Marry My Ex’s Uncle After Rebirth by Agatha Barney

Chapter 1013

Since their arrival in the capital, Yuvan had repeatedly asked Molly to make contact with Violet. Though they hadn’t been in touch for years, they were blood relatives. The more they interacted, the more their familial bond would naturally grow.

Carissa couldn’t compare to that.

Little did Yuvan know, Molly was incompetent and fond of throwing temper tantrums. After a few failed attempts at connecting with Violet, she was unwilling to continue and claimed her cousin was judgmental. She also said that as she was now a princess consort, she wouldn’t stand for such nonsense. Besides if the two were to rekindle their

relationship, Violet should be the one to make the first move and come to her.

This attitude baffled and angered Yuvan. To get to the bottom of things, he sent someone to investigate whether there had been any hidden bad blood between the two cousins.

He learned that there was nothing. When they were younger, they had gotten along well enough. It wasn’t until Violet joined the Inferno Guild to study martial arts that they lost

contact.

In Yuvan’s view, this was a relationship that could easily be mended.

No matter Violet’s reason for visiting, this was the perfect opportunity to repair their bond. Thus, he quickly sent someone to fetch Molly. Before long, she arrived at the study with her maid, Plum, in tow.

She looked pleased and curtsied. “You called for me, Your Highness?”

Yuvan watched her perform the same casual, unrefined curtsy she always did. After being married into the royal family for so long, she still hadn’t shown any interest in learning proper etiquette. Her days were spent squabbling with the concubines, and she was always vying for his attention.

Yuvan suppressed his irritation and said, “Your cousin, Violet, has come to see you. I’ve already sent someone to invite her to the main hall. I want you to join me shortly. While she’s here, you’ll host her for dinner. Take this chance to catch up and improve your relationship. Don’t be disrespectful–she’s a guest, understand?”

Molly was excited when she first heard Yuvan had summoned her to the study, since she was never allowed to enter. Only Fiona had that privilege.

However, her excitement quickly faded when she discovered that it was because of Violet’s arrival. Molly found her cousin insufferable and haughty. Violet didn’t respect her even though she was now a princess consort.

“Did you hear me?” Yuvan pressed.

Molly finally composed herself and replied, “Yes, I understand.”

Yuvan stood up and reached out to take her hand, guiding her toward the door. “Let’s go. I’ll greet her briefly and leave right away. I wont interrupt your conversation with her.”

Molly hesitated for a moment, her gaze instinctively falling on their joined hands. of warmth surged in her chest, a mix of sweetness and bitter longing.

“What’s wrong?” Yuvan asked softly, noticing her pause.

Molly’s voice trembled slightly as she responded, “Your Highness, this is the first time you’ve held my hand.”

When they got married, she had imagined becoming a loving couple and dreamed of a deep .bond between them. Many people told her that since Yuvan had married her soon after his first wife passed, he was probably cold–hearted. However, she refused to believe it. Before he proposed, they had met once. Even though he was older, the way he looked at her was full of tenderness and affection.

During their early days of marriage, he had indeed treated her well. Over time, things had changed. After returning to the capital, his affection had cooled. She had wondered why- maybe it was because she didn’t know how to act with proper decorum and had embarrassed him on more than one occasion. Or maybe it was because that conniving Fiona had sowed discord between them.

Molly had grown discouraged, but there was always a lingering sense of regret within.

Yet now, here he was, holding her hand. It was something he hadn’t done even when they first married.

Seeing the slight flush on her cheeks, Yuvan smiled, his tone still gentle as he said, “Do you like it? If you do, I’ll hold your hand from now on.”

Molly’s heart fluttered. Though many couples didn’t hold hands in public, she really liked

1. it.

When they reached the main hall, Violet was already standing inside, her cold expression now carrying a hint of fury.

Upon hearing their footsteps, she turned around. When she saw Molly, her sharp eyes ignited with fury. Without regard for Yuvan’s presence, she strode toward her cousin and slapped her across the face.

“Molly Spencer, what have you done?!” Violet roared.

The slap stunned Molly; even Yuvan froze for a moment.

“Violet, have you lost your mind?” Molly snapped after recovering from the shock. She touched her reddened cheek and screamed, “I’m a princess consort and your older cousin! How dare you hit me?!”
