My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine THEN WHAT ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT?
∆IVORY POV∆"I know it's hard to believe," Eric winked at Alexander, "But whatever that old man saying, everything is true." Old Master Kingston raised his cane, "Who is old man here? You and your father are old man, not me." "Yes... Yes, we are only old," Eric chuckled, "You're just an youngster, who crossed teenage years." Alexander joined Eric in teasing Old Master Kingston, "Too bad, he still thinks he is just a teenager." "You brats, both of you are seriously annoying," Old Master Kingston sighed, "I don't understand how I raised these both ungrateful brats all these years!" Eric and Alexander laughed hearing to his words, looking in my direction, Old Master Kingston said with a warm voice, "I know it's like one plus one offer, but if you're in a relationship with Alex, Eric will be a third wheel always, they've been best buddies for so long, handling them might be hard, so I'm giving you full permission, you can discipline them in any way you wants, none will question you o

∆IVORY POV∆"Damn Ivory," I almost slapped my mouth for being loose, immediately I stepped back trying to be away from Alexander, "Ummm... Nothing, I'm not worried about anything, why would I even be worried? Why should I?" Alexander crossed his arms, "That's my question too, why should you be worried? Did you do anything?" "Not... Nothing," I knew both my body and voice were trembling, it almost came as if in urgency, but there's nothing I could do seriously, it's not my fault but the fault of the man in front of me."I see," he smiled, I can see a wicked grin on his face, this man is quiet dangerous for innocent people like me.The room still had the soft glow of candles, the scent of roses lingering in the air. Everything screamed romance, but my situation with Alexander was… complicated, to call it romance, it won't be lying in my bed but I'm coffin with roses decorated on me, because he is Alexander Kingston.His gaze shifted around the room before landing on me. His lips twi

∆IVORY∆"Miss, is there anyone here to accompany you?" The voice of the nurse broke my chain of thoughts, pulling me back to reality, I lifted my head to look at her, forcing a faint smile to hide the bitterness in my chest. "No, I came alone," I replied softly, with my voice being barely above a whisper, as I sat there in silence, with the IV drip in my hand the only thing keeping me from collapsing entirely, though my body felt weak, while my heart is more weaker being alone at times likes this.She frowned, with a concerned face. "You're too weak to leave alone, please call someone to take you home." I nodded, though deep down, I already knew who I would call. As the nurse walked away, I reached for my phone, my fingers trembling slightly, and I dialed Jacob’s number, I clung to the hope that he’d answer, that maybe, for once, he’d be there when I needed him. The call rang once, then twice before it abruptly ended. A message popped up on my screen, "I’m busy, don’t disturb me.

∆IVORY∆"I’ll think about it," I texted back, though I didn’t want to go. The last thing I needed was to see more people who probably pitied me. But deep inside, I felt that maybe going out to do something, anything, to take my mind off the growing void in my chest.Sitting on my bed, I looked out the window, only to see a dark sky with nothing, just like my current life.Tears threatened to spill, but I swallowed them back. I had cried enough for Jacob, enough for the family who never truly saw me.I shut my eyes closely to sleep, despite knowing it's hard to sleep, the soft sunrays on my face woke me up, stretching my arms, I woke up and walked out of my room only to see the entire house filled with silence.That made me realise Jacob has left for a business trip without even a single word, I’d been trying to convince myself it was just a rough patch. Maybe he needed time and space. But no matter how many excuses I made for him, the void in my chest can't be filled. My bestfriend

∆IVORY∆"Then let’s mingle," I said, crashing my lips onto his before he could say another word, I can feel him stiffened for a minute, probably shocked out of his mind, once he got into it, he didn't waste a minute to deepen the kiss, turning if from a peck to passionate one, making my legs wobble.Gently breaking the kiss, he placed his hands on my shoulders. "You," he said, with a smooth and amused tone, "You’re drunk." "You? Do I look like a thing to you?" I scoffed, pushing him back with an irritated look, as the way he called me, 'you' reminded me of the memories of how Jacob used to refer to me, instead of using my name, "Call me Ivory, or better yet, call me the woman who’s about to forget all about a certain jerk named Jacob, don't I appear like a human with a name?" He chuckled, with a low yet sexy tone, "Ivory, sounds interesting, well, I don’t know what jerk did to you, but he must’ve been an idiot to let go of someone like you." "Exactly!" Pearl shouted from behind

