They were all from Tyler.Kelsey went through each message.“Kelsey, something urgent came up and I have to fly overseas.”“I am very sorry for not spending time with you on our wedding night. I will make up for it when I return!”“I am about to board my flight, you can call your friend and ask her to keep you company.”“Make sure you sleep early, goodnight!”The text Tyler sent about him boarding the plane was from about four hours ago.It was around the time when she was dozing on the couch. She never picked up his calls nor answered his messages.She wondered if his flight had landed yet.She hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to video call Tyler.She wanted to assure him that she was safe at home.Unexpectedly, Tyler answered the call almost immediately.He had already gotten off the plane and had gone to the hotel.The moment he saw Kelsey on his screen, a doting look filled his eyes.He would give anything to fly back home right now and take Kelsey in his

Kelsey continued trying to contact Tyler.She had called him more than twenty times in a row by this point but he still would not pick up.The same went for the video calls.It seemed like she had truly lost contact with Tyler who was in another country.She grew increasingly restless.Although it was already past midnight, she hardly felt the urge to sleep.She stayed up because she was too worried about Tyler.She did not know how to find out about what had happened to him.Then, she suddenly thought of someone who could help her.Tyler's assistant, Shawn.He had always brought Shawn with him on every business trip.The only problem was that Kelsey did not have Shawn’s contact information.Her only resort was to go to the Lang Group in person to ask for it.However, it was already midnight. There were not going to be any employees at the building.She would at least have to wait until tomorrow morning.With this in mind, she paced back and forth anxiously in the living

Kelsey grew solemn. “Shouldn't you be more concerned about how Tyler suddenly cut off the video call with me and hasn’t gotten in touch with me since last night?”Charles apologized immediately. “My bad, I'll call my friends right now, let’s see if any of them can help you find out where Tyler is.”At the same time, he was delighted by how much Kelsey cared about his good friend’s safety.However, he was no longer in such a joyous mood by the time he finished the phone call.He suddenly grew tense. A rigid, frosty look came upon his dashing features.Kelsey asked anxiously, “Any news? Did you find out anything about Tyler?”Charles hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to tell her his findings.“They told me there was a fire on the island where Tyler was staying last night. It started right in the forest cabin where he was staying.”Kelsey was horrified. “What? A fire? Is he safe?”Charles grew concerned. “I don’t have any valid information on his situation yet. Look,

Apart from setting fire to the house to distract Tyler's bodyguards, Barton also sent more than a dozen of his thugs to break into the house.However, what he did not foresee was for Tyler to subdue all of the professional fighters by himself.Marshall was completely in awe of the feat and would not stop going on to Charles about how he had never seen such a terrific fighter.The entire time, Charles could not help but be awed by how terrifying Tyler was.He was aware that Tyler had once been deployed in the army and had gone through special training, but no one ever had a fair estimate of how strong he was as a fighter.After this episode, he finally had a good impression of just how much Tyler was capable of.Tyler must be a formidable fighter to be able to fight his way out with his bare hands when he was completely outnumbered.It looked like Charles should be careful to not upset Tyler in the future.While he was still thinking about this, the speedboat had finally arrived
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 147
That was when they heard footsteps coming from outside.Marshall’s men were monitoring the area and had the place tightly guarded.No outsiders were allowed in the area unless it was…As soon as Charles threw open the door, Kelsey immediately spotted Tyler who was lying on the bed.“Tyler!”She cried out exasperatedly and rushed toward him.She was relieved to see him alive and well.It was only upon approaching Tyler that she realized that his injuries were nowhere close to minor.There were bandages strapped around his arms, stomach, and legs.She immediately stopped herself from lunging into his arms.A terrible feeling took over when she realized the extent of his injuries.“Come here!”Tyler suddenly waved her over.Several hours ago, Marshall had already clued him in about Charles bringing Kelsey over to the island to visit him. Still, he could not contain the surging joy inside him when he finally saw Kelsey appearing in person.He wanted nothing more than to take

“I’m sorry for making you worry about me.”Tyler embraced Kelsey tightly and whispered a heartfelt apology in her ears.Kelsey leaned against him and sobbed. “Did you know how scared I was when the video call was suddenly cut off and I couldn’t contact you all night?”"I promise this will never happen again.” Tyler vowed softly.With Tyler coaxing her, Kelsey's nerves slowly subsided.She sniffled faintly, then suddenly turned up to him and asked, “How serious are your injuries?”“The doctor has already attended to me, it’s nothing serious.” Tyler softly assured her and pressed his forehead against hers.He was withholding the truth. When he was fighting off the gang of thugs, he nearly had one of his ribs broken.Fortunately, he was a good fighter and had good instincts, otherwise, it would have turned out worse.However, he still came out of the scuffle with a broken left arm and a sprained right arm. In addition, he had various wounds of different degrees riddled across his
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 149
As Tyler made the remark, he gestured at the wounds riddled across his body, then he slowly gestured to his lower half…Upon registering what he was hinting at, Kelsey blushed red like a ripe tomato.“Quit it! Don’t be a pervert first thing in the morning!”She shot him a vexed look but was careful not to make abrupt movements to avoid irritating his wounds.“For my part, I would love to be a pervert.”A misty, lustful look suddenly filled Tyler’s eyes upon reaching this note. He drew himself closer to Kelsey and said, “Say, we haven’t properly celebrated our engagement yet, why don’t we…”Kelsey could feel his breath beating against her cheeks as he spoke. Her heartbeat accelerated against her will.“We can wait until you are fully recovered,” she remarked shyly.Tyler tipped his finger against the bottom of her chin and made her face him.“Why don’t we settle for a kiss for now?” He suggested curtly.Kelsey yelped. “Huh?”He wanted her to kiss him?Tyler continued to draw

Yvonne was pregnant?!Kelsey was flabbergasted.She immediately asked Yvonne to come out to meet her.They decided to meet at a fancy restaurant.As soon as they met, Yvonne handed her the keys to the apartment. “Kels, I already moved home.”Kelsey was taken aback. “What? You moved back already?”Yvonne nodded. “Yes, Adam has apologized to me. Besides, it's inconvenient to live by myself since I’m pregnant now.”Kelsey could not shake off her concern. “Are you sure Adam realizes his mistakes?”Perhaps he was only pandering to Yvonne’s soft nature because he found out she was pregnant. Perhaps the goal was just to bring her home so she could birth a child for him.Yvonne smiled self-satisfactorily. “He was very sincere with his apology this time, I guess he did it for the sake of our child.”Kelsey then asked, “What about your mother-in-law? Is she still living at his place?”Even Yvonne herself seemed taken aback upon reaching the mention of her mother-in-law. “She apologize

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
