Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 256
Ned wanted to deny his actions to Angeline, but he could not make a sound. He wanted to hug her as she stood alone by the pool, soaking wet, but he could not reach her no matter how hard he tried.He watched her stand with her back straight as she faced all her friends and insisted on reviving his memories. When everyone had dispersed and abandoned her, she had hidden herself in the storeroom under the stairs and sobbed as she hugged her knees into her body. He saw himself deliberately kissing Ingrid in front of Angeline and intentionally getting drunk when taking Ingrid to the house that he had prepared for Angeline. However, he and Ingrid hadn't done anything in that master bedroom.Ned saw Angeline sit in the living room, her hands trembling as she held a wine glass. He watched as she gulped down sleeping pills with the wine.When Angeline had woken up in the hospital, he had contemptuously said that she should have slit her wrists if she wanted to die faster so that he and Ing

As he spoke, Gregory thought of Trevor's instruction from last night. He quickly pulled out his phone and called Trevor. "Mr. Marshall, Ned's woken up!"Ned mulled over the word "boyfriend" that Gregory mentioned.He swallowed, and his eyes were bloodshot.He wondered if Angeline's boyfriend Gregory described was the father of her children.Ned was ultimately the one who had sent her to someone else's bed.He had never even touched Angeline all those years because of the trauma that she had toward intimacy. Still, he had personally drugged her and delivered her into another man's bed.Ned clenched his teeth, cast off the blankets, and ran outside. Gregory was still on the phone when Ned knocked him over. He turned back to see Ned rush out. He immediately hung up the call and began chasing after him. "Ned!"Gregory caught up to him at the hospital entrance and grabbed him. "What are you doing? The doctor forbade you to leave!"Ned tried to push Gregory's hand aside, but

"Yes, it's been treated!" Gregory said to Angeline over the phone.He glanced at Ned. "Ned stayed in the hospital overnight so that they could keep him under observation. He will probably be discharged if his follow-up results are okay today.""Will you delay your return to Cloudsville?" Gregory had intentionally mentioned Ned, but Angeline clearly had no interest in the subject."Yes, I'll be returning the day after tomorrow. There are so many things to do in the lab. I can't leave it all to Reese.""Alright! If you need anything, give me a call. I'm busy, so I'll talk to you next time."When Ned heard that Angeline was about to hang up, he sat up straight. His mouth opened as if to say something. He looked at Gregory."Alright. Bye!" Gregory avoided Ned's gaze as he hung up. He frowned and said, "Look, Angeline simply doesn't want to hear about you. Forget it, Ned! You have a fiancée now. What would be the point of bothering Angeline again?"Trevor stood in the doorway

Ingrid's statement was the truth. She had already begun to imitate Angeline before she even faced Ned.That was because she deeply envied the legendary love between Angeline and Ned. She felt she could experience the same love if she could be like Angeline.At Oceanford High School, she wasn't the only one who had thought that way. Almost all the girls in the years below Angeline shared the same thought.After Angeline and Ned left for Oceanford University, it became a trend for students at Oceanford High School to imitate them.Although the boys did not have the same family background as Ned did, they tried their best to emulate Ned's deep feelings toward his girlfriend and his devil-may-care swagger.The girls did not have Angeline's brains, so they tried to mirror how calm and unruffled she was.Ingrid's tears fell down her cheeks like strings of broken pearls.She had always been terrified that Ned would choose Angeline if he recovered his memories one day, and in her heart,

Ingrid sobbed as she pounded on Ned's chest.Ned sat there without moving and watched as Ingrid fell to her knees, drained of all strength. His eyes were red. "Ned!" Ingrid had finished crying. She suddenly pulled herself together and grabbed his hand. "Let's give each other another chance! We'll set a time limit to be a buffer period for us. Let's give ourselves two months so that we can end on a good note. "I won't bother you if you're still firm on your decision after two months and want to cancel our wedding. But you've got to work with me for the next two months!"Ned remained silent, so she said, "When Angie woke up and asked you to work with her, you agreed. Ned… I'm not asking for much. It's just two months—not two years. You owe me this!"Ned didn't think two months or two years made much difference.As his memories gradually returned, he only felt his love for Angeline growing.The more he recalled about the past, the more he found himself unable to let go of Ang

Marion's comments were on the nose.Angeline sat up subconsciously as Marion correctly analyzed her. "Yeah…" Angeline agreed."Then, let me ask you another thing," Marion said. "Was he genuinely nice to you? Before this, was he always spending time with you?" Angeline remembered how wild and dominative Sean was every time they slept together. His kisses were always passionate, as if trying to swallow her whole. Angeline blushed and replied, "I-I guess so." "I knew it!" Marion said firmly. "Tell you what, Angie. He is playing hard to get. He's unsure about your feelings toward him, so he's slowly trying to invade your life. "When you're finally used to his company, he'll leave you and let you experience life without him. So you'll realize how great a person he is and discover that you have feelings for him by yourself."That guy… He sure is something!" Marion was impressed by Sean. "Huh?" Angeline held the glass in her hands tightly. "Is that so? Then why do I f

