Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 130
The next day.Kelsey woke up feeling sore all over.She felt as if all the bones in her body had been taken apart and scrapped back together.Then, she stared blankly at the exquisite chandelier hung on the ceiling. She turned to the side and observed the large French windows that curved at an angle around the room.After a moment, she finally realized she was in Tyler's bedroom.She ruffled her messy hair.She was very confused.The last thing she remembered was making love with Tyler in the lounge in his office last night...How did she find herself back in the bedroom of his place upon waking up?Did he bring her back here after she fell asleep at some point?She tried to jog her memory and this was the only explanation that made sense.Meanwhile, Tyler was nowhere to be seen.However, she heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.Tyler must be taking a shower.This time, she no longer had the courage to intrude on him in the shower like she did last n

Kelsey grimaced. “A few days?”Was he implying that he was going to continue having his way with her after a few days?Tyler made a look at her and suddenly proposed dotingly, “You can rest as many days as you want.”Kelsey was relieved by that.Then, Tyler’s phone rang again.Kelsey glanced at the phone and stated grumpily, “Your phone is ringing again.”When was Zara going to stop calling?However, Tyler barely paid attention to the phone. He continued to stare intently at Kelsey.Kelsey felt her hair standing on end when she felt his gaze on her.“Why aren’t you picking up?”Tyler could care less about who was calling.The only thing on his mind now was Kelsey.“I will take responsibility for you.”He declared solemnly while reaching forward to gently cup her cheeks in his palms.Kelsey grew wide-eyed upon hearing this.For a moment, she suspected that she was dreaming.Did Tyler just vow to her that he would take responsibility for her?Was it because they had slep

Kelsey turned beet red.She shook her head hurriedly. “No, it’s nothing.”Tyler cast a meaningful look at her and did not bother to put the bathrobe back on.Instead, he went to the dresser and picked out a black tailored shirt.He took his time buttoning up the shirt, his delicate fingers smoothing down the fabric as he went.“Go and wash up. Meet me downstairs for breakfast when you’re done,” he beckoned softly.Kelsey blurted out, “I don't want to eat.”She was too drained to eat at all, the only thing she wanted to do was to sleep.Upon hearing this, Tyler drew toward her and towered over her again."Don't you want to get breakfast and then go to the church to finalize our engagement together?”He spoke with a sharp look gleaming in his eyes. There was a mark of dejection in his expression as he said that.He must have misunderstood Kelsey and assumed she was using her lack of appetite as an excuse.She was simply making up something on the spot to avoid having to get e

That was when Tyler's phone rang unexpectedly.It was Zara calling again.Tyler picked up the phone and stole a glance at the phone before he hung up on her without hesitation.“Why won’t you answer the call?” Kelsey could not stop herself from asking.Was it because it was inconvenient for him to talk to Zara in front of her?“Don’t worry about it.”Tyler leaned over and planted a kiss on her forehead to soothe her concerns.After that, he carried her downstairs.After he settled her on the dining chair, the doorbell rang.It was his subordinates delivering food for him.He proceeded to go to the front door to collect the food from them.Then, he opened each of the containers and set them in an arranged pattern on the dining table for Kelsey.It was a breakfast fit for a king, featuring cuisine from various parts of the world.There was Mexican breakfast, Italian breakfast, pastry, fruit juice and many more.However, Kelsey had very little appetite.She could not take h

Tyler gently patted her back.The look in his eyes darkened slightly. “Don't want to go with me?”Kelsey’s reaction was a little too dramatic for his taste.He could not help but doubt whether she was serious about wanting to marry him.“No, that’s not it!”She took a breath to compose herself and hurriedly explained.She was more than willing to get officially engaged with him, it was all she wanted!How could she possibly say no?“It’s just that… My official documents are still with my family,” she lowered her eyes and said worriedly.Previously, her father and his mistress tried to set her up and force her to marry the perverted old Mr. Vernon who was known to have killed all his previous wives.Kelsey was understandably against it, which led to a giant fight that ended in her running away from home.It had been some time since she last went back home.All her important documents were still in her father’s study.If she wanted to get officially engaged with Tyler, she w

She made up something about how taking the pills would help with getting pregnant.All it did was make her infertile, which further upset Cooper.She would much rather not ever have to deal with Maya again in this lifetime. This was the last person she wanted to meet.Unexpectedly, it was Maya herself who came to her.Along with Cooper’s father.What was going on?She barely acknowledged Maya’s enthusiastic welcome and proceeded to walk to another part of the house.Cooper frowned faintly upon noting the way she ignored his mother but made no further comment.It was Megan who lectured her instead, “Kelsey where are your manners? Maya was trying to greet you, don’t just ignore her!”Charlie was in the middle of chatting with Braun and did not notice the interaction that went down between Maya and Kelsey.Now that Megan had blatantly pointed it out, he decided he had to impose his authority as the man of the household.He frowned and ordered, “Kelsey, say hello to Maya!”Kels

