Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 14
“Why don’t you have any clothes on?” Blushing in the face, Kelsey covered her eyes. In case Tyler made a move on her, she stared at him warily through the gaps between her fingers. Tyler stood there in a daze. “I don’t have any clothes on? Huh?” While talking, he approached her. Kelsey shouted in a panic, “Don’t come any closer!” She could not bring herself to talk about the absence of his boxers. Tyler followed her gaze to his lower abdomen. The realization hit him. Not only did he not fasten his bathrobe, but he removed the knot and let his bathrobe hang loose.“Ah!” Kelsey screamed once more, his cheeks rosy. “This is harassment. You…” She was about to rip into him when she realized that his modesty was covered. The shadow in his bathrobe turned out to be his black briefs. Kelsey was speechless and embarrassed. “How was that harassment?” Tyler drew close, his eyes dark and mesmerizing. Kelsey turned her face away shyly. She could not admit that her e

Kelsey had no idea how hot she looked. Tyler tensed up, his hand shaking while holding the hair dryer. Pursing his lips, Tyler tried to keep it in his pants. Tyler focused his attention on blowing her hair dry, making sure to be gentle and thorough. He turned off the hair dryer when her hair was nearly dry. Without the whirring noise of the hair dryer, their breathing became apparent in the tiny walk-in closet. The heavy, ragged gasps left the room hanging with unspoken tension.Tyler’s arm somehow hooked onto her waist. Kelsey was taken aback. She cocked her head back and met his fiery gaze. Kelsey shivered. Getting on her tiptoes, she kissed Tyler on the lips. Tyler was shocked. His eyes widened. He could not believe that Kelsey would kiss him. Her tongue glided across his lips. Unable to hold himself back anymore, he deepened the kiss. Despite his yearning, he soon let go of her. “You forgot to breathe. Yet, you kissed me.” Tyler looked at her with

Tyler averted his gaze, restraining himself from looking at Kelsey. He kept his head down and put the cap on the ointment before placing it back in the medical kit. “Get an early rest.” Tyler got up, ready to leave. What was that supposed to mean? Kelsey stared at his receding back in confusion. She could sense his yearning, and unlike before, she was more than happy to give him what he wanted. Yet, Tyler still walked out on her. “Where are you going?” Kelsey asked in disbelief. “The study,” Tyler replied in a raspy voice while striding to the door. Surprise fleeted across Kelsey’s eyes. “Aren’t… sleeping with me?” She asked meekly. A wave of despair weighed heavily on her. Tyler let her stick around, put her in his shirt, and rested her head on his bed. Even at that point, he would not touch her. Kelsey did not see the point of staying at his place. She simply did not get it. Tyler would not give her an answer either. He had left the master bedroom

Since it was nearly noon, Kelsey assumed Tyler must have left home and gone to work by now. Kelsey heard a woman talking downstairs when approaching the staircase. “I went to your office, Tyler, and your secretary said that you aren’t at work today. I thought I should check up on you in case you are sick.” Kelsey found the voice rather familiar. She listened carefully, and she finally determined the voice belonged to Zara. Zara’s presence at Tyler’s villa was the last thing Kelsey expected. Tyler simply gave Zara a chilling look without replying to her. His family owned the business, so he did not need to answer to anyone about his whereabouts, much less explain himself to Zara. A while later, he glanced at her in annoyance. “How do you know where I live?” Zara chuckled, not at all feeling embarrassed. She said smugly, “I live in the area too. Didn’t you know?” Zara bought a villa in the same community to be neighbors with Tyler upon learning of his residence the

Kelsey got goosebumps from listening to Zara’s talk. The only thing she was unsure of was Tyler’s stance. Tyler had not said much, and Kelsey could not read his expression and body language from upstairs. There was no telling whether Tyler consented to Zara’s advances or wanted to kick her out of the house. Knowing Tyler, Kelsey thought he would not be pleased with a woman finding out his address and making an abrupt visit. However, Kelsey could not read his repulsion and refusal in his little words. It was the very reason why Zara was pushing her luck. The situation in the downstairs living room was a mystery to Kelsey. She could only speculate if they were looking into each other’s eyes or hugging. For all they knew, they could be sharing a kiss. Kelsey was filled with unrest and agitation. Tyler had given the necklace, the only belonging of his parents, to Zara after all. Zara clearly meant a lot to him. Perhaps Tyler would use Zara’s visit to the house to