∆IVORY∆"You ungrateful bitch!" My mother's voice followed me as I walked away closing the door with a loud thud.I didn’t turn back, no matter how hard she shouted. I couldn’t either, if I did, I knew I might break, and I refused to give them the satisfaction of seeing me crumble. For a moment, I stood in the empty streets, staring ahead with a blank face, clutching the straps of my bag tightly, I'm controlling myself not to be weak enough to end up in tears.I wasn’t just walking out of their house, I was walking out of their lives, their control, and all the heartbreak they had caused me over years.I went to the flat of Jacob and mine, but it had always been more mine than his. He didn’t like living with me, always finding excuses to stay in his own place. "I’ll come back tomorrow," that's all he said from the day I graduated and moved to live with him, but that tomorrow never seemed to arrive till now. This flat was just another reminder of the emptiness I’d felt for so long

∆IVORY∆"Is this how we always meet eachother?" He whispered in my ear, I stood frozen, as I'm still unable to come out of the shock."How come…?" I finally managed to mutter, of all people to show up here, why is this man?The same man I had kissed in a drunken state at that bar weeks ago, and now he was standing in front of me, smirking like he owned the world, I totally forgot about that embarrassing incident thanks to my family, and my efforts to find a job.Noticing my silence, he leaned closer, "Don’t tell me you’re pretending not to recognize me, Ms. Ivory." Heat flooded my cheeks as I instinctively took a step back, keeping the distance in between us, but his teasing smirk only deepened looking at my embarrassed state.Before I could respond, Jessica’s friend sneered, "Shameless woman, always ready to seduce men, someone like you deserves to be taught a lesson."She grabbed a glass of drink from the table and raised it toward me. I almost expected the drink to be spoiled on

∆IVORY∆"What kind of work are you talking about?" I knew it was a stupid question yet, I asked, as I looked at him, all I could see was his playful smirk, "What kind of work do you want to do apart from working by my side in the company?" I sat stiffly in the car listening to him, his words truly left me embarrassed."I guess you’re talking about a role in your company?” I had said, trying to keep my voice steady hiding the awkwardness.Leaning slightly toward me, Alexander rested his hand on the armrest between us, and I can see his sharp gaze fixed on me, while teasing me, "If not that, what else did you think I meant?" I stammered as my cheeks turned red out of embarrassment, "Nothing!" I adjusted my hair, avoiding his intense gaze.Alexander chuckled, leaning back in the seat, "Well, Ms. Ivory, what’s your answer?" Taking a deep breath, I met his eyes with a determined look, "I'll do it, but not for revenge, just to prove my worth, I let go of the past already." He passed a s

