In my one-bedroom rental, I put Coco to sleep in the bedroom.
Caleb sat on the sofa, looking around, visibly tense.
I threw the bank card at him.
So this was how Caleb's mother felt when she threw that twenty-million-dollar check at me years ago. Being rich feels good.
"There's nineteen million on this card."
"It buys you for three years."
I sat sideways on Caleb's lap, draping my arms loosely around his neck.
"So, Caleb... are you single?"
"I don't need a male nanny. I don't waste money like that."
I whispered in his ear.
Caleb knew exactly what I meant.
The small mole on his neck bobbed as he swallowed.
Caleb seemed ashamed of his reaction, turning his head away to avoid my gaze. "Mmh."
We were so close I could feel the vibration in his chest.
[The leads are still fighting over there, and the villain is already holding the baby? You guys are tight-lipped! The villain is eating good, why didn't you tell us? Trying to keep it all to yourselves?]
[Caleb locked the heroine up just for show. The ex-wife comes back and he instantly turns into a pure puppy. Turns out he really just treated the heroine as a substitute.]
[Sister, hurry! Bully him!]
I looked at Caleb's flushed neck and the veins popping out, feeling very satisfied.
I cupped his face, ignoring his resistance, and kissed him.
Caleb pushed at my shoulders but instinctively responded, a tantalizing mix of rejection and welcome.
Between breaths, he pushed me away slightly, a look of stubbornness on his face.
Our breakup had been ugly. He probably felt that being "bought" so easily was beneath his dignity.
"And you? Are you single?"
His breathing was ragged, hot breath spraying on my face, raising my own body temperature.
"What do you think? Carrying a child and cheating with an ex?" I retorted, panting as I started stripping Caleb's clothes.
I paid for this!
As soon as the words left my mouth, Caleb's eyes lit up like a fire, scorching hot.
He grabbed my hand, trying to flip us over, but I pinned him down firmly.
"I paid the money. I'm on top."
"Some people need to remember their place."
[Where's the rest?! Show us the rest! Hey! We need to have a conscience here!]
[What can't I see as a VIP member?!]
[I'll pay! I'll pay money, okay?!]
[Why can't I see it even if I pay?!]
[I'm suing! I'm taking this to the Supreme Court!]
