake off the unease that Candace’s sudden appearance had stirred. Whenever she appeared, Gavin always made her seem like an outsider. What was her hold on Gavin? Why was he always dismissing her when she showed up?Her thoughts were interrupted by a soft knock on the door. It was Gavin. He walked in, his eyes dark and distant, and for a moment, they both stood there in silence. While Jess waited for some explanation from him, Gavin’s mind wandered to the conversation he’d just had with Candace. “We’re still up for this evening, right?” Jess finally broke the silence. His eyes softened involuntarily as he swept across her adorned body. He wanted to hold her and to share Candace’s threat but he decided against it, knowing that it would not only ruin the evening they had planned together, but also their newly mended relationship.“Definitely,” he managed, “I’l
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE You’re perfect as you are
Chapter 46Jessie descended the stairs slowly, each step feeling heavier than the last. Candace’s words echoed in her mind, swirling together with the hurt and jealousy that cling to her chest like a deadweight.“It’s like you’re not even making any efforts for your wife.”She gripped the railing to steady her spinning head.She willed herself not to turn back, not to look up at the rooftop where Gavin sat.But she couldn’t help it. Her head turned slightly, her eyes flickering back in hope, expecting to see him following her. Nothing. The night stretched out behind her, quiet except for the faint buzz of distant street lights and soft music in the cafe street. Gavin didn’t come. Her heart twisted painfully, each passing second deepening the hollowness inside her. Wasn’t it just yesterday that they promised to give themselves another chance? Yet he just disappointed her.She pulled her jacket tight around her shoulders as the cool night air nipped at her skin, and she quickened her
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Is that what you tell yourself to sleep better at night?
Chapter 47THE NEXT DAYThe first light of dawn filtered through the curtains, wrapping the hotel room in a warm glow. Jessie stirred awake, the events of the previous night swirling in her mind. Everything replayed vividly— the ruined evening, the alcohol, the confession, until Gavin’s kiss that led them to bed. A blush crept across her face as she buried herself deeper under the covers. Jessie felt the warmth of his breath against her neck as he pulled her closer. They lay side by side enjoying the view of the forest by the full glass window. As if she had just remembered their unfinished conversation from last night, Jessie looked into his eyes, asking.“What about her?” her voice barely a whisper. Gavin took a deep breath, his brow furrowing in thought. “You’re my future, Jess. I promise, I don’t care about Candace.” His gaze was earnest, “I want to build something real with you. It’s you I want.” Jessie’s face flushed with pink, her lips curling into an involuntary smile.
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Get. Out
Jessie’s world tilted as the words “our child” echoed in her ears, louder than the sound of her own heart beating wildly in her chest. Her mouth went dry and for a moment, she couldn’t find the strength to speak or even move. “What… what child?” She managed to whisper, her voice shaky, barely audible.Gavin’s face darkened, his eyes bloodshot with barely contained rage. A vein pulsed across his forehead as his fist clenched by his sides. He turned around to catch Candace’s smug satisfaction. Every fiber in him wanted to storm across the room and slam her against the wall, repeatedly until that smug look on her face was wiped but that would be considered assault.“Gavin,” Jessie called, her voice still shaky. “What child is she talking about?”“I don’t know,” Gavin replied, his voice hoarse like he was barely restricting himself. “What child are you talking about Candace?”Jessie’s felt her stomach churn with both anger and frustration.“Are you playing games with me?” Her voice c
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE A little delusional
Jessie’s accusation lingered in the room like a stray bullet looking for who to pierce. Gavin took a few moments to process what he’d heard. “What are you talking about, Jess?” He blurted out, “What’s going on?”“Gavin,” Jess breathed, “Candace is behind Ryan’s madness. I’m sure of it.”“You must be sick in the head!” Candace’s eyes flashed with anger.“Look at that ring,” Jessie said, “The one on her right hand. That’s the same ring Ryan used to propose to me.”“Gavin, is this the woman you settled for, really? One daft, piece of shit that doesn’t know that anybody can buy a ring?”“We both know, Candace,” Gavin interjected, “You don’t wear cheap jewelry. There’s no way Ryan could’ve afforded a ring like that.”“But then again, there are knock offs.” Candace interjected. “What is wrong with you, Gavin? Are you seriously taking her side?”Gavin ran a hand through his hair, his jaw tightening as he spoke. “You leave me no choice, Candace. Did you do this with Ryan?”Candace’s eyes f
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Go clean up
