Your Uncle’s My Husband Now Back Off, Ex Novel

Chapter 276 Damon's gaze instantly darkened, but he remained silent. Instead, he withdrew his arm from Rebecca's grasp and pulled out the chair closest to her. "Have a seat." Afterward, he avoided looking at Rebecca and sat in the chair beside her. Rebecca's smile faltered momentarily, but she quickly regained her composure and sat next to him as if nothing had happened. Most people probably didn't notice, but Nathaniel could sense Damon's indifference toward Rebecca.

Their behavior suggested that they had not reconciled, yet if they hadn't, Damon likely wouldn't have brought her along like this. Pushing aside the strange feeling in his heart, Nathaniel smiled and said, "Alright, it's Rebecca's welcome-back party tonight. I'm glad everyone could make time to come." The room buzzed with conversation, with most attention focused on Rebecca. For a moment, she felt as if she were back when she was with Damon-being the center of attention. She was well aware that if Damon hadn't come with her tonight, these people wouldn't be so enthusiastic.

That didn't matter, though. Her ultimate goal in returning to the country was to marry Damon and become Mrs. Sumner. Amidst all the praise, a sarcastic voice suddenly cut through the chatter. "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Sumner was recently seen with Nyla Jayston. How is it that, in less than two weeks, he's back with Ms. Austen? Could it be that Ms. Austen is the other woman?" The room fell silent instantly, and Rebecca's smile froze. All eyes turned to Erin, many silently admiring her boldness.

After all, hardly anyone in Saintornia dared to cross Damon, let alone accuse his partner of being a homewrecker to his face. Rebecca looked at Erin, feigning confusion. "What are you talking about? I don't understand." Erin sneered. "Are you really that clueless, or are you just pretending?" Sensing the awkward tension in the room, the girl next to Erin gently nudged her. "Erin, stop it." If Erin offended Damon, she would likely face repercussions as well. Originally, Nathaniel hadn't invited Erin to the gathering.

When she heard about the event while shopping with Erin and mentioned it to her, Erin insisted on coming along. After checking with Nathaniel, Erin was included. Nathaniel's expression turned icy. "Erin, if you don't have anything nice to say, keep your mouth shut. This gathering is to welcome Rebecca back, not for you to stir up trouble." Erin smiled and turned to Nathaniel. "There's no need to be angry, Mr. Preston. I'm simply stating the truth.

If the truth is so hard to hear, maybe you shouldn't be engaging in actions that are shameful in the first place." Chapter 276 4258008 Rebecca turned pale, her eyes welling up with tears as she looked at Erin. "Ms. Hulle, we just met tonight. Why are you being so hostile toward me?" A man nearby raised his eyebrows and said in a teasing tone, "Rebecca, since you've just returned, you might not know. "Erin went on a blind date with Damon before, but he wasn't interested. She kept pursuing him, but he rejected her each time.

She's probably just bitter, which is why she's targeting you." Erin's eyes flashed with anger, and she gritted her teeth. "Connor, be quiet!"
