Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 148
“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 was only hoping to let Yvonne eat something but ended up ordering too many meat dishes. A few bites were all it took to upset Yvonne’s stomach and cause her to throw up violently.“Alright!”Yvonne smiled gracefully.Kelsey went forward to help her up, then they returned to their seats.Unexpectedly, she heard Cooper's voice when they passed by one of the private boxes.“Mr. Barton, here’s to working together!”This piqued her attention and caused her to turn around to spy a look.Through the glass window fitted on the door, she saw Cooper sharing a toast with none other than Barton.There was no way she would forget Barton’s face.Last time in the club, she almost got killed by one of his men.She also recalled Tyler mentioning that the incident on the island in Phindeo had something to do with Barton.She was not expecting to see Barton and Cooper sharing a toast together today.Nothing good could ever come out of these two. They must be up to something nefarious a

Kelsey was taken by shock.As it turned out, Cooper did spot her just now!He even noticed Yvonne going to the washroom to throw up.A wary look flashed across her eyes. “What are you trying to say?”Cooper chuckled, a sinister glow flashed across his eyes. “Nothing, I was just checking up on your friend.”Checking up on her?Kelsey highly doubted it.He must have brought Yvonne's pregnancy up to threaten her.“My friend doesn’t need you to care about her.”Kelsey hissed shapely before turning to Yvonne. “Yvonne, why don't you go first? I just need to have a short talk with him.”She was worried about Cooper lashing out and attacking Yvonne, who was pregnant.To be on the safe side, she decided she needed to find out what Cooper had to say.Yvonne regarded Cooper with an agitated look and turned to Kelsey. “I’ll wait for you at the entrance.”She was worried about leaving Kelsey with Cooper.Kelsey nodded curtly. “Alright.”Then, she followed Cooper to a quiet corner.“

As if Kelsey was the one at fault to begin with.She had to constantly shower Cooper with kind gestures just so she could prove that she had not been looking down on him.She would brush aside all the abuse he had inflicted on her. In a twisted way, she came to blame herself for neglecting his feelings.This was Cooper’s way of manipulation and here he was, resorting to the same tactic!Did he think she was still as stupid as she was in the past?“If that’s what you think, then so be it.”Kelsey shrugged and was completely unfazed by his accusations. She could not even be bothered to explain her stance by this point.With that, she mercilessly turned away.She did not care what Cooper thought of her.She had been far too kind to him in the past life, even when he did not deserve it. All it did was allow him to manipulate her to his will.Now that she thought about it, so what if she did admit that she looked down on him?It might even help to prove that she was no pushover.

After hanging up, Kelsey opened one of the packages.There was a pink chiffon dress inside.She carefully took the dress out of the box. Its texture was so delicate that she was immediately obsessed with it.“Wow, it's so pretty.”She was smiling from ear to ear and could not help but be exasperated by the beauty of the dress.Then, she went to the dresser to put it on.The size was just right, it was as if the dress was tailor-made for her.She twirled around in front of the mirror and could not help herself from giggling.Then, she drew closer to the mirror and tied her hair into a bun. After that, she used a curling iron to curl her bangs so they would rest across her forehead. The look added a delicate touch to her appearance.After that, she put on the silver high heels that Tyler had also bought for her.She felt like she had transformed into a princess from a fairy tale.After making sure she looked presentable, she headed downstairs and stepped out of the house.Sha

Kelsey rarely attended such events. Ever since her mother's unfortunate accident, Charlie and Megan had been actively keeping her trapped inside the house.Charlie always insisted on bringing his illegitimate daughter, Josephine, to all the social events the family was invited to.Therefore, it was not surprising that most people at the venue did not recognize her.Keysey frowned and stopped short when she heard all the nasty remarks they made about her.Tyler gently palmed his hand around hers. She could feel his warmth surging into her palms and feel protected in his powerful presence.With him by her side, she felt like she could take on the world.She looked up and smiled tenderly at him.“Wait!”She was about to keep walking when Tyler suddenly stopped her.She was confused. “What's wrong?”“Your hair is messy.”He said with a doting look, then he proceeded to smooth out her hair with the tips of his fingers and fixed her look in no time at all. Upon noting the gestu

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
