Chapter 6- Look before you leap
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56“You…” Henry controlled his anger before showing a malicious smile and with his cold eyes he said:
"Good, well done, Eliza. But I'm telling you, I wouldn't just leave this matter here! You better be careful and not let me catch you with your lover. If that happens, I'll make sure to punish both of you." 'Sure! Feel free to confront your uncle!' Eliza snickered silently, as her face showed no reaction. She gave Henry one last pensive look with her cold and distant eyes, before walking away with her proud and impassive back. Boom! The sudden sound of the front door slamming loudly behind her was heard. It immediately sent shivers straight through Eliza's heart and her body weakened. She quickly grabbed the railing next to her for support. Eliza felt terrible. Her heart ached excruciatingly. She could clearly feel the pain from the slap in the face Henry had given her, but it was nothing compared to the pain she felt in her heart. "Hmph!" Eliza pursed her lips in self-mockery. Eliza rested for a moment before walking step by step up the stairs while continuing to hold onto the handrail for support. When she finally got back to her room, the first thing she did was take a shower. She stood absurdly still under the shower and let the cold water run down her body. Seemingly unaware that her lips were turning cold and pale, her entire body was also trembling. This can be considered as a bit of a punishment for her disgraceful deed the other night. Eliza felt not an ounce of pleasure in her self-afflicted retribution, instead she is remorseful and ashamed. After a while, Eliza felt she had had enough, so turned off the shower with her trembling hand. Then she wrapped herself in a large towel before exiting the bathroom. Eliza dressed quickly and then she went downstairs to make herself a cup of coffee. There is a comfortable sun lounger on the balcony where she can nestle her body while holding her steaming cup of coffee. Just as she began to relax, her phone, which was lying on the glass table, suddenly vibrated. Eliza took it and opened it nonchalantly. She received a text from 'Little uncle'. The words 'little uncle' displayed on the screen irritated Eliza terribly. Her hand waggled accidentally causing the hot coffee to spill onto the back of her hand. “Hiss” Eliza couldn't help but groan softly due to the burning sensation on her skin. 'What does he want to do now?' Eliza bitterly opened the text message, it's just a short and dominant message: [Add me on W******p.] 'People of his ilk actually knew about W******p?' 'You think I'd add you just because you told me to? You're not an important person!' Eliza poked her fingers fiercely at the words 'little uncle' and treated it as if it was Fredrik's face she was poking at. She was determined not to add him to her W******p, yet Fredrik sent her another text as if he could read her mind. There is only one simple quote written on it: [Look before you leap.] 'This bastard… How dare he threaten me!' Eliza was extremely angry, but she does not have the guts to challenge or defy him. She could only sulk and secretly curse Fredrik as she reluctantly opened her W******p and added him as friends. As soon as they are connected, a photo was sent to her immediately. "Fredrik!" Eliza screamed his name in exasperation as she looked at the photo he just sent her. She was horrified by the ambiguous photo in the bed. On the screen was a picture of her showing her full back and side profile. Anger took over her that made her fingers tremble so much. ["What do you want to do?"] Eliza couldn't write a message, and could only send a voice message to that shameless man! ["Don't you think that's very sexy?"] Fredrik's voice was slightly distorted by the voicemail recording, making it sound even deeper and sexier. However, Eliza has neither the time nor the interest to appreciate it at the moment because she was fuming. ["Sexy my foot! Delete all the pictures you took, you bastard!"] [“How do you address me?”] Fredrik lowered his voice, which was full of menace. However stubborn Eliza was, she would still avoid all danger, especially Fredrik! She tried to calm herself down, taking a deep breath and reminding herself to stay collected when faced with an unscrupulous person. ["Little uncle."] Eliza felt very uncomfortable when she heard her own coquettish voice. But she resisted her abhorrence and persisted in pleasing Frederick: ["Little uncle, a great man rarely stoops to pettiness or complains about past mistakes, don't argue about it with your junior."] She emphasized the word 'junior'. ["Oh? Are there any juniors who would sleep with their seniors?"] Eliza could not answer this question because it was a fact! 'Bear it, I have to bear it.' she thought. ["Little uncle, I know it's my fault. Please have mercy on me, please delete the pictures. After all, it's inappropriate. What if someone accidentally sees those kinds of... pictures on your phone? And mistake yourself for a person of dubious character, it would certainly damage your honorable reputation."]Related chapters