Angeline nodded, her cheeks blushing. "Alright, Marion. I know what to do. You should go home and rest now." "Call me if you need any relationship advice," Marion offered. "Although my only experience is with Reese, I'm an expert in reasoning!" "Okay, Marion. Goodnight!" Angeline hung up the phone and looked out the window. It was already nighttime in Krontos, the right time for bright lights to illuminate the city. Angeline checked her phone, and as Marion said, Sean hadn't reached out to her—not even a call or a message. She wondered if he was playing hard to get and wasn't simply bored of her.Angeline felt that she had to distract herself from Sean. After she had changed, she opened the door and saw Lenny standing outside. "Have you had your dinner?" Angeline asked. "No, I haven't." Lenny shook his head in confusion. "Come. Let's go get something!" Angeline offered. Lenny quickly walked to the elevator and pressed the button before asking, "Where are you

"Hey, I'm not made of glass. A little splash won't hurt me," Angeline said before grabbing Lenny's arm to turn him around to examine his back. "You don't have to worry about me this much."Ned watched through the car window as Angeline carefully checked on Lenny while grabbing his arm. He clenched the cigarette and reached to open the car door. However, he stopped before pulling the handle. Considering the evil things Ned had done to Angeline, how could he have the nerve to see her? Angeline was a kind person. Yet, despite Ned taking a blow for Angeline, she didn't check up on him. It demonstrated the depth of her hate for him.Moreover, Ned had promised Ingrid he wouldn't see Angeline for two months. Although he felt the urge to chop Lenny's arm off, he couldn't face Angeline now. Ned had made several mistakes. If he wanted to win Angeline back, at the very least, he had to break off his engagement with Ingrid. Then he could stand before Angeline as a clean, single man. If he pu

As soon as the words were out of Angeline's mouth, the sound of lounge slippers padding across the floor rang out. Yasmine ignored the shock on Ned's face and turned to reach for Sean. "Hold me, Daddy!"Sean smiled and lifted her into his arms. Then, he stood beside Angeline and looked at Ned imperiously. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Fletcher. I'm Shane Kingston. Thank you for pushing Angie away in the past—it led to my relationship with her."Ned knew precisely who "Shane" was. Just a few days ago, he'd seen the news about Melissa's press conference explaining her relationship with "Shane".His mind buzzed. He knew Sean and Shane looked similar enough for Dexter's men to have gotten the wrong person. However, he hadn't expected "Shane" to have anything to do with Angeline!"You… Are you the kids' father?" Ned's voice was incredibly shaky."Yes, and again, thank you for that!" Sean smiled. "We've never told anyone about this because I didn't want to endanger Angie and the kids.

Sean didn't give Angeline the chance to finish. "You were right to bring this up to me!"He wrapped his arms around her from behind and continued, "You and the kids will always be my main priority. I know I said I want Melissa to remain safe and happy under my watch, but my feelings for her are purely familial love."She's family to me, and I must care for her. But you and the kids mean more to me than anything else in the world, including her."His honesty made Angeline feel slightly more at ease. She said, "Those are your words, not mine…""I swear on my life that I mean every word." He pressed a kiss to her head. "Can I stay here tonight? I want to sleep with you and the kids. Also, I came from Brayden's place upstairs, so no one will know I'm here.""Granddad made it clear that if anyone finds out about this, he won't allow the kids to see you anymore.""Got it. Don't worry about a thing. Mr. Lawson Senior raised me, and I owe him for that. I won't put him in a tough

Angeline nodded without saying anything. Once Nathaniel was gone, she received a call from Sean."Now that everything has been taken care of, I want to give you a gift," he said, the smile in his tone evident. "Can you have the kids spend Friday night at Grand Court Residences? I want to show all three of you my gift on Saturday."He missed Yasmine and Xavier terribly. Before resolving the issue with Melissa, he hadn't dared to say he wanted to see them. Even if Angeline were okay with it, Robert probably would've objected to his wishes. Now that the dust had settled, he couldn't wait to see them."I don't call the shots regarding the kids now. I'll have to ask Granddad," Angeline said."I'll talk to him about it." Sean was worried Robert would take his anger out on her. "This all started because I insisted on being with you, so I'll handle it. I'll visit Mr. Lawson Senior later today."Angeline didn't know how Sean's conversation with Robert went, but Robert had Asher drop

