“Clay honey tell me what you said was a joke?” “What are you doing here? Who told you about this?” I asked her angrily, “and what the hell are you wearing.” “I know about your grandmother’s fatal accident and death I am sorry.” “Girl who died?” Grandmother says angrily, I didn’t know if it was because she hated Hailee or because she hated being seen as a grave, but her voice had almost reminded me of all that scolding I got when I was a kid. “Oh... you are alive,” she said in shock, but the disappointment was certainly there in her voice, “I am happy grandmother is okay.” “You, follow me” I shout at Hailee, as I leave, I sense a bit of disappointment in Kaleah, she avoids my eyes. I halt in front of her before giving her a kiss on the forehead, let us make the right choices like father said, never give your wife a reason to feel jealous or inferior. Kaleah’s cute eyes with the gesture makes me happy, she seems to be the beautiful light at the murky world I have basked myself in.
My scam marriage: It is real. Chapter 22 – Gentle husband
“Uh... Cla...” I catch myself trying to call him by his first name, like I have the right, “Mr. Beckett, you are here,” I say sadly. He looks me in the eyes, I prepare to be scolded and screamed at, he gently touches my throbbing hot cheek. “Clay... that woman doesn’t” and the most shocking thing, Hailee seem to be more scared that I am, “I had my men to a background check you should know why she is marrying you, she is…” “You really disregard my warnings don’t you miss Leech?” Clayton says angrily, huh why is Hailee the one in trouble? Like she said they reconciled “Clay?” I called him confused, why is she on her knees, why is Hailee the one crying? “You are in trouble yourself Leah, how dare you let her touch your beautiful cheek huh, do you want to attain bruises so close to our wedding day” he gently scolds me, I feel scared, this feels too surreal, I cannot make sense of what is going on. “That woman is not who she tells you, even your own sister is deceiving you” Hailee sa
My scam marriage: It is real. Chapter 23 – Rats and clout.
[Kaleah POV] “Good morning welcome to Bistro Bazaar, table for two?” A short, sweet lady welcomes us as we step inside the restaurant. “Yes, please,” Clayton replies, before we are shown to our table. As always for Beckets we get the exclusive table, I don’t complain anymore, Cyan didn’t go to expensive tables since I had always complained about money, when I sold paintings, all my money went to my father’s account, wait, I never even saw the money I got from my paintings, what did that man do with my money? “Are you okay?” “Oh…” Clayton brings me back to reality, but I now feel dazed. I had let my father keep all the money for all my paintings from when I was still a child, mother never saw this money as well, nor did he even use the money on anything as we still lived in a rundown apartment and had trouble paying for mother’s medical fees when she was pregnant. “It is nothing just reminiscing of the past,” I say, not entirely a lie. “Penny for your thoughts?” “It is just s
My scam marriage: It is real. Chapter 24 – Did someone say greedy father?
[Clayton POV] “So, Mr. Huxley what bring you here?” I asked antagonistically, I had allowed him in the house with a heavy heart, I know Kaleah probably wouldn’t want this man here. “Oh... son in law is very antagonistic hey,” he says making me cringe to my last bone, “I just came home from a business trip to find my two daughters not home,” “Wow,” Conan exclaimed, everyone knew the situation between Kaleah and her father, so his absurd excuse made even crazy Conan speechless. “Is that so, I didn’t see you during your wife’s funeral, so I assumed you didn’t really care for my fiancé,” he is embarrassed by my statement, “forgive me for not asking your permission to marry her.” My grandmother glares at me, I know he is a jerk, but I need to butter him up before I crush him, he will feel every pain he put Leah and Zoey through. “Oh… don’t worry Mr. Beckett everything is okay, as long as Kaleah and um… the little one is safe.” He doesn’t even know Zoey’s name this jerk, I want to pl
My scam marriage: It is real. Chapter 25 – Pre wedding jitters.
[Kaleah POV] I cannot understand why that man came back to my life, just a few weeks ago he snorted at my very existence and now he claims to love and care for us. ‘Knock-knock-knock’ “Who is it?” I shout softly, the Becketts must be really tired of my problems by now. “Your fiancé,” “Oh…” wait Clayton visiting my room? Why, “come in,” I say with a low tone. After father left last time, I stormed to my room and locked it. I cried my eyes out the whole night, Cyan took care of Zoey for me. “Hey…” he said softly, walking in. “Hi.” “Are you okay?” wow he came to my room this early to ask if I was, okay? “I am fine Clayton I was just overwhelmed last night that is all. You are getting ready for work?” I ask, he was dressed in his usual formal attire. “Not really, there is an urgent matter you and I have to sort out.” I can feel my mouth dry up, oh what, is he cancelling the marriage? Of course, this is the only way to clear his dirtied reputation. “Oh…” “This might be a bit
My scam marriage: It is real. Chapter 26 – Loose ends
[Third person POV] He had thought he had done a good job leaving his dead wife after she gave him yet another girl, a useless girl. After hearing about her death, he thought good riddance another useless woman who can’t give him a single son. When he saw his daughter holding her sister that day, he had snorted at them, yes there was a time he loved her, the time where those paintings were selling like hot cakes and the money were enough to take his precious legal wife, Josephine, out on vacations. “What did she say?” Josephine asked her husband, “how much is for dowry?” He could not help but feel like a failure when he saw videos of her and Clayton Beckett on gossip sites, he had thought the heavens were given him a sign. “She chased me out, but worry not I will get the money,” he watches his wife pouting, they had been running low on money since both do not have a job at the moment. “You need to fix this Oren’s fees are very expensive we need our son to go to the best school.

My scam marriage: It is real. Chapter 27 – Bachelorette.
[Third person POV] Hailee had been pacing since she saw the news of Clayton getting married, it was unheard of, they said they would marry in a month. “Love I think it is time you give up, she is his wife now and you cannot do anything to her.” her father says, but Hailee’s reaction altogether made him nervous. “Are you insane, the is always divorce okay, ugh…..., I will have to crash that gathering they have tomorrow, then I would deal with her decisively.” Though she was warned enough times, for some reason she still felt like Clayton was still in love with her, thus she didn’t believe his retaliation would be that extreme. [Kaleah POV] Again, I have locked myself in the room after that embarrassing fall, I think I should stay here for a while. It seems to be busy outside since I woke up, it has been noisy. “Unlock this door Leah, we need to get your dress ready,” I hear Cyan outside the door, “open this door or I will talk to insane Conan to knock this door down.” I sigh be