["You must show me your sincerity."] Eliza had racked her brain for every flattering word she could think of to please Fredrik, but that was all he had said. One short sentence, and that's it! He ended their chat just like that! She was very vexed and almost smashed her phone in an uncontrolled rage. Albeit Frederick's actions had provoked her a lot, Eliza couldn't deny that ever since she was entangled with Frederick, she had unconsciously put aside her worries with Henry and even forgot all the sadness, suffering, and despair in her heart. And even though Henry didn't come home all night, it didn't bother Eliza anymore. She was no longer affected and she didn't care about him. — The next morning Eliza drove to work after eating her breakfast. After she married Henry, Eliza continued to pursue her career, never once considering being a full-time housewife. She was the sole rightful heir to the Moore family business. Therefore, she is expected to take over the Moore Corpora
My handsome uncle-in-law is obsessed with me Chapter 8- At the Young family's mansion
Nicole turned around and left angrily after giving Eliza a stern warning. Eliza lowered her eyes and smiled scornfully for a moment. In the afternoon, Eliza received a phone call. It was the housekeeper from the old mansion of the Young family. The housekeeper informed her that a large-scale cocktail party would be held in the old house three days later. The young family was a century-old family that was quite influential in A City. One could imagine the scale of the party. Therefore, Eliza had to be there two days in advance for preparations. She would overlook the size and details of the party, including all the arrangements. Eliza called Henry, but he hung up so she did not call again. The next day she drove back to the young family's old mansion. "Young madam." The housekeeper, Samuel Young, stepped forward with a smile and greeted Eliza. "Good morning Sam, where's Grandpa?" "Old master is in the greenhouse. You can rest in the living room first. I will inform the old m
My handsome uncle-in-law is obsessed with me Chapter 9- Henry was enraged with jealousy
Seeing her reaction had made him even angrier. "Apparently." Henry scoffed as he stared straight at Eliza's shoulder. Her skin was already fair, and it became pink and tender after showering with hot water. It looks really seductive. But when Henry thought that some other men had been savouring this alluring body, he couldn't hold back his anger and the ruthlessness in his heart. He rushed forward, grabbed the bath towel, then mercilessly pulled it away. “Henry, let go!” Eliza did not want to do anything with Henry at this time, so she fought desperately. Henry saw her struggle as resistance, because she didn't want him to touch her. "I am your husband!" Henry scoffed and reached out to pinch Eliza's neck. He violently tore off the bath towel and pressed his body against her. Eliza was forced to step back and lean against the cold tiles. He pinched her chin, lifting it and making her look at his face: "B*tch! You show your innocent looks to who? You look at me with such reluct

Henry was dazed for a moment.He then stared ruthlessly at Eliza and threatened her jeeringly:"I'm letting you off today. Eliza, I won't let you have it easy next time."Eliza opened her eyes in panic and when she saw Henry walk away with chills, Eliza's legs shook like jelly and she then fell to the ground.She was pale in the face and her eyes showed endless despair.What should Eliza do?In the study. Albert looked at his only grandson with a cold face and did not show him a sliver of kindness and gentleness he had towards Eliza."Grandfather."Henry greeted him and walked towards the sofa.When he wanted to sit down, he was stopped by Albert."Stand right there!"Henry frowned and stood reluctantly. He then asked impatiently: "What's the matter?""Are you asking me what the matter is?"Albert stared at Henry, as he was

Henry paused for a moment, but said nothing as he left.**Eliza heard footsteps at the door and became unconsciously alert.This was their wedding room in the old mansion, so she could not stop Henry if he wanted to enter the room. Fortunately, the sound of the steps disappeared after a long period of silence.Henry had left. Eliza breathed a sigh of relief.After waiting for a while, she got up and locked the door. That was after she was assured that he would not return. She then lay back on the bed mentally tired and soon fell asleep full of exhaustion.Eliza did not sleep well that night. She got up early in the morning and got dressed. She then went out at six. At this time, Albert was practicing Tai Chi and other exercises in the garden. Eliza decided to go to the garden where Albert was to get some fresh air.However, Eliza ended up joining

"Sam, did Fredrik mention when he comes back?" Henry went to the airport to pick up Fredrik in the morning, but Fredrik went somewhere else halfway, so Henry came back alone. It was now less than an hour before the party began.Yet, there was still no news from Fredrik. Of course she had Fredrik's phone number, but Eliza did not want to call him at all."Don't worry Eliza, I'll call him now and ask."When Samuel stopped talking, he turned around to call Fredrik.After a while, Samuel came back and said that Fredrik was not finished with his errands yet, but he would come before the party began.Eliza acknowledged it by nodding her head. She then turned around to check out the cold dishes and drinks at the party.Before the party began, she informed all the servants again."Eliza, is everything ready?""Grandpa, just a moment." Eliza answered Albert and then turne

