Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 265

Chapter 265: An Unwelcome Guest

The woman completely ignored Selina, her breath warm and flirtatious. "Logan, darling, the night’s long and lonely... don’t you feel a little empty? How about we... connect a little?"

Selina’s eyes narrowed slowly.

Something was off. This woman didn’t seem like just a server delivering wine. Her presence, her confidence—it was giving "spoiled heiress" more than "waitstaff."

But the most important part? She was here, which meant she had some connection to Logan. And now she was draping herself all over him in plain sight...

"Logan, say something. I’m up for anything you want to play with, I—ah! Logan!"

Logan casually pushed her off without even looking at her. The woman stumbled, landing in an exaggerated pose, chest half exposed and lips bitten, giving Selina a perfect view of her intentions.

Selina was officially pissed.

Was this chick blind? Did she not see her sitting right here?

At least pretend to have some shame while trying to seduce someone’s husband.

"Stop playing around, Miss Riley Nelson," Logan said flatly.

"Logan, you’re being so mean... I’ve had a crush on you for years. Ugh, whatever, I knew this wouldn’t work." She laughed, unbothered, flicking her hair. "You really haven’t changed at all. Still as stiff as ever—classic emotionally unavailable man."

Selina raised a brow.

Logan frowned. "Get up. Fix your dress. Or I’ll have your brother come get you."

"Okay, okay. God, it’s impossible to get any sympathy out of you."

Riley threw on a coat and flopped casually into the seat next to Logan like she owned the place. She took a few bites of food, then—almost as an afterthought—glanced at Selina.

"And who’s this?"

Logan didn’t even look up. "My wife."

Selina propped her chin on her hand, eyes flicking between the two. Something felt... weird.

She was sitting right here, yet Riley had barely acknowledged her. From the moment she walked in, Selina had felt a strange, crawling discomfort—not because Riley was beautiful, but because something about her just didn’t sit right.

The vibe was fake.

Riley froze for half a second, then jumped to her feet, face full of regret.

"Oh my God, she’s your wife? I’m so sorry! I thought she was just one of your guests! Mrs. Reid, I didn’t mean anything by it—I wasn’t trying to hit on Logan, really! Right, Logan? Tell her."

"I’m really sorry," she added, laying it on thick. "I just got back from overseas, didn’t even know Logan got married! If I’d known, I’d never have been so rude. I’ve known Logan forever—we grew up together, I’m kind of like one of the boys, you know? Total tomboy energy. Please don’t let this cause a fight between you two!"

Selina raised a brow again. That itch of discomfort returned in full force.

She dropped her gaze and smiled. "It’s fine. Miss Nelson, I know it wasn’t intentional. I wouldn’t be upset over something so small. Logan and I have a strong relationship. A misunderstanding like this isn’t enough to rattle us."

As she spoke, she studied Riley’s face.

But Riley didn’t even flinch. Instead, she smiled like Selina’s words had touched her heart. "That’s such a relief. Honestly, I used to worry no woman would ever go for him. He’s so stiff and emotionally clueless... I mean, calling him a hopeless straight guy is honestly being kind."

Selina listened to her carefully, but something felt... off.

But when she tried to focus, her mind went blank. _{freёwebnoѵel.com}
