Wedding My Ex’s Uncle

Chapter 43 I’ll Always Be With You

Alden’s blood ran cold- what the hell is she doing here?

Kaia stumbled out of the taxi, clutching her throbbing shoulder. The pain was intense, radiating through her entire arm as if the bone had shattered.

Her eyes fell on a couple huddled together a few yards away, and her heart froze in her chest.

They met again.

Alden saw her clutching her shoulder, and an instinctive urge to go to her flickered within him.

No matter what, Kaia wasn’t a stranger. In two days, she was supposed to be his wife.

Luna caught sight of Kaia, her eyes darkening with rage. Then, in an instant, her expression changed.

“Alden,” she whimpered, clutching his arm. “I… I feel faint. The blood… it’s too much.” She swayed against him.

Alden instantly turned, catching her. “Easy there, Luna! Are you okay?”

Luna smiled a bit, “I’m fine… Just a little scared. Alden… Was it

Kaia in that car?”

Alden pressed his lips. “Yeah. It was her. Forget about her for now. You’re about to pass out. She’s probably fine.”

Kaia watched as numbness spread through her body. Alden cradled Luna in his arms, his face soft with concern-for her. Not once did he look back at Kaia.

A bitter laugh escaped her throat. So this was the man she’d almost married.

Two ambulances arrived with wailing sirens. Paramedics rushed out, quickly assessing the injured.

“Over here!” Alden called out urgently. “She needs immediate attention!”

Of the four paramedics, two went to Alden’s side. And the other two came to the taxi.

The paramedics quickly bandaged the taxi driver’s head and helped him onto a stretcher.