Jessie and Gavin spent two more days in Iceland.Free from Candace, free from tattletales. The internet had dumped their hate for them, and had began to bite on Ryan for trying to break a 'beautiful union'.Gavin and Jessie wished they had known Candace’s role earlier, they would definitely have thrown them both to the curbs. Meanwhile Viktor was overjoyed that his advice had worked. But more than just that, he was relieved that Gavin was going to return to the office without having to worry about the awkward atmosphere in his office. While Gavin had found a balance between working on his vacation and his family time, Franklyn was actively overseeing the company in person and reporting every detail to him.Standing by the window, Jessie let out a deep, deep breath. One that she felt she had been holding for a long time. She hadn’t realized how the suffocating the last few months had been until now. Her life was finally taking some kind of shape. Having being stuck in bad times fo

EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Payroll
While Jessie gripped the bedsheets, biting into her pillow to keep her sobs from reaching her mom, Gavin was laying watch on his phone. As usual, Viktor was an excellent executor, the news had blown up as he expected.He had set the internet ablaze for the third time this year, not that he enjoyed being on the news but some things cannot be avoided especially if the public made it a point to be interested in your life.On the Sunday morning when the news had blown up, Gavin stood a few feet from his laptop on the table with a cup of black coffee in hand, his gaze unwavering on the screen.With each passing second, he watched the article explode, stirring the internet awake.On the left hand side, his phone was buzzing with calls and messages too many to reply, not that he was interested in any of them. Franklyn barged into the room, the disapproval in his expression met with Gavin's darkened eyes, and for a moment none of them spoke to the other. Tensed silence settled over the roo
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Bait
Chapter 75Gavin leaned against the kitchen counter, staring blankly at the black coffee in front of him. It was his only food for the last few days. Black coffee to keep awake, hot whiskey to keep his mind from Jessie. The closer he came to finding Remi Martin’s associate, the more tricky the case became. The events of the late fee days replayed in his mind, a relentless loop of anger and frustration. After waiting for five days (which seemed like forever to him) Gavin came up with an idea. If someone was really out to get his wife, then he had to fish him out, and what better was there to bait a fish than to use the very thing the fish wanted.What he wasn’t aware of was how deeply hurt he had made the bait. What he didn’t know was how devastated he had left the bait.The door creaked open and Franklyn walked in, his face almost scrunched up in tears. Gavin paused, observing his demeanor. “What happened?”“That was unnecessary!” Franklyn yelled, “Why do we have to do it this w
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Love lost
Gavin arrived his safe house at mid day. The house was filled with cobwebs mirroring how long it had been since he last stepped foot there. For a brief moment, he had thought his life had become stable, how wrong he was.He dropped his last luggage in the one room apartment and slumped into the dusty couch. For some reason, his head was about to explode from thinking about Jessie. He knew that leaving her behind was a risky, reckless decision, but it was for the best. Or so he wanted to believe. He thought that clinging onto Jessie was going to expose her to more danger, but if he quickly discarded her, he figured, no, hoped— he hoped that if he discarded her, they would ask him for something else. Never in his life had he ever attacked a problem without waiting it out for a few days. So his first plan here was to wait… but other than that, he came here to quietly investigate which of Remi Martin’s associates wanted his wife.And so, work began.The week passed by in such a blur
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Maybe it was retribution, maybe it wasn’t
Jessie stood outside the gate of her mother’s house (well, technically her house because she bought it.) She never thought she’d see the day when going home felt so difficult. She in fact bought this house because she was so eager to leave Gavin. Funny how life can deceive us.A sad smile crossed her face as she thought about that day, not too long ago. Falling for Gavin had happened so suddenly, in a way she never expected. Maybe she had always loved him, or maybe it wasn’t love. Maybe it was pity, maybe it was guilt. Whatever it was, she always found herself wondering how he was doing. Whenever his name popped up in the news, she always found herself rooting for him. Maybe it was retribution. Maybe it wasn’t. But now that they had confirmed their feelings for each other, was that what he expected of her? To stand by and watch him suffer from a distance. Gavin had once mentioned that he fancied her from their first night together, but didn’t ever act on it to protect her from
