Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 50
The reason Zara came was to see Tyler before meeting their parents. She was sure it would not take long before they finalized the terms of their engagement.Then, Tyler would become her husband.Kelsey's expression dropped upon hearing this.“That’s impossible!”She cried out in disbelief.Zara swiped her a look filled with contempt. “What do you mean it’s impossible? I know you Youngs are drowning in debt, you guys shouldn’t even consider yourselves one of the upper-class households anymore! Don’t even dream about marrying into the Langs anymore, they have been planning to tie the knot with my family for some time! We’re going to form a powerful alliance!” Kelsey pursed her lips tightly and clenched her fists on instinct.She had to admit that the Youngs’ fortune had slid off a cliff ever since her mother’s accident that put her into a coma.Since then, her father had been distracted with reconciling with his old lover and had not been attending to the family corporation.
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 51
There was one specific incident when a classmate doing sit-ups with Zara during their physical class casually commented about her odor. After that, the girl was never seen in the school again.It was said that her whole family was driven out of the city.The subject of body odor had always been a taboo for Zara.She was very wary of having people around her mention it.Her wariness doubled now that she was a celebrity. She would not stand for anyone pointing out her flaws.She was shocked to hear Kelsey exposing her in public today.If she could, she would kill Kelsey right then and there.However, she was now a public figure and they were in the lobby of the Lang Group building. There were many bystanders surrounding them.Furthermore, she had curated an ‘angelic’ image around her stardom. She could not risk ruining the public image she had taken so much time and effort to craft.With that, she suppressed her anger and hissed between her teeth. “Just you wait, Kelsey.”Then,
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 52
Kelsey waited for what seemed like ages in the underground parking lot of the building but Tyler was nowhere to be seen.At one point, she got a call from her best friend, Yvonne, who suddenly asked her for a quick meeting.Kelsey could immediately sense something off with Yvonne’s tone. It sounded as if she had just cried.With that, she suggested. “Let's meet at the same bar we went to last time!”With that, she briskly hung up and rushed to the exit of the parking lot.Yvonne had hardly been able to catch a break ever since she married her current husband, Adam.Kelsey wondered if the reason Yvonne had called her crying this time had something to do with her husband finding out about the money Yvonne lent to her last time.Adam was a man who took financial matters very seriously.If he found out about Yvonne borrowing Kelsey two hundred thousand dollars without informing him, there was no telling what he would do.Kelsey decided she would not wait for Tyler. She had to rush

“Wait, it’s you?" Kelsey gasped in shock.She was sure she had called Yvonne for help. Why was it Tyler who answered the call?She swiped a glance at her phone before she finally realized that she had accidentally dialed Tyler's number while she was panicking.Before Yvonne called her, she had been waiting for Tyler in the parking lot.During her wait, she had called him several times but he never picked up.It was a surprise that he picked up the phone so quickly this time.“Who else were you expecting?” Tyler grumbled into the phone.Kelsey had no time to explain by this point seeing as the group of men were about to catch up to her. She cried out, “Help! I need help…”Tyler frowned. “Where are you?”“I’m in the parking lot right outside your office building, call the po….”Before she could even utter ‘police’, her phone was snatched away.She knew that it would take too long for Tyler to come to rescue her.That was why she asked him to call the police for her.What she

Tyler paused and turned around sharply.He saw Kelsey lying on the ground in a disheveled state. She was trembling all over.She looked at him. Her eyes were covered in tears…She must have been frightened by the traumatic experience.In an instant, Tyler felt a sharp throb of pain in his heart as if he had been stabbed.He immediately went toward Kelsey. A soft and gentle glow immediately appeared in his hawk-like gaze.“I’m sorry for coming so late!”He embraced her tightly and whispered an apology in her ears.Upon being pulled into his embrace and feeling the familiar heat of his body, Kelsey felt safe all of a sudden.With that, she slowly stopped trembling.All the while, she clenched onto his shirt tightly.She would not stop murmuring, “Please don’t leave me, please don’t leave me.”Tyler tightened his embrace.“I won't leave, I'll always be with you, alright?” He gently comforted Kelsey.Kelsey pressed her cheek against him and felt his chest moving with every br
Second Chance at Life and Love Chapter 55
In the past, whenever Tyler tried to be intimate with Kelsey, she would react drastically.The last time in the hotel, she cried all night.It was unexpected of her to ask him to sleep with her.What happened tonight must have traumatized her.What else could it be?Tyler stared at Kelsey and considered for a moment. At last, he could not resist the desire for her.With that, he lifted the blanket and burrowed underneath with her.Immediately after that, Kelsey snuggled into him and wrapped her arms around him. It was as if she was trying to be absorbed into his body.Tyler was yet again taken aback by her gesture.He found himself suddenly unnerved by the softness and vulnerability of Kelsey’s body.He could feel his blood accelerating inside his veins.“Do you feel hot?”Upon feeling his surging body temperature, Kelsey could not help but look up from his embrace and stare at him curiously.“Just a little!”Tyler was wary of even looking at her. His voice had become hoa

The next morning, Kelsey was awakened by the warm glow of sunrise.It was rare for her to enjoy a good night’s sleep.She slowly opened her eyes and stared at the beautifully ornamented ceiling above.Was this Tyler's villa?Suddenly, memories of last night swarmed her mind.Last night, a few hooligans ganged up on her at the parking lot outside the Lang Group building. They were going to assault her but Tyler showed up just in time to save her.That was so close!After that, Tyler took her back to his place where she spent the night with him.She recalled that it was the first time Tyler spent the night with her. They had cuddled underneath the blanket all night.However, Tyler was nowhere to be seen by the time she woke up.If not for the depressed mark on the bed as well as the distinctive smell of Tyler still lingering in the air, Kelsey would have thought that what happened last night was all a dream.She had snuggled up all night with Tyler!The thought of it brought

“Whoever was behind this has to be sick in the head!” Yvonne frowned and advised Kelsey. “Kels, you'd better stay with Tyler for now, at least he can keep you safe. We still don’t know if those dangerous men will try again after their plan was foiled the first time.”Kelsey made a face. “I think so too.”Upon reaching this note, she paused briefly before enquiring, “By the way, what happened to you? It sounded like you were crying when you called me last night.”Her original plan last night was to meet Yvonne at the bar to check on how she was doing.Since it was no longer safe for her to leave the house, she could only do it on the phone for the time being.Yvonne sighed exasperatedly upon hearing this. “It’s my mother-in-law, she’s being a real pain again!”Kelsey grew concerned. “Did she leave her hometown to come visit again?”Yvonne's mother-in-law was a notorious troublemaker.Every time she showed up at Adam's place, there was bound to be drama.She would go on a rant a

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?
