A heat spread through my neck, and I quickly understood what Uncle Carter was up to, making my entire body tense up. 

His hold was firmer than Luke’s, and I felt a sharp pinch on my neck. 

I instinctively grasped the smooth material of his clothes, whispering, “Carter.. 

It was only then that he let go, his fingers lightly grazing the mark he had made. 

“You’re so fragile. If I were to touch you again… 

As he spoke, my face flushed, and I exclaimed, “Carter 

“Why are you turning red? Has no one ever treated you this way before?” Carter playfully pinched my cheek. 

He was probably talking about Ashley since Zoey didn’t have much to do with him. 

As for Luke and me, the most we did during our school days was hug, with very little kissing. He was always the gentleman, saying he’d wait until marriage before doing anything more. 

He never left any marks on me. 

I shook my head. “No.” 

I wasn’t sure if it was just my imagination, but it seemed like there was a trace of happiness in Uncle Carter’s eyes. 

However, he quickly masked it. 

“It’s late. Let’s get some sleep.” 

I automatically tried to get up, but Carter gently pushed me back down. 

“Sleep here. We’re married now. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything without your consent.” 

I instinctively declined, “I … I’m not used to sleeping next to someone.” 

I always feel like my relationship with Uncle Carter is moving too fast, sharing a bed feels like such an intimate act, and I always thought it was something meant for lovers. 

He released his hold on my waist, “Alright, I won’t pressure you.” 

“Thank you.

I hurried back to my small room, the soothing scent of aromatherapy calming me, and I quickly drifted into a deep sleep. 

That night, I had a dream that was both romantic and exhilarating. 

What was even more unsettling was that the person’s face in the dream turned into Carter’s, and he shifted

from his usual gentle nature to one that was rough and commanding. 

I had to keep calling out to him, “Uncle Carter, please don’t… 

My hand was gripped tightly, and a familiar voice whispered in my ear, “Darling, say it again”

The next morning, when I woke up, the details of my dream were fuzzy, but I could clearly recall how intense and passionate it had been. 

I was about to get up to change clothes when I noticed a dried water stain on the sheets, causing me to flush with embarrassment. 

What a vivid dream that was! 

Just catching a glimpse of Uncle Carte’s good looks made me turn red without meaning to. 

Could it be that I’ve gone too long without being with aman? 

Carter remained as composed as always, saying, “Are you awake? Get ready, we’re having lunch at the Hudsons‘ today.” 

“Alright. 

All day long. I felt extremely uncomfortable around Carter and couldn’t even bring myself to meet his. gaze, worried he might notice the shameful thoughts in my mind. 

The Hudsons had invited both the Sanders and the Boltons for lunch today. 

Fiona appeared to have a change of opinion about Anna, saying, “I heard you entered the International Art Competition this time. I never imagined you were an S 

It turns out the shift in her attitude was due to my painting. Anna knew how to make herself stand out. 

Kate spoke with pride, adding, “Yes, since she was young. Anna’s teachers have always told her she has talent. She used to be too modest. If her painting style hadn’t been acknowledged at the last exhibition, she wouldn’t have revealed she’s an S.” 

Fiona took Anna’s hand, saying, “It seems I was wrong to criticize you before. Being too humble isn’t always good. You need to be more confident when the situation calls for it. This time, make sure you represent our family well.” 

The daughter–in–law who had been reluctant to acknowledge it before, quickly became part of the Hudsons as soon as she was recognized as a talented painter. 

Anna softly replied, “Yes, I will give it my all.” 

When my eyes landed on Anna’s face, Kate immediately stepped in front of her, shielding her like a protective mother. 

“What are you staring at? Are you jealous of my daughter?” she asked. 

I couldn’t help but laugh at how absurd it sounded, “Am I jealous of her?” 

“Do you have any idea how many fans my daughter has? How many companies have been reaching out for

quickly overshadow that. On the other hand, some people with deep schemes think they are digging holes for others, but in the end, they don’t even know who they’re burying” 

Hearing her steer, I smiled. Tm curious too. Who do you think will be the one buried in this art competition?”
