My Quick-witted Baby (Arabella and Kenneth)
Chapter 289

Chapter 289

Arabella slowly raised her small hand to touch his slender waist. After her soft fingertips brushed against his six-packs, she gently hugged him.

Kenneth kissed her cheek and asked, "Does my figure meet your requirement? Are you satisfied?"

Arabella knew he was teasing her because he had overheard her chatting with Aurora in Floweret Garden. At that time, she had brazenly said she would marry a man with six-packs in the future. "Yes, I'm quite satisfied."

Arabella buried her flushed face in his chest. She was too embarrassed to raise her head but added softly, "I like you the most."

Kenneth's protruding Adam's apple rolled up and down. He felt thirsty, so he kissed her lips and asked, "Why is your mouth so sweet?"

Arabella was dazed by the kiss. Hearing his words, she blushed from her face to her fair-skinned slender neck.

Soon, Kenneth's tall and heavy body pressed her against the wall. He buried his face in her long hair to steady his breath, saying, "Bella, I must wait until you grow up."

Arabella felt sweet because of his care and respect, so she hugged him tightly.

"Mr. Lucero, you seem to mind me meeting Jenna and Tyrone very much. Why? Do you have anything to tell me?"

Feeling his muscles suddenly tensing up, she quickly added, "It will be OK if you're not ready."

Kenneth maintained the posture, holding her in his arms. Then, he clasped the back of her head with one big hand, slowly closed his pretty eyes, and said hoarsely in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, "Actually, there is nothing special. Anyway, I don't have much family affection for them. After my mother jumped into the sea, I was emotionally unstable. When they held her funeral, they did not find her body, so there was only a memorial tablet. But the tablet was burned by accident. When I arrived, there were only ashes left. After the wind blew, everything was gone. I was so angry that I failed to control myself and injured several people. Their injuries were serious. Then, the hospital diagnosed me with mental illness. So..."

Kenneth closed his eyes to cover the scarlet inside. When the bloody wounds in the past were reopened, he still felt so painful that he wanted to curl up.

Suddenly, a pair of small hands hugged his neck tightly. Arabella stood on tiptoe and kissed his handsome face heavily, saying, "Don't talk about it anymore. It's all over. You are not alone now, and I will stay with you forever."

Kenneth held her thin waist, opened his scarlet eyes, deeply stared at her, and said, "Bella, I confess. Before I met you, my life was full of holes because of my miserable past. Jenna and Tyrone are both witnesses to my worst days. People grow up. When one grows strong and has the armor, others cannot hurt him or her anymore. Now, I don't care about others' thoughts. But I don't want you to know about my past, so I am unhappy to see you get close to Jenna and Tyrone. I've confessed to you. If they tell you about my past, please ignore them and turn around to leave, okay?"

Arabella's eyes suddenly turned red. Mr. Lucero was sick. His mother's death had upset his emotions. However, an accident happened at the funeral and completely crushed him when he had been on the verge of a mental breakdown. So, he had hurt people and been diagnosed with mental illness.

Who had planned this? One person or a group of people?
