Well yes...I'm Owen Kingston and have been on the news a lot more recently these past few months of Sydney's divorce, so yes he recognises me. But the look on his face is not THAT kind of recognition, and it fades so fast into a mask of pure, exhausted indifference that I think I imagined it.

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 213

    The striking, facial structure. Sydney is an absolute, undeniable replica of the woman in the vintage photograph—Tobias’s mother. The almost psychotic protectiveness Tobias has shown toward Sydney from the very first moment he met her. The massive financial safety nets he threw under her, the fact

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 212

    Before I can even open my mouth to apologize for breaking into his house, Tobias speaks. His voice is incredibly quiet, completely devoid of its usual sharp authority, yet it carries a heavy, haunting weight that pins me right to the carpet. "For years..." he murmurs, his finger continuing its slow

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 211

    I stand frozen on the gravel path, the engine of Sydney’s departing car roaring in my ears. I watch the taillights of her vehicle bounce over the cemetery threshold, disappearing completely from sight, and with every inch of distance she puts between us, my heart shatters into a million jagged, irre

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 210

    My throat locks up. I’ve seen Owen angry, I’ve seen him arrogant, and I’ve seen him lethal in a courtroom. But I have never seen him cry like this. "I am so sorry for leaving you in that jail cell, Sydney," he whispers again, his voice cracking completely now as he stares down at my lips. "I know n

    The second Owen’s fingers touch the chrome handle of his sleek black sedan, I violently twist out of his reach. I yank myself away from his side, clutching the lapels of his oversized designer suit jacket against my chest like a shield. He freezes, his hand dropping from the door as he whips his he

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 208

    My stomach completely drops. The press. The paparazzi who were banned from the main service have already spotted the commotion from the outer gates. Long, heavy camera lenses are already poking through the iron bars, the rapid, machine-gun clicking of shutters filling the air as they capture every

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 15

    The morning sun filters through the floor-to-ceiling windows of Grandmother Newton’s sunroom, giving a beautiful shimmer to the floral patterns of the upholstery. I am kneeling on the plush rug at Grandmother’s feet, my fingers steady as I adjust the brim of her favorite silk hat. She is insistent

    "You saw it, Deckard! You stood there and saw that... that woman strike me!" Gia screams, her voice hitting a pitch that vibrates in my teeth. She’s gripping her pashmina so hard her knuckles are white. "She’s out of control! You have to find a way to reign her in, or better yet, just leave her. Thr

    Oh, the nerve! Lydia may have the nerve to say God awful things to me, but how dare SHE ruin this audition for me! This is my life...my chance to take things into my hands. To be financially independent and here she is, ruining it for me?? I'm still shaking partly from the adrenaline of the au

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 7

    A lace dress with a mid thigh high slit, plunging neckline and open back, is probably inappropriate for a funeral. But it's black, so I guess that should make up for it. I step out of my car, looking through my little net veil at the crowd gathered for Mr Newton's funeral. As a billionaire, he h
