Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 413
Angeline felt unsettled, but she knew it wasn't right.She had witnessed the loving relationship between Marion and Reese. Reese worked with other women all day long. Sometimes, he'd stay in the lab for over ten hours at a stretch. Whenever his research reached a crucial stage, he'd even stay there for two days.However, according to Marion, if one loved someone, he or she would have to give the person enough trust. Angeline undoubtedly loved Sean. Therefore, she had to make sure Sean understood her trust in him.In fact, Angeline had deep faith in Sean's integrity, and she trusted him more than she trusted herself. Due to her upbringing, she developed a profound sense of insecurity. She also recognized this aspect of herself.For their relationship to thrive, trust and honesty were essential.She had intended to find an opportunity to talk to Sean about the future and let him know that even though she was bothered by Melissa, she'd give him enough trust not to let her suspicion

"Mr. Fletcher ordered food for Ms. Angeline," Lenny answered on Angeline's behalf."This wasn't ordered by Ned," Angeline stated with certainty.Sean's handsome face remained expressionless. He glanced at the dishes on the table. "There are truffles and foie gras, which you don't eat?"Angeline nodded. "So I think someone ordered flowers and food for me in Ned's name, but... What could their motive be? I need to figure it out.""Are you so certain that after all these years, Ned still remembers your preferences?" Sean stood with his hands in his pockets beside Angeline, watching as Jamie put the dishes into the insulated container.Angeline pondered for a moment before nodding. "I guess so. I'll have Jamie look into the contact information of the person who placed the order. That should shed some light on this!"Seeing Jamie had finished packing up, she added, "From now on, if there's no instruction from me, don't bring up flowers or food anymore. Just reject them outright.""Ce

After finishing her words, Angeline seemed worried that Sean might misunderstand. She added, "It's not that I don't trust you. It's just... I don't know much about your other identity. The only person I know besides Lenny is Brayden. I can see that you have a deep bond with Brayden. He's your cousin, yet he wants us to separate so that you can be with Melissa. I feel like when I'm not around, he must still be trying to set you up with Melissa, so... I hope you can keep your distance from Melissa. I wonder if my request is too much?"Sean set down his fork. "I promise you. At the same time, I also ask you to keep your distance from Ned. Just like today, don't accept anything he sends. Angeline... I'll be jealous! I'll feel jealous if anything he sends shows up in front of you!"After a pause, he continued, "Not just Ned, but I'll be jealous of anyone who approaches you with intentions. I can't be by your side, but I selfishly hope you keep your distance from those people. Is that too

Angeline's toes curled up. A tingling sensation ran up her spine to the top of her head. She even felt a layer of tiny goosebumps forming on her arms."Sean..." Angeline's voice was as soft as a kitten's. She tried to pull her hand back. "Don't..."Before Angeline could finish her sentence, she exclaimed and tightly wrapped her arms around Sean's neck as he led her toward the pantry. Both Angeline and Sean's offices had small lounges, but Angeline had never used hers since joining Lawson Global.Sean tossed her onto the soft bed, and as Angeline watched him lock the lounge door, her heart remained uneasy. Just as she was about to get up, Sean pushed her back down."Let's... Let's go home! Grand Court Residences isn't far from here." Angeline's voice trembled slightly and tinged with a hint of longing. She had to admit that Sean could always easily turn her on, causing her desires for him to become impure.Sean pressed Angeline's hands against her head with one hand. As he continue

Not only that, but Sean also became greedy. He greedily wished for Angeline to have the same possessiveness toward him.Afterward, Sean gently cleaned up for Angeline and kissed her forehead lightly.When Angeline woke up and checked the time, she hurriedly got up and urged Sean, "You can't stay in my office any longer. Otherwise, people will start gossiping."Seeing Angeline hastily getting dressed, Sean also stood up and put on his vest. His graceful fingers swiftly buttoned it up and adjusted his tie.Later that afternoon, news spread among the company's top executives that Sean had lunched with Angeline and ended up staying in her office past working hours. They also heard that when Sean came out with a grim expression, and the dishes on the table were all overturned.It wasn't until past two o'clock that Angeline let Jamie into her office. Not only did she change the carpet, but she also changed her clothes.The secretaries were all guessing how fierce their argument must ha

Hence, it was inevitable that he would be busy.On her way back, Angeline stopped by a pharmacy and bought an emergency contraception pill.Although Sean and her had gotten a bit carried away earlier, he still remembered her words and withdrew in time.However, Angeline still couldn't help but worry.She remembered reading somewhere that without using a condom, even with the withdrawal method, it still wasn't entirely safe. Many people gambled on their luck yet ended up pregnant instead.When Sean eventually left Lawson Global, it would be her turn to take over the company. Hence, she had to ensure that she was in her very best state.Otherwise, how would she live up to Robert's expectations?Besides, for a woman to gain recognition in the workplace, she would have to put in extra effort as compared to men.Right now, she still couldn't reveal her marital status with Sean. If she were to become pregnant, it would undoubtedly spark numerous speculations about her marital status.

Sensing that it wasn't the right time to bring up Ned, Mallory quickly corrected herself. "We agreed that I would be your bridesmaid on your wedding day and you would be mine!""I've never said that," Angeline immediately rebutted.Mallory's face instantly flushed red. She huffed, "Yes, you did! Back then, you must've been so caught up in studying that you didn't hear what I said! You agreed to it at that time! "Nonetheless, I know that you're now the vice president of Lawson Global and must be very busy. So I won't pressure you into being my bridesmaid, but you must attend the wedding! You, Zachary, and I grew up together. There'll also be a lot of our old friends there. They all miss you so dearly. Besides—""I'm sorry," Angeline interjected. She pretended to glance at her wristwatch and said with an apologetic smile, "I have another appointment. I'll definitely make it to your wedding if I have the time! Congratulations…""Angeline, why have you become so distant?" Mallory cou

They made it seem as though everyone but Angeline was innocent—she alone committed the egregious crime of regaining consciousness. She should've remained in a coma and died off without ever waking up.Whenever these so-called childhood friends of hers gathered, they would all grumble, saying that things would've been much better if Angeline had never woken up.They even tried to give their unsolicited advice to Angeline, saying that Ned and she had merely been in a relationship. That didn't mean he owed her anything. Since he had fallen in love with someone else, why couldn't she be the bigger person and let him go so that he could be with his new love?Angeline had cherished them as friends, and their actions broke her heart.But now, she no longer cared about her friendship with them, realizing that they were never sincerely her friends. Thus, the painful past didn't affect her anymore."Mallory, it's true that I was once easily blinded by my emotions, but that's not the case an

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
