Skipped At The Altar, Taken By His Uncle novel Chapter 137

Chapter 137

After a long kiss, Whitney was left breathles..`

“Klein, why are you so stingy? she complained.

All she wanted was for him to do her a favor and play along with her, and now he was already asking for payback.

“Stingy Klein licked his lips, savoring the taste. “How out I show you what it’s like when I’m not stingy?”

Before Whitney could react, Klein claimed her lips again.

The next morning, Whitney stormed out in her high heels, not even bothering to step into the dining room. She swep like a whirlwind.

Martin watched her leave angrily and asked, “Mr. Harris, did you and Mrs. Harris have a fight?”

Klein took his time with breakfast and said, “Come on, we’re still in the honeymoon phase. Why would we fight?”

He set down his fork and knife, and straightened his tie. Her car had been sent for maintenance yesterday, so she proba hadn’t gone far yet.

He hadn’t planned on doing anything last night, but his little bunny just kept wriggling in his arms.

By the time Whitney tried to escape, it was already too late.

The little rabbit was caught by the hungry wolf.

Klein hurried after her. But when he stepped outside, she was gone.

Where was she?

Whitney took a few days off for her wedding leave and then came back to work.

She even brought some wedding cupcakes for her colleagues.

Frank and the others were all shocked. Who would’ve thought Whitney would just suddenly get married?

Ivan was the only one from the law firm who showed up at her wedding, and he was also the only one who knew Klein was Whitney’s husband.

That night, Ivan really got his horizons broadened. The wedding was crawling with big shots and VIPS, and some of them even ended up sitting right next to him. Even he had to admit his nerves were tense around those men

And Klein even came over to raise a glass with him, which showed how serious he was about Whitney

Now, his phone was packed with contacts from Ravorport’s elite circle

Loving someone wasn’t just about sweet words. It was more about what a man did, and how he treated her family and

friends

Honestly, Ivan was impressed. At least Klein was someone Whitney could really count on.

stir the pot.

“Wow, I never thought Ms. Moore would settle down so soon. Talk about getting hitched young. Gina mocked.

“You’re too young. Someone as gorgeous as you should’ve landed a rich husband!”

Gina just couldn’t stand how well Ivan treated Whitney.

She was convinced that ever since Ivan dumped her, he must’ve hooked up with Whitney. Otherwise, why was he so hung up on Whitney?

And then there was that variety show thing. Townsend personally picked Whitney to be on camera. With all that old and new beef piled up, Gina hated Whitney’s guts.

The once cheerful vibe instantly turned awkward. Whitney just smiled and said, “So, Ms. Parsons, you’re aiming to be a gold-digger? I wonder if Mr. Fischer can meet your standards?”

That casual jab made Gina’s face darken.

Whitney was calling her a gold-digger in front of so many people.

When Ivan walked in, Gina swallowed all the snark she was about to spit out. She just huffed, rolled her eyes, and stormed

off.

Ivan frowned as he watched Gina storm off. “What’s she doing here?” he asked.

Just stirring up drama, as always. Don’t worry. She can’t bully us,” Whitney replied.

Whitney wasn’t about to run and complain.

Totally! Whitney just roasted Ms. Parsons and her face went pale!” someone chimed in.

Back in her office, Gina was still fuming. The more she looked at Whitney, the more she just couldn’t stand the sight of her.

Ever since that Harris Group project, Whitney’s status at the firm had skyrocketed. Townsend would always pick her first whenever something good came up.

What about her? She had a whole decade more experience under her bolt! Why was this girl getting ahead of her?

Hector walked into the law firm early in the morning and saw Gina looking all gloomy. “What’s up? Who got on your nerves this early?”

“Hector, do you think I’ll make it as a non-equity partner this year?” Gina asked.

Hector pursed his lips and said, “Hard to say You know Whitney! She’s been stealing the spotlight lately

“So what if she’s getting all the attention? I joined the firm way before she did! Gina shot back

Hector’s eyes flickered. Being a non-equity partner wasn’t just about seniority

It was not just about seniority One needed the numbers and the skills to back it up

But Hector kept his mouth shut

He knew better than to say more. If he started talking, Cina would just give him hell when they got home

Whitney went to the dealership to pick up her car, and as soon as she got there, Samuel called her up, sounding all excited.

“Whitney, Laura finally agreed to the divorce! So, how about inviting Klein over for dinner at home sometime?” Samuel said his voice practically bubbling.

Whitney hadn’t expected him to pull it off so quickly.

“It’s really done! Don’t believe me? I’ll send you a pic of the divorce papers!” Samuel insisted.

Whitney just curled her lips and said, “No need. I’ll look it up myself.”

She just settled into a seat at the dealership and called up a friend from college, asking him to look something up for her.

Less than ten minutes later, she had her answer.

When Whitney read the message, she was in disbelief.

Laura really got divorced that quickly?’ Whitney thought, stunned.

And she didn’t even try to get any of Samuel’s assets?’

Alright then it was time for her and Klein to put on their little show.

ust thinking about how greedy Klein had been last night made Whitney want to sink her teeth into him.

she’d piled on layers of concealer today just to hide the evidence from last night.

Now that she’d already paid her dues, she could order him around guilt-free.

Come pick me up. We’re going to Moore Manor.]

Klein glanced at his phone with a smirk, and texted back,

Your wish is my command, honey. I’ll be at your office in half an hour!]

Whitney skipped picking up her car, hopped in a cab back to the law firm, checked in at the office, and then headed out. The uming was perfect.

Just as she stepped out of the elevator, she bumped into Gina, who was about to head in.

“Well, Ms. Moore, must be nice. What lawyer actually gets to leave on time every day?” Gisa snarked.

Whitney rolled her eyes and said, “Smart people finish their work fast. The clueless ones have to stay late and pretend they’re working hard.”

“I won’t keep you from your hard work. Ms. Parsons, Whitney added with a smirk