For the first time, Kelsey openly admitted to the public that Tyler was her fiancé. Zara turned ashen, her eyes narrowing on Kelsey. “Spent the night?” Zara murmured in shock. Assuming Kelsey’s statement was truthful, she would have crashed at Tyler's place last night. That would leave two adults alone in the house. One thing would surely lead to another. Zara cocked her head back and desperately looked at Tyler for confirmation. She hoped to hear Tyler deny last night’s events, even though the chances were slim. Tyler’s gaze fell on Zara as he contemplated a response. Suddenly, Kelsey clutched his tie and yanked him toward her. “Why are you looking at her? Is she hotter than me?” Tyler replied without thinking, “You’re hotter.” Bingo. Kelsey felt good. The displeasure of seeing Zara in Tyler’s pad lifted. Kelsey glanced at Zara’s grimace and asked, “Should I give you some space since Ms. Quest is here?” She motioned to push Tyler away. Tyler tightened

Zara sure had the nerve to stick around. Kelsey’s words made Zara’s blood boil. “You—” Her lips quivered with her resentment for Kelsey. Kelsey interrupted Zara from talking, “What? Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.” She showed Zara the door. Zara swallowed her anger. “Who said I was leaving?” Kelsey could think twice about getting rid of her. With a raised brow, Kelsey asked, “Don’t tell me you want to stay to watch me and my husband get intimate. Are you still trying to hook up with my husband?” Zara was furious because Kelsey’s statement hit a raw nerve. “Tyler is not your husband. Have you no shame?” Kelsey glanced at her mockingly. “We are engaged, and the man is mine. You’re the one without any shame for throwing yourself at him.” Zara’s face drained of color. “What did you say?” “Am I wrong?” Kelsey refuted nonchalantly, “You knew he had a fiancée, but you invited yourself to his place. Who knows what you are up to?” Zara was speechless.

Zara’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Tyler…” Her face turned pale with hurt. However, Tyler would not even look at Zara. He said sternly, “Get out!” Zara shivered in fear. She dared not stick around. Zara turned and headed to the door. Before her departure, Zara gave Kelsey a dirty look. The malice was apparent in her gaze. Kelsey could not care less. She and Tyler were still engaged. Despite Zara’s attempts to sink her claws into Kelsey’s man, she had been unsuccessful and shifted the blame to Kelsey instead. “Let’s just ignore her, babe.” Kelsey dangled Tyler’s arm, not wanting Zara to ruin their lunch together. To her surprise, Tyler released her arm without a word. He then went upstairs. “Hey, where are you going?” Kelsey asked in confusion. “The study!” Tyler responded. Kelsey blinked. “Aren’t you having lunch with me?” “Don’t wait up for me.” Tyler’s expression was hard to read. He disappeared into the depths of the spiraling staircase.Kels

Seeing how much thought Tyler put into her birthday, Susan felt confident that Kelsey was in good hands. Kelsey was lucky to marry a man like Tyler. The family was blessed to have Tyler. “All that matters is that you’re happy.” Tyler tended to Susan’s needs with respect. “I haven’t been this happy in a long time.” Susan nodded with a delightful smile. Kelsey could tell that Susan was a lot happier today. Susan had been feeling hurt since Charlie sent her to live in a nursing home. She felt like Charlie prioritized his side piece over his mother. It had been a while since Susan smiled again.The smile on Susan’s face was infectious. Kelsey’s face beamed. Tyler smiled along too. The lounge was filled with laughter and joy. After lunch, Tyler drove Kelsey and Susan to the nursing home. Susan, being elderly, fell asleep in the car. Tyler carried Susan back to her room in the nursing home. Kelsey could see how much Tyler cared about Susan. Tyler had to leave d

“Please… Save my baby…” With Steve walking away, Megan pinned her hope on the restaurant staff. The restaurant manager and staff had witnessed Megan insulting Tyler and Kelsey. They would not risk upsetting Tyler by helping her. The restaurant staff looked the other way and went back to their own business. Megan held her belly as resentment consumed her. Tyler’s support was the only thing helping Kelsey to take Megan down. Otherwise, Megan would still be living her life. First, Charlie threw her out. Even Steve left her. Steven beat her up, causing her to lose her baby. Megan blamed everything on Kelsey. She would make Kelsey pay. Megan vowed to get her revenge. Losing her willpower to the pain, Megan lost consciousness. It was a kind female patron who called the emergency line for Megan. …Kelsey helped Susan into the lounge on the top floor. The place was definitely remarkable. The interior was lavishly appointed, with each piece of furniture carefully

Steve mounted Megan and punched her face left and right. Megan would hurl abuse at him at first, but her tirade quickly turned into pleading. Steve smacked Megan over two dozen times, only stopping when Megan lay limp on the floor. He turned to Tyler, his grimacing face replaced with ingratiation. “I have taught the bitch a lesson, Mr. Lang.” Stoic-faced, Tyler did not spare a glance at Steve. Steve was irrelevant to Tyler. Tyler took strides to Kelsey and grabbed her hands. He murmured in her ear, “Do you feel better now?” Kelsey looked back at Megan’s swollen face and curled her lips. “She’s not worth my time anyway.” The constant struggles with Charlie and Megan over the years had hardened Kelsey emotionally.Megan’s verbal abuse was like water off a duck’s back. Besides, Charlie had kicked Megan out of the house. Megan’s words were nothing more than a desperate cry now. Steve was no better than Charlie, and Megan had it coming. Despite his age, Steve went

