SuperCorp - Arranged Marriage

chapter 15

Lenas pov:

I can't believe Kara got me to sing with those annoyingly cute and persuasive puppy eyes. The worst part is I actually enjoyed it. We both spent the rest of the drive home singing and laughing.

Even though I missed my coffee this morning today seems like it is going to be a good day and dare I say that I actually feel happy. Thank the Lord for Kara Zor-El Danvers. My hero.

When we finally did get back to Kara's we took all of my stuff upstairs.

"You don't have much, did you want to unpack now? Saves us doing it when we get back from the beach house next week" Kara asks.

"Yeah can do, once those suit cases are empty we can just fill them with what we need to take with us. As you're by the book shelf did you want to unload the books?"

"Sure. Oh, mum sorted the wardrobe out whilst we were gone. She said she put all of my stuff into the left half so the right side is all yours"

I nod and unzip the first suitcase. I look through a few things and notice that all of the items in this case still has the tags on.

'Contaminated' or not, some of the dresses in this case range from $10,000 to nearly $40,000. Although she never bought any of them, my father did for when we went out to galas and other parties and knowing Lillian, because they were my clothes she wouldn't have even looked.

I must say, for a woman that claims to be extremely smart and better than everyone she is being very generous in her stupidity. If she had of bothered to go through my things herself she would have found that the 'poor' family that she gave me away to, have just become a rather rich family.

"Kara, do you have a pen and paper?" I ask. I'm going to add up the cost of each item with tags still on. I bet the end amount will be more than this house cost.

"Uh, sure, here. What do you want that for?"

Honestly, all of the money she has practically just gifted to me without even realising it could have funded I hate to think how much into Lillian's illegal activities. It's not just the clothes but the jewellery I had hidden in my books. All of it diamonds or other expensive gems.

Who would have thought, Lillian Luthor, criminal mastermind would screw herself over? I must say, if I thought I was happy earlier then I am ecstatic now.

I laugh to myself just thinking about Lillian's mistake. All those years of taking her shit seemed to have literally paid off. All those years of her thinking I was a brainless bastard, my father's abomination. I wonder, would she still think that if she knew that I had hidden thousands, maybe even close to millions under her nose and taken them without her knowing... I mean all of it is rightfully mine to take but if she knew I can't help but wonder if she would change her opinion.

"I'll tell you once I've finished, love" I say chuckling again.

I start sorting through each item, the first one was a pair of jeans, they we're only $20. The next was a dark red sleeveless blouse with a deep v neckline. It's actually quite pretty. That only cost $20 as well.

Now the next item I picked up was a white dress with a pretty lace back, it would probably hang about knee length. I'd give more specifics on the designer and what not but I wouldn't know where to start, the tags show the price but not the make so a lot of them are probably custom made by the designers themselves as a private sale or something. As you have probably figured out, I'm more into cars, don't get me wrong I like pretty clothes as much as the next girl I just don't see the need to know everything about the item. Anyway, this dress is a little more pricey, $20,000.