Even the celebrity's smiling face, who had previously said she was envious, became awkward. She then pretended to talk to the person next to her. Nevertheless, out of the corner of her eye, she's still paying attention to Eliza, as if she's waiting for a good show.The rest of the people watched in anticipation in secret and exchanged a silent knowing gaze with each other.Although Eliza noticed their attitude, she showed no concern in her expression.She even rejoiced that Nicole had been low profile due to her awkward status.There were very few people in A City who knew that Nicole was her half-sister."Sorry, excuse me for a moment.""It's okay, go ahead. There are a lot of things waiting for you to solve at the party, do not worry about us.""Excuse me." Eliza said it with a graceful smile on her face before walking towards Henry."Henry" Eliza went to Henry as if she did not s

"Uncle."Fredrik walked over and greeted Albert with a smile."Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the road, so I arrived late. I brought some presents as a sign of my good wishes."After Fredrik had finished speaking, his assistant who followed him immediately handed Fredrik the presents."This is for you."Fredrik took out a box and gave it to Samuel, who was standing next to Albert, and said;"I know you love making tea. This is a set of purple teapots (Zisha) that I saw at an auction before I came back."Albert smiled and said, "We are family. You did not have to buy me a present."Whatever he was thinking in his heart, it would at least seem warm on the outside."Do not mention it." replied Fredrik.He then looked at Henry and Eliza and said; "Henry, Eliza, I also have you presents for both of you. Henry, yours is a handmade mechanical watch in a limited edition

"Babe, don't be afraid. Answer me." Fredrik beckoned her with a softer voice, it's like a candy wrapped in a poisoned wrapper. "..I..." Eliza was almost bewitched to answer. Still, she fought back and violently bit the tip of her tongue, and the pain brought her back to her senses. "Fredrik, don't you think this question is pointless? We're just hookup partners. All we need to do is enjoy each other on the bed, without involving any romantic feelings. If you can't afford to play the game, then I'm sorry, I'll find someone else." Eliza raised her head, refusing to allow herself to back down, and she bravely met Fredrik's terrifying eyes. After a moment of deadlock, Fredrik let out a dangerous smile and said, "A hookup partner? And you're going to find someone else if I can't afford to play the game?" "Yes." 'Eliza, you shouldn't back down now.' she urged herself. 'You can't be led by this bastard all the time. You have to put up a barrier or he'll eat you whole without any bones

Fredrik then gently picked up Eliza and carried her into a princess style before kissing her fondly on her forehead. Fredrik took a moment to stare at Eliza's beautiful face. There is a rare hint of tenderness in his eyes, invisible to anyone. He hid her face in his chest to make sure no one would recognize her when they left the private room. —It was already a few hours later when Eliza woke up dizzy. "Ouch!" She frowned as she felt her head ache. Eliza put her hand on her forehead to give it a little massage. A moment later, she turned her head to check her surroundings. 'Am I in a hotel suite?' "Are you awake now? Did you get enough sleep?"Eliza raised her head to see Fredrik standing at the door. He then walked towards her with a bowl of hangover soup in hand. Eliza looked at him with resentment in her eyes. She remembered that Fredrik made her drunk. But before she could start whining at him, Fredrik was already seen standing at the edge of the bed and offering her the

Now Eliza could only pray that time would pass faster.On the other hand, Henry was immersed in the sweetness of the past and was kind to her. He brought her food every now and then. In addition, he would remind her to eat slowly with a gentle voice and serve her well. "I'm full." Eliza put down her chopsticks after eating a few bites and said.Henry frowned and looked at her, "Your appetite decreased so much compared to last time. You should eat more.""I can not eat anymore." Eliza forced a smile and peeked at Fredrik out of the corner of her eye. Although he did not seem to look at her, she knew that his attention was on her. Everything she ate seemed to be stuck in her throat, which was terribly uncomfortable.Eliza suddenly got up.In Daniel and Henry's anxious and puzzled eyes, she said embarrassed, "I'm going to the bathroom. I drink too much and feel uncomfortable." She hurried out after speaking."This child still behaves recklessly even when she's grown up." said Daniel hel

