I Fell For The Boy His Daddy Was A Bonus

Chapter 13: Don’t Leave Me 

“Scarlett, I‘m sorry. You know, our apartment only has Greg as security and he is old. He was not able to stop those men from entering your apartment. We tried to threaten them by calling the police, but they weren’t scared at all. They said that you offended a capable man,” said her landlady, Misses Gray. 

“It‘s not safe for you to live here, Scarlett. Forget about the lease, but – but I don‘t know if you can manage to at least pay for the broken doors and cabinets. It was a good thing they left when they realized you were not home. I don‘t know what would have happened if they found you here.” 

Scarlett was staring blankly at the insides of her messy apartment. The doors were all broken, including the doors to the closet. Now, she regretted kicking Mister Sander‘s nuts! 

She turned to Archer, the same security personnel whom Kaleb insisted to accompany her home. He was

ith Kaleb. She could tell, Kaleb was making arrangements for her, but as to where? She was unsure. She could only hope it was somewhere safe… and not too expensive, especially since… She was out of a job.

After the call ended, Archer came up to them and said, “Misses Gray, my boss will be paying for the damages to the apartment.” He presented the old lady a check worth five thousand dollars and said, “I hope this is enough to cover the cost.” 

Scarlett’s eyes beamed as she silently screamed, ‘Five thousand dollars for the freaking doors!’

Then again, Scarlett thought, Misses Gray probably had a near heart attack, following last night‘s incident. She let it go, thanking her landlady for her kindness. 

Turning to Scarlett, Archer said, “Mister Wright said, while he finds an apartment for you to say, you are welcome to stay at his penthouse.” 

It took a few hours for Scarlett to pack her things. While she did not have a lot, she and Archer had to buy a few boxes and packaging tapes to keep her possessions secured. Another vehicle, belonging to the Wright Diamond Corporation, arrived to pick up all of Scarlett‘s things. 

After meeting up with her previous co–worker, Archer drove her straight to Liam‘s school, where she was meant to care for the boy like a mother would.
