Fall For “My Husband’s Uncle” By Janet Macadam

Chapter 17 

She endured the pain in her heart and decisively blacklisted the number. At that moment, the world seemed to have lost its color. 

She stood on the side of the road, not knowing where to go. 

She didn’t want to go to the villa. Her uncle’s house, which she had lived in for 20 years, was not her haven either. 

Where else could she accommodate herself? 

She looked at the cars coming and going and felt so lonely for the first time. 

At this moment, Carlos‘ car was waiting for a traffic light.

When the traffic light turned green, his assistant was driving over. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly rushed out of the roadside, so he quickly braked. 

Carlos was reading a document when he leaned forward. The document in his hand also fell to the ground. 

“Sir, someone suddenly crossed the road and I accidentally bumped into her.” 

“Go down and take a look,” he ordered indifferently. 

Sam immediately got out of the car and helped her up. 

She didn’t know what she was thinking just now. When she saw that everyone was walking toward the opposite side of the road, she came to her senses and wanted to go over, but the red light was on. 

The car only grazed her a little, but she fell to the ground. Her elbow was scraped and hurt badly. 

Sam helped her up and shouted, “How are you? Didn’t you see the red light?” 

“I’m sorry, I… I didn’t do it on purpose. I thought it was a green light again.” She apologized in a hurry. 

“Be careful next time!” 

Looking at her pale face, Sam couldn’t bear to criticize her too much and only soften his voice and remind her to be careful. 

She kept apologizing and turned to leave, but she felt a sharp pain in her ankle. 

She didn’t notice that she had sprained her ankle in a panic just now. Now, as she walked, she felt a sharp pain in an instant. 

She fell to the ground awkwardly. 

Sam was about to help her up when the back door opened. Mr. Lawson who had always paid no attention to what was happening outside and only knew to work, actually got off the car! 

Carlos seemed to be extremely impatient. His expression was terrifyingly gloomy as he directly picked up Edith from the ground and threw her into the 

car. 

Startled, Edith struggled, but an order came from above her head. “If you move again, I’ll throw you into the sea to feed the fish!” 

Edith frowned and was a little unhappy when she heard that. 

But… when she saw that familiar face, she was no longer so scared. 

She thought it was a joke now, but in the future, she would know that he really had a private sea area and kept a group of Cannibal Fish. These words were definitely not a joke! 

He threw her on the seat of the car in disgust as if he was throwing something.

Even the seat was made of real leather, her body fell painfully. 

“What are you doing?” 

“You still need to practice your scam skills. Do you want to die by trying to blackmail me at a red light?” He frowned and said in a cold voice. He stared at her with his deep eyes. 

For some reason, he was actually a little worried when he saw her despondent look. 

Although she would dodge his car, he was afraid that she would die under another wheel in the next second. 

She didn’t look well. She looked like a doll, as if she would break at any time. 

At that moment, his heart trembled slightly. 

Her faint sadness made people feel sad. Previously, when he met her, she was always full of energy and always sharp–tongued when she lost her temper. But just now, she kept apologizing like a child who had made a mistake, which made people feel sorry for her. 

He had always been indifferent, but at this moment, he actually felt soft–hearted, so he brought her up. 

Edith was a little angry. “So what? Does it have anything to do with you?” 

“Sam, tell her that does it have anything to do with me?”

“I just checked. A piece of paint on the car was peeled off by this lady’s backpack. It will cost at least 20 thousand dollars to fix.” 

Edith’s jaw dropped when she heard that. Her mouth was agape for a long time. 

What kind of paint was it? It was so expensive! 

“Are you trying to trick me?” 

“This is a limited–edition Maybach. This kind of paint can only be found in the original German factory. If you don’t believe me, we can go through the legal process,” Sam said seriously, without any intention of bluffing. 

Legal process… 

As soon as she heard this, she was suddenly at a loss. 

“Alas and alack, I haven’t recovered from the emotional trauma yet. And now I’m undertaking a huge sum of compensation. What should 1 do?”
