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
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 309
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

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
