Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 300
Helen quickly took out her phone and found the photos Winston had sent her today. She handed the phone to Robert."Uncle Robert, look at these three photos." She flipped through the three photos for Robert."These were taken at your birthday party. Sean, his fiancée, and Angeline were meeting here, surely plotting something. Uncle Robert, these two have no blood relation to you. You have to be cautious of them.""That's quite an interesting story," Sean said teasingly as he and Angeline walked in from outside.When Robert saw Sean and Angeline, his furrowed brows relaxed. He turned to look at Asher.Asher smiled warmly as he handed Robert a cup of coffee and lowered his voice. "It's time to let the younger generation take care of you."Robert smiled and didn't say anything, as if he agreed with Asher's words.Rowan froze the moment he saw Angeline come in.Although he had seen her through the screen during the investigation, he never expected her to look so much like Jessica.

Rowan took a few more steps away from Sean and complained, "Look at you, bringing your so-called relative into our family and making her Jessica's daughter. What are you trying to achieve? What is it?"You've set your sights on the Lawson family's fortune, haven't you? Aren't you satisfied that you've already gotten half of it despite being an adopted son? Are you trying to take it all for yourself?""You should stop calling this 'your' family, Mr. Rowan. You and Granddad went your separate ways 20 years ago. The Lawson family you're referring to now has nothing to do with you," Angeline said as she put down her cup."You have no right to speak here, brat!" Rowan raised his walking cane, wanting to hit her with it. Asher stopped him."Even you're on the outsider's side, Mr. Millstone! My brother may have been tricked in his old age, but don't tell me you have, too!" Rowan roared.Just then, Robert flung a stack of documents at him, his hands trembling."Robert?" Rowan was dumbstr

At worst, Rowan could keep Jessica around in her crazed state and have her adopt one of his own children. That way, he'd still be able to get half of the Lawson family fortune.This was also one of the reasons Robert had been in such a hurry to have Sean marry Monica—it was a way to prevent Rowan from pulling any funny tricks. Robert figured that as long as Sean had a wife from a powerful family, he'd be able to help Jessica protect Lawson Global after Robert's death.And so, a few days ago, when Rowan had heard about Robert's plan to have Jessica adopt a daughter who was also related to Sean, he'd lost his cool."What nonsense! You must've forged all of this!" Helen waved the documents around and looked at Robert. "Uncle Robert, would you rather trust an outsider than your blood relatives?"Rowan returned to his senses at her words. "Yes, exactly. Robert, you can't trust Sean! He's out to get our family's money!""Still being stubborn, are we? That's fine." Sean glanced at his wa

However, if people were to find out that Angeline was Jessica's biological daughter, it'd be no different to telling the world Jessica had been nothing but a baby-making machine that the Emmersons had kept locked in the basement. They would also find out about her giving birth to Benjamin.Robert had kept the Emmersons and everyone in Emmerson Village alive so that he could watch them suffer for the rest of their lives. It wasn't so that Benjamin and his family could continue pestering him and Jessica."Wasn't your father the one who wanted to get rid of his family?" Robert barked. "I wouldn't even call you my family, really. As Angie said, we went our separate ways 20 years ago, so the Lawson family has nothing to do with you two anymore."No one knows that we're related, and I would never admit that I have a bastard for a brother.""Robert!" Rowan widened his eyes. "Is this really how you're going to treat your only kin left in this world?""Jessica is my only kin! And Sean and

Rowan had paid both the manager and the driver off. The young man was the only one Rowan hadn't had anything to do with.The young man glanced at Sean, then at Robert. He stepped forward and cautiously placed an aged journal on the coffee table. "My mother worked at the shopping mall and served Ms. Lawson in the past. This is her journal."At the time… I was diagnosed with leukemia and needed a lot of money for my treatment. Because of that, my mother accepted the money against her better judgment and allowed Ms. Lawson to be taken away."He pursed his lips. "She spent the rest of her life living in horrible guilt. Later, on her deathbed, she told me to find a way to pass this journal to you, Mr. Lawson Senior. I'm a nobody, so I've never gotten the chance to even get near you. I've kept the journal this whole time, though."Taylor stepped forward to pick the journal up. He handed it to Robert, who took it with trembling hands and immediately started reading it. When he got to the

Helen gnashed her teeth, thinking that Angeline was using her children to suck up to Robert and Jessica.When she headed back inside the house, she saw Robert had already gotten to his feet with Angeline's help. He was about to head upstairs.She ran over to him and fell to her knees. "Uncle Robert, I had no idea my father tried to do such harm to Jessica! You may have forgiven him because he's your brother, but my conscience won't allow me to just let this matter slide."Please let me remain in the country so I can make it up to you, even if it's nothing much. I'm considered a renowned psychiatrist abroad; I want to stay here so I can help care for Jessica!" Helen's eyes turned red. She sounded as sincere as could be.Angeline, who stood beside Robert, looked at her coldly. She said, "Mom's life as the only daughter of the Lawson family was perfect before your father did those things to her. She was tormented for years because of your father's greed, and she's not even lucid now.

Jessica was Robert's only child, so he'd had high hopes for her. He'd arranged for her to attend various courses and classes since she was a child. Though he'd given Jessica all his love, he'd also pressured her.If not for that, Rowan wouldn't have successfully taken Jessica away by luring her out with the prospect of sneaking away for some fun.Robert swore he wouldn't repeat his mistakes with Xavier and Yasmine. His only wish was for them to grow up happily and healthily.Angeline helped Robert upstairs. After that, having heard from Sandy that Jessica was already resting after taking some sleeping pills, she kept her footfalls light as she headed to the third floor. She pushed Jessica's door open to check on her.The nightlight's dim glow was just about enough for Angeline to see Jessica sleeping soundly. She teared up a little as she quietly shut the door.Sandy smiled when she saw this. "I knew you'd be here. Don't worry—Jessica's been doing well recently. Now that you, Xavi

"Also… when are you gonna leave the Lawson family and come back? My dad's ready on his end. Once you're back, we can take Dexter down! I'm also ready—all you need to do is give me a date, and I'll get that accident orchestrated," Brayden said.Sean turned to look at the children, who were still playing. He furrowed his brows. "You'll have to wait for me to finish things up with Lawson Global. We've waited for years now; there's no need to rush."As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Angeline came into the room."That's all. Bye," Sean said before hanging up. When he saw the pajamas she held, he asked, "Did Ms. Hull prepare that for you?""Yeah." She nodded with a smile. "It's late, so… you should also get some rest.""Can't Daddy sleep with us?" Yasmine looked up and blinked in confusion. "Mommy, I want Xavier and I to sleep between you and Daddy!""I don't wanna!" Xavier prodded Yasmine's chubby cheek scornfully. "Don't forget that we have to call him 'Mr. Lawson' when we'

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
Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 1056
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
