Thank you for reading. The next chapter is later this evening. Kisses. Who do you think sent the adoption info to Lisa? Any guesses? By the way, ladies, I just want to make a shout-out to this co-author who was with me during my stressful times (you know the theft incident). If you are into reading Young Adult/Teen Romance, check out the novel SIN, also here on GN.
Two days passed since receiving the email from Lisa. Archer walked in on Kaleb’s study, handing him his investigation report. He told, “According to this, there were two other people who have been looking for Lisa in the past few months. Luca James and Nicole Barrel.” A frown formed on Scarlett’s face. She said, “But who would have access to the court photos? Only those inside the courthouse would? Could Nicole be able to furnish a copy of the picture?” Kaleb, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes. He suggested, “Or someone who has connections at the courthouse.” Scarlett gulped at what Kaleb suggested. She said the name, “Luca?” Even if the couple had discovered the leads in the middle of the night, they left for Luca’s apartment. They easily found his address and sought Luca's presence. When Luca opened the door to his apartment, Kaleb walked in with Archer and two other security personnel with him. Luca could tell Kaleb's blood was already boiling. Luca greeted, “Nice to see y
Two weeks ago. Rarely did Graham and Kenneth visit Liam at the penthouse. Most of the time, it was Liam who went to his uncle Kyle’s mansion, but recently, since his father bought him a new computer set for his games, Liam invited his cousins over instead. From inside Liam’s room, Liam and Graham were taking a break from playing video games. Kenneth, on the other hand, was minding his own business, with a headset over his head, watching learning videos about computers. While the younger boys were eating snacks and drinking refreshments, they chatted about Scarlett. “Mommy has been staying with me a lot in my room. Sometimes, she studies in my room,” Liam revealed. “I love it when my mommy Scarlett takes care of me.” Graham smiled, and he expressed his agreement, “I like aunt Scarlett too. I think she is really nice. I wish she would be your mommy forever.” “The judge said at the adoption hearing that I belong to mommy Scarlett forever now,” Liam revealed. “I believe him.” “R
Life went on as usual for Kaleb, Scarlett, and Liam. They did not hear from Lisa as of yet, despite Kaleb returning her email, asking her what she wanted. Thus, after two weeks, the couple decided on their vacation. Taking advantage of a long holiday, Kaleb brought his family to the Caribbean. On that trip, he invited Scarlett’s parents, plus Aurora. Boris also came along. It was Scarlett’s first time, and it was also Liam’s first time in the Virgin Islands. After deplaning the private jet, Scarlett grabbed Kaleb’s hand, saying “Wow, it’s so small.” Kaleb chuckled and answered, “The island is small, so the airport has to be a smaller kitten, but fear not. The airport does not speak for the beaches around here… You are going to love it.” A tour guide was already waiting for them at the arrivals. Two luxury SUVs were parked outside, ready to take them to their initial stop. The first part of their itinerary involved having lunch at a local beachside steakhouse. After which, they we
It was the longest night Kaleb had ever had. He did not sleep a wink. A big part of him wanted to get it over and done with and just talk to Lisa, but then again, that night, he was not ready to face Lisa. Many scenarios played in his head as he forced himself to lie in bed. Eventually, morning came, and that was when he finally met Liam's mother. Kaleb and Scarlett agreed not to tell Liam as yet. The couple first needed to know Lisa's real purpose for coming to Braeton after all these years. Kaleb set up a conference room for their meeting. When he and Scarlett arrived at the secured area, Lisa was already there, her arms crossed against her chest, clearly waiting impatiently in front of a round table. When Lisa’s eyes landed on Kaleb, her face seemingly brightened, but at the immediate sight of Scarlett, she frowned. Her gaze quickly found the couple’s hands, both clasped together. “Lisa,” Kaleb called her attention. Lisa sucked in a breath. She forced a smile and said, “Kale
“You don’t have a claim on anything. You wronged my husband and his family by deceiving them. Kaleb almost married you! Then you left, not caring for Liam. When you did exactly just that and did not show up in the years that followed, you lost your right as a mother.” This time it was Scarlett who spoke, not able to control her annoyance. The woman, who is calling Liam her flesh and blood, did not seem to act like it when referring to her own son. It irked Scarlett to the core. She stood from her seat and pointed a finger at Lisa, saying, “The court has already granted me and Kaleb Liam’s adoption and it is irreversible. Under the law, we are his parents now. You do not have the right to get Liam back and make threats about taking him!” “If you ever try to take Liam, we will come after you for attempted kidnapping and if you so successfully get money out of us, we can sue you for civil extortion!” “I don’t know what you are spouting about, woman, but I am the boy’s mother. I alread
