Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 121

Chapter 121: Could It Be Her?

A wave of intimacy spread instantly.

Selina’s mind went blank. Her breath hitched as she gasped, "Logan..."

"Selina."

Logan pulled away from her lips, his touch lingering, gently biting down before letting go. Seeing her wince, he cupped her face in his hands.

"We’re husband and wife. There’s no one else I would ever love besides you. I don’t want to hear such nonsense again, Mrs. Reid. Got it?"

Selina felt like her brain was deprived of oxygen.

What did he mean by that...? That there would be no one else but her?

So, in other words, he liked her?

But what was there to like about her...?

Beep. Beep. Beep.

Before Selina could process her thoughts, Logan’s phone suddenly rang.

Jack’s voice came through, serious yet filled with excitement. "Sir! I’ve found out that the person from four years ago went to City H after leaving. It’s very likely that she’s there now—"

Selina didn’t catch the rest of his words.

Logan’s fingers slipped from her cheek as his thoughts raced. After a long pause, he finally spoke. "I understand."

Ending the call, he turned to Selina. "I need to head out. Someone will come pick you up tonight, alright?"

Selina replayed those words in her mind—"the person from four years ago."

Bella had mentioned something about four years ago. Jack had just brought it up too.

What exactly happened four years ago...?

Was that person really that important to Logan?

She knew she shouldn’t ask too many questions, but for some reason, a bitter sensation crept into her heart.

Watching Logan’s departing figure, Selina shook her head.

Forget it. Now wasn’t the time to dwell on such things.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a familiar figure.

Andrew?

And in his hands... was that a sheet of piano music?

Strange. Why would Andrew be looking for Logan?

On the other side, Bella spotted Andrew approaching and quickly squeezed out a few tears.

"Bella! So you were here!"

Andrew caught up to her in quick strides, his brows furrowing. "Why are you crying? Did Logan bully you?"

"No... I’m not crying. You must be mistaken."

But the more Bella denied it, the more tears fell. "Andrew, don’t misunderstand. It’s not Logan... It’s Selina..."

"Selina again?!"

Andrew’s anger flared.

Bella was the only girl in their circle—the princess among them all. Everyone doted on her.

And yet now, she was being brought to tears because of Selina?

Andrew turned on his heel, ready to march back. "I’ll make her pay for this!"

"Andrew, don’t!" Bella hurriedly grabbed his arm. "I’m fine. Don’t go back. Logan will just get mad again."

Bella’s assistant couldn’t hold back anymore and spoke up anxiously, "Mr. Martin, please stand up for Miss Bella! She traveled all the way from abroad to bring Mr. Reid a gift, yet just now, Mrs. Reid threw them all out!"

Andrew’s gaze shifted to a broken watch on the ground.

The assistant huffed indignantly. "Honestly, Mrs. Reid is being unreasonable. It’s perfectly normal for Miss Bella to give Mr. Reid gifts!"

Bella bit her lip, looking aggrieved. "Andrew, don’t listen to my assistant. Selina was just warning me to stay away from Logan, that’s all... Don’t blame her..."

"That woman is truly disgraceful!"

Andrew’s face darkened. "You’re the darling of our group—what does Selina have to be jealous of? Does she even deserve to compare? Even my girlfriend has no problem with you, so why is Selina so petty?"

In their circle, Bella held an untouchable status in every man’s heart—especially Andrew’s.

She could come and go from Andrew’s house as she pleased, have dinner with him after work, and not a single one of his past girlfriends had ever complained about it.
