Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 410
Cooper’s eyes darkened. “Kelsey, don’t you think you have been harboring some kind of misguided resentment toward me?”The way he looked so innocent when he said it was just like the way Adam looked just now.All men looked the same when they tried to make you feel guilty.Kelsey suppressed her disgust and refused to even spare another glance at him.“No. Quit following me. I need to buy something at the mall.”Cooper suddenly offered, “What do you want to buy? I'll buy it for you!”“No need!” Kelsey sharply turned down the offer.Cooper suddenly stopped in front of her to cut off her path.“I am now part of the senior management of Lyon Group, I can afford it, don’t worry!”He wanted to boast about how financially capable he was now to Kelsey.The one thing that bothered him the most was that he never treated her well when he was still with Kelsey.He never even gave her a proper gift.This was what allowed Tyler to swoop in!In the past, Cooper was the illegitimate basta

Cooper cocked an eyebrow and flashed a rare, smug smile.Then, he announced, “Because I will be the next in line to inherit the Lyon Group.”“In your dreams.”Kelsey shot him down. She hardly believed the claim.How could he be the successor if James was still alive and well?Unless he had devised some scandalous plan to assassinate James soon and replace him as the successor.Now that she thought about it, it was quite likely that Cooper would pull off a stunt like that.“Kels, you can choose to not believe me but it’s only going to be a matter of time before I prove to you that I am just as capable as Tyler!” Cooper vowed while fixing a determined look at Kelsey.Kelsey did not need him to prove anything to her.One way or another, Tyler was her husband. He was one in a million and irreplaceable.No one could ever compare to him, especially not Cooper.“You don't need to prove anything to me, I’m happy as long as Josephine thinks the world of you!” she remarked with a snid

Kelsey was relieved to know that Tyler was going to bid for the project.As long as Tyler was going to place a bid for the acquisition of the urban development project, there was no way Cooper would stand a chance.She was confident that Tyler would succeed in winning the bid.Besides, Cooper was not the heir of the Lyons yet, so he would be able to put up a fight.Tyler hung up when he noticed the way Kelsey was staring blankly at him.He grinned. “Like what you see?”Kelsey was embarrassed and flushed red.She did not realize how long she had been staring at Tyler.She got caught!It was not her fault that he had the finest sculpted feature ever known to men.She wanted to find a hole to bury herself into.Suddenly, she felt Tyler seizing her by her shoulders. He proceeded to lead her to the dining table.There was a mighty feast prepared for her.“You’re too skinny, you have to eat more.”Tyler’s voice was gentle and filled with bass. He attentively brought several pla

Tyler wondered if those two passersby had stolen a peek.He would not allow other men to check out his wife!“Just put it on!”He insisted in a firm, yet gentle tone.He made sure that she snugly put on the coat, then pulled her tightly into his arms.Kelsey looked up at him with a dazed look. “What's wrong?”She sensed something was wrong with him.It seemed like he had grown intensely jealous out of nowhere.What could have prompted such a sharp, unwarranted attitude?She could spot her reflection in Tyler’s pupils. She looked beautiful like a goddess.Without warning, he pinned her against the guardrail by the lake.Then, he lowered himself to her and fervently kissed her on the lips.It was a kiss filled with passion and longing as if he was afraid of losing her.He could not deny that there was nothing else he cared for more than he did for Kelsey.So much that even the thought of other men checking her out was enough to infuriate him.Even though they were already

Kelsey was starting to realize that marrying Tyler came with some problems as well.Her waist hardly felt like her own, her legs were giving out, and she was completely exhausted.She could hardly get out of bed at this point.Tyler was a rather understanding man in all respects other than inside the bedroom.He had always endlessly doted on her.Ever since they got married until now, Tyler had never lost his temper with her and would never be passive-aggressive toward her.He did not possess the negative traits that many men possessed.He was almost the perfect husband.However, everyone had their flaws.His sexual drive was a little too high.He had been having his way with her for the past few days. She could hardly walk straight at this point.In the end, she stayed in bed for nearly the entire day the next day.When she woke up, it was nearly evening.Still, she felt a lingering soreness in her joints and felt very tired.Tyler was like a vampire that had drained eve

This was not the time for Kelsey to be having children.“Ms. Young, what's wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything?” Anna cast a strange look at her. “You don’t want to have children with Mr. Tyler?”Kelsey shook her head immediately to cast off her suspicions. “No, that’s not it! I just thought we should focus on our career since we are still young!”“You do have a point, but you can't push off having a child just because of your career!” Anna kindly advised her. “You have to consider that we women have a very specific window for childbirth. It will be too late once you miss it.”Anna’s advice came from a good place. Kelsey knew that Anna only wanted what was best for her.“I understand, we will start planning for a baby once the timing is ripe.”Upon reaching this note, her stomach began to growl.Anna expressed exasperatedly, “You must be hungry! Hurry up and eat something quickly! You’re never going to get pregnant if you keep starving yourself. You have to take care of your b

“Miss, you should avoid long-term use of birth control pills, they come with side effects!”One of the cashiers who rang up Kelsey advised her politely.“Huh?”It took a moment for Kelsey to process what she meant.The cashier gestured at a pack of condoms on the shelf and suggested, “Why don't you get a box of this for your boyfriend? It’s better than using the pills.”Kelsey hesitated.Tyler had always preferred to do it without. She doubted if he would even consider using them at all.At the same time, she considered the side effects that the cashier talked about.She was concerned about her health being affected by long-term use.“Alright, I’ll take a box!” She made her choice.With that, the cashier put the birth control pills along with the pack of condoms into a bag for her.Kelsey took the bag and proceeded to leave the pharmacy.On her way home, she received a call from her Yvonne.“Kels, are you okay?”Her voice was anxious and filled with concern.Kelsey was t
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 417
Kelsey could sense the deep regret in Yvonne’s voice.She had given up on her parents for a man who ended up making her miserable.She had been so naїve and stupid!When Kelsey looked at Yvonne, she saw a splitting image of her past self.This must be why they were best friends.Things were different now because she had witnessed Cooper's true colors. She knew to cut her losses in time and get away from him.She was certain Yvonne could do the same.She hugged Yvonne tightly. “It's okay, you are still young! You have more than enough time to make up with your parents and get away from that douchebag!”Yvonne blew her nose, then suddenly asked, “By the way, you haven't told me why Adam tried to attack you the other day. What happened?”“Come on, let me walk you to the car first.” Kelsey took her luggage and tried to change the subject.She did not want to pile on to her burden.After they got in the car, Yvonne continued pressing for an answer.The entire time, Kelsey made u

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

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
