Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 40
Kelsey and Tyler sat facing each other in the dining room. Tyler kept his head down while eating and never stole even a glance at her.Kelsey could not help but feel defeated. Was he unhappy with her wearing a dress? Perhaps he would prefer a more casual, frilly dress?“Tyler, you don’t like me wearing this dress, do you?” Kelsey could not help but ask.“I don’t mind it,” Tyler answered indifferently.Kelsey doubted he was telling the truth. If that was the case, why would he not look at her?Unbeknownst to her, Tyler did not look at her because she looked far too sexy.After breakfast, Tyler finally turned up to look at her and announced, “I’m taking you home!”Kelsey's heart sank again. He was taking her home? She was hoping to stay with him for a few more days.“Can I please stay?” She tried to plead.The look in Tyler's eyes deepened slightly, but he reminded her expressionlessly, “You have stayed here for two days.”Kelsey’s expression stiffened. She was planning to st

However, the engagement had been decided a long time ago by Tyler’s grandparents.She was not expecting things to turn out like this after Tyler's grandmother was suddenly hospitalized. His uncle immediately stepped in and announced the decision to void the engagement entirely.If she had known about this, she would not have been so bold in assuring her father that the engagement would not be called off.It no longer mattered what she said now because she knew her father would not believe her.Her father never liked her in the first place.Even before this, he never believed most of what she told him.Now that things had turned out like this, he was less likely than ever to believe her.“What does that have to do with you? You’re not even a member of the family. The cancellation of the engagement only concerns the members of the Young and the Lang households, it has nothing to do with you so don’t stick your nose where it doesn’t belong!” Kelsey shot a glare at Megan and retorte

Josephine's expression immediately warped upon hearing this. She turned to Kelsey in disbelief.She only intended to pretend to help her.She did not expect Kelsey to expect her to be serious and to be punished in her place.Why would she ever do that for Kelsey?“Kelsey, you're picking on your sister again!” Megan cried out sharply.There was no way she could bear to see her precious daughter being punished for Kelsey.With that, she immediately dropped the act and told off Kelsey right there.Kelsey flashed a grin filled with mockery. “If you didn’t want to do it, you could have just said so. Why did you have to put up an act in front of Dad?”Just like that, she tore the mask right off the pair without mercy.Megan’s and Josephine's expressions were frozen with shock. They hardly knew what to say.If they were to claim that they were not acting and were serious about protecting Kelsey, she would have gladly allowed Josephine to be beaten in her place.If they had gone the

Kelsey quickly realized that it was Megan who tripped her.From the corner of her eye, Megan spotted Charlie who was about to catch up. With that, she immediately pretended to help Kelsey up.Kelsey tossed her hand away in disgust. “Go away, don't touch me!”Even though she had only briskly shaken her off, Megan was ‘flung away’ from the force and ‘just so happened’ to hit her head against a table.“Mom!”Josephine cried out dramatically and rushed to her.She called out several times, but Megan did not respond.It appeared that she had been knocked unconscious.Josephine was distraught.Charlie rushed to Megan's side and held her in his arms tenderly. “Maggie?”When Megan heard her name called, she weakly opened her eyes.The first thing she said upon drawing her eyes open was, “Don't blame Kelsey…”It might sound like she was trying to defend Kelsey, but the purpose was to insinuate that it was Kelsey who hurt her.Kelsey was the reason she suddenly bumped into the edge

Charlie was seconds away from erupting in anger but managed to forcefully suppress it just in time.Within seconds, he switched to a pandering appearance. “Oh, if it isn’t you, Tyler.”Kelsey was admittedly impressed by how quickly her father could change his behavior.He looked like he was ready to brawl with Tyler but immediately upon recognizing him, he curbed his attitude.Tyler ignored Charlie and handed a phone to Kelsey. “You dropped this.”Kelsey inspected the phone and realized that it was her phone.While she was inside Tyler’s car just now, she had been absentmindedly scrolling her phone while her mind was occupied.After the car stopped, she stepped out of the car without thinking and ended up leaving her phone in his car.Did he show up just to return her phone?In a strange twist, he ended up accidentally bailing her out of a difficult situation!“Are you okay?” Tyler looked at her and expressed concern.Kelsey shook her head and expressed gratefully, “I’m fine