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE His first panic attack
Gavin had faced many oppositions in his life and every time he conquered. One time he was cursed with a hateful accountant, and that year his finances were in shambles, still he didn’t fall. The other time, he had to navigate a hostile takeover attempt by a rival company. Everyone told him he would lose it all— his business, his wealth. Even Aunt Meryl out of empathy, started cleaning his old room in the family house. Yet, despite the odds, Gavin came out successful. Despite knowing all these, despite being the same Gavin who went all in, and came out victorious. This time felt different. Like he wouldn’t survive it this time.In moments like this, normal people had the encouraging words of a friend or loved one ringing in their minds. But what did Gavin have? What played in his mind? The cruel voice of Candace Remington, telling him: “The Devil of Darion Town has something to protect, which also means he has something to lose… something that can be taken.”Painfully, she was
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Tragic ending
Chapter 71Gavin clenched his fist so tight his fingers dig into his palms. He was one breath away from punching this damn Don Corleone wannabe in the face. How dare he? But something held him back— it wasn’t fear. It was actually discipline. Jessie had once told him that violence never solved anything. Even if he was boiling inside, Gavin released a deep breath, his eyes spoke volumes but he held back. “Who is this your good friend?” He asked, his voice hoarse.“I can’t say,” Remi Martin replied, “But I can assure you, your wife will be safe.”The more Gavin tried to understand this, the harder it was for him. Was this man suggesting that he gave out his wife to service another man for the night? Is that what he was insinuating?“Unfortunately,” he said barely restraining him himself, “I don’t share, Remi.“ Remi Martin smiled a sly smile, nodding his head in agreement. “No man wants to share his wife, Mr. Pierre, I agree. I’ll go talk to my friend one more time. Like I told yo
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE My god friend
Chapter 70Gavin’s phone rang about a thousand times that morning. There were calls coming from left and right. Franklyn must have called a hundred times. Yet there was no answer. He was cuddled up in bed on a Monday morning, enjoying the close warmth of his wife.Jessie woke up first, feeling the sun rays warm up her face. She blinked her eyes open, her lips curved into a small smile as she took in her husband’s breath. Gavin woke up at the same time, the sun rays sting his eyes, but it was nothing compared to what he was going to feel later in the day. “Morning baby,” he mumbled, pulling Jessie closer. Meanwhile, pacing the gates of his company were his staffs, including Franklyn. “Oh for fuck sakes, man!” He cried, frustrated by how many times he had to call one person. Finally, after what felt like an eternity. Gavin finally came to the phone, his voice a sharp contrast to the chaos in his company.“You can’t possibly still be in bed with what’s going on man!” Franklyn’
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE Deeply in love
Chapter 69“Oh god, oh god, oh god!” Jessie exclaimed, exasperated. That wasn’t how she wanted this play out. That wasn’t how it played in her mind. When she retorted, “I can’t be pregnant! We’re not really married…”Instead of going to see a doctor. “For what?!” She fumed.She was expecting him to insist on children, on marrying her.Jessie paused, “Was I a bit too much with the drama?” She slumped to the bed, holding her head in her hand. After a long moment of staring at the ceiling, Jessie let out a deep sigh and pushed herself off the bed. She felt silly now, having built up the situation in her head only for it to backfire. It was just like Gavin to throw her off balance but really, he had led her on into thinking he wanted children. She went to the bathroom and freshened up, splashing cold water on her face to clear her thoughts. Then she took some time to wash her body. She felt all kinds of sore down there. Gavin had wrecked her yet she smiled to herself, wanting not
EX BOYFRIEND’S UNCLE CONTRACTED WIFE What if I did?
Chapter 68It was impossible, right? That his condition could be contagious. This nasty side of Jessie. He loved it, yet it scared him. But his silence had lasted for too long. His thoughts were written on his face, replacing the satisfaction that should have been there in stead. “You… what’s wrong?” She asked, affected by his face. Gavin snapped off his thoughts, forcing a smile. “I loved it,” he said, sounding as casual as he could mutter. Jessie’s smile returned. “My turn?” She beamed, half-asking, half-expecting. Gavin scoffed, “Your turn?”“Sure,” he said, “If that’s what you want.”Jessie’s eyes sparkled, glinting with both anticipation and excitement for what was to come. Gavin grabbed her by the neck pulling her closer. He kissed her, tasting the after taste of his cum in her mouth. His kiss lingered, her lips were wet and soft, he bit it and she gasped. Sliding in his tongue, he dominated her mouth with his kiss. His hand found her breast, fondling and caressing
