Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164: Selina Is Jealous

Bella stammered, her face deathly pale. "I just... I just forgot for a moment... Luke, I didn’t do it on purpose."

Selina clicked her tongue twice. "Miss Hayes says she forgot, so let’s just assume she did. Logan, let’s head to the auction hall."

Logan cast Bella a cold glance. "Suit yourself."

Bella staggered, nearly losing her balance.

As the two of them walked away, she clenched her fists tightly, unwilling to accept defeat. Tears welled up and finally fell as she choked out, "Luke, I didn’t expect Selina to hate me this much. Logan and I are just ordinary friends... Maybe I shouldn’t have come back to the country..."

But instead of the comfort she expected, Luke simply asked, "Bella, did you really forget to tell me they were married?"

Bella’s entire body stiffened before she quickly turned even more pitiful. "Luke, are you doubting me too?"

Luke hesitated, feeling a pang of guilt. "Bella, no matter what, you and Logan broke up. He has a family now—it’s time to let go."

Bella nearly lost her mind. This is NOT what I wanted to hear!

"But Luke, Logan and Selina’s marriage is just a contract! They don’t even love each other! Selina has had so many boyfriends I can’t even count them—I’m only worried that Logan won’t be happy..."

By the end of her sentence, Bella was sobbing uncontrollably.

Luke wanted to console her, but reason held him back.

At first, he had mocked Selina because Bella had told him that she and Logan were supposed to get married—until a vixen named Selina came in and ruined everything.

Naturally, Luke had assumed Selina was in the wrong.

But after seeing her today and learning the truth, he no longer thought that was the case.

"Bella, whether she’s had boyfriends or not—that’s for Logan to worry about. If he doesn’t mind, why do you?"

Bella continued crying. "Luke, you don’t understand. Only I can make Logan happy. If their marriage is a mistake, then it should be—"

"How do you know it’s a mistake?"

For the first time, Luke found her unfamiliar, his voice hoarse. "Bella, when Logan wasn’t married, I supported you. But now he is. You’re not planning to be the other woman, are you?"

Bella froze, barely holding her expression together. "Of course... Of course not! Luke, how could you think that? Logan and I are just like siblings!"

She quickly added, "If they’re happy, I’ll give them my blessing from afar. Luke, don’t worry, I’m the eldest daughter of the Hayes Family—I would never stoop so low as to interfere in someone else’s marriage."

Luke finally looked satisfied. "Good. Bella, whatever you do, just don’t be a homewrecker. Logan hates people like that."

The mention of homewreckers made Luke’s expression darken slightly.

In the Reid Family, the story of Amelia and Anna was no secret. As Amelia’s favorite biological son, Luke knew exactly how his mother had climbed to the top—by taking another woman’s place.

Whether or not Selina was a vixen, Logan had married her. That made them husband and wife.

No matter how unsuitable they were, it wasn’t up to outsiders to judge.

Bella let out a soft sigh. "Luke, I understand. As long as Logan is happy, that’s all that matters. By the way, you should go apologize to Selina later. Calling her a vixen was a bit too much."

At that, all of Luke’s previous doubts vanished into thin air.

Bella had just been humiliated, yet she was still concerned about whether Selina would be upset?

Yeah, no way she would do anything shameless.

Bella smiled gently, watching as Luke walked away.

The moment he disappeared, her expression twisted into something dark and vicious.

Selina, I will make sure you fall into complete ruin!

Auction hall.

The charity auction did not have private rooms; everyone’s seats were arranged in the main hall, and even Logan was no exception.

The moment they sat down, a chilling voice sounded from the side.

"Big Brother is here too? Could it be that there’s something that even you have your eyes on today?"

Selina frowned and turned her head, spotting Owen.

She looked at Logan and casually asked, "Did you hear that? Sounds like a dog barking."

"You—" Owen almost lost his composure. He gritted his teeth before sneering, "You must be here for the final auction item—the South City land, right?"

South City land?

Selina blinked.
