Chapter 1
After my parents passed away unexpectedly, I was brought home by my father’s sworn brother, who said he would be my family from now on.
He was handsome and gentle and took good care of me. He was ten years older than me and was the person I had a crush on since I first fell in love.
After graduating from college, when I mustered up the courage to confess my feelings, I ran into him with a red face and confused eyes.
Before I could react, he pressed me to the bed and kissed me sparsely. He took me like a beast and my body was torn apart. I gritted my teeth and endured his galloping again and again.
But I saw his sleeping face in the morning and ran away shyly.
But he acted as if nothing had happened, until a month later, I saw him buy a pink diamond for 6 million dollars on the news. “I want to give this ring to the person I love most.”
I was very excited. It turned out that he didn’t show his feelings to give me a surprise. I dressed up to welcome his feelings.
But Jamie intimately embraced a woman and walked in.
“Georgia, this is my fiancée, Lane.”
My smile froze at the corner of my mouth and my heart felt like it was hit by a blunt object and my face turned pale.
——
“Does this little girl not like me? Why is her face so pale?”
Lane said aggrievedly, but she looked at me with a hint of resentment.
Jamie glanced at me, frowned slightly and looked unhappy.
“Why did you forget the rules? You don’t even say hello when you meet someone.”
My heart was filled with bitterness. In the past, when I was a little bit different, he was so nervous that he found the best doctor to check me, but now he only blamed me.
I opened my mouth, but I really didn’t know how to address her, so I lowered my head and said weakly, “Hello, Miss Ramsey. I’m sorry, I’m not feeling well. I’m going back to my room first.”
After saying that, I turned around and fled in embarrassment.
“Does this little girl like you?”
Lane said half-jokingly, but Jamie’s words broke my heart again.
He said casually, “What are you talking about? I am her guardian, how could I like her? Be good, don’t let your imagination run wild. I’ve given you the pink diamond. Don’t you understand my feelings?”
I couldn’t help but let my tears fall. I threw myself on the bed and cried like rain.
It turned out that he had ignored the group’s project a few days ago and insisted on flying abroad just to buy the pink diamond for Lane.
Lane was Jamie’s secretary. I knew she had feelings for Jamie. I once tried to ask him, “Jamie, that secretary seems to like you?”
He raised his head, rubbed the top of my head lovingly and said disdainfully, “How could I like someone like that? If I like someone, it should be someone as cute as you.”
At that time, my shy heart was beating wildly and my cheeks became hot.
Now, I didn’t expect that the clown was actually me.
I took out my cell phone and called my aunt, whom I had just contacted a while ago. “Aunt, I decided to accept the admission letter from the college in Abadon, go there to study for a master’s degree and live with you.”
Aunt’s voice was trembling with excitement. “Really? That’s great, but will Jamie agree? After all, he…”
Aunt might have noticed my feelings for Jamie a long time ago and asked me carefully.
“He agrees, Aunt.”
After hanging up the phone, I got up and prepared to pour a glass of water. When I turned around, Lane was looking at me with a sneer on her lips.
She was wearing a silk suspender nightgown and there was a large kiss mark on her exposed skin. You could imagine how fierce the battle was just now.
Lane proudly touched the mark. “He’s really like a young man who has never tasted meat. He keeps tossing and turning over and over again. If I hadn’t said I wanted to come out for a drink of water, he wouldn’t let me go until now, you know?”
Chapter 2
I didn’t want to hear about her and Jamie’s affair. I raised my foot to leave, but she grabbed my wrist.
Lane looked at me sarcastically. “Why can’t you listen to it anymore? You have shameful thoughts about your uncle, who raised you. Georgia, you are really cheap. Do you think if Jamie knew your thoughts, he would be disgusted and never want to see you again?”
I was deeply hurt by her words. Thinking of what Jamie said just now, he would definitely hate me if he knew. I staggered and almost fell.
“Let go.”
Lane suddenly sneered and threw the cup in my hand to the ground, then she screamed and fell to the ground and her wrist was just cut by the broken glass.
Before I thought about what tricks she was going to play, Jamie came in a hurry in pajamas.
He gently helped Lane up. “Are you okay? Your wrist is broken?”
Lane sobbed and said with a wronged look, “Don’t blame Georgia. She just couldn’t accept me for a while and pushed me in anger. I believe she didn’t mean it.”
Jamie suppressed his anger and looked at me, his face full of disappointment.
“Georgia, you are already an adult. Why are you still acting like a child? Apologize to Lane.”
A wave of grievance surged in my heart and I looked at him stubbornly. “I did nothing wrong. I won’t apologize.”
Lane said in a teasing tone, “Jamie, just think that I accidentally fell. Don’t blame Georgia. After all, she has been with you for so long. You scolded her because of me. She…”
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Jamie’s cold voice. “I just adopted her for the sake of her dead parents. How can you really think of yourself as the eldest daughter of the Harding Family? Apologize to me now.”