Kelsey could not believe that after her father failed to wed her to Mr. Vernon, he had moved on to trying with Cooper instead.He must detest her a lot to put in so much effort in trying to get rid of her.“Dad, you were the one who told me to stay away from Cooper because you do not respect their family’s credentials. You said you would disown me if I ever had anything to do with them.”Kelsey bluntly exposed her father's hypocrisy right in front of the members of the Lyon family.Charlie’s face twisted into a scowl for a brief moment while he fixed a furious glare on Kelsey.He did say that in the past.Even now, he had a very poor impression of Cooper and his upbringing.Furthermore, he was born a bastard.The Lyons were not powerful either, there was a large gap separating them from the Langs.Cooper could barely compare himself to Tyler who was born the chosen child.However...The Langs had now broken off the engagement with the Youngs.There was virtually no more cha

What she had omitted was that she would not allow her precious daughter to marry someone like Cooper who was a bastard son without prestige.Her daughter must be wed to a proper, wealthy family!The only one who should marry Cooper was Kelsey.There was no way Josephine would marry him!“Is she now? That’s strange, I remember seeing her going on a date with Cooper the other time.” Kelsey stated candidly.Everyone in the living room was stunned with silence upon hearing this.The elders of the Lyons immediately cast a suspicious look at Cooper.Megan frowned with disgust and started telling off Kelsey, “What kind of nonsense are you going about? You must have got the wrong person!”Why would her darling daughter go out with someone like Cooper of all people?Kelsey took her time recalling the tale. “I remember they were at the seaside manor together. It wasn’t just me, there were many other people present who saw them too. Or are you suggesting that everyone was mistaken as wel

Kelsey and Rosette discussed the specifics of auditioning for Adrienne’s new film’s costume design role.As the time neared noon, Kelsey glanced at her phone. Tyler had not replied to her text message. It was nearly time for Susan’s birthday celebration at St. Gill’s. Kelsey decided to go ahead to St. Gill’s. While on the way, she gave Charlie a call to inform that Tyler would not be available for the celebration. Charlie’s voice reflected his disappointment. “What’s this? Why can’t Tyler make it?” Kelsey bit the bullet and explained, “I haven’t been able to reach him.” “I thought Tyler adored you. Why couldn’t you get in touch with him? Did you upset him?” Charlie grilled her. Kelsey refuted, “Things have been going well for us, thanks for asking. He has an emergency today.” Her bond with Tyler could not be stronger. Heck, they nearly went all the way this morning. The nerve of her father to put her down. Charlie was furious. “I knew I couldn’t count on you.” He

Kelsey frowned. “What are you up to now?” She doubted Charlie was so nice to want the family to be together for her grandmother, Susan’s birthday. It was probably an excuse to get close to Tyler. Since Charlie got together with Megan, Kelsey could count on her finger the number of times he had been to the nursing home to visit Susan. Kelsey could not remember the last time Charlie celebrated Susan’s birthday. Charlie could not even remember Susan’s birthdate. Yet, Charlie was so kind to throw her a party. Kelsey could only suspect that Charlie had ulterior motives. “How can you say that about me, Kelsey? I’m your father. Am I wrong to throw your grandmother a birthday party?” Charlie reprimanded. Kelsey was skeptical. “You’re not wrong, but…” It was uncertain whether he had Susan’s interest at heart. “But what?” Charlie asked. He started blaming himself. “I know that I listened to Megan and neglected you and Mom. I’ve gotten rid of her. Now, I just want to be a go

With a predatory glint in his eyes, Tyler pressed his lips against Kelsey’s.“I’ll take your silence as your consent.” “Hang on!” Kelsey pushed him away. She meant business since it was about his sleepwalking last night. “I have a question.” “What is it?” Tyler asked in a raspy voice, his lips still lingering across her skin. His hands eagerly pulled her gown off her. “Do you sleepwalk?” Kelsey asked. Tyler paused, his eyes bearing a weight of emotions. Kelsey knew she was right on the money. Tyler had known about his sleepwalking. “Did you know you were sleepwalking last night?” Kelsey said while fixating earnestly on him. She was more concerned about his health. Tyler seemed healthy. Yet, he wandered off in a sleeping state. Judging by Tyler’s response, it was not his first rodeo. Generally speaking, sleepwalking was associated with trauma or unresolved issues. Kelsey suspected that Tyler had been through some kind of trauma, or something in his past wa

Tyler opened his eyes abruptly. Bare and dominant, he loomed above Kelsey while his penetrating gaze looked deep into her soul.Lost in the heat of his kiss, Kelsey opened her eyes in confusion at his sudden pause. She met his profound gaze. Kelsey’s heart skipped a beat. Her breath hitched. She stared at the man towering over her in disbelief, her eyes bulging. Tyler was awake. He examined her, his eyes scouring every inch of her body. Once he was certain that it was Kelsey, Tyler was relieved. “I’m home, babe,” he uttered with a sigh of relief. Feeling assured, he closed his eyes and rested his head on her shoulder. He filled his lungs with her familiar scent. Kelsey was taken aback, but her head gradually cleared. She thought that Tyler would not stop their little bed activity. However, Tyler stayed in the same position for a while. His steady breathing came soon after. He fell asleep. Kelsey was in disbelief. Since he wanted her so badly, Kelsey ass

