Her Return, His Regret by Natie

Chapter 24- Diane

Lora had just pulled an all-nighter when her phone rang early in the morning. When she saw who was calling, her eyes lit up as she picked up the call, "Uncle"

"Good morning. Lora, I came back last night," the man said on the phone.

"That's great, Uncle! Are you here for good or...?" Lora asked.

The man chuckled on the phone. He answered, "Let's talk in person. How about I treat my dear niece to lunch today?"

Lora sighed. She asked, "Uncle, do you still not want to go home? We can have lunch at home. Dad misses you a lot."

There was a pause on the other side of the phone before a response came. "I miss my brother too but I'll be nagged the moment I step foot there... you know I gave up the family jewelry business and your father wasn't happy about it. So, for now, let's just say I'm scared of his wrath... save your dear uncle, ok?"

Lora laughed in amusement. She nodded even though he couldn't see her through the phone before saying, "Ok, I'll meet you in th ernoon for lunch, Uncle."

When the call was cut, Lora continued her work. In the afternoon, she placed her documents in a file and put them in a drawer under her desk. Thereafter, she grabbed her bag and left her office.

It didn't take long for her to arrive at the restaurant. She walked in and looked around. When she saw a young handsome man with dark brown hair and hazel eyes, she smiled to herself.

The man was innocently sipping on a cup of coffee but the ladies in the restaurant couldn't stop admiring his charm.

Lora approached the man and exclaimed, "Hi, Uncle Alden!"

Aiden Davis raised his head when he heard Lora's voice. He smiled, showing his perfect dimples.

"Lora!" Aiden got to his feet and hugged his niece. "I missed you so much kiddo."

Aiden Davis was Jack Davis' younger brother who was born when Jack was already married. Aiden was the same age as Lora even though their relationship was uncle and niece, so they got along well. "I missed you more and the twins couldn't stop asking about you!" Lora exclaimed.
