Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

Chapter 604 - Girlfriends Part 1

 Kale turned to his side and smiled at the beautiful Cathy beside him. He reached her face and kissed her forehead. He should've known that she's this lovable. Women become lovable if you give them a lot of effort and love, by not ignoring them and hurting them.

 His dad is right, if he would love a woman and give her enough attention, she would give more attention and love. But somehow, he knew that she wasn't for him. There is someone more that could give it to her. He didn't love Cathy. He adored her and like her.

 He didn't wake her up and order from the hotel's kitchen food that she would love. She already told him everything that he needed to know about her, and it was so easy.

 He ordered something special for her and then maybe, he'll treat her to the mall. Her parents are abroad and don't have time for her so, here he is spoiling the girl.

 She woke up when he left the bed to the bathroom and she waited for him. He washed his face and brushed his teeth. Then, he approached her and give her lots of kisses on the face and neck.

"What do you want to do today?" He asked.

"Nothing at all." She shrugged. "It's Saturday, let's do whatever we could do."

"Okay." He chuckled and his phone started ringing.

"Why did it have that noisy notification?" She asked.

"It's our family group chat. Usually, during weekends, we will go out for training and other crazy stuff that my Aunt will set up for us."

"Training?" She asked.

"Yup. It's our family ritual or something."

 That's right. She didn't know that he's half, Mondragon. But they have rules that no one is going to tell it to anyone that is in that Empire or without telling their parents. They have to let them have the identity and run a background check. That's how they are strict with their girlfriends or boyfriends.

"Hmm." She nodded at him.

"Let's go to the mall today. How about that?" He said softly. She might think that he's cheating but his phone is still ringing.

"Aren't you going to answer that?" She asked.

"Oh, sorry!" He took it and answered it. "Hey,"

"Dinner meeting later. This is an emergency." Bea said.

"Okay. I got it! I'll be there."

"You better use a condom as well."

"Yes, ma'am." He hung up.

"Who's that?" Cathy asked.

"It's Bea. She said that we have a dinner meeting tonight. So, I'll drive you home at three, okay?"

 Cathy smiled and nodded at him.

 Laurence is supposed to be with his girlfriend Martina, but he needed to give time to his sister. After her aikido training with Jaxon, she said that she needed something in the bookstore. So, then, he drove his car to the bookstore.

 He put his arms around her and kissed her head, the way he usually does.

"I'll just check something there." She said pointing the other side.

"Yeah." Laurence stayed on one corner as he watched his sister going to the other side.

 He checked his phone and Martina send him her photo and he put a heart on it. She's probably out shopping.

 He checked the new erotic books and he smirked at as he read the synopsis.

"Hey, handsome."

 He stopped seeing Martina.

"Hey." He said and chuckled. He looked around to check his sister and she's busy checking some textbooks.

"I didn't know that you are here." Martina grinned at him. Laurence laughed.

"I am here to buy some books." He shrugged.

 Martina pulled him down and she leaned on the shelve as she kissed her passionately. She moaned and Laurence didn't have a choice but to kiss back passionately. He grabbed her butt and she moaned.

"Laurence," Someone pulled his shirt and he stopped and turned to the person grabbing his shirt.

"Oh," Esme's eyes widen.

"Hey, just go check out more books, okay?" Laurence said softly and Esme nodded.

"Yeah, so sorry."

"Yeah, just go check-out something for kids." Martian pushed her forehead with her palmed and she smiled at Laurence sweetly and pulled his neck.

 Laurence's face becomes grim and he pulled Martina's arm and pushed her.

"Babe, what's wrong?"

 Esme turned back and left quickly.

"Did you just do that to her?" Laurence asked her. Martina suddenly became afraid of him.

"What do you mean?"

"Do not ever do that to Esme. No. I won't ever let you do that to her again."

"Who is she?" Martian gritted her teeth. "I saw how you become affectionate to her!" She hissed at him.

"You don't care who she is," Laurence said with a low voice.

"I'm breaking up with you." Martina threatened him.

