Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 305
“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

Kelsey frowned. “My dad just called.”Tyler narrowed his eyes and gently took her cold hands into his. “Did you get into another fight with him?”He was aware that Kelsey did not have a good relationship with her father and that they often quarreled.Charlie seemed to have never cared about Kelsey’s feelings.Kelsey grumbled, “Don’t bring up his name!”Tyler could tell she was not interested in prolonging the discussion and wisely let it drop.“Are you hungry? Let's go downstairs for dinner,” he gently stroked her hair and whispered in a tender voice.Kelsey nodded silently.Tyler carried her in his arms and took her to the dining table downstairs....Tyler and several senior executives in his company were just walking out of the private elevator when they bumped into Charlie. He was in the lobby making a fuss about wanting to meet Tyler.“Let me go, do you know who I am? I am your president’s father-in-law!” he bellowed angrily.The security guards were skeptical of his c

What sort of relationship did the old man have with their boss?Why would the boss tolerate his nonsense at all?After Tyler took Charlie to his office, he instructed his secretary to make a cup of coffee with the highest-grade coffee beans.“Uncle, did you need something from me?” he asked politely.As soon as Charlie entered the office, the luxurious and expensive-looking decoration was the first thing that caught his eye.The Langs were certainly a wealthy household. Tyler's office was much more spacious and luxuriously decorated than his.Although Charlie was admittedly not fond of Kelsey, he highly approved of the husband she ended up finding.Otherwise, he would not have sent Megan and Josephine packing.After discovering Megan cheating on him, he saw it as the perfect opportunity to drive Megan and Josephine out of the picture.With that, he could focus on taking advantage of his son-in-law."Uncle?” Tyler called out again when he noted the way Charlie was silent.C

Tyler frowned. “Do you only see Kelsey as a sort of bartering piece to be exchanged for money?”He was not a fool. He understood what Charlie was trying to insinuate.To put it bluntly, Charlie wanted money.For this part, Tyler had plenty of money to offer Charlie.However, he was not pleased with Charlie’s mindset that he was entitled to be paid just because he had wedded Kelsey. Kelsey was not an item put on the market.As far as he was concerned, Kelsey was priceless.She was not some sort of object he could purchase with money.“You married my daughter, the daughter I had a part in giving birth to and raised for so many years. Shouldn’t I as a father get something in return?” Charlie immediately dialed up his aggression because he was worried Tyler was going to shirk away from his obligation.He knew that rich people tend to be more tight-fisted with their money.This entire time, he was sure that he could get a big haul out of Kelsey marrying Tyler.To his surprise, Tyl

Although Tyler was the son of a rich family, he should obey Charlie because he was his father-in-law.A deep and dark look appeared in Tyler’s eyes. “I will give you five hundred million dollars if Kelsey forgives you. Once you fix your relationship with her, I won’t just give you the money. I'll give you a couple more villas that a proper father-in-law deserves.”“You…” Charlie was choked up with anger and his eyes gradually widened as well. It took him a long time to put his words together.He knew he had not been a good father to Kelsey. Regardless, he deemed that it was not enough to justify Tyler not fulfilling his duties as a son-in-law.Fortunately, he came prepared.“You should take a look at this first before deciding if you’re going to give me the money!”He glowered before grabbing a stack of documents from his bag and tossing it in front of Tyler.“What is this?” A trace of suspicion flashed across Tyler’s eyes.Charlie smiled smugly. “You'll know once you open it!”

Tyler strode inside.The bedroom was dark, all the lights were turned off.The faint moonlight came in from the window.He immediately noticed the slender figure lying against the windowsill.“Kels?” Tyler called out softly.However, Kelsey was already asleep and did not respond.Tyler drew closer until he was right next to her, then he called softly, “Kelsey?”Kelsey’s eyelashes flickered briefly, then slowly opened her eyes.“You're back?”She was slightly startled by Tyler’s sudden appearance. Then she smiled faintly at him.Tyler bent over and took her into his arms.“It's a cold night, you shouldn’t be sleeping right next to the window.”A trace of concern flashed across his eyes while he gently settled her onto the bed in the living room.Kelsey fixed a look on him, the hazel in her eye shone. “I was waiting for you.”Tyler felt warm and fuzzy inside.“I’m sorry, I was late,” he whispered a sincere apology.“Why didn't you answer my call?” Kelsey asked.Tyler's e

Kelsey met Tyler’s gaze. “What did my dad say to you?”Instead of getting into her own head and making assumptions, she was better off asking him outright. Tyler’s eyes were unreadable. “Just stay out of this. I’ll sort it out.” Kelsey smirked. “Are you? How are you going to sort it out? You gave him money, right?” It was clear that Charlie went to Tyler for money. That was the reason why Kelsey refused to let Charlie meet Tyler despite the multiple hints. She knew Charlie too well. Charlie would turn a blind eye to his daughter, Kelsey’s needs, big or small.Yet, the moment he saw an opportunity to exploit her, he would take it. Tyler pursed his lips without a word. Kelsey asked anxiously, “How much did he ask you for?” Tyler remained quiet. “Say something!” Driven by panic, Kelsey sneered. “How much am I worth to you?” Tyler narrowed his eyes on her. “Kels…”All those pent-up emotions in Kelsey finally came to a head after a night of brewing. “He’s not ma

Kelsey’s chest tightened as emotions weighed heavily on her. Tyler might be able to tolerate the incident a couple of times, but what if it became a recurring pattern?He might end up despising Kelsey too. Now that she had a new lease on life, the only thing Kelsey ever wanted was to spend the rest of her life with Tyler. The question of her worthiness now stood between them. Tyler’s eyes were unreadable. “I have never meant to insult you, Kels.” Her strong reaction took Tyler by surprise. Kelsey looked at him through the tears in her eyes. “I know that my upbringing makes me a less suitable wife to you, but I’ve been working on myself. Today, I realized that certain things are out of my hands. I can’t undo my past.” The Langs were a prestigious family while the Youngs were reduced to an upper-middle class at the hands of Charlie. Kelsey married beyond her social class. She thought that she could break free from her family and be good enough for him through her own

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
