Invisible to My First Love by Lypstical Novel

Chapter 100 Chapter 100 Maddox : 91 55 vouchers Uncle Sebastian's car was about to pull up in a few seconds as I could already hear the engine while I waited in the front yard . He was finally going to meet Harper and I wouldn't have wanted things any other way because for the longest time , he always wanted to meet a girl I actually liked . The thought of what their interaction would be like , made me chuckle as he was full of surprises at times . Then , I grinned when his car came into view .

He knew I could see it as he was looking right at me , but he just felt the need to rev the engine , making me shake my head . When he parked right beside me , he poked his head out the window with dramatic wide eyes as he whispered to me . " Uh - oh , what's this ? You're out here alone ? Don't tell me Harper already dumped you and left ? Did I miss it ? " I laughed a bit too loudly because first of all , that wasn't going to happen as there was nothing actually going on .

Secondly , I knew he just didn't want to take himself too seriously and that was the version of him I needed around Harper . It bothered me so much that she was nervous . Just as he opened his car door , I approached him , finally responding to his questions . " My girlfriend's inside . " " I see . It makes sense that she's still here . Otherwise , you'd be in tears right now , " he teased me as he locked the car . " Come on . Why would she even dump someone like me when I'm the guy every girl wants ? " Even though I bragged about that , I knew it wasn't entirely true .

I wasn't the guy every girl wanted . Because she was all about Grayson and that still fucking hurt . As soon as he slipped his car keys into his pocket , I braced myself for that firm and competitive handshake . Just as expected , his hand tightly wrapped around mine as he raised it and turned it into arm wrestling . Even in his long - sleeved shirt , I could see the muscles along his arm . He was still in excellent shape .

" Looks like someone has gotten stronger ." He glanced at my flexed bicep , daring me to push his arm all the way down the other side , But no matter how hard I tried , I couldn't , and I knew that would happen . " I've definitely gotten stronger and one day , you won't come out on top , " I said , my voice a bit strained as I tried my best . " In other words , it's not today , so I win . " He smirked confidently . 10:52 Mon , Oct 20 ... Chapter 100 After he pushed just a little harder , I couldn't keep going and he got his expected victory .

B 91 55 vouchers " Don't cry about it ." He patted me on the back as we slowly made our way to the front door . " In ten years , you might beat me . " I scoffed . " Like it'll actually take that long ." " Crap ." He pulled back his hand from my back . " This shirt definitely looks as good as new and I wouldn't want to mess it up . Is Harper okay with you wearing it around her ? It does remind her of what happened in London . " I chuckled before I could even respond . I was so glad that he and I thought alike at times . " She's cool with it , " I said as I pushed open the front doors .

" She assured me she'll be okay. " " Had she said she never wanted to see it again , would you have listened to her ? " He thoughtfully tilted his head . " Yeah ," I said without hesitation . " I'd never wear it in front of her again . " He sighed . " You know what ? Forget I even asked you that . I shouldn't even be surprised that you'd do that for her . It's nothing compared to you coming back to San Francisco just for her ." " Yup . " " I see you're all settled in . " He looked around the foyer at everything that was back in its place . " Yeah ...

by the way , you look good ." I stared at his black shoes with a nod of approval . They blended perfectly into the marble floor . I knew the price tag on those and they were fit for someone like my uncle . " I know I look good . " He bragged . " I have to look as good as I feel , which is awesome ." I studied his side profile in silence and he picked up on it quickly . " Uncle- " " I'm fine , really . " His tone got a little defensive as he smiled at me and led the way to the living room . " Just because I'm going through a divorce doesn't mean I need to let myself go .

Your aunt is out there living her best life . Why shouldn't I ? " I really wished they could work things out , but he didn't give me any hope that it would ever come to that . " So , I'm coming to the ball tomorrow . " He changed the subject , but I decided to go with it . " Do you have a date ? " " Nope . I can pick one out from the crowd . Don't forget who you're talking to . " He smirked , taking a seat and making himself comfortable . " I really look forward to it . " I rubbed my hands together as I took a seat on the opposite couch .