Eliza wanted to monitor Fredrik to prevent him from saying things that should not be said, but she had no opportunity to do so. If she asked to go with them, it would only make Daniel suspicious. Therefore, she could only give up in the end. "Dad, uncle, I'm going first.""Okay, work hard." Daniel patted his daughter on the head and said with a smile."Dad, I'm not a child anymore," Eliza complained helplessly.Then she turned quickly and left without looking at Fredrik. For some reason, she always felt that she was childish in front of her father, so she did not want to let Fredrik see it. As for why, she had never thought so deeply about it.It was because Eliza was worried that Fredrik would deliberately say something to Daniel, that made her absent-minded all morning.On the other hand, Daniel and Fredrik had a nice conversation in the lounge on the top floor. Daniel knew Fredrik's abilities before they made contact, and after they got to know each other, Daniel was even more a

Boom.Eliza smiled scornfully when she heard the door slam shut.She would rather Henry never come back than meet him every day and fight endlessly with him.She really wants to sleep now that she is tired and exhausted.Later, after Eliza had taken a shower, she was surprised to discover that Henry had actually returned.He put the supper in his hand on the small coffee table in the bedroom with a cold face. Eliza just took a quick glance before she went to the dressing table and sat down to dry her hair with a hair dryer."I bought you a midnight snack.""And so?" Eliza said scornfully, "Should I be grateful for that? Henry, is it fun to give me a reward after punishment every time?"There is no denying that Eliza's questions made Henry feel guilty. He slammed the door and left. While driving, Henry accidentally noticed that Eliza's favorite shop by the side of the road was still open, so he went in to buy her some pastries. He thought Eliza would appreciate what he did, but he was

The driver was on the phone, "Yes, I went to check the old house. I bought it back a long time ago and never visited it. Okay, tomorrow..."His voice suddenly stopped as if something caught his attention."Hey Fredrik. Hello? Are you coming tomorrow?""Talk to you again." He hung up quickly.Fredrik drove the car closer to the sidewalk and slowed down. As he got closer, he was finally able to confirm that it was his little wildcat. Fredrik curled his lips when he remembered that Moore's villa was in the same area.Honk Honk.He honked deliberately. He saw that the despondent and pitiful Eliza quickly raised her head, and her eyes seemed to shine.She got up quickly and walked eagerly forward."Hey, is it convenient for me to hitch a ride?"As soon as Eliza stopped speaking, the window lowered.She was shocked for a moment when she saw Fredrik's face. The smile on her lips disappeared immediately."It's you! Why are you here?""Wouldn't you take the ride now that you know it's me?""O

The car drove slowly until they reached the front of the Moore family's villa. Eliza got off as soon as the car stopped.Daniel and his wife Elizabeth Howard waited at the front door to meet the couple. Elizabeth was glad to see both her daughter and her son-in-law together. The two rarely came to visit ever since their wedding, which made Elizabeth feel a little disappointed.Henry especially brought some presents. He handed Daniel a set of ivory chess boards, and as for Eliza's mother, Elizabeth, he gave her an expensive red jade necklace. Apparently Henry had put in some effort when choosing his gifts, which made Daniel & Elizabeth very happy.Eliza stood aside with a faint smile and watched Henry greet Daniel and Elizabeth politely.For a moment she felt that everything had gone back to before the marriage. At the time, Henry was so gentle when they returned home together, but now... everything was just a hypocritical illusion."Eliza, what's wrong? What are you thinking?""Nothi

Eliza felt, however, that Fredrik was a black-hearted bastard and was only good at teasing her. Can he surpass the current Young family in the future? Hmph, she would not believe it."Why? Don't you believe it?""No. I do not believe it." Eliza pouted.She did not think Fredrik could be so amazing.No matter what, she would not believe it."How about this? Make a bet with me and grant me a wish if you lose.""Ah, you're the worst, dad. I'm not going to bet with you. You're obviously cheating on me on purpose. The older, the wiser. How could I question your judgment?"She simply hated Fredrik, so she did not want to look up to him. She would not do anything that would increase the morale of others and ruin her own prestige."Haha, you silly girl." Daniel laughed.His daughter was his precious source of happiness, and he would be in a good mood as long as he was with her
My handsome uncle-in-law is obsessed with me Chapter 24- Office
Eliza sighed slightly when she heard the busy tone. Henry had hung up before she could say anything more.What could she do?She went up to the study to get the file Henry needed. After that, Eliza took her own things and left hurriedly.She did not want to be late for work, so she drove at full speed.Luckily, the morning rush had passed and there were only a few red lights on the road.However, she was still five minutes late when she arrived at Henry's company.She called Henry because she wanted his secretary to come and get the documents from her downstairs, but Henry refused in a harsh tone."The secretary is busy preparing materials for the meeting. Send it up now. Hurry up." Henry hung up unceremoniously after he had finished speaking.Eliza took a few deep breaths to resist the urge to throw the documents in the trash. She thought Henry might need the documents asap, and for her
