Chapter 20

Chapter 20: Officially His Girlfriend 

“Coffee?” Scarlett said, raising the mug in her hand. She entered Kaleb‘s study that afternoon while the man was busy going over some documents.

“Thank you, my kitten. Come here,” he said while winking at her. He then urged her to take the seat in front of him 

Putting the warm beverage on the desk, Scarlett informed, “Liam is sleeping. He is still tired from yesterday. I thought you didn‘t work on Sundays.” 

“Hmmm.” Kaleb reached for the coffee and replied, “Most times, it can’t be helped, but I at least bring work home. Though, this is not work. I’m reviewing what Archer has planned for taking down your former manager, Miss Cook, at the herbal twist restaurant.”

“You are what? You don’t have to -”

“Of course, I do. I’m not letting this go, Scarlett. God knows what would have happened to you if you did not have the courage to kick that man‘s balls,” Kaleb responded. He took a sip of his coffee and said,” And no, you can‘t make me change my mind. After your manager, I‘m going after Mister Sanders. How dare he even thought of touching you?” 

The thought of another man touching Scarlett made Kaleb enraged, he would stop at nothing to put down a small–time businessman such as Mister Sanders. 

Scarlett tried to sway him against it, but after another round of debating with him, she realized that Kaleb had already made his decision. She sighed in surrender and decided to bring up another matter that she meant to handle on her own. 

“About this Tuesday, Kaleb, you really do not have to come. I can... go there by myself,” she said. “I don‘t want you to get involved with the drama of my family. It‘s just so shameful for you to witness –” 

“I‘m going to be there for you, Scarlett. I won‘t let them bully you as they had done in the past. You will have to accept that with me into your life, I‘m going to interfere with these matters,” Kaleb insisted. His elbows rested on the surface of the table while his fists carried his chin. 

“And I‘m not doing this because I think you are weak. You are definitely not. After what you have been through, I think you are the strongest woman I know,” Kaleb added. “I want to protect you, and I am doing this because you are important to me and to Liam. Do you understand me, kitten?”
