Thank you for reading. How do you think Kaleb will react? The next chapter is tomorrow.
“So, by buying him all the things he asked for, you are… caring for him?” Amber did not know why, but instead of a warm appreciation from Kaleb, she felt the surrounding air become cold. She gulped, and answered, “Ah.” She frowned, adding, “It’s never easy to please a child, and I did the best in my ability to do so.” She chuckled and put a hand on her chest, saying, “I really love kids.” “Has he even had dinner already?” Kaleb asked. “Ah, no, but he ate these ridiculously expensive sandwiches with caviar -” “So no dinner, yet you let him eat ice cream and two bars of chocolate?” Kaleb sought. While Amber was thinking, Liam answered eagerly, “Yes, and I drank cola too, daddy! She said, she wants me to be her friend, and she wants me to give her time with you. That’s why Auntie Amber bought me a lot of treats!” “She is so nice,” Liam said with a mischievous grin. “I want to spend more and more time with Auntie Amber.” “Clearly, Amber, you do not care for my child, but whatever
“Kaleb? What is this?” Scarlett asked, showing her phone. “Why were you at BNC media? And why do you have a photo with Nicole leaving one of the studios?” The photos went viral over the internet, all while Scarlett was in the middle of work. She went straight to the man’s office, wanting to confront him about it. Scarlett has had it bad with Luca, and she never wanted to be blinded by lies again. She just needed to hear it from Kaleb. Earlier, it did not help that Amber came to see her, despite working two floors up. Amber asserted that Kaleb was getting tired of Scarlett already. She even dared to laugh at her as she left Scarlett's desk. “It says, there is a potential love interest between the model and Vice President of the Wright Diamond Corporation? Care to explain why you were there?” Taking a deep breath, she added. “Kitten, I can explain,” Kaleb said. “I happen to meet her when I went there. You don’t see us holding hands, right? I was clearly a few steps ahead of her. S
~ ”Saturday mornin', jumped out of bedAnd put on my best suit” ~ Scarlett’s mouth fell open, seeing it was Kaleb on the screen, but it was definitely not part of the movie! He was getting up in his usual pajamas and a plain t-shirt. In the next shots, he was fixing himself in the mirror, freshly bathed in an expensive suit. He was singing the lyrics like it was his own MTV and that was when the realization hit Scarlett; it was Kaleb’s singing voice! ~ ”Got in my car and raced like a jetAll the way to youKnocked on your door with heart in my handTo ask you a question'Cause I know that you're an old fashioned manYeah (yeah)” ~ Just like how it was said in the lyrics, Kaleb hopped into his Knight XV, driving with his shades on, all while singing the lyrics. As he did, he was running his fingers through his hair, while occasionally checking himself in the mirror. Scarlett was amused, nervous, and thrilled all together. She saw how charismatic Kaleb was behind the screen. It wa
"Scarlett Barnes, will you marry me?” Scarlett was still recovering from everything. She already knew she had a surprising proposal coming up, but she was still caught in amazement. It was with the way the proposal was presented, how grand, how humorous, how Kaleb’s family was all in on it, and how Liam played a significant role that she absolutely loved it. From behind Kaleb, she finally noticed that every one of his family was there to support him for that very day. His parents, his siblings, and even his nieces and nephews were there too! On another side, she saw her parents, Cindy and Philip Barnes. Aurora was present as well, and together with her mother, they were both teary-eyed at Kaleb’s outstanding proposal. Kaleb’s close friends were also there, Dylan Li and his girlfriend, in particular, were clapping their hands wildly. Boris and a few of the security team took a few moments to cheer for them, all while studying the surroundings. On another view, Scarlett notice
Getting out of the shower, Scarlett’s face turned a shade darker. Kaleb was already sitting on the bed, naked, his legs spread apart, and his cucumber was already angry. The arousal gel of his choice was already in his hand. She blinked a few times, suggesting, “clearly, you do not need the arousal gel.” “What? Are you satisfied with this?” He smirked, directing to his manhood and he suggested, “It could get a lot bigger.” “Come here, kitten,” he called while stroking himself. “I missed you so much, doing the shoot, making the most memorable proposal for you… I can only blame you for getting me this hard.” Scarlett’s eyes rolled. She chuckled at how he easily put the blame on her. “What are you wearing under that robe?” He asked. Gracefully, she removed her silk robe and said, “Something you like?” She was wearing a chiffon-like material black nightdress, and it opened up from the strings of her bra, going down to her hips. Covering her core was a g-string babydoll. Obser
“Mommy!” Liam was waving his hands eagerly while at the Longhills and Hogans Associates Law firm. He screamed, “Daddy said, today, we will have the same last name!” “Baby! It’s so nice to see you here!” Scarlett called, her arms open, ready to hug the boy. Liam jumped into Scarlett’s arms and she spun him around. Scarlett claimed, “I missed you so much! Sorry, I was studying last night when you arrive and when I came to see you this morning, you were still sleeping like a rock. I did not want to wake you.”“It’s okay, mommy. I was tired. Graham, Gale, and I went to the theme park with uncle Kyle and aunt Gaby,” Liam revealed. "We had a lot of fun." “That’s great!” Scarlett said. She looked past Liam and smiled at her husband-to-be. Kaleb was holding a bouquet, his hand reaching for hers. He asked, “Are you ready to be called, Misses Wright?” Scarlett’s face easily became red. She chuckled while accepting the flowers and pecking his lips, all while holding Liam with her other han
“Wow, so I have a space in your study now?” Scarlett asked, seeing a new desk from inside Kaleb’s penthouse office. She smiled, thinking how she could get used to being Misses Wright. After her board exams, she could already see how both of them would end up having late-night work hours in the room; Kaleb, with his usual work and client cases for her. “Yes, that will be easier and more conducive to your studies,” Kaleb replied, walking in and pulling Scarlett by the hand. Pointing to the sofa, he added, “I've changed the sofa to a convertible bed, too -” “In case I want to rest,” Scarlett filled in for him. “No, kitten. In case we want to fuck - Aw!” A strong smack went against his arm. “I can’t believe you! I thought you promised to give me the time I need. That’s how you made me agree to move in,” Scarlett grumbled as she squinted at the man. A chuckle left his lips. He reminded, "But, we are married now, kitten, and I thought we have already established that sex is good fo
“Courtney Barnes, the court is going to sentence you as follows. With regard to count number one, attempted murder in the first degree as it relates to Philip Barnes, you are sentenced to twenty years' imprisonment. With regards to count number two, attempted murder in the first degree as it relates to Cindy Barnes, you are sentenced to twenty years of imprisonment.” As the judge read Courtney’s verdict, she cried, knowing her youth will be wasted in the correctional facility in Braeton City. She tried to gain sympathy from her parents, but it was of no use. Cindy and Philip no longer glanced her way during her verdict hearing. Scarlett, who was there with her parents, just looked straight at the judge, not wanting to give Courtney and Analisa any recognition, either. Since both Courtney and Analisa negotiated for admission, they were served lower sentences, the verdict reading was brief as well. After Courtney, Analisa received her verdict. She was granted a lower sentence comp