Megan widened her eyes in disbelief at Steve. “D-Did you just hit me?” The last thing Megan expected was Steve to attack her. She thought she had compromised enough by dating a man so much older.Steve had been spoiling her rotten lately, giving her everything she wanted. Megan had gotten a big head. She thought she had Steve in the bag. Yet, to her dismay, Steve assaulted her. “Bitch!” Steve made a face of disgust. “Why did you slander Ms. Young?” In Steve’s opinion, Megan was more trouble than she was worth. Steve had gone to great lengths to curry favor with Tyler. Megan had gone and insulted Tyler’s woman right in his face. To make matters worse, Steve was caught up in the mess too. Steve regretted spoiling Megan, and she had gone in over her head. Megan’s eyes welled up. “Steve…” Her lips quivered as she looked at Steve with a hurt expression. Paying her no mind, Steve was occupied with ideas to please Tyler. “She’s just an escort to me, Mr. La

Steve felt embarrassed. He had been wanting to make Tyler’s acquaintance, but a chance to meet him was hard to come by. Now that he ran into Tyler, Steve was determined to make the most out of it. “Let me be a host to you today, Mr. Lang—” Megan cut Steve off. “Mr. Lang, you might not know this, but Kelsey’s father is facing bankruptcy. He’s deep in debt too. Kelsey and her father are just going to be your burden. Don’t let Kelsey’s seemingly innocence fool you. They are just going to leech off you. My daughter, Josephine, is a nice and sensible girl. She’s a better companion than Kelsey. I’ll be delighted to introduce you to her.” Kelsey was impressed with Megan. Even now, Megan had not given up on pushing Josephine into Tyler’s arms. In Kelsey’s past life, Megan went to lengths to matchmake Josephine and Tyler. Nevertheless, Tyler never took an interest in Josephine. Megan was just as delusional as ever. However, Kelsey had no idea that Charlie owed a lot of mon

“She’s just a bitch.” Megan hissed through clenched teeth, her jealousy showing. She had a hunch. The sudden change in the manager’s attitude toward Kelsey was likely due to Tyler. Megan wished she had Kelsey’s luck to meet a good-looking and rich man. Steve did not believe Megan. If Kelsey was just an ordinary woman, the manager would not take her up to the exclusive top floor. That was a height Steve could never reach despite a lifetime of hard work. However, Kelsey had no plans to accept the manager’s invitation to dine on the top floor. Since Charlie would not be attending or taking Susan out of the nursing home, Kelsey had no reason to dine alone on the top floor. Kelsey was better off getting back to her new office and ordering a takeout. Her discussion with Rosette about the costume design for Adrienne’s new film would continue this afternoon.However, the manager stopped her from leaving and apologized to her frantically. “Please see it in your heart not to

It was upsetting enough for Kelsey since Charlie managed to deceive her once more. However, Megan had to gloat. “What did I tell you? I told you Charlie can’t afford this place. He can’t even show his face because he’s expected to pay the bill.” “Oh, quit it!” Kelsey glared at Megan. To think Kelsey would give her an attitude. Megan had Steve on her side now. She was no longer the other woman who lived off Charlie’s good graces. Surely, Megan earned the right to mock Charlie. “You’re the manager. Has St. Gills lost its exclusivity? It’s a disgrace that you let just about anyone in,” Megan said sarcastically. Kelsey retaliated. “Oh, aren’t you a picture of poise, Megan? With your sugar daddy, you can’t even make it past security.” “You!” Megan looked daggers at Kelsey. Livid, Megan commanded the manager, “Throw the bitch out now before I’ll make sure your establishment ceases to operate.” The manager narrowed his eyes on Kelsey and Megan. Judging by Kelsey’s mod

“Kelsey, what are you doing here?” Megan asked harshly.With Megan and Steve approaching, the manager drew close and welcomed them. It then dawned on Kelsey that Megan and Steve were the VIPs who took the private lounge from Charlie. The manager explained the situation, and Megan sneered. “Charlie is going broke. I doubt he can afford to dine at St. Gill’s. With his mounting debts, he’s embarrassing himself when the time comes to pay the bill.” Kelsey narrowed her eyes. Charlie must be using Susan’s birthday as a pretext to ask for more money from Tyler since the family business was going bust. However, Tyler had given Charlie a large sum of money. It was puzzling how Charlie managed to burn through it. Kelsey snapped back with a smirk. “Even so, Charlie is paying with his own money, unlike some people who can’t live a day without a sugar daddy.” Color drained from Megan’s face. Kelsey was basically calling her a gold digger. Megan would not be in this position in th
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 521
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
