Melisa had sat on the patio of her bedroom taking care of Zoey. She had already had her fair share of grandchildren but having a great grandchild as precious as Zoey makes her smile endlessly. “Just wait until those fools marry, I will shower you with so many gifts.” Due to Kaleah’s modesty she had to dress Zoey in Cyan’s old clothes, her beautiful fair skin covered with jumpers and jackets to protect her from the cold. Cyan had complained that she might overheat but Cyan had raised some children to tell know how sensitive babies skin was. She fondles with the precious cheek of her future greatgrandchild, “I will also have to get adoption papers ready, once you are legally a Beckett You will be my great grandchild for life.” The first Fool (Kaleah) had been refusing the courtesy and sincerity of Melisa buying Zoey gifts with the reasoning that Melisa had helped them enough. But when she marries the second fool (Clayton) no one can stop Melisa from spoiling her great grandchild. The

(Clayton’s POV) This must be some joke; my grandmother had said she chose someone suitable for me. But instead, the person is one who avoids me and shuts me down when I flirt with her. Was this all a ploy, did she successfully use my sister to get into our family? I finally found a flaw in her; I had thought she was innocent but instead she had been planning to force me into marrying her. If she just reciprocated my feelings when I flirt, then she would have had to use Cyan. “Tsk, grandmother said she found me a good partner.” “Well, the thing is, I had… I had…...” she tries to explain but it all comes out disingenuous. “I had fell for you at first sight.” She lies, she sweetly lies with her little pink lips, her green eyes shake at the dishonest words she had just said. “So, when I fell in love with you, I... I was too shy to approach you directly and you have a girlfriend and then grandmother produced this plan.” She gulps, her lies becomes plausible with every word or maybe it

(Kaleah POV) The date had been a slight success, one Clayton did not kill me, which is something I had thought he would after the story Cyan told me where he killed his parent’s killer. “How was the date?” As soon as I enter the house, I am greeted by Conan’s prying face and Cyan’s enthusiastic face. I had known Conan for a little while now and though he had grown on me, his mischievous nature tends to be too much sometimes. “You set me up like that and you expect a good outcome?” I immediately pouted at them, it would have been nice if they warned me about the identity of my date, but no I had to find out by meeting the devil himself, without prior preparations. “Don’t lie to us, we all know how Clayton looks at you like some angel.” “That doesn’t mean he want to marry me,” I defended, “he is probably just infatuated and just wants to bed me.” “Clayton infatuated?” they both say in union before laughing to my face, these fools. “So, when is the wedding.” Conan asks. “I don’t

“Isn’t two months a bit too soon.” Cyan is the one who helps me object, but she was quickly silenced by Melisa and Clayton who didn’t want to postpone.“We need to plan the wedding soon; these lovebirds just cannot wait.” Melisa enthusiastically said earning a nod of approval from Clayton.It seems however we disapproved we were not going to get through them, so I thought of a safe and easy compromise.“Can we keep it lowkey?” I see both Melisa and Clayton freeze at my suggestion, Melisa was not one to curb her extravagant, Cyan had told me that at least. “I really don’t want to attract too much attention to our marriage, given it will also be too quick for Clayton to move on from Hailee.”“But I never went public with my relationship with Hailee.” Clayton reason, trying his best to not curse at me, I know that because his eyes refuse to meet mine.“I am sorry for that, maybe this will make up for our sudden marriage.”Though Melisa wasn’t on board with this new development, she could

[Third person POV] “Um... no, I am actually here to see Mr. Beckett.” Kaleah says unconfidently. The two women laughs at her before one saying, “please go back home we are not a fanservice company.” “Do you have an appointment?” the man asks. “Well, no, but the receptionist said gave us permission to visit.” Kaleah explains, “Cyan said I should come here.” With that two of the women there had laughed at her before saying, “please come up with another act, that one is overused.” “But I am not lying, I am…a family friend.” She says innocently, the three are resistant but one of the secretaries says. “Okay Miss, what is please write your name and surname here and I will take you to Mr. Beckett.” The three gasps at her, “Miss Collins what are you doing?” they all say in union. “Well, we did get a go ahead from reception that Miss Beckett is here with a friend.” Miss Collins says, taking the form and pen from Kaleah. While se escorts Kaleah, she hopes her gut feeling didn’t is rig
