Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex’s "Uncle" - Chapter 103

Chapter 103: His “Size” Chapter 103: His “Size” Logan’s scorching lips stole all her thoughts, leaving Selina momentarily dazed.  The kiss was pure, lips pressed against lips, without any deeper intention.  Yet, even so, Selina could feel her cheeks gradually heating up, and the atmosphere turned undeniably intimate.  Logan practically held her lips in his, murmuring in a low, gentle voice,  “Mrs.

Reid, don’t mind what Andrew and Bella said earlier.

She doesn’t have a designated room here, nor is she someone special.”  Selina’s lips were still damp, her breathing shallow.

“I-I didn’t mind.”  “You may not mind, but I do.

I don’t want anything to cause you misunderstandings.”  Selina’s heart trembled.

It almost felt like he was genuinely worried about her feelings.  Since childhood, her so-called family had never cared for her.

In Country B, most of what she had experienced was deception and betrayal.  How could someone like Logan exist?

Someone who would go out of his way to comfort her just because he was afraid she’d silently endure being wronged…  Selina felt lost, uncertain about how to respond to such emotions.

In the end, she simply nuzzled against him like a small animal.  Logan’s lips curled slightly.

“Feeling better now?

Or… do you need more coaxing?”  Before Selina could reply, he added, “I have never been with any woman before-not in any way.”  “If you still don’t believe me… I’ll figure out a way to prove it.”  Selina couldn’t help but bite her lower lip.

They were only in a contractual marriage-did he really have to take it this seriously?  His warm breath brushed against her neck, sending tingles through her skin.

She squirmed slightly, trying to shake off the sensation.

“I never doubted-“  “Don’t move.”  Before she could finish saying “you,” his husky voice cut her off.

“Mrs.

Reid, do you really think my self-control is that good?”  Selina froze.  She was completely nestled in his embrace now, her lips having unknowingly brushed against his Adam’s apple.  Boom.  Selina felt like her entire face was on fire.  This position… was way too intimate!  Sweat formed on her forehead as she panicked, unsure what to do.  Just then, her phone rang.  Like finding a lifeline, she scrambled out of Logan’s arms.

“I need to take this call!

Hello?”  A young male voice came through the line.

“Luna, why does your voice sound so hoarse?

You sound guilty as hell.”  Selina’s breath hitched.  Terrified that Logan might hear the name “Luna,” she hurriedly dashed upstairs.  Logan narrowed his eyes.  The caller just called her… Luna.  So she really was Luna-the little liar who had stolen his project plan five years ago.  His “little liar” had just slipped away because of a single phone call.

Logan clenched his jaw in displeasure.  “Sir, the caller is Kevin Turner,” Jack informed him.  Logan’s gaze darkened.

“I’ll go check it out.

You don’t need to follow me.”  Jack hesitated.

“What about the Clark Family situation?”  “Proceed as planned.”  …  Upstairs.  Back in her room, Selina shoved the earlier tension aside.

“What’s up?”  Kevin, a renowned wedding dress designer, raised an eyebrow.  “I called to tell you-there’s news from the Carter Family.

Old Mr.

Carter is using company shares to pressure Ryan and Natalia to break off their engagement, but Ryan refuses.”  Selina let out a dramatic “Wow.”  “How touching.

A love story for the ages.”  The Clark Family had offended Logan, yet Ryan was still desperate to marry Natalia…  Did Ryan know something?

Was that why he had to go through with the wedding?  Kevin’s tone turned serious.

“I also discovered something interesting.”  Selina’s curiosity piqued.

“Go on.”  “You know the heir of the Carter Family, right?

He returned to the country not long ago.

Guess what he’s back for?” Selina was puzzled.

Logan hadn’t left the country recently, so why did Kevin use the term “return to the country”?  Kevin continued, “As soon as he got back, he didn’t try to get on the old man’s good side, nor did he take a position at the company.”  “He doesn’t want the Carter Family’s business, won’t inherit the old man’s network in the art and calligraphy world, and is only interested in a small luxury boutique.

And that boutique just so happens to have some connection to your mother.”  A luxury boutique?

Giving up the family fortune?  Selina froze.

Wait a minute-why did it sound like Kevin wasn’t talking about Logan at all?  A chilling thought suddenly struck her.

Cutting Kevin off, she asked in an odd tone, “Kevin, the Carter Family heir… does his last name happen to be Carter?”  Kevin paused for a long moment.

“Duh.

If the Carter Family heir doesn’t have the last name Carter, then what else would it be?”  Selina felt as if she had fallen into an ice-cold abyss.  A question she had never really considered suddenly surged to the forefront of her mind-  Could it be that Logan… wasn’t actually part of the Carter Family?!  Kevin’s intel was always reliable.

If that was the case…  “Oh, by the way.” Kevin’s voice suddenly broke through her thoughts.

“I heard you got married.

Come by tomorrow to try on your wedding dress.”  Selina: “…”  It wouldn’t have been so bad if he hadn’t mentioned it, but now she felt even worse.

She had thought she was marrying into the Carter Family, but now… it seemed like she had made a huge mistake!  And yet, Kevin had no idea.

He was still casually musing, “Too bad I don’t know your husband’s measurements, or I could make him a suit as well… You probably know his measurements, right?”  Selina: “Huh?

I…”  Kevin clicked his tongue.

“Justin told me your husband is… well, ahem.

Just a heads-up, don’t spoil a man too much in that regard, got it?

Oh, right-what’s his size?”  Selina: “…”  Wait.  What was Kevin talking about?  What measurements?

What did he mean by “her husband is…”?

And what exactly shouldn’t she spoil him in?  Why did it sound like Kevin was talking about something… inappropriate?!  Selina’s face instantly turned red.

This conversation couldn’t continue.  “I don’t know his size!” she blurted, then immediately hung up the phone.  But just as she turned around-  She locked eyes with Logan.  Her entire body stiffened.  …H-How long had Logan been standing there?!  “Mrs.

Reid is very curious about my size?” Logan glanced at her phone, his tone casual.

“Would you like me to tell you?”  He deliberately emphasized the word size.  Selina’s brain short-circuited!  A flood of images flashed through her mind, bringing back a faint soreness in her body.  …How exactly did he plan on telling her his size?  Which size was he talking about?  And how was he going to demonstrate them?!  Logan’s eyes darkened slightly.

“What are you thinking about, hmm?”  “N-Nothing!” Selina shivered.  He was always like this-such a tease!

She hurriedly spoke faster, trying to explain, “I wasn’t talking about that size.

Kevin, the designer, is making me a wedding dress, so he was just asking about…”  Wait.  What the hell was she rambling about?!  Damn Kevin!

Who casually discussed a man’s size like that?!  Logan remained unfazed.

“I was only referring to clothing size.

What else did you think I meant?”  Selina felt completely dizzy.  So she was the one with the dirty mind…  But Logan had just kissed her not too long ago-was it really her fault for overthinking?!  Suddenly, another kiss landed on her lips.

Logan’s tone was calm as he murmured,  “If you really want to experience that size… I wouldn’t mind-“  Selina instantly slapped a hand over his lips.  “No!

I don’t!

Logan, I… I have something to ask you.”  Logan’s chest vibrated slightly as he let out a low chuckle.

Looking at her flushed face, he decided to stop teasing her-for now.  “What is it?”  Selina swallowed hard, recalling Kevin’s words.

Carefully, she asked, “Mr.

Reid… what exactly is your relationship with the Carter Family?”
