Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' Chapter 120: Fully Cooperating with Her

Bella’s tone carried a hint of arrogance—I know things your wife doesn’t. That ans we’re the closest ones.

"Logan, looking into what happened four years ago isn’t easy. But I happen to have so connections, I can—"

Logan cast a cold glance at her. "Bella, you’re overstepping."

Bella’s expression stiffened for a mont, but she quickly put on her usual gentle facade.

"Apologies, it’s just a habit of mine to look out for my friends. Since you mind, I won’t bring it up again. Oh, Logan, I passed by a store earlier and thought this would suit you. What do you think?"

She handed over a delicate box.

Selina narrowed her eyes. Tsk, this woman is doing it on purpose, huh?

She had clearly seen Selina but still insisted on gifting sothing, making a show of closeness with Logan.

Well, that was fine. If there was one thing Selina was never afraid of, it was dealing with a green tea bitch.

A trace of impatience flickered in Logan’s eyes, and he was about to refuse when a calm, teasing female voice ca from behind him—

"Miss Hayes, what gift did you get for my husband? Let take a look too."

Selina naturally linked her arm through Logan’s, leisurely opening the box. "Oh my, a watch?"

She lifted the watch and examined it for a mont. "Miss Hayes, you really went all out. This one costs at least three million. Logan, even I can’t bear to buy you sothing this expensive."

Bella hadn’t expected Selina to step forward so directly. Her expression darkened. "Miss Clark, this was a gift for Logan. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to open it like that?"

Selina blinked. "But we don’t really differentiate between ’yours and mine.’ What’s the harm in helping him unwrap a gift? Logan, don’t you think so?"

Logan raised an eyebrow, indulging her. "Mm."

Selina was satisfied. "See, Miss Hayes? Logan doesn’t mind, so why are you, the one giving the gift, so concerned?"

Bella’s forced smile almost cracked. "As long as Logan is happy."

Selina chuckled aningfully. "Hmm, this watch looks kind of familiar. It seems to match the one on your wrist... Oh, is this a couple’s watch?"

"What a coincidence! Logan and I also have a pair. But aren’t couple’s watches ant for, well... couples? Why would you be giving him one?"

The nearby servants subtly glanced over.

Yeah... Giving a married man a couple’s watch? That was bound to raise so questions.

Bella was so furious she nearly trembled. How could there be such a shaless woman? Selina had already stolen the title of Mrs. Reid, and now she was flaunting it?! Bitch!

Bella’s eyes reddened, as if she had suffered so great injustice yet had no choice but to endure it.

"Selina, you misunderstood. I just thought both versions of the watch looked nice, so I bought them. I didn’t an anything by it..."

"Logan, I’m upset now. What do you think we should do?"

Selina cut her off with a pitifully sweet voice. "Miss Hayes grew up with you, knows secrets I don’t, and now she even wants to wear matching watches with you. Sigh, then what does that make ?"

Bella choked on her breath.

Logan: "..."

He averted his gaze, his voice indifferent. "Jack, get rid of it."

Jack took the watch. "Yes, sir."

Selina bead. "Logan, you’re the best. From now on, don’t let any other woman get too close to you, okay?"

Logan responded without hesitation, "Okay."

Selina’s heart skipped a beat.

She had only said that to ss with Bella... but she hadn’t expected Logan to agree so easily.

And sohow... it made her heart race.

Bella never expected Logan to handle her gift this way!

"Miss Clark, what exactly do you want? Even if you hate , there’s no need to take it out on the watch, I—"

"I didn’t an anything by it." Selina cut in smoothly, tilting her wrist just enough to reveal the matching watch on her arm.

"Logan only wears our couple’s watch. Miss Hayes, you should put away those thoughts. Even if I weren’t here, it still wouldn’t be your turn."

Bella’s face turned deathly pale.

On the surface, Selina was just talking about the watch, but in reality, she was mocking her—Even if we get divorced, you still won’t be the next Mrs. Reid!

Selina had no right to be this arrogant!

Did she really think she could be Mrs. Reid forever?

Logan only married her because he still hadn’t found that person from four years ago.

Once he did, how could Selina possibly have a place by his side?

Bella t the skeptical gazes of those around her and took a deep breath.

"Selina, you’ve really misunderstood. Logan and I are like brothers. How could I ever have improper thoughts about him?"

"If you don’t like the watch, then fine, throw it away. But... sigh, I just hope you don’t hold any prejudice against . Logan and I grew up together. If I truly loved him, we would have been together a long ti ago, don’t you think?"

Selina clicked her tongue. Wow. Now that’s so premium green tea energy.

But when it ca to making people uncomfortable? That was her specialty.

Selina’s eyes twinkled as she feigned innocence. "Miss Hayes, I didn’t misunderstand. Since you two are ’brothers,’ you should be wearing matching brother watches. That’s why we got rid of the couple’s watch."

"I’m actually doing you a favor. People don’t know you and Logan are ’brothers.’ What if they start saying you’re trying to seduce a married man? That would be so awkward. Really, I’m so considerate."

Bella nearly choked on her own breath.

Selina clung to Logan’s arm with a satisfied smile. "Logan and I are heading upstairs now. Miss Hayes, you wouldn’t want to interrupt our marital life, would you?"

Logan smirked slightly. "Jack, take Bella ho."

Bella clenched her fists, swallowing down the rage bubbling in her chest.

This bitch...

One day, she was going to make Selina disappear.

But not yet. She couldn’t be reckless. If Logan noticed anything...

Bella’s lips curled into a sinister smirk. It was fine. She still had Andrew.

...

Inside their room, Selina suddenly realized she was still holding onto Logan’s arm.

The two of them looked like a couple hopelessly in love.

Her face flushed. She quickly let go, pretending like nothing had happened.

"Ahem, Mr. Reid, Grandma just sent over a new piano. I think I’ll go practice for a bit."

Logan glanced down at his now-empty arms and raised an eyebrow. "Mrs. Reid, you were calling Logan so affectionately in front of Bella, and now... you’re just discarding ?"

Selina stiffened. She had used Logan to flaunt their relationship and disgust Bella, but when he said it like that... it sounded so wrong.

She quickly corrected him. "What do you an discarding? I was helping Miss Hayes see reality so she’d back off!"

Logan humd as if deep in thought. "So when Mrs. Reid said, ’No other woman is allowed to approach you,’ that was fake too?"

Selina’s heart skipped a beat.

Why was he asking this?

Of course, she didn’t want other won getting close to him.

But... that wasn’t right. Their marriage had started as her using him.

If she started acting possessive now, wouldn’t that be unfair to him?

Selina blinked, swallowing the sudden bitter feeling in her chest, forcing herself to act indifferent.

"Of course it was fake. If you fall for soone else, how could I possibly—"

Before she could finish, a pair of cool lips pressed down on hers.

Logan didn’t hesitate for a second, taking full control, claiming her without giving her a chance to react.