“Promise me you won’t contact her again,” Scarlett requested while giving Liam back his gadgets. “Do you trust me, Liam?” Liam nodded and replied, “Yes, mommy. I trust you, mommy, and I promise that I won't contact her again.” “Thank you, baby.” Scarlett embraced Liam for some time. When she pulled away, she explained, “Liam, your daddy and I would never want to keep things from you. We don’t also want you to think that we are hiding you from your real mother, but we have every reason to believe her intentions are not good.” “We don’t want anything bad to happen to you, and we certainly do not want to lose you. Your daddy and I, we love you very much,” Scarlett continued. Two days had passed since Lisa’s visit. The couple had already revealed to Liam how they met with Lisa and how she asked for money. They mentioned Lisa threatened to take him away, which did not sit well with Liam. His immediate reaction was anger at the thought of parting with Kaleb and Scarlett. Since last ni
“Kaleb! Liam!” Scarlett could be seen in distress. She was running like the wind in the streets of Braeton, chasing after a man. “Let me go! Let me go!” While in his formal wear, Liam screamed. His legs were kicking the masked man, who was trying to get him in a tinted van. Kaleb interfered, coming in between the unknown man and Liam. He was dressed in a black suit and he wore shaded glasses, too. A fight commenced. Kaleb was thrusting his arms and legs while trying to keep his son safe. His moves were slick, never missing to counter an attack. It would appear as though the attacks of his opponents played in his head in slow motion. Meanwhile, Scarlett found herself circling around the struggle. Kaleb threw Liam in her direction and the boy flew, his arms stretching wide. Scarlett caught Liam, and while holding his waist, she took a full turn. Liam’s feet wound up kicking the men who were trying to take him away. Soon, Scarlett aided Kaleb in the fight. With both of them toge
“Stop,” Scarlett said, while trying to push Kaleb off her. She giggled and reminded, “Our guests are waiting, Kaleb? Seriously?" The two found themselves in their designated changing room within the convention center. Liam was in his room, together with Boris, being changed into his next attire. Scarlett was supposed to be attended to by the wedding stylists, but Kaleb insisted that he do it for his wife. The stylists could not refuse. He was the one paying for everything, after all. All they could do was wait. Following her refusal, Kaleb grabbed Scarlett’s hand and brought it to his hard crotch. He revealed, “I’m so horny, I need to get this out of the way. I only need a quickie. Five minutes, kitten, five minutes.” “How come you are horny at a time like this? When did you even get a boner?” Scarlett, all while still laughing at his bulge. “When you said I do!” Kaleb admitted before a hiss left his lips. “Please, kitten. Please.” When Scarlett just kept giggling at his predi

***Between Kristoff and Kayden*** “Grandma! Grandpa!” Kristoff and Kayden ran toward their grandparents. The Wright family gathered for the twin's third year birthday. “Oh, my dear. Help me!” Samantha exclaimed, turning to her husband with pleading eyes. With age, it became rather difficult for Ethan and Samantha to remember all their grandkids. It was especially hard with Kristoff and Kayden since they looked alike. The boys were a perfect example of identical twins. Their resemblance was so uncanny that it was difficult to tell them apart. “Who wants chocolates?” Ethan raised two bars of the treat. Kayden took one, and Kristoff took the other. Smiling, Ethan pinched Kayden's cheek. He said, “Kayden, my boy!” Then he kissed Kristoff’s cheek and greeted, “Kristoff!” “Yes, grandpa!” Each of the twins acknowledged. Samantha’s mouth fell open. Then, when the twins left, she asked Ethan, “How did you do that?” Ethan smirked triumphantly. He moved closer to his wife and revealed,
Scarlett was taken aback, hearing the news on the phone. It made her gulp. Tears stung her eyes. Her lips trembled as she lowered her mobile back to her purse. The couple was back at their mansion. It had been a month since Kristoff and Kayden were born, and finally; they were able to take the twins home. There were no complications during their month of stay at the hospital. However, the identical twins had to learn how to feed and gain more weight before being discharged from the hospital. Scarlett was inside the nursery, settling the twin boys, Kristoff and Kayden, in their cribs, when she received a call. “What happened? Why are you in tears all of a sudden?” Kaleb asked from the other side of the room. “Did Liam tell you anything about today?” She pursed her lips while wiping the wetness on her face. Then, she inhaled and said, “Any idea why he was late in seeing us at the hospital?” Kaleb’s eyes panned from side to side. Eventually, he shook his head and replied, “He did
Over two years passed. “Lily! Baby, be careful running around,” Scarlett called while setting food on the patio table. Her two-year-old daughter was running on the front lawn without hold. Scarlett glared at Liam, saying, “Liam, please. Keep up with your sister!” It was a Saturday, and weekends were meant for family time. Hence, they had their usual lunch on the patio before resuming with that afternoon’s play activity. “She runs too fast, mom!” Liam, at fourteen years old, complained while dashing after his two-year-old sister. Levin and Lewis, both five years old, also chased after Lily. They were laughing and teasing Lily, acting like zombies to scare her off. “Stop it guys. You are scaring your sister,” Scarlett tried to reason with the boys, but when the twins did not listen. Scarlett turned around and called her husband, “Kaleb! Levin and Lewis aren’t listening!” The twins immediately stopped trailing after Lily, and at the sight of their father, they sealed their lip