"I am breaking up with you," Laurence said slowly to make sure of that and he turned back from her and walked off.

"Laurence!" She screamed and everyone looked at her. "You can't do this to me." She walked briskly toward him. Laurence sighed and turned to her.

"You just hit my sister." He said it in low voice.

"I—I'm sorry."

 Laurence rolled his eyes and turned back from her. Martina felt embarrassed at that moment. Laurence approached Esme and scooped her face.

"You okay, sissy?" He asked softly.

"Y-yeah. I'm fine." She smiled at him.

"I'm sorry, okay?" He kissed her forehead.

"I'm fine," She smiled at him.

"That was my ex-girlfriend. Don't tell this to mom or dad. Or I'm dead."

"I'm fine, big bro." She said. He hugged her tightly and kissed her cheeks.

"Okay! I am going to treat you today. Where do you want to go?"

 She grinned at him.

"Really?"

"Yeah, anything you want." He patted her head.

"Okay!" She gave him the books and then a few pens and charcoal pencils that she needed.

"Just these? I mean, food."

"You keep feeding me. I'll get really fat."

"You need it for your training." He put his arms over her shoulders as they went to the counter and he had the basket on his other hand.

"Wait." She put away his hand and he ran to one shelf and took a bundle of the series novel. He laughed and took it.

"Okay!" Laurence didn't have a choice because he's paying for everything.

 After they buy it, they went to some restaurant to eat their lunch and drink whatever she wanted to drink. She said that she didn't want to drink cold water because of her voice. But she wanted bubble tea badly. So, he asked for them to only put 1 ice-cub and she let it melt and drink on it.

"You shouldn't sing for today."

"Yeah." She giggled. Then she suddenly stopped. "Did you break up with her?"

"Yeah." He said casually.

"I'm sorry." Esme pouted.

"Why? It's not your fault." He patted her head.

"It's surely my fault. I didn't' see her there since you are as big as the boulder."

 Laurence laughed so loud.

"She hurt you. And I won't have a girlfriend like that." He told. "Rule number 1, you can have a boyfriend or girlfriend as long as he or she won't hurt you physically and torture you mentally. Rule number 2, do not let anyone in the family that could harm someone in the family."

"What rule is that?" Esme asked.

"It's every Mondragon, Pattinson, Smith, Kuznetsov, William and Wilson's rule. It's every house's rule inside our Empire."

"Oh."

"So, if a boy is hurting you, you better tell it to me. I could give him a good beating."

"Your dad somehow did something bad." She said.

"What do you mean?"

"Chanel, Nicole, and Gwen and the boys who are involved have been kicked out of the Elite Academy."

"Oh, of course, they should be expelled."

"I feel bad that they should get expelled like that." She mumbled.

"Why?"

"I don't know. It's just a waste. The school has very expensive tuition and they just wasted it like that without finishing the school year."

"Yeah." Laurence nodded. "That's why they shouldn't do such a thing and they messed up with the wrong family."

"Your dad probably did something more." She said.

"No. Not really." He told. "Dad said that lots of students complain and there's some footage of their further bullying."

"Oh." Esme's eyes widen. "That's why some students are smiling at me now."

"That's good. You should focus on your training, okay?"

"Yes, big bro!" She saluted to him.

 They soon reached their house, wash their hands, and change their clothes. Then, Laurence went to their baby Zayne and give him lots of attention. Zayne is a good baby. He smiled at everyone and he only cried if he's hungry or had poop.

 He never had a baby brother like this or baby sister and he will surely spoil them a lot. He's already spoiling Esme and this baby brother is next and then the upcoming baby at his mother's belly.

"Hey," Ashaya entered the room and smiled at his son. "So, who is the girl that you are dating?" She grinned.

"I am not dating anyone." He looked away.

"What is Zendaya saying about the locker?" She crossed her arms.

"I broke up with her." He told.

"Oh." Ashaya nodded. "Why?"

"Mom, please." He gave Zayne to her. "I'm off, okay?" He kissed her forehead.
