My Quick-witted Baby (Arabella and Kenneth) novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14
Meanwhile, Randall suspected that he had heard imaginary voices, and he thought, "Does she mean she wants to keep Ken?
Does she take him as a gigolo?
Does she really know who Ken is?
I really can't believe what I've heard!"
Kenneth glanced at the check with his deep, narrow eyes and then looked indifferently at Leia's beautiful face. After that, he asked in a deep, emotionless, and indifferent voice, "What do you mean?"
Leia had already met Kenneth in the cake shop that day, but she still felt flipped when she saw him again now. She looked at his flawless handsome face with a red face and tried to show her superiority over a gigolo. "This check is for you. Take it and do not follow Arabella anymore. Be my lover, and I'll keep you."
Randall was so shocked that he didn't even know what to say.
Meanwhile, he thought, "What did I see? In my lifetime, I have actually seen someone take out a check and want to keep Ken. What happened to the world? Or am I dreaming now?"
Kenneth put his hands in his pants pockets and quickly revealed a sneer.
He didn't say anything about rejection or humiliation, but Leia's face turned red with this sneer.
She thought, "What's wrong with me? I'm the daughter of the Snyder family, and he's just a gigolo. However, even one of his movements or gazes spreads condescending arrogance, which makes me feel ashamed."
She couldn't help but ask, "What are you laughing at?"
Kenneth raised his sharp eyebrows. "Nothing. It's good to be confident, but you'd better go back and look yourself in the mirror."
After saying that, Kenneth moved his long legs and left.
All Leia's passion was quenched by his words, and she couldn't believe that she was rejected by a gigolo.
And she was even shocked that a gigolo was actually so arrogant.
After taking a step, Kenneth stopped because he saw a gorgeous figure in front of him. Arabella came.
Arabella seemed to have been here for a long time, and she was now looking at him with sparkling eyes.
Seeing that, Randall thought, "Well, what a special day today! Ken is caught on the spot by his wife."
Kenneth looked at Arabella for a few seconds and then quickly took out his hands in his pants pockets. "I didn't do anything. As you can see, she is the one who seduced me!"
The man who was still cold and unattachable at the last second suddenly became an ordinary man in love and complained to Arabella in an innocent tone. This scene almost shocked Randall to a daze, and Leia's already broken heart was immediately covered with a layer of frost.
"Arabella, it's you again!" Leia clenched her fists and gnashed her teeth in resentment.
Arabella walked over, and her delicate body even blocked Kenneth. "Leia, I always think you are the more-stupid version of Caitlin, but Caitlin should feel happy because you have learned a lot from her. That is, you also like to snatch other people's men!"
"You..."
Without waiting for Leia to speak, Arabella took the check directly from her hand. "Eight thousand dollars? Leia, why do you have so much money? It seems that you really went all out this time. You like my gigolo very much, don't you?"
This check was all Leia's savings, and she even borrowed a small part of the money from her friends. Now she was really obsessed with Kenneth, so she went all out.
Arabella sighed with pity, "Unfortunately, he has no interest in you. No matter how much money you give him, it's useless, for he doesn't like you."
After saying that, Arabella turned her head and looked at Kenneth's handsome face. "Tell her whose man you are!"
Kenneth looked at her eyes which revealed some arrogance and anger. Then he smiled lovingly and replied, "I'm Bella's man."
After hearing this, Arabella was silent for a while.
Her heart couldn't help but beat faster. She had originally had the matter under her control, but after Kenneth said so, she felt that he had taken control of the situation instead.
When Arabella heard his answer in a deep and pleasant voice, her heart almost stopped beating for a second.
Arabella quickly withdrew her eyes and looked at Leia with a warning. "Leia, I'll spare you today. However, if I bump into you seducing my man again, I won't let go of you easily!"
Arabella held Kenneth's hand. "Let's go."
After hearing this, Randall, who was standing aside, thought, "I have to say, she is really domineering!"
Leia was so angry that she was about to explode. She had seen Arabella's glib tongue long ago, but she didn't expect her to be so mean.
...
Kenneth was led away by Arabella. Her hand was small, soft, and smooth. Kenneth moved his fingers slightly and wanted to hold her small hand.
However, Arabella shook off his big hand and snorted, "Mr. Lucero, I was originally an onlooker, but you insisted on getting me involved. I think I have shown you a good play of competing with another woman over a man. Are you satisfied?"
Kenneth smiled. "How would I smell something sour?"
Arabella didn't get his implied meaning.
She smelled it for a while, but she didn't smell anything sour.
The next second, she realized that he was saying that she was jealous.
Arabella looked sideways and glared at him. "Mr. Lucero, I helped you just now. You should be grateful, okay?"
Kenneth stretched out his hands to press her delicate shoulders and pushed her directly against the wall. Then, he propped one hand beside her body to block her. "How would you dare to talk to me like this? Do you really think I am a gigolo? You've really become bolder."
Arabella was immediately trapped in his arms. And she thought, "Look at him. He always does what he wants in an arrogant manner. Therefore, how would I dare to take him as a gigolo?"
Then she replied in a lower voice, "I didn't."
"Are you sure? Mrs. Lucero, you said you helped me just now. What do you mean by that? Do you have any self-consciousness about being a wife? Shouldn't it be your duty as a wife to chase away women with bad intentions around your husband?"
Arabella lost her tongue for a moment.
She inexplicably felt that what he said seemed very reasonable. "But how do I know if you are interested in those women? Maybe Leia is the one who was supposed to marry you. I'm just a substitute."
Kenneth raised his sharp eyebrows and reached his handsome face close to her. "Are you sure that you are not jealous?"
"I'm not..."
"It's said that jealous girls need to be coaxed. Do you want me to coax you?
"Tell me."
Kenneth lowered his head and gently kissed her red lips through the veil.
Arabella's slender eyelashes slightly trembled, and she thought, "How could he..."
Kenneth swallowed some saliva and asked her in a low voice, "Are you still jealous?"
Arabella was shocked and quickly shook her head.
Seeing that, Kenneth chuckled in a low voice and said, "Okay, little green-eyed monster."
Arabella finally realized that she had been deceived because she found that she had confessed in a roundabout way that she was jealous. She had never lost in the verbal battle, but she could do nothing when facing Kenneth.
Arabella bit her red lip slightly. Then she lowered her body, freed herself from under his arm, and quickly ran away.
Kenneth put his hands in his pants pockets again and followed her with a smile.
