Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 309
Sean walked Angeline to her bedroom. His gaze landed on her lips, and his Adam's apple bobbed. He held himself from kissing her since they were at the old Lawson residence. Instead, he just said, "Get some rest. You'll be plenty busy starting tomorrow."She nodded. "Okay. Well… goodnight. You get some rest, too."As soon as the words were out of her mouth, Sean placed a hand on the door and took a step into the room. He wrapped his free hand around the back of her head and gave her a searing kiss.The door was still wide open, and they were at the old Lawson residence. Angeline's eyes widened in shock; she tried to push him away.The kiss, though passionate, didn't last long. Sean looked down at Angeline, whose ears were bright red. He said in a low voice, "Goodnight.""There are surveillance cameras around here!" Angeline's heart raced. She was afraid Robert would catch them.Since getting Jessica back, surveillance cameras had been installed in every corridor in the old Lawson

Ned's expression was dark as he looked at Helen. "So, how do you want me to work with you?""Those children can't remain with the Lawson family. I can help to lure them out and hand them to you. Since they're your children, you can deal with them however you please! But no matter what, you have to make sure they can't return to the Lawson family."Helen smiled. "You're their father, after all. No one can say you're in the wrong for taking them away."She'd heard that Xavier and Yasmine had Robert and Jessica wrapped around their fingers. Jessica, especially, couldn't be away from them at all. Besides, she'd also heard from Robert's lawyer's assistant that Robert's will stated some of his things would go to Xavier and Yasmine. How could she not be jealous?Despite being related to Robert by blood, Helen wasn't getting a single dime. Yet Angeline's bastard children were included in the will. Helen's father was Robert's brother!That wasn't all. Robert had earlier agreed to let Row

Helen nodded. "I didn't expect you to care so much about them.""Of course, I care about them! They're my kids!" Ned turned to leave."Has something gone wrong with Vitality Biotech again? I'm on good terms with Danny Reilly, the head of their Lonla Division, and…" Helen paused and picked up her coffee. "I also know their founder pretty well."If you need help, perhaps I could lend you a hand. You should know that Danny was invited to my uncle's birthday celebration."Ned clenched his fist around his phone when he heard Helen say she knew Vitality Biotech's founder. But at the thought of her ulterior motives, he said, "I'll speak to you again if I need your help."Helen watched him leave and sneered. Every human would naturally be fond of their flesh and blood, yet Robert was an exception to the rule. His old age was getting to him. That was why he was siding with an outsider instead of with his kin.She picked up her bag and walked out of the cafe. At the same time, she called W

Angeline followed Sean into his office. As soon as they were inside, Sean told Taylor, "Wait outside. Don't let anyone in here.""Yes, sir," Taylor said.Once Taylor shut the door, Sean pulled Angeline into his arms as he leaned against the desk. Even with his glasses in the way, she could see the pulsing desire and emotions in his eyes. Yet his expression was serious and cool.She put her hand against his chest; her ears burned from his attentive stare. "What's wrong?"He tucked her hair behind her ear. His tone was dangerously possessive as he said, "I'm trying my best to control myself.""What?" Angeline was a little confused."I can stand others looking up to you, but I don't like it when the looks become coveting or challenging." It was clear from Sean's tone that he was holding himself back.Before sleeping with Angeline, or even before she'd confessed her feelings for him, he would've been able to control himself. However, after Angeline agreed to continue with their rela

Even if Sean was on the brink of losing control, he was still willing to do everything in his might to keep his emotions in check.Earlier, however, during the meeting, he'd genuinely entertained the thought of doing away with the people who'd displayed interest in Angeline.Their gazes met. They were so close to each other that their breaths mingled. Sean traced Angeline's lips with his thumb and slowly leaned down to kiss her.When she realized what he was up to, her breathing sped up. As he got closer to her, her scalp tingled. When his nose touched hers, Angeline's breathing hitched. Her lashes fluttered uncontrollably; she felt like jolts of electricity were zapping through her.Sean pressed his lips lightly to hers and took in the look on her face. Her sweet scent wafted into his nostrils; she reminded him of a ripe fruit ready for picking.He parted her lips and deepened the kiss. Their breathing grew heavier. Angeline's head tipped back as she responded to his enthusiastic

Angeline's current identity was Angeline Lawson, the granddaughter of Lawson Global's chairman, Robert Lawson. The employees would address Sean as Mr. Lawson and Angeline as Ms. Lawson."There's one more thing." Taylor opened the folder he held and placed it on the desk. "Mr. Rowan Lawson has already transferred all his shares to Helen; the latter bought more from the other board members and their children."She now holds 10% of the company's shares and has the right to attend today's mid-year review."Sean quickly flipped through the document before handing it to Angeline. After reading it, she asked, "Has Rowan already been arrested?""Yes, Ms. Lawson. The maid that he bought off to poison Mr. Lawson Senior in the past has already provided the police with the evidence of his crime. The legal department looked into it and concluded that the matter can still be pursued."Taylor added, "I already have people looking into which board members Helen has been in contact with, but it's

Sean tapped a finger on the documents Taylor had compiled. The reason Daniel allowed Winston to get away with everything was because Winston was his only child. If he were to find out that Winston, whose personality and capabilities were nothing like his own, wasn't even his son… would Daniel still be so tolerant?…Helen was already inside the conference room. She used her identity as Robert's niece to make her way around the room, greeting the other members of the board.The board members had never taken Rowan, a bastard child, seriously. Why would they care about his daughter? Still, now that Helen held 10% of the company's shares, the situation was different.Daniel had dragged Winston over to a corner to give him a shelling. "Who gave you the nerve to sell 2% of your shares to Helen?""C'mon, Dad! Helen's an actual member of the Lawson family, unlike Sean and Angeline. What if she ends up becoming the Lawsons' heiress?" Winston tucked his hands into his pockets, looking lik

Angeline looked at the board member who'd spoken. His name was Mason Denton. She'd seen his profile but hadn't seen him at Robert's birthday celebration."Looks like you already have something in mind, Mr. Denton." Someone gave Mason a chance to continue."Oh, yes. Now that the environment is getting worse, one's health will become something that people will be willing to spend more money on. In fact, it'll probably be the most important thing to most people!" Mason said.He glanced at Helen. "And so, I suggest we consolidate the management of the medical and pharmaceutical industries. Then, we have someone from Lawson Global oversee these industries.""I agree!""Me, too!"Some of the board members agreed with Mason after some consideration. Daniel didn't voice his opinion. Instead, he asked, "Does that mean you already have a candidate in mind, Mr. Denton?""Yes, I do." Mason nodded. "I propose Helen Lawson for the job. Setting aside the fact that she holds 10% of the company'

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
Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 1057
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
