All Chapters of Hired by my Uncle's Bestfriend: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

"This is part of being married to each other, Jermaine," said Demitri, slowly removing his clothes. "No—no!!! It can't be!!" She stepped back as her husband approached. "Sweetheart, there's nothing more you can do. We're married now, what else can you say to me? Besides, I've invested a lot in you. Perhaps it's time for you to reciprocate everything..." he murmured as they neared the bed. She sat down on the soft mattress, realizing she was the only one sleeping in it. Her spouse stood by the door, an extension of that room, so as not to arouse suspicion from their housemates that they weren't sleeping side by side. "But, Demitri... we're only married on paper!" She continued to look for a way to stop him, holding onto her clothes to avoid his touch. The man stopped in front of her. Gently, he held her chin and looked into her eyes. "Is what I give you still not enough, Jermaine? I'm only asking this now, but can't you grant me this one thing?" Jermaine felt the intensity in h

"W-what are you going to do?" she asked as he pinned her down on the bed. "This," he said, kissing her with fervor. "I know you're jealous, that's why you're acting this way. I'm sorry I didn't notice you right away... it's my fault," he said between kisses. She smiled at what her husband said. He really knew how to handle her tantrums. She hugged him and responded to his kisses. They indulged in each other for hours. She didn't understand why she always fell asleep afterward. But the second time they made love was more special. She woke up to find him still beside her, hugging her tightly and sleeping soundly. The man suddenly spoke, "Are you trying to make me melt with that stare? I know I'm handsome, but don't make it so obvious that you like me too." "Huh!" She averted her gaze from the man, "Too? I like you too? Why? Do you like me?" The man blinked rapidly and turned to face her, "Isn't it obvious?" He brushed her hair aside. She looked at him, their eyes meeting,

As she was working on her report, her husband suddenly pulled her into the bathroom to shower together. He clearly had plans for her. It had been a week since anything had happened between them, and this man had been making her his breakfast, lunch, and dinner. She just went along with it to avoid upsetting him. After their heated moment, with a bit of showering, Demi took her to the court. She was surprised to see so many people in basketball uniforms. "Is the league today?" she asked him. "Yes, you forgot, didn’t you? I’m always on your mind," he replied with a grin. "You're so silly!" she said, pinching his side. "Ah— I love you," he said, forming a heart with his fingers. "Kiss me if you—" she started, but Demi kissed her suddenly. She was speechless. "I’m quick to respond," he said, giving her chin a playful squeeze. She noticed the Powerpuff girls glaring at her again, as if she had done something wrong. She returned their gaze, looking them up and down. "Why

Demi said goodbye as he headed to town. She didn't go with him because of her report. Her thesis was almost done, so they would be heading back to Manila soon. She went out and took a walk. She saw a group of women there. She approached them. "Good afternoon," she said politely. "Oh, it's you, miss. Would you like some?" An old woman offered her a banana cue. "Oh, yes.. thank you," she sat down beside them, "how are you doing here?" "We're fine, miss," they replied. "You don't have any problems?" she asked. They looked at each other. They were all around fifty years old or older. "Could you ask sir why they deduct one hundred pesos from us every week?" an old woman asked, "in a month, that's about four to five hundred pesos." "Okay, what explanation did they give you about the deduction?" he asked. "They just said at Jessa's office that it’s for emergency purposes." "How long has this been going on?" "About five years, maybe." "Why don't you complain to Demi?"

"Maine," Jessa called out to me, waving, "let's go over here," pointing to a spot behind the court. The tree there provided ample shade, making it a pleasant place despite the bright sun. "This place is nice," she said to me, admiringly. "Lea and the others are coming later. Does sir Demi. know you're with me?" she asked, making sure. "No, he's not around," I replied. She smiled, but it was more of a sly grin. "We'll just stay here. Oh, here they come," she said as Lea, Carla, and Andres approached. "Why is there a guy?" I asked her, feeling a bit uneasy. "Andres is gay, don't worry," she said, laughing. "Did you bring the snacks?" "Yes, they're here," Andres replied. Andres was a good-looking guy, but I'd heard he had a bad reputation, known to be a bit of a creep. As we drank, I noticed the girls giving me sideways glances. Jessa kept whispering to Andres, making me even more uncomfortable. "I'm feeling dizzy," I told them, trying to sound convincingly unsteady.
