I Fell For The Boy His Daddy Was A Bonus

A year passed.

“Marry me. I would rather spend one lifetime with you – than face all the ages of this world without you,” said a green-eyed beauty before her.

“Marry you?” While completely entertained, Scarlett was fairly taken aback. She absolutely did not know how to react to such a sweet and genuine proposal, no matter how young her new suitor may be.

Raising both her brows, she sought, “Where -where did you learn that?”

“It’s called, G – O – O – G – L – E. Lines from Lord Of The Rings by J.R.R Tolkien,” the young man answered with a wink.

Scarlett snorted and laughed at her handsome and utterly adorable admirer.

After Luca broke her heart, she claimed to get revenge one day. Sadly for her, Luca crushed her dreams of becoming a lawyer, thanks to his connections. She never got to take the bar examination. Luca blocked her from taking it, including getting hired from big to small enterprises.

Since she never left Braeton City, she could not get a stable work either. Whenever she settled with one job, Luca would learn about it, and she would get fired right away. She should have known better. The James family was the fifth-richest family in the city. She stood no chance against their wealth and influence.

In the end, Scarlett Barnes, the biological daughter of Cindy and Philip Barnes, an heiress to Barnes’ empire, a lawyer in the making, was now waiting tables at a restaurant bar in the center of Braeton City.

Scarlett at least hoped that by showing Luca her new and happy love life, it would be enough vengeance; her happiness after the storm.

She had long dreamed that one day, a knight in shining armor would sweep her off her feet – a handsome man, with a decent profession, would fall madly in love with her and give her the happiness that she had always desired. After a year, however, her unexpected marriage proposal came from… a six-year-old boy.

‘Great! Is this my chance at happiness?’ She thought. ‘Are you my knight and shining armor, little boy?’

She had earlier spotted Luca and her adopted sister, Courtney, entering the Herbal Twist Restaurant. Trying to avoid encountering them, she hid behind the old and unused bar counter, furthest to the back of the establishment where no customers were allowed to enter.

Scarlett ended up with the company of a young boy whom, over the last two minutes, she had come to know as Liam.
