All Chapters of Desired by my Ex-fiance's Uncle: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

When Jasmine got home that afternoon, she met her adoptive parents, Timothy and Gloria Yates, sitting on the couch, engaged in what seemed like a deep conversation. She wiped the tears from her eyes and cleared her throat, so it wouldn’t seem like she had been crying. “Good evening, Father. Mother,” she greeted, drawing their attention to her. Timothy gave her a curt nod in response while Gloria’s lips pressed into a thin, disapproving line as she eyed Jasmine from head to toe. Ever since they had discovered Jasmine wasn’t their daughter, and reunited with their real daughter, Charlotte, they had developed a sort of coldness for her and basically discarded her. “Why didn’t you answer my calls?” Gloria demanded in a scolding tone. “Do you think you can just do whatever you want?” Jasmine's brows furrowed, and she quickly pulled out her phone to check if she had a missed call. Sure enough, a notification of 5 missed calls stared back at her and her eyes widened in surprise

Jacob’s jaw nearly dropped as his gaze landed on his estranged uncle, Asher, who hadn’t been in the country for years. His eyes flickered to how possessively Asher held Jasmine and a twinge of jealousy ignited in his chest, but he masked it with a strained smile. “U-uncle, it’s been so long,” the tone of his voice was a complete contrast to how he truly felt. “When did you come back?” Jacob’s blurt had alerted his other family members and they turned their attention towards Asher. Jacob’s mother and father, Richard and Laura Wayne, shared displeased glances with each other as they saw Asher, but they hid it with forced smiles. “Asher, little brother, you finally decided to return after being far away for so long,” Richard piped in a fake cheery voice from where he stood. “What’s it been…seven years?” “It’s good to see you, Asher,” Laura added, her voice mirroring her husband’s. “Welcome back.” Asher finally tore his gaze from a still astonished Jasmine, but kept his han

Charlotte was taken aback by Jacob’s sudden outburst and her face contorted into a frown. “Jacob, what has gotten into you?” She demanded as she tugged at his arm. “Why do you care so much about Jasmine being with your uncle?”Her words flew over Jacob’s head as he yanked his arm free from her grip. And all he saw was red as he stormed towards Asher and Jasmine. “This relationship will not happen!” He spat and attempted to reach for Jasmine, but Asher swiftly stepped forward, positioning himself in front of Jasmine to shield her.His brow arched as he stared down at Jacob’s seething figure. “And who are you to declare that? You’ve already chosen your partner. Go back to her and stop making a fuss.”Jacob’s fists tightened as his gaze alternated between Asher and Jasmine before settling on Jasmine in a venomous glare. “You’ll pay for this,” he sneered. “You’ll pay for humiliating me like this.”“Humiliating you?” Jasmine scoffed as she stepped away from behind Asher, finally musterin

Jasmine took a deep breath, and her hands smoothened out the bodice of the white lace dress she wore as she stared at her reflection in the full length mirror. Her long blonde hair was plaited into a French braid, and secured with a white satin ribbon. Her face was covered in minimal makeup which accentuated her delicate features.The short dress hugged her petite curves in all the right places and complimented her long, tanned legs. She didn’t feel quite like herself, but she had to admit, she looked beautiful. The stylist Asher hired to get her ready did a good job.“Ma’am, I must say you look very stunning,” the stylist gushed as she admired Jasmine’s reflection, almost as though she overheard her thoughts.“Mr Wayne will not be able to take his eyes off you all through the party.”A faint blush crept up Jasmine’s cheeks at the compliment. It had been five days since she’d signed the marriage contract with Asher, and tonight, he was hosting a party to announce their marriage to h

The reporters’ eyes followed Asher’s finger to Charlotte and Jacob, who suddenly froze like deers caught in headlights as all the cameras now shifted towards them.“Where are you both going, dear nephew?” Asher continued, his tone in between mocking and edgy. “The party hasn’t even gotten started.”Jacob and Charlotte shifted uncomfortably under the weight of so many eyes on them. Charlotte scrambled for a way to get out of the embarrassing situation she had tried to avoid.“This party is too boring for us, and that’s why we are leaving,” she finally retorted, dusting invisible lint from the bodice of her red, slip dress as she nudged Jacob. “Isn’t that right, Jakey?”Jacob cleared his throat awkwardly, and adjusted the lapel of his suit as he equally straightened his stance. “Yes, indeed. We wouldn’t have even come here if my grandmother hadn’t forced me.”“What are you talking about, you silly brat?” Ophelia’s voice shot out from among the guests as she came into view.She was impe
