Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 245
After breakfast, they went upstairs to pack up.Tyler's grandmother had already been discharged from the hospital and was now living in the family house in the neighboring city.They were going to take the Langs’ private plane to visit her.Kelsey had already changed into a large windbreaker, dyed an elegant lavender, and paired it with an expensive tailored shirt along with a white skirt. Finally, she finished the look with a pair of black leather boots.It was a youthful look that gave off a vibrant impression.She was just about to turn back into the dresser to look for a matching bag to pair with her outfit when her phone on the bedside table rang.“Honey, bring the phone inside for me please!”She called out for Tyler who was outside the dresser.Tyler had changed into an expensive piece of suit and was sitting on the couch in the bedroom waiting for Kelsey to finish dressing up. Upon hearing the phone ring, he immediately located it on the bedside table.He picked it up

“It’s your sister Josephine. She’s gone missing!”Charlie's face was wrought with anxiety. He had been worried sick.Meanwhile, his lover and mistress Megan was crying inside his arms and seemed completely distraught too.“Charlie, you have to find Josephine as soon as you can! She is a girl, who knows what kind of trouble she’s got into?”Megan was worried sick about Josephine and pleaded with Charlie with tears in her eyes.Charlie tenderly wiped the tears from her cheeks. His heart ached for her while he consoled her gently, “Don't worry, I have sent my men to look for her. One way or another, we will find our daughter!”Kelsey could not help but roll her eyes upon observing the scene.If she had known that the so-called situation that unraveled back home concerned the disappearance of Josephine, she would never have bothered to rush back home at all.Her original plan was to accompany Tyler to visit his grandmother back at their ancestral family home.Certainly, she did no

It seemed like Charlie had never considered that Kelsey and her mother were his legitimate wife and daughter.He had never considered how much he would hurt their feelings by having a mistress and even having a daughter born out of wedlock.After Kelsey’s mother got into the accident, not only had Charlie completely forgone the treatment, but he even seized the chance to take his mistress and illegitimate daughter under his roof. When they usurped Kelsey’s position, all he did was feign obliviousness and allow it to happen. He was as cruel as they came.Why was it that her father never took her side and chose to see her as the enemy?Had he never felt any kind of guilt toward her and her mother?“Kelsey, tell me the truth! Did you have something to do with Josephine's disappearance?”Sure enough, Charlie began to harbor suspicions toward Kelsey after listening to Megan’s ranting.He immediately turned around and accused Kelsey sharply.“No!” Kelsey denied it without hesitation.
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 248
Upon noting Charlie’s hesitation, Megan immediately began to dial up her antics.“Kelsey, your father and I are very happy that you managed to marry Mr. Lang. Still, do you think it is fair for you to pick on us just because you managed to marry into a powerful family?”That other night when Charlie found out about Kelsey marrying Tyler, his entire demeanor took on a drastic transformation.Upon finding out about their marriage, he no longer tried to persecute the related parties for kicking Josephine out of the party.Megan was not going to let Kelsey interfere with her plans just because Kelsey managed to siphon power from the Langs.She had to come up with something to turn Kelsey’s advantage against her. Something had to be done to incite Charlie.Sure enough, Charlie seemed to have ‘snapped to his senses’ upon hearing Megan’s pointed remarks.It gave him a boost of confidence to confront Kelsey.“She’s right, don’t you start looking down on your father of all people just b

Kelsey asked suspiciously, “When did Josephine disappear?”Megan declared sharply, “Last night after she got kicked out of the party thanks to your husband’s men, she was never seen again. We couldn't contact her through her phone and tried looking for her all night but still couldn't find her. She just went missing like that!”Kelsey asked with a clear glow in her eyes, “If she disappeared last night, that means it’s already been half a day since she was last seen. If she was kidnapped, don’t you think that the kidnappers would have called to ask for a ransom by this point?”“This…” Megan darted her eyes around rapidly while thinking of a response. “Maybe they wanted to wait a little later before contacting us!”Kelsey shot her an icy look. “What if she was not kidnapped at all? Maybe she just got lost somehow or got into an accident. Either way, the sooner we call the police, the sooner we can find her and ensure her safety, don’t you think so?”“But…” Megan's expression stiffen
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 250
The look in Kelsey's eyes dimmed faintly, then she retorted, “It sounds more like you’re the one who looks down on my father and the Youngs!”Megan was not expecting to be exposed so quickly. She started to falter from guilt and cried out defensively, “What did you say?”She continued to wear the same aggrieved expression as if Kelsey was the one who had wronged her.Kelsey composed herself and stated with fixed composure, “He is my father, we share the same blood. My husband wouldn’t even marry me if he looked down on my father, don’t you think so?”Charlie’s expression seemed to have softened slightly upon hearing the point she raised.Kelsey then sharply changed the subject and turned it against Megan. “But it’s different in your case, Aunt Megan. You are younger than my father and you’re pretty, God knows if you have been secretly disdaining my dad for being too old and not deserving someone like you. Who knows if you have been messing around with some younger, more good-looki
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 251
Megan had been feeling very upset since Josephine was kicked out of the party by Tyler's men last night.She never imagined that someone like Kelsey would somehow luck out and marry someone wealthy like Tyler.The thought that Kelsey had borrowed Tyler’s influence to kick Josephine out of the party greatly infuriated Megan. She decided she would not stand for it!What was especially insulting was the fact that Charlie's attitude toward Kelsey had shifted significantly ever since he found out that Tyler was her husband.It seemed like he was not even intending to persecute the incident of Josephine being unfairly kicked out of the party.To rub it in, he even praised Kelsey for finding a good marriage match and that she had brought pride and blessings to the family line.All of this was simply unacceptable!If Charlie started to repair his broken relationship with Kelsey because she managed to marry into a wealthy family, things would quickly go south for Megan and Josephine. Her

“I agree that Kelsey needs to be disciplined, but you have to understand that it was my mother and Hailey who raised her as a child. I was not very involved and that’s why we are not very close. Even if I were to try to discipline her, she wouldn’t listen to me,” Charlie expressed helplessly.At the same time, he did feel some sense of guilt toward Kelsey.He had neglected to show much fatherly affection toward her when she was a child.Therefore, it was only natural that she would be so stubborn and refuse to listen to him.Upon hearing Charlie lamenting about his mistakes and feeling a sense of guilt toward his daughter, Megan took it as a bad sign.The main purpose of her instigating Charlie was so that she could drive further conflict between the father and daughter.It was not to have him reflect on his negligence in raising Kelsey over the years.If Charlie were to continue to reflect in this direction, the chances of him helping Megan and Josephine get justice would becom

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

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
