My Quick-witted Baby (Arabella and Kenneth) novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55
Kenneth took a cold shower in another presidential suite and came out in a black silk pajama.
Jared handed him a glass of red wine. "It stands to reason that Arabella can't sleep with you tonight. So how did she brighten your mood?"
Kenneth took a sip of red wine. "Is it that obvious that I'm happy?"
Jared leaned on the counter and took a sip of red wine. "The only thing you didn't do is announce it to the world."
Kenneth curled his thin lips. He admitted that he was in a good mood. Arabella was jealous over a phone call, so how could he be unhappy?
At this moment, there was a 'ding'. It was the doorbell.
Someone knocked on the door.
It was Cole.
Cole arrived in a hurry after receiving the call, and now, he carefully observed Kenneth's face. "Mr. Lucero, why did you call me here?"
Kenneth sat on the sofa. "Mr. York, why didn't you tell me Sadie answered my phone for me?"
Only then did Cole know that it was because of this. It was just a phone call, so Cole did not take it to heart at that moment.
"Mr. Lucero, is there anything wrong with that? Did Ms. Heath eavesdrops on some trade secrets?" Cole looked frightened.
At this time, Jared glanced at Kenneth while sitting on the sofa on the other side. "That's enough. Look how much you scared Mr. York. It's just a phone call, and there are no trade secrets. However, Mrs. Lucero was the one who answered the call. She misunderstood, and now she's jealous. She even had a quarrel with Mr. Lucero for two days. Because of that, Mr. Lucero is now staying in a hotel."
"..."
Cole was stunned. In his impression, Mr. Lucero was handsome, mature, and powerful. He should be a... henpecked male, right?
At this moment, the doorbell rang again.
Someone was here.
Cole walked quickly to open the door, and outside was... Sadie.
Speak of the devil.
"Ms. Heath, do you need anything?"
As a PR director, Sadie had to deal with men constantly. She was born beautiful and charming. She had long wavy hair and a hot body wrapped in a red dress, so many men would not be able to refuse her.
Sadie held a thermos cup in her hand and smiled charmingly. "Mr. York, I heard Mr. Lucero has been playing cards at the bar all night for the past two days. I made some soup for him, and I hope you can take it inside for him."
Cold sweat broke out on Cole's forehead. "Ms. Heath, I don't dare to decide for Mr. Lucero. I'll go in and ask him now."
Cole closed the door of the room and turned back. "Mr. Lucero, Ms. Heath is here. She said she made some soup for you, this..."
Jared smirked. "Everyone said that a woman's sixth sense is very accurate. It seems that Arabella's jealousy was not baseless."
Sadie came to deliver soup to Kenneth at night. She knew Kenneth was in a bad mood these two days because he quarreled with his wife. This would be the best time for her to take advantage of Kenneth's weak point if she came here acting gentle and understanding.
It seemed that the PR director Sadie had Kenneth on her mind for a long time.
Kenneth always had women by his side. Most of them would throw themselves at Kenneth so he could see through Sadie's schemes at one glance. Hence, he was emotionless. Instead, he said coldly, "Tell her to leave."
"Yes, Mr. Lucero."
"Wait a minute." Kenneth suddenly changed his mind. "Take the soup, then ask her to leave."
"Yes, Mr. Lucero."
