Chapter 22: Whipped 

“This way, Scarlett,” Kyle said, pointing to the biggest room on the floor.

Scarlett was feeling bashful with the fact that Kaleb‘s brother, the CEO of The Wright Diamond Corporation, was walking her to the Vice President‘s office Everyone’s eyes were staring at her, clearly speculating her identity

Eventually, they arrived at the designated room, and then Kyle pointed to the lock, saying, “You can stay in his office while waiting for Kaleb. I already asked my assistant to bring you coffee and treats.”

“Um. Thank you, Mister.”

“Kyle, you can call me Kyle,” Kaleb‘s brother proposed. He repeated to point to the door and suggested,” Open it with your thumb. It has your biometrics saved.”

Noticing Scarlett‘s perplexed expression, Kyle explained, “Yes, it’s a smart digital door lock. While I could open the door for you, it’s best to understand how I am familiar with you. You see, we all know you; by face, and under the name of Beauty.” 

Scarlett was taken aback at the discovery. She clarified. “By all, you mean -”

“Me, my wife, my younger sister, and her husband,” Kyle answered in a nonchalant tone. “Kaleb has yet to tell the good news to my parents, who are currently outside the country.” 

Looking at the door lock, Scarlet doubted it, but seeing the seriousness on Kyle’s face, she reluctantly did as she was told. Putting her right thumb on the handle scanner, the door opened instantly. 

Her jaws could not help but drop, her hand covered her mouth. “How did he?” 

“You did not know?” Finally, Scarlett saw a smile on Kyle‘s face. He hinted, “Well, well. Looks like my brother has learned from me.” 

“Don‘t be surprised,” he added. “You are staying with him and Liam, right?” 

Scarlett‘s face burned instantaneously at his words, but Kyle made her feel at ease. He stated, “I have nothing against couples who lives together. My wife and I lived together for years before we got married. Besides, he is already in his thirties, ripe for marriage. Don‘t you think so? He probably took your fingerprint while you were asleep.”