Worried, Kelsey followed Tyler in case he hurt himself or fell off the stairs. He was not in a conscious state after all. Kelsey would not be so abrupt as to wake him from his sleepwalking. She was aware that waking a sleepwalker could lead to shock or other health problems.Kelsey stuck close behind Tyler and made sure he got up the stairs safely. Tyler returned to their bedroom and lay on the bed. Kelsey drew close for a look. The soft moonlight streamed through the French windows, casting a hazy glow over his defined face.Tyler lay there motionlessly, his eyes closed.Kelsey watched him sleep tenderly. For a moment, she drooled over him. However, she quickly frowned at the smell of alcohol on Tyler. Kelsey went to open the window to let in some airflow, dispersing the fumes of liquor. She then picked out a fresh pair of pajamas from the closet for Tyler.Tyler would need a change of briefs too. However, Kelsey’s cheeks burned when she pulled his brief draw

Kelsey returned to the villa she shared with Tyler. She intended to tell Tyler how her day with her best friend had gone. Charles was somehow caught in the crossfire. Yvonne’s mother-in-law accused her of having an affair with Charles which did a number to his reputation. Kelsey wanted to ask Tyler about his opinion on returning Charles’ favor. Since Charles was Tyler’s childhood friend, Tyler must know him best. However, Tyler had business plans to attend to, so he would not be home for dinner.Kelsey was alone in the upstairs bedroom, occupied with all related matters involving her new business venture. Since Kelsey and Rosette were going to audition to design costumes for Adrienne’s new film, Kelsey felt it was essential to study the genre of the new film and Adrienne’s past fashion choices. Time passed. By the time Kelsey shut her laptop, it was eleven at night. Rising to her feet, she stretched and walked out of the bedroom. Kelsey was on her way downstairs

“I’m sorry, Kelsey. I’m sorry to ruin lunch,” Yvonne murmured. Kelsey put her arm around her shoulder. “Why are you apologizing to me? Charles told me what he needed me for. It’s okay to skip lunch.” She paused and looked at Yvonne, her head tilted. “But Yvonne, you seem to have changed.” “How so?” Yvonne asked with a raised brow. “You’ve become composed and cunning now.” Kelsey said with admiration, “But it’s a good thing. I don’t want you to be Adam and his family’s doormat. You didn’t marry him to be his slave.” Yvonne curled her lips. “I’ve been through a lot, but I’ve learned a lot too. I had to learn from my mistakes.” She used to walk on eggshells around her husband and mother-in-law. She gave them too much leeway, and they walked all over her. In the future, Yvonne would not be so dumb as to let others hurt her again. She needed to stand up for herself. … Kelsey dropped Yvonne back home. Before, Yvonne would cry to Kelsey for hours after Agatha humiliated

“Didn’t you hear what Yvonne said? She’ll go ahead with the divorce. She doesn’t want to stick around until you take everything from her.” Kelsey snapped an angry look at Agatha. “Your son is the one with an affair. Don’t put this on Yvonne. Save your breath for your son. Yvonne is the victim. Who are you to accuse her?” Kelsey could not stand Agatha. Agatha placed herself above others and used Yvonne as a punching bag. Charles tipped the restaurant manager the wink. The restaurant manager led a security team to Agatha. “This is a public place, not your playground. Please leave now.” Agatha was humiliated to be thrown out of the premises. Instead of breaking down and apologizing, Yvonne calmly agreed to the divorce. Agatha did not see it coming. She needed to talk to her son. Clearly, Agatha had to find new ways to keep Yvonne in line. “Hmph! In that case, I should ask your parents if they know about their daughter filing for divorce,” Agatha said. In Agatha’s opi

Agatha’s son, Adam, was the one who had an affair. Yet, Agatha made Adam out to be the victim instead. Yvonne became the wicked woman who cheated on Adam. Kelsey racked her brain to think of ways to prove Yvonne’s innocence. Yvonne broke her silence.“Tell me. What are you trying to achieve?” Agatha’s big fuss was met with Yvonne’s nonchalant reply. For a moment, Agatha was in a daze. In the past, Agatha often berated Yvonne until the latter had no choice but to apologize. Agatha had always kept Yvonne in line through aggressive methods. Yet now, Yvonne asked her what she wanted to do. Instead of having a meltdown, Yvonne carried herself with ease. Agatha narrowed her eyes and said bitterly, “We pride ourselves on our decency. We can’t put up with your cheating. Just finalize the divorce and get out of my family. I don’t want to carry your shame.” She glared at Yvonne in disdain. “Fine.” Yvonne readily agreed. Yvonne understood that Agatha was a pro at throwi