After all, the fact that Tyler showed up today suggested that he still cared about Kelsey.It would be best if the engagement could continue as originally planned!Kelsey also eyed Tyler nervously.Her father remarked that they were a pair of childhood sweethearts and had feelings for each other. However, the truth was slightly different.It was certainly true that they were a pair of childhood sweethearts. However, she had rejected him for many years and their mutual interest was only a recent development.For what it was worth, she genuinely wanted to be with Tyler now.She hoped her father could somehow convince the Langs to withdraw the decision to cancel the engagement and give her another chance.Unexpectedly, Tyler stated solemnly, “It was my uncle who made the call to cancel the engagement. The press conference has already been held…”Kelsey's heart dropped.Could this mean that he insisted on canceling the engagement as well?He may insist that it was his uncle's ide

Charlie immediately glared at Kelsey. “What did you say?”His glares were full of warnings. Now that Tyler had finally agreed to provide compensation, he would never let her hear the end of it if she messed it up!Kelsey ignored Charlie and repeated her stance. “I did it willingly because I have feelings for you, that’s why I…”Charlie saw red in an instant. “You shut your mouth!”His voice was trembling.Upon crying out, he angled his palm in the air, preparing to slap Kelsey across her face.However, Tyler intervened in time and seized his wrist firmly.Charlie yowled in pain. Upon meeting the deep and menacing look in Tyler’s eyes, he became so intimidated that he could not even speak.“It was my fault for breaking off the engagement. If you’re going to blame someone, blame it on me but don’t torment Kels!”He wore a tense expression while he spoke. His voice was filled with bass and carried an oppressing aura.Charlie hissed between his teeth. “I wouldn’t dare, Mr. Lang

Kelsey chuckled icily in response. “I’m sorry, ma’am, but you do realize that my mother is still alive, don't you? I don’t think you are a valid member of our family yet. Are you sure it’s right for you to take somebody else’s daughter as your own? If you mean to apologize, you should go to the hospital and apologize to my mother instead!”She had effectively disgraced Megan.Megan was so stunned that she could hardly utter a word.Kelsey was infuriated. How dare a mistress pretend to ask for her forgiveness and spout such nonsense about accepting her as a daughter?It was clear as day that the wretched woman had been coveting her mother’s position for a long time. Don’t even think about it!If she was truly apologetic, she should take her bastard daughter with her and remove themselves from the Young household immediately.Kelsey vowed to herself that it was the only form of apology she would expect.“Kelsey!” Charlie frowned in disapproval.He was upset at Kelsey being so dis

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

Many patrons turned their heads to Yvonne and Charles’ table. The incident sparked a lot of chatter. Kelsey rushed over and explained to Agatha. “You’re mistaken. Yvonne and I are grabbing lunch after a day of shopping. Charles and Yvonne don’t know each other.” Agatha did not expect to see Kelsey there. However, she could not take back what she had said. Besides, Yvonne and Adam were getting a divorce. If Agatha could nail infidelity on Yvonne, Adam would get off the divorce with more. “Oh, your best friend can’t save you out of this, Yvonne. Don’t try to hide the fact that you’re with another man now.” Agatha was determined to accuse Yvonne. Charles was not having it. “Ma’am…” he said disgruntledly in an attempt to clear the air. “Shut up!” Agatha snapped and criticized him too. “Why are you flirting with a married woman? I get a bad vibe from you.” Charles was speechless. He was a gentleman. There was no way he would be caught dead hitting on a married woman.

Sensing Yvonne’s blues, Kelsey wanted her to eat well and divert her attention elsewhere. Yvonne ordered a variety. In truth, she had no appetite. Kelsey added a few more dishes.Not satisfied with the order, Charles told the server to bring up all the chef’s recommendations. “Won’t we have too much food, Charles?” Kelsey said. Charles smiled without a care. “It’s okay. You can’t have too much food.” While the food was being prepared, Kelsey asked, “What’s the favor you need?” “Oh, yeah. Tyler said that you have established an office with Rosette,” Charles uttered. “Yes.” Kelsey nodded. “Is there anything I can do to help?” Charles asked earnestly. Kelsey understood that Charles had feelings for Rosette. “Nothing as of yet,” she responded with a raised brow. Charles was a little late as Cleo had helped them a lot in setting up the business. “Let me know if you ever need any help,” Charles said. Kelsey smiled with intrigue. “Are you pursuing Rosette, Charles?
