I Fell For The Boy His Daddy Was A Bonus

Chapter 27:

Scarlett’s Fight Scarlett already expected Kaleb to draw attention to her, make Courtney jealous, make her mother contemplate their past decisions about abandoning her and make Luca finally realize that she was over him.

What she absolutely did not predict was to be engrossed with an open–mouth kiss right in front of them.

Still, she enjoyed it. Who would not? Kaleb was a very good kisser. He was always eager and passionate with his kisses. He made her feel as though she was the only girl he had ever kissed in his entire life!

“Mmm.” She moaned into Kaleb‘s mouth and ultimately, she pulled away from the heated kiss, her lips easily became numbed. “Scarlett? How was the will reading?” Kaleb purposely asked. He grabbed her hand and turned to face Courtney, Cindy, and Luca. “I hope my girlfriend had a fair share of the properties of the Barnes.”

Kaleb turned to Cindy and emphasized, “After all, she is your biological daughter.” 

Silence stretched between both parties. Cindy paled at what she had just witnessed whereas, Courtney’s eyes became filled with rage. Jealousy crept into her heart that her jaws evidently clenched.

Luca, on the other hand, stiffened. His eyes rounded in shock. “Mister Wright, is this real? You are... you are with Scarlett?” Cindy stumbled on her probing, her finger pointing at Scarlett, all while her forehead knitted. “Yes, Scarlett is my girlfriend,” Kaleb confirmed. “And if not for her dreams of becoming a lawyer, I would have compelled her to marry me outright.” All eyes were widening at that point. Even Scarlett was startled at his suggestion. “But – but why?” Cindy protested. “She is my ungrateful child who only brought chaos to my house? Who tried to take away what belonged to Courtney!” 

“How exactly?” Kaleb countered. “Wasn‘t it Courtney who coveted Scarlett‘s fiance?”

Either way, she ends up being a billionaire after our marriage.” Shifting his gaze to Cindy, Kaleb warned, “Have a decent talk with your husband, or else, you and your daughter will lose all that stupid inheritance, just fighting my team of experienced lawyers in a legal battle that I can afford to make it last
