Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 298
While the girls were chatting, Cooper suddenly appeared at the entrance of the ward.“Kelsey!”He cried out.Kelsey frowned in disgust the moment she heard the familiar voice.“Why are you here?”“I heard you sprained your ankle from the fall so I thought I should visit.” Cooper fixed a look on her with a subtle grimace.Then, he strode toward Kelsey.Before he could even get closer, Yvonne stepped up in front of him to cut off his approach.“Kelsey doesn’t want to see you!”Cooper brushed off Yvonne and cast another profound look on Kelsey. “Kels, I bought you your favorite apple pie.”He said as he handed a box filled with pastry over.Kelsey did not take the gift.Instead, she shot a severe look at him. “No thanks, I don’t like apple pies anymore.”It was her favorite pastry in her previous life. Once Cooper found out about it, he made an effort to buy it for her regularly.She was very touched by the gesture.It was a sign of Cooper's devotion toward her.It was onl

Kelsey scrutinized Cooper’s expression. Surprisingly, it did not seem like he was lying.Either Cooper and Cerys were truly not well acquainted with each other or he had gotten better at lying. Even though Kelsey had lived two lives, she still had trouble reading the man.She narrowed her eyes and asked again, “Not close to her? Could you explain to me why Cerys' final design for Runway Revolution is the same as mine?”Something stirred in Cooper’s eyes again. His expression grew inscrutable.“Kel, are you suspecting me?” he asked without pleasure.“Don’t you deserve to be suspected?” Kelsey asked with a sharp sneer.After all, Cooper had an ongoing affair with his brother’s wife, Rhea.There was always the possibility that he had something going on with his brother’s mistress, Cerys as well.What other explanation was there for Cerys somehow managing to plagiarize her draft?A dark look flashed across Cooper's eyes. He suddenly seemed to have recalled something.Kelsey glare

Several days later, Kelsey was discharged from the hospital and returned to Tyler's home to recover.Tyler specifically hired a nurse named Anna to look after Kelsey.“Ms. Kelsey, does this help?”Anna carefully pressed a towel soaked with cold water over Kelsey’s sprained ankle and raised it at an angle.“I’m feeling much better. Thank you, Anna.” Kelsey thanked her with a sincere smile.Anna was temporarily relegated from her usual post at the hospital to stay at Tyler’s place and attend to Kelsey.She was in her fifties and was a hard worker.However, she was also the type who was prone to gossip.After Tyler had hired her, he happened to have a business trip scheduled and had been away for several days.She noted how young Kelsey was and was puzzled by the strange arrangement. Why was a young girl living all alone in such a large house? Was she perhaps a rich man’s mistress?Although she did not have a very favorable impression of women who were mistresses, she began to g

Tyler immediately set aside his briefcase and went toward Kelsey.“How are you? Are you feeling better?” Tyler squatted and gently took her delicate hands into his while asking in a tender voice.“I’m feeling much better, it doesn't hurt anymore.” Kelsey assured him with a smile.Tyler took over the massaging duty and suddenly expressed apologetically, “I’m sorry I’ve been away for a few days due to work.”Kelsey smiled and assured him. “It’s fine, really. Work is important and besides, I have Anna taking care of me so you don’t have to worry at all.”Upon hearing her mention Anna, Tyler remembered the older lady who greeted him at the door just now.He turned around and cast a glance at Anna.Anna had just shut the front door and still seemed relatively confused by the situation.Just now, she was sure she heard Kelsey addressing Tyler as ‘honey’. She finally joined the dots. It turned out that she had misunderstood the situation all along.The young lady was not a mistress

Kelsey drew her hand away from Tyler and said, “It’s fine, let me try walking by myself.”Tyler hesitated for a moment before obliging with a brief nod. “Alright, I’m right behind you so just tell me if you need my help.”With that, he carefully released his firm grip around Kelsey’s hand.Kelsey tried to get a firm hold of her center of gravity and after ensuring that she could remain balanced, she tried to step forward.She was exceedingly cautious with the first step she took.Although her injured ankle was giving her some trouble, she finally managed to take a step forward.“How is it? Are you okay?” Tyler trailed closely behind her and seemed gentler than ever. “Yeah.” Kelsey nodded briefly before pressing onward.Tyler continued to trail behind her, ready to protect her at any moment. After Kelsey managed a few steps, her anxiousness slowly subsided.She grew bolder and her steps became more confident. “I have sent one of my men to retrieve the surveillance footag

Not only was Kelsey not repulsed by his scent, but she even welcomed it. She adored it.She missed his scent.Tyler had not shaved for a few days. She could feel the harsh texture of his short stubble brushing against her tender skin.She tried to push against his shoulder but he would not budge.Her breath was taken away by him, her body was also…Soon, her body temperature began to surge sky-high.Her heartbeat accelerated.It took a long time before Tyler reluctantly drew away.He gently caressed her hair with affection in his eyes. “I missed you.”Kelsey seemed to do a double take, her blush deepened.“You haven't answered my question yet,” Tyler leaned over closer and whispered in her ears.Kelsey opened her mouth and made to speak, her lashes shook.Tyler lowered himself and gently nibbled on her earlobe. “Are you not going to answer? Do you want me to kiss you again?”Kelsey drew a sharp breath before crying out, “I miss you too!”Suddenly, it was as if two candles

“You wanted to sleep, didn't you? I'll sleep with you!”Tyler rested his chin against the top of Kelsey’s head and gently pecked a kiss on her hair.Kelsey squirmed instinctively.“Give me some space, I can’t breathe.”She could not handle the intention behind his approach.“Alright!” Tyler surprisingly obliged and loosened his grip ever so slightly.Kelsey was just about to heave a sigh of relief when she felt his hand reaching underneath her clothes.In an instant, an intent look glowed inside Tyler's eyes.“Kels, I have been missing you every day during my business trip,” he declared while puffing hot wafts of air into Kelsey’s ear.Her ears are the most sensitive part of her body.Her cheeks flushed with red in an instant, she felt like she was going to melt.“Stop it…” She protested weakly.Tyler's Adam's apple bobbed up and down. “Are you shy?”Kelsey pouted and grumbled, “What if Anna hears us? She’s downstairs!”They were not the only ones in the house.“What are

“My dear daughter, how have you been lately?”Kelsey had to do a double take.It felt like the last time Charlie addressed her so affectionately was eons ago.Ever since her mother's car accident, Charlie had brought his mistress and her daughter into the house to replace Kelsey’s mother. He had been completely neglectful, sometimes even cruel toward Kelsey.By this point, there was no way to redeem her relationship with her father anymore.Now, Charlie was taking the time to call her. His entire attitude and tone was a complete 180 shift from the past. It threw Kelsey for a loop and made her doubt her hearing.She had to check the phone number several times to make sure that the person calling was truly her father, not someone else.“Do you need something?” she asked hesitantly.She had enough sense to realize that even if Charlie had kicked Megan out of the house and decided to send Josephine abroad to study, it did not necessarily mean that their relationship would be restor

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