Jamie’s angry eyes fell on me, as if he wanted to torture me to death. Seeing that I didn’t speak, he grabbed my wrist and asked me, “Do you know you are wrong?”
I looked up and stared at him closely. “I am not wrong.”
Jamie angrily threw me hard and my gravity was unstable and my stomach hit the corner of the table heavily and fell to the ground.
My stomach instantly felt like a knife was twisting and my body trembled.
I looked up at Jamie. “It hurts so much; help me.”
Jamie saw this and his eyes flashed with helplessness and heartache. “Georgia, what’s wrong with you?”
When he approached me, Lane said with a painful expression, “Jamie, my wrist hurts so much.”
Jamie stopped and quickly picked up Lane. “I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Lane smiled proudly at me in Jamie’s arms.
My lower body suddenly spasmed and a warm flow of blood flowed out.
When I was sent to the operating room, the doctor said regretfully, “The child can no longer be saved.”
Tears fell unconsciously from the corners of my eyes. It turned out that I had Jamie’s child that night.
It was just that I lost him before he came to this world.
But it was okay. If Jamie knew, he would definitely hate me even more and think that I was a shameless woman.
It was his luck that an unexpected child was gone.
After the operation, I dragged my heavy body home. The villa was quiet. Jamie really didn’t come back.
I fell asleep in bed. I didn’t know how long I slept. I was pulled up by a strong force.
I opened my eyes, it was Jamie. He was sweating, his chest kept rising and falling, as if he had just finished a marathon, his eyes were full of familiar worry.
“Why don’t you answer the phone at home? Are you deliberately making me worry and asking me to come back? Georgia, you are not young anymore. Can you stop playing such childish tricks? As long as you can recognize your identity and abide by the law, I will not ignore you even if I marry a wife.”
Chapter 3
“But you have to know that I am your elder and this is the only relationship between us, do you understand?”
I felt bitter in my heart. It turned out that he had seen my feelings for him a long time ago, so was this a warning to me?
I took the phone and sure enough, there were dozens of missed calls.
“I was just sleeping too deeply and didn’t hear it. I didn’t mean to not answer it.”
Jamie sneered, “Do you think I will believe it? Look, it’s noon now. Who would still be asleep? And since that time, we agreed that we would never not answer each other’s calls. You knew how anxious I would be if I couldn’t get through to you. Have you forgotten?”
Three years ago, my classmates and I went to the cinema to watch a movie. My phone was muted. Jamie, who was already on the plane, couldn’t get through to me, so he threatened to fly back to the city, causing a lot of trouble.
When he saw me in the cinema, he was so scared that he trembled all over. He hugged me tightly in his arms and his eyes were wet.
“Georgia, don’t not answer my calls in the future, otherwise I will go crazy.” It was also at that time that I had a crush on him like a young girl in love.
After experiencing his madness, no matter where I was, my phone was always fully charged. After all, I answered his calls in seconds, just to prevent him from worrying. “I really overslept and didn’t hear the call. It wasn’t intentional, Uncle Jamie.”
After hearing my address, he froze and the look in his eyes when he looked at me had an emotion I couldn’t see clearly.
“Why did you suddenly call me that?”
Facing his deep gaze, I tried to suppress my emotions and raised a smile. “Is there anything wrong with calling me that? You are my uncle.”
He opened his mouth and looked at me deeply, his tone full of anxiety and impatience.
“Whatever you want. For you, I left Lane alone at the venue. You should pack up now and come with me and apologize to her by the way. I don’t know what will happen if I leave you alone at home.”
I wanted to refuse, but I shut up when I saw his eyes.
I was just a burden to him. He was just my father’s sworn brother, but he had raised me for ten years in vain. Maybe I shouldn’t embarrass him anymore.
“Okay.”
Seeing that I agreed, he breathed a sigh of relief, but was stunned when he saw me go out and get in the car.
“Why are you so pale?”
I was surprised that he finally noticed my abnormality. Just when I was about to explain, he spoke again in an impatient tone. “Did you deliberately make yourself look like this just to attract my attention? Georgia, you…”
Suddenly, my throat began to feel bitter. No matter how much I explained, it would only make me ridiculous.
“I just forgot to put on lipstick, sorry.”
He looked at me inquiringly and then his cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the phone and his whole breath became much gentler.
“Jamie, why haven’t you come back yet? I’m so scared alone. Just now, a few people wanted to force me to drink, I…”
Jamie’s breath suddenly became cold and he nervously comforted her, then suddenly started the car.
“Wait for me, I’ll be there soon.”
The car’s speed reached 180 miles per hour. Before I could fasten my seat belt, my head hit the car in front of me. I groaned in pain. Just when I wanted him to slow down, he frowned and looked at me.
“Did you hear Lane was in danger and you deliberately bumped into her to get my attention? Lane is very scared now. I need to rush over as soon as possible. Can you please stop playing tricks?”
