All Chapters of My Dear Ex, Your Uncle Is Mine: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

∆ALEXANDER∆"Eric is right," I thought to myself, remembering our conversation from earlier. "Man, thanks to you, she'll misunderstand me even more," I signed running my hand through hair out of frustration, as I knew our conversation with media will be telecasted and Ivory will see it, if she were to see it, I couldn't even imagine what might happen to me! What will she think of me? What if she also misunderstands me just like everyone? We are already struggling to understand what we are to each other, and now this guy made it worse for me."No misunderstanding dude, I just helped you," Eric had countered confidently with that fish head of his."How exactly?" I frowned leaning back in my car seat."These girls are complicated Alex," he had said, waving his hand like some wise sage who is more experienced in understanding girls, "Unless you provoke them, they'll never admit the truth, with what we did today, if she has even the slightest feelings for you, she’ll react for sure, thi

∆NO POV∆"My engagement?" Alexander raised an eyebrow with an amused smile, "Who told you I'm going to get engaged to him?" "You did!" Ivory huffed, recalling the news telecast where she had seen them personally confirming their engagement. "Last night, you and he told it to paparazzi...." She trailed off, struggling to find the words to continue further.Alexander sighed dramatically. "Just think of it as him dumping me for that beautiful girl over there, happy now?"In fact, Alexander just joked but Ivory took it seriously.Alexander adjusted his cuffs, pretending not to hear the whispers around him.Ivory couldn’t help but feel anger on Alexander’s behalf. Crossing her arms, she fixed a piercing gaze on Eric and his fiancee, as if preparing for battle against their betrayal"This is ridiculous," she slammed her hand on the table, "How can he dump you like that? Just look at you! If I had a boyfriend like you, I would ne..." She cut herself off, realising what she was about to sa

∆ALEXANDER∆"I'm fine," Ivory smiled at me, "Don't worry." "Shut up," I growled, gently tucking her hair behind her ear, "You've no right to say that you're fine, how could you even say that you're fine? First why did you do something so reckless? Why did you push me? What if something happened to you?""I'm sorry, I didn't think that deeper," her expression turned serious, while her fingers tightening around mine. "At that moment I was scared," she whispered. "Scared that you might get hurt, I didn't think about myself, because I thought protecting you must be my first priority." My heart clenched at her words, looking into my eyes, she continued, "Even if something were to happen to me, I don't think there would be barely anyone who would shed a tear for me, but you are different from me, you've a family, and...." Before she could continue, I hugged her, just tightly, tight enough to keep her bound in my arms.How can she say that? How can she believe she has no one when I'm read

∆NO POV∆"We will reach in no time," Alexander said with a gentle smile, as they're preparing to leave.Eric stopped Ivory, and handed her a small box, "A small token of gift from me!" "No," Ivory refused giving it back to him, "I can't accept anything given by you." Eric pinched her cheeks gently, "Ivory, you can stop hating me, as I said I'll not be coming in between you and him, he is all yours, why hating such an innocent man like me?" "Stop it," she brushed off his hand away, Eric just chuckled, Alexander came in at the same time, "Are you teasing her again?" Eric shook his head with a fake pain, "I didn't, I'm giving a gift with a kind heart, but she refused to accept my kindness." "This man? What exactly is he doing?" Ivory thought to herself, "Is he sowing misunderstandings in between me and Alexander? Just like in those TV shows, white lotus bitches act all innocent in front of the big boss, only to make the female lead suffer, is he doing the same?" Alexander smacked o

∆IVORY∆"Don't tell me you already started thinking about it, are you?" Pearl wriggled her eyebrows, as she teased me, using a gentle smack with a pillow bringing me out of my thoughts."Ugh, shut up," I groaned, turning over, and buried my face in the soft sheets beneath me, I'm already tired no more strength to fight or argue, can't even think of anything more.Pearl giggled, but I ignored her and closed my eyes as I'm already tired like hell, just as I closed my eyes, sleep is already waiting for me, and instantly, i was dragged into a comforting wave of sleep.I don't even know how long I was asleep, but when I woke up, the first thing I saw was Pearl happily munching on a snack sitting straight in front of me. "What are you eating?" I asked groggily, rubbing my eyes, as I still couldn't come out of my sleepiness."Shrimp san..sandwich," she replied between bites, looking way too involved in killing the shrimp that's already dead in the sandwich, "Tastes so good, do you want so