“What is it, father?” Scarlett asked, seeing her parents late in the afternoon at their home, her hand landing on her tummy. Scarlett was already five months pregnant and carrying a baby girl. It was precisely what Kaleb wanted. Philip and Cindy looked at each other. Philip replied, “Analisa is dead, and Courtney is in the hospital fighting for her life. We received the call two hours ago, and… we decided that we thought… we should let you know in person.” “What happened?” Scarlett asked, sitting on the couch. "How did Analisa end up dead? And How did Courtney end up in the hospital?" “The prison guard had long reported Analisa’s animosity towards Courtney. So that was why they have never put them in the same cell,” Cindy reported. “I think that was because Courtney testified against Analisa with Luca’s lawsuit.” Scarlett nodded. She recalled how Analisa was given another ten years in prison without parole. Luca was determined to put Analisa behind bars, considering how he thought
“Good morning, sunshine.” Feeling kisses on her back, Scarlett felt ticklish. Her eyes opened. She smiled with the recollection of how they made love last night. She turned to her husband and accepted more kisses on the lips. Her grin grew wider. She said, “Last night was amazing.” Scarlett recalled how, after doing it in the living room windows, they resumed making love in the main bedroom of the penthouse suite. After which, they did it again in the shower. Finally, they had a late dinner and made love again in the dining area. The couple dozed off after the fourth round, but Kaleb woke her up at three in the morning, already making love to her from behind. So they spooned into their fifth round of lovemaking. Scarlett and Kaleb delighted in sweet and gentle pecks, smiling and caressing each other’s skins. Kaleb was the first to speak. “Congratulations on your promotion, kitten… but now that you are a senior associate, I hope you won’t take back-to-back lawsuits so often.” “
Scarlett was ready to kick the man’s balls as soon as her feet would land on the floor, but she easily caught the scent of her husband’s perfume, and it wasn’t just that. The man’s arms, his height, his build, and his natural scent were just utterly familiar to her. “Are you ready for a night of pleasure, Misses Wright?” When he spoke, everything became clear to her. How could she not recognize her own husband? It was Kaleb! The man hurriedly carried her to the living room and settled her on the sofa. He climbed on top of her and his lips smashed down on hers. “Mmmmm,” A moan escaped Scarlett’s lips, making Kaleb lean back. The smacking sound of their lips echoed across the vast living room space. The lights were still off, and they could only make out their familiar figures as they began tearing each other’s clothes. Kaleb let go of Scarlett’s lips, saying, “Are you going to cheat on your husband, Misses Wright? I’m going to fuck you carelessly.” Scarlett chuckled. She answe
A year passed. “Kitten, we are outside the courthouse,” Kaleb said on the phone. Scarlett turned to the courtroom one last time, and seeing the satisfied look on her colleagues' faces; she knew they tried their very best. Even their clients, Secure Coverage International, were happy with the closing arguments. They went against Braeton city’s mayor, who had purposely burned down his vacation home to claim a fire insurance premium. In court, Scarlett and her team presented evidence that the mayor had long been planning for a complete renovation and that taking the entire house down had always been part of his plan. The judge may not have decided yet, but Scarlett believed they would win. She smiled at the happy faces of her team members before saying goodbye. “Guys, I need to go now. Mister Rick, and Miss Sanchez, thank you again for trusting us with this case. I’ll see you again next week during the sentencing.” Scarlett made her way outside the courthouse in her white, yet forma
Liam embraced Scarlett. He caressed Scarlett’s back and said, “Mom, I’m sorry.” “I just want to understand, Liam. I thought you would be happy about me being there for you. It’s been a while since I waited for you after school,” Scarlett pointed out. While she was thoughtfully hurt about how Liam acted, she relished in his embrace and hugged him back. “I was expecting you to hug me, kiss my cheeks, and tell me you miss me being there for you after school hours, but instead, you pushed me away.” “I’m sorry that I have been so busy, but I always tell you why and I come to your room every night, even if we don’t get to talk sometimes. I wanted to let you know I came to check on you.” Letting go, Scarlett could see how Liam was feeling guilty. Using his fingers, he wiped the tears that stained her face. He took several deep breaths and answered, “It’s - it’s not that.” Liam scratched his head and admitted, “I knew you were busy, mom. Dad keeps telling me too. I wish you had more time