That night, Melissa called Sean. "Shane, let's publicly announce our divorce. We can tell everyone that we only got married on paper so the Lane family could offer you its protection."Tell them that Dexter repeatedly tried to harm you so he could take the Kingston family fortune, and tell them how he tried to snatch you from the Lane family so he could secretly deal with you."She paused, then continued, "Now that Dexter's in prison, we can get a divorce, and Lori can adopt me as her daughter. We'll become cousins, and we'll still be a family.""Melissa…"Sean was surprised. He didn't expect her to see the light in such a short time."Since you don't have any feelings for me and won't ever make me your wife, I'll settle to be Lori's daughter. That way, you'll always be my family!" Tears streamed down Melissa's face as she spoke. "I adore Lori and want to be her daughter.""Alright," Sean said."Can you head to Keman with me, then? We can visit Dad together before getting

Melissa stared at Lori, who chuckled gently. "It's alright. There's no need to rush into anything. Take your time to think about it. Get good rest for a few days, then go shopping with me. We can buy some clothes to keep up with the changing seasons."I heard from Brayden and Sean that you're the expert in fashion and dressing up. I've always wanted a daughter who could shop, exercise, travel, café hop, and go on spa days with me."She paused and continued, "I didn't get to do any of this with you because you weren't in the best state before this. Now, though, you're all better. You're back to normal, and you've regained your memories!""I'd love that!" Melissa said without hesitation. She'd only done these things with her mother and Emelia in her dreams, but that was all they were—dreams. She was delighted now that Lori was back and willing to make her dreams come true.Sean sat on the couch and sipped his coffee. He knew Lori was doing everything she could to make his life ea

Melissa nodded. Sean said, "I know you have no company management experience. Mr. Lane might have entrusted Trustworth Group to me, but it's still yours. Before you find someone to take over, my plan for the company is still to move its focus back to Lonla."The global situation isn't the best now, and Lonla is the safest place for expansion. That's why the company's focus has to return to Lonla—""You can hand the company over to Brayden," Melissa interrupted. "The only people in this world I trust are you, Dad, and Brayden. Now that Dad's in prison and you don't want me anymore, Brayden is all I have left.""I'm still your kin, Melissa. I won't kick you to the curb and leave you to die. Nevertheless, Trustworth Group is yours. You can have whoever you want to manage it. Brayden is capable of that." Sean looked at Brayden. "What do you think? Are you willing to take over Trustworth Group?""I'll do it as long as Melissa is okay with it!" Brayden nodded. He turned to look

"That's not it! I've always been willing to care for you, and I'm more than willing to care for you in the future! It's not something that I'm forced to do…" Brayden feared his words would inadvertently hurt Melissa, so he decided not to continue in that vein.He said, "C'mon, you should head downstairs to eat something. You've already slept the day away.""I don't want to eat!" Melissa lay down again and pulled the sheets around herself. She said dully, "I want to sleep for a bit longer. Shut the door on your way out."Seeing that she'd already shut her eyes and started weeping, Brayden said softly, "I'll have the kitchen keep the food warm for you. Remember to call me when you wake up, okay? I'll be right downstairs!""Okay." Brayden left the room after hearing Melissa's muffled reply. He shut the door behind him.Melissa remained upstairs. She didn't head downstairs, even when Sean returned. Sean had already spoken to Angeline on the phone and told her he wouldn't meet

Melissa slept in her room and only woke up at night. She removed her headphones and opened her red, swollen eyes. She stared dazedly at the night sky, only returning to her senses when her headphones fell out of her hands.Brayden, who'd been waiting outside this whole time, heard them fall to the floor and hurried into the room. He saw Melissa sitting cross-legged on the bed. She propped herself on one arm while leaning down to pick up the headphones.He hurried forward and picked them up for her, then remained on one knee by the bed. He looked up at her and said, "You slept for ages, Melissa. Do you want to have anything to eat? I got all your favorites, and there are different cuisines. I also got your favorite fruits and snacks!"He'd already had the maids throw out the food he'd bought at noon. Then, he'd had his subordinate buy a fresh batch.Melissa turned to look at him dazedly. She said hoarsely, "Brayden…""I'm here," he said. "C'mon, should we get something to eat

Melissa knew Sean well. So, it was impossible for her not to know if he was being serious. Sean was indeed threatening her, and he was using his life to do it. That way, she wouldn't dare to harm Angeline for fear of hurting him.She loved Sean so much that she could give up her life for him. She wondered why he was treating her that way. He knew she wouldn't allow even the slightest possibility of her threatening his safety.Just then, Sean received a call from Brayden. He said, "...Yeah, I've already picked Melissa up. We're heading to Southstream Manor now… Yeah, you can head over there. Buy some food on your way—Melissa probably hasn't eaten anything yet. She should be hungry."At his words, Melissa couldn't hold back her tears any longer. She covered her face and started sobbing. She'd spent her whole life dreaming of becoming Sean's wife, but he was now in love with someone else and no longer wanted her.Yet, she couldn't do anything about the situation, or she'd be hurting
