Married First, Loved Later : A Flash Marriage with My Ex's 'Uncle' novel Chapter 321

Chapter 321: A Man with No Taste

Selina: "?" Angelica wants to talk business with Logan? She has the nerve?

Before she could say anything, Logan paused his writing.

"Let them in."

Selina: "!" He’s letting them come up?!

She nearly exploded like a pufferfish, already calculating how much it would cost to buy out the entire Morris Family.

...

Kyle was feeling conflicted.

He knew the truth now, but hadn’t said a word. He was still playing the role of Angelica’s brother. At this point, he didn’t even know how to face Selina.

Angelica looked apologetic.

"Sorry, Kyle. Because of me, the Morris Family’s business has suffered. I didn’t know how else to make up for it—for you or for Dad. That’s why I want to work with Mr. Reid."

Kyle’s expression grew more complicated.

"Angelica..."

"Don’t worry," she continued. "I’m definitely going to win the design competition this time. Once my winning design goes into production, it’ll help recover the losses."

Then she sighed.

"But Selina will probably try to get in my way again. She’s always competing with me even though she’s no match. Don’t be mad at her, okay?"

Kyle stared blankly, thinking: Right... Selina really doesn’t measure up to Angelica.

Maybe Angelica becoming the Morris Family’s heiress was fate.

After all, Selina didn’t seem to have any ambition, couldn’t even win a design competition. If she returned to the family, she’d only embarrass them.

Yes. Yes... He had to stand firm on Angelica’s side. His choice was right. This had nothing to do with betraying his real sister—it was just that Selina didn’t deserve the Morris Family. That was it.

Reassured by his own twisted reasoning, Kyle collected himself and stepped into the elevator.

...

Logan’s office had its own lounge area. Angelica walked in gracefully, gave Selina a glance, and sat on the couch like she owned it.

"Oh? Selina, you’re here too?" she asked sweetly, pretending to be surprised.

Kyle took a seat next to her, filling up the lounge seating so there was nowhere left for Selina to sit.

Selina rolled her eyes so hard they nearly got stuck.

Angelica smiled with that typical polished grace, clearly trying to show off.

"Would you mind waiting a bit, Selina? I’ve got a business proposal to discuss with Logan. Afterward, he’ll have time for you."

The implication?

Angelica was a woman of business. Selina was just a clingy wife with nothing better to do.

Selina gave her a look like she’d just swallowed a fly.

Seriously, what was wrong with Angelica? Showing up first thing in the morning just to annoy people?

Angelica turned to Logan.

"Logan, I’ve taken over the Morris Family’s fashion line. A partnership between us would be a win-win."

Logan gave a faint smirk and casually skimmed the financial report.

"A partnership?"

Angelica smiled warmly.

"Yes. Logan, I know there’s some tension between me and Selina, but this is business. It’s about two companies’ futures. I hope you’ll consider it carefully."

Logan looked calm as ever. "Heh."

Just one soft laugh—but Angelica couldn’t tell what he meant by it. Was that a yes? A no?

Still, she had to make this partnership happen. It was her best shot at staying close to Logan.

If Morris Group and Reid Group became partners, she’d be the sole liaison. That meant countless excuses to see Logan.
