Forbidden Love with My Fiancés Uncle

~~Elena~~

"If she doesn't perform any operation now I don't think she will live up to two months", the doctor said, my heart ached so much as I watched the only person left in this world that truly cares about me laying down unconscious. Grandma has always taken care of me after my parents passed away in a tragic accident and my uncle and his family manipulated the will leaving me with nothing and no home, only grandma took me in and now I can't watch anything happen to her, the only option now is her son, my uncle.

"Uncle,Grandma is sick. She's been in the hospital for weeks now, and she needs an urgent operation."I said, with a trembling voice,

I know how evil and selfish he is. For the past 6 months he hasn't even contacted his mother to talk more about caring about me.

"I can help you, Elena " he said, his tone calm but laced with something dark,

"but under one condition.".he continues adjusting his glasses as he rows his office chair

"Isabella is supposed to marry the younger son of the Rodriguez family. But rumors say he's a reckless playboy, and I can't risk my daughter's life in such a marriage. And that's where you come in." I knew he was not always up to something good.

"Uncle, I'm only eighteen. How am I supposed to get married? I'm still too young. Your daughter is twenty-three. She's at the right age for marriage."

He leaned back, staring into my eyes and sighed. "Well you'd better find other alternatives," he muttered coldly, he knew I would do anything for grandma.

My hands trembled as I fought back tears. "She is your mother, Uncle, How can you turn your back on her?"I said with my voice breaking.

"Not mother–stepmother," he said coldly. "Your father was the result of my father's unfaithfulness."

I froze as the words cut through me like a blade. But Dad had told me otherwise. He once explained that my uncle's mother had been my grandfather's ex-girlfriend, long before he married Grandma. It was only later that he discovered he had a son with her after their breakup.

Grandma and Dad had always treated my uncle like family, like blood. They gave him love, respect, and a home. Yet here he was, ready to cast them aside without a second thought.

"If you have nothing more to say, you can leave," he said coldly, flipping through an unknown file on the table as though my pain were nothing more than background noise.

I thought about Grandma, her frail hands, her fading strength,and I have no other options. For her sake, I have to agree to his request.

"Only under one condition: Grandma's surgery must proceed immediately." I raised my chin and added firmly,

He glanced at me for a moment, then quickly made a call, assuring me, "Everything is being taken care of."

"We will be going to the Rodriguez estate to seal the deal".

"What! now?", he gave me a cold stare and step out of the door, and I followed behind.
