Spoiled By My Ex’s Uncle Chapter 42
It was a few days to the wedding, yet Xavier and Charlotte hadn’t seen each other since after their last fight. Just as the first rumor about Charlotte had been released, other worse ones had followed suit, spiraling out of control as if it was a contest to see which publishing company could release the most scandalous news about her. It was all Xavier saw whenever he opened his phone and it was all everyone who was close to him spoke about. It was tiring, it was draining, but there was nothing he could do about it. There was though, but for the first time in so long, Xavier was confused. After their last fight, he had acted true to his words and conducted a deeper research on Charlotte. He had found nothing seriously incriminating then, but soon, each of his detectives began bringing stories that were worse than the last all of a sudden. They all swore by their source, but it was easy to tell what was happening. Someone or rather, some people were still actively trying to ruin C

Charlotte lay down in her bed, staring up at the ceiling like he had been doing for the past four days. The only sound in the room was the sound of the TV showing a program she never bothered to glance up at. She left the TV on to leave some semblance of reality in the otherwise quiet house, to keep her from going insane in that cold and gloomy house. It had been four days since Xavier tugged on the strings of her heart and broke them to pieces, four days since she had been threatened by Matt and four days since she had spoken a word out loud. Matt’s threats no longer bothered her. In fact, she never answered his calls, just let them go to voicemail and never listened to them either. How could she be bothered about one person soiling her name when her reputation had already been soiled, ruined and damaged by the entire internet in less time than she thought possible. Charlotte neither felt sad nor heartbroken. There was just a numbness that settled below her chest. No matter what

Charlotte cleared her throat and looked away, trying to get her body and mind to cooperate. It wasn’t fair. Xavier didn’t give her ample time to prepare to meet him. He just showed up at her doorstep when he was ready and now he was demanding they talk. As she stood up and sat back on the bed, she frowned, promising herself to not embarrass herself any further in front of him. “That we do,” she said, crossing her arms over her chest. Instead of talking however, his eyes left her face and trailed down slowly to her chest, where her arms were crossed together. She swallowed. If she had known he would come today, she would have made herself look more presentable. Charlotte hadn’t showered that day and to say she looked a mess would be an understatement. She really hope the bath she had at night would keep her from looking too rough or smelling weird. “You said we had to talk,” she said, not liking the way he was checking her out. “Well talk.” Without a word, he got up and began to

Xavier watched her comfortably from the couch where he was sitting, with a smug expression on his face. Charlotte’s face was frozen in shock at what he had just said and he couldn’t be more satisfied. If only she could read his mind, she would have known she was the one who had the upper hand here. Each day he expected the maid to tell him one or two things about how Charlotte was doing, but if there was a problem, the maid never showed it. She didn’t even say anything when he first handed her the key to Charlotte’s room and gave her the instructions to lock it back up after giving Charlotte her meals for the day. Xavier hadn’t been able to bring himself to ask her the question either. His workers already suspected their marriage was not normal so he didn’t need to confirm it to her, but on the other hand, he hadn’t only been thinking about how he would react when he finally met Charlotte again, but he had secretly been hoping to find her just like this. It was proof that she was

Charlotte swallowed, completely stunned by his words. For several seconds, she stood frozen, unable to pull her eyes away from his gray ones which she was lost in. Her chest swelled repeatedly as she drew in deep breaths, trying to come to terms with his words. She struggled to prevent her shock from showing. Xavier had confessed to her how much he enjoyed toying with her just a few minutes ago. She half-expected him to laugh in her face and tell her he was only joking about needing her, but when the seconds passed and his expression still didn’t change, it became evident he wasn’t joking. Xavier was staring down at her with a longing that verified his last statement. He was searching for something in her eyes, a confirmation perhaps that she shared his feelings.“What do you mean?” She asked, breathing fast. “You understand perfectly well what I mean, Charlotte,” he said, placing a hand under her jaw and forcing her to look up at him. “You need me?” She asked. “For what?” His gaz

The house looked even bigger than Charlotte remembered. Her eyes widened when Xavier led her to the dining room which was just as big as a conference hall. She sat down on the first chair and Xavier sat next to her thankfully. The dress she was wearing suddenly felt too tight on her, and too much for something as casual as eating in the house. Xavier hadn’t even noticed the dress. She felt ridiculous. When they were both sitting, the maid announced what the meal was. “Roasted chicken with wild mushrooms, spinach, and a rich demi-glace, served with saffron-infused rice, chili sauce and boiled chicken broth.” She curtsied and left the room. Charlotte had neither heard of nor tasted the meal before. There were too many side dishes and too much cutlery as well. She didn’t know which one was to be used for which food. She had never been under this much pressure just to have a meal before. “Does she always announce the food before you eat it?” Charlotte asked, deciding to reduce the st

Charlotte’s blush deepened. She had put on that dress on purpose and he had noticed. However, he didn’t say anything else about it, so they ate the rest of the meal in silence. When they were done eating, Charlotte’s stomach started to turn, so she excused herself before anything got out of hand. “Why are you in such a hurry?” Xavier asked. “You’ve been cooped up in that house for days. You can stay here to watch a movie or something… I mean, if you want.” He avoided her gaze when he spoke. Charlotte was almost tempted to take the offer. After all, she was really tired of staying in the house all alone all day. However, just before she could agree, her stomach rumbled again. “I have to go,” she muttered, standing up from her seat and practically bolting to the door. “It can’t wait.” He looked disappointed, but she couldn’t tell him what the problem really was.She cursed her sensitive stomach as she ran downstairs to her part of the house. This never happened to her all the times

“Eighty million?” Charlotte gasped. The sales woman looked at her like she had lost her mind. “Is there a problem? Is it too cheap?” She asked. “This is the most expensive dress in the whole state currently. I assure you…” “No, no. It’s fine,” Charlotte said. “You discussed the price with Xavier?” “Oh of course. His budget was one hundred million but this is the most expensive we have in stock. Let me try this on for you.” There was no reason to be dramatic about it. Xavier wanted to go all out for his wedding. It was a business venture for him basically. The more beautiful and expensive she appeared, the better it would be for him - as he once explained. If he wanted to spend millions on the dress then so be it. When Charlotte looked at her reflection in the mirror after putting it on, she was speechless. The dress lived up to its worth. It was so beautiful, she felt a surge of warmth fill her chest so strongly, she felt like crying. Never did she think that a single piece of