My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine A GRAND BANQUET?
∆IVORY POV∆"Old Master Kingston isn't scary at all," I couldn't help but to remember how kind and sweet he was earlier, I expected him to lash out on us, I thought he would insult me for becoming the wife of his precious son on whom he doted on very much.The family affairs of Kingston's family is quite dynamic, Old Master Kingston is always distant from his eldest son and only grandson, but loves Alexander a lot, that's why the majority of the Kingston family belongs to Alexander.Even after being fiancee of Jacob for so long, I never got to know about Alexander much, maybe it's because I was into only Jacob, and never cared much about others, even now I don't think I would ever know the secrets of this family, as I'm just a contract wife to Alexander Kingston.I was looking at the gifts they sent to the room, seriously I never expected a bride price, and this is too huge.Just as I was caressing the heirloom box, I heard a knock on the door, and a middle aged woman who earlier guid
My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine WHAT KIND OF FORBIDDEN FEELINGS ARE THESE?
∆PEARL POV∆"So beautiful!" Looks like it's not exaggerating when they said that the flowers found in Kingston family garden can't be found anywhere.The garden was glowing under golden sunlight, the gentle fragrance of roses, jasmine, and lilacs filling the air as I walked in between those flowers.It was one of those rare peaceful moments where I could simply admire nature without any distractions. The vibrant petals were dancing in the light breeze, and for the first time in a while, I felt a sense of calm which I never felt before.That was until I heard his voice."You look like one of these flowers, you know, pretty but probably hiding thorns."I sighed before turning around, Eric Lawrence stood a few feet away, hands in his pockets, with an usual smirk on his face.The sunlight made his sharp features even more strikingly attractive, and I hated how effortlessly charismatic he was when people struggling hard just to look attractive, but look at him no need to worry about anyt
My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine DO I REALLY HAVE TO KEEP HIM AROUND, DAD?
∆NO POV∆"I'm not angry with you," Old Master Kingston said, his deep voice filled the living room, "Why would I even angry with you, my dear? In fact, I couldn't bring myself to be angry with you, because you did nothing wrong." Ivory, who had been sitting in a stiffened position finally took a deep breath in relief.For some reason, those words brought an odd sense of relief, as if she had unknowingly been waiting for his approval."I'm actually quite pleased," the old man continued, a rare smile formed up on his face unlike his stern expression like always.His sharp eyes shifted to Alexander, and his smile turned into something smug. "Finally, this aloof and clueless son of mine has managed to marry someone sweet and kind like you, I can be rest assured now thinking my dumb son is in safe hands." Ivory blinked in surprise, while Alexander jusr rolled his eyes.Eric, standing beside Alexander let out an exaggerated gasp before bursting into laughter."Did you just call your own
My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine YOU'RE NOT ANGRY?
∆NO POV∆"I'm scared," Ivory whispered the moment she stepped out of the car. Her fingers clenched the fabric of her dress as her stomach twisted in knots, just as standing in front of a huge mansion, which is intimidating as a hell made Ivory to think about running away without even turning around.She hadn't even taken a step forward, yet she was already regretting coming here.Pulling Alexander's sleeve, Ivory mumbled, "Is it okay to leave?" Eric, ever the bully, snickered beside her. "You can leave if you want, but take your husband with you because that old man is definitely going to kick him out."Ivory swallowed hard, turning to Alexander with pleading eyes. "Maybe we should just...." Before she could finish, Alexander smacked Eric on the back of his head, making him yelp. "Shut up before I bury you in the garden, idiot." Eric rubbed his head with a glare. "Why are you hitting me? I'm just speaking the truth! I'm sure your father is gonna explode when he hears about this ma
My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine YOUNG LADY IS PREGNANT!
∆NO POV∆"What'll happen?" "Old Master is so furious, this time young lady can't escape!" "I never expected long lost daughter of Collins family would be this promiscuous!""Though an adopted daughter, young lady Ivory is very elegant and matured!" The servants of Collins mansion whispered among themselves watching the scene in front of them, the mansion had never felt so suffocating as today.The grand living room was silent except for the sound of Jacob Kingston and Jessica Collins kneeling before the wrath of Old Master Collins.The old man sat on the couch gripping his cane so tightly as if he was controlling his frustration.His aged face, twisted in rage eager to discipline two people kneeling infront of him.His granddaughter, his own flesh and blood, had humiliated their family in the worst possible way, he tried his best to hide everything till now, but things got out of control in the wedding."You ungrateful disgrace!" His voice roared through the room like a violent sto
My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine WHAT AM I EVEN GOING TO DO WITH A MAN LIKE THIS?
∆NO POV∆"Yours?" Ivory asked, her voice sounding almost a whisper. "Are you claiming ownership on me?"Alexander didn't even hesitate, with a proud smile, he nodded, "Yes, any objection?" The priest cleared his throat and announced, "You may kiss the bride."Ivory’s heart jumped to her throat. "Oh no, the kiss! It's not like the first time we are kissing each other, but... But, that and this are different, what am I supposed to do now?" She braced herself, cheeks already burning, mentally preparing for the inevitable. "Is he really going to kiss me in front of everyone? Right here, right now?" The entire hall was silent, holding its breath, watching with anticipation.Just as she thought he would lean in and claim her lips, Alexander did something completely unexpected, he pressed a warm, and gentle kiss on her forehead instead.The crowd gasped. Even Ivory’s breath caught in her throat in surprise."I love keeping things private," Alexander whispered in her ear, "Whether a kiss
My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine YOU'RE MINE!
∆NO POV∆"Did I mishear him?" Ivory blinked at him, and dumbly said while her lips were barely forming the word, "Huh?" Alexander Kingston, the infamous trillionaire bachelor, stood before her with a confident smirk, hands in his pockets, as if he hadn’t just thrown a bomb into the middle of a collapsing wedding."I'm a much better choice, handsome, rich, a gentleman, good at everything, and most importantly, I'm from the Kingston family, so, Ivory, why don't you marry me?"Ivory felt her soul might leave her body for a brief second, "Ummm..." "What?" Sarah almost shouted, practically choking on air, "How is this possible? Why would you marry her?" Old Master Collins' eyes widened in shock, his grip tightening on his cane, as he didn't expect something like this from Alexander."How can she marry yo..." Before Sarah could start another dramatic rant, Alexander raised his hand lazily, stopping her mid-sentence. Then, as if nothing in the world could faze him, he turned back to Ivo