" I get to deal with Kate for what she did to Harper at the mall . " 10:52 Mon , Oct 20 Chapter 100 " What will you do ? " He curiously leaned forward with his eyes narrowed . " You'll see it when it happens . " I chuckled . 91 55 vouchers He raised his hands in defeat , leaning back in his seat . " Tiffany was right not to keep messing with your girlfriend . " " And Kate will never try that again . " I could already imagine tears rushing down her face . " It looks like it's such a big day tomorrow and what a way to start it .

" He gave me a warm smile and I immediately knew what he was talking about . I warmly smiled back . " Yeah , my dad texted right before you arrived just to remind me again ." " I guess he just really wants you to know that going to your mom's grave is constantly on his mind . That's such a big change , you know ? " I nodded in agreement . " Yeah , so much that I've decided to start painting again . " He instantly rose to his feet for a fist bump . " Finally ! " He gave a short laugh . As soon as I got up too and bumped his fist , he sat back down , eager to know the details .

" What made you change your mind ? " he asked . I chuckled softly while still standing . " Harper- " " Of course it's your girlfriend ." He playfully rolled his eyes . " Did she say something ? " " Nope , I just thought it would be fun to paint her . " " You know what ? Enough talking because now , I seriously can't wait to meet this young lady ! " " I don't think the feeling is mutual . " I rubbed the back of my neck . " How come ? " " She's nervous ." Pointing at me with raised eyebrows , he said , " She better be . " Once again , I wasn't even worried about anything .

He didn't mean that at all . I knew that in just a few seconds of Harper talking to him , she'd feel at ease . She was actually more nervous to meet my uncle and she was to meet my father . While Tim attended to him , I made my way upstairs to get her . As I pushed the bedroom door open , I thought I'd find her sitting down or something , but there she was , standing by the window with her arms crossed . She glanced back at me , then silently faced the window again .

My first thought was that she was just more nervous than ever because she knew my uncle had arrived and the time had come to meet him , even though we were pretending to be dating . 10:53 Mon , Oct 20 Chapter 100 : 91 55 vouchers Closing the door behind me and standing right near it , I said , " This is it and remember the few things we discussed , just in case my favorite color , food or artist comes up , not that there would be any scenario where he'd ask me that . But sometimes , shit like that can happen ." I had said so much but barely got a reaction out of her . " Is everything okay ?

" I asked , taking a few steps forward . With a heavy sigh , she said , " Grayson called a few minutes ago . " Just hearing his name made me stop in my tracks so I could keep some distance between us as my jaw clenched . " And ? " I asked , trying to hide the irritation in my tone . " I chose not to pick up . " She turned around to face me . " Moving forward , I'll do that a lot more . I failed before when I promised myself never again , but I want things to change . I don't want to feel this way .

It's just perfect that I should build on the warning you gave him not to show up to my place when it's so late . " Her response instantly changed my mood , making me get even closer until I towered over her . I was so glad with her decision that I teased her lower lip with my thumb . " That's a good girl ," I whispered , as I stared straight into her eyes . " I'm glad no one made you do it . " She didn't even seem to care about the second thing I said . Her breath got a little heavier as she exhaled right against my thumb. I knew exactly what that was doing to her .

" If you've already made your decision , why do you seem so bothered ? " I asked , but figured it out quickly before she could even respond . " It's a huge step . " She nodded in agreement , still not breaking eye contact . Those gorgeous eyes looked into mine like she'd do whatever I wanted . I had to fight hard to keep my urges under control . " Whatever it is that you think you have to do , that's all up to you , " I said . Even though I wanted her all to myself , I wasn't going to start ordering her around on how to deal with Grayson .

I only hoped she wouldn't end up right where he wanted her . " Enough about him . My uncle's eager to meet you . " As I teased her lower lip with my thumb one last time , her breath hitched at the same time she closed her eyes . I trailed my other hand downwards along her arm until it came in contact with the palm of her hand and I intertwined our fingers . " Let's go , " I said , dropping my thumb from her lip . When she opened her eyes , she looked at me like I'd stopped a bit too soon and she was just getting to enjoy it . The look on her face made me subtly bite my bottom lip .

10:53 Mon , Oct 20 Chapter 100 55 vouchers I led the way out and as she came along , I wondered if she'd even realized the exact moment I'd managed to hold her hand . She didn't see it coming and that was how I wanted her not to see me coming for her heart . Her decision to set some boundaries with Grayson despite her feelings made me believe that one day , there'd be no room for him in her heart .
