Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 461
Jesse was calm before his elusive crush from years ago, Angeline, who was way out of his league. The two sat by the floor-to-ceiling window facing the lake, with colorful night lights reflecting onto the transparent glass and casting onto Angeline's natural, fair cheeks. She was so gorgeous that one wouldn't take their eyes off her. "To tell you the truth, I was a little nervous and still feel a lingering fear now when meeting you." Jesse's ears reddened. Despite his efforts to remain calm and behave naturally, his micro-expressions showed his nervousness. "After all, I know how different we are," Jesse said. "When we were young, you were always the champion in every competition you participated in. Not only was your gorgeous appearance unforgettable, but your resume was out of our reach. "In just a few years, you've founded Vitality Biotech Group. You've also secured a huge collaboration project for Lawson Global so soon after you joined them. You've always had countless h

"How do you know I'm obsessed with you if you don't give me a chance?" Jesse asked in urgency. "You might still be recovering from your relationship with Ned, but trust me! Just give me three months. If you think we're not for each other, I'll give up on you then." At the sight of Angeline's unchanged expression and sensing she was about to speak, Jesse quickly interrupted, "One month! Just one month is enough! Even if I'm not the one, Mr. Lawson Senior will still arrange another man for you. I'm sure they'll waste your time, and you'll meet them half-heartedly."Trust me, Angie. We can remain friends for a month, and I won't cross the line. That's all I want." "I'm sorry, Mr. Zinn. But I already have someone I like. It's just that Granddad doesn't want me to be with him, so he arranged our blind date today. I'm so sorry for wasting your time," Angeline said. "But are you two officially dating? If you haven't made it public, you're not officially together. Why not just give me

Sean and Angeline's seats were facing each other. She could see from the corner of her eyes that Sean was talking to the person sitting opposite him, but he never looked at Angeline. Angeline remained in her seat as she looked at Sean, who was smiling while talking to Jesse. She sipped her water and checked her phone to suppress her emotions. Although it was only a few days, to Angeline, it felt like months had passed since she last saw Sean. Angeline's last few days were torturous as she missed Sean's scent, embrace, and breathtaking kisses. But her heart sank a little when she recalled Sean walking away without stopping when she tried to hug him at Steele Group's resort villa. Angeline thought she had controlled her emotions very well, but she couldn't reach Sean's level of flexibility in emotional management. Despite their relationship becoming awkward because of Angeline's request for Sean to control himself, and even if Angeline thought she was greedy for wanting to ha

"There's something I need to do tonight," Sean said calmly. Even if Angeline was thick-skinned, Sean's stern reply still saddened her. She awkwardly nodded and returned to her table. Jesse smiled at Angeline. "What a coincidence! I didn't expect to see Mr. Lawson here." Angeline pressed her lips without a reply. Jesse remembered that both Sean and Angeline had been adopted by Robert and assumed Angeline was nervous because her family had caught her seeing a man. "Mr. Lawson is considered your uncle, isn't he?" "Yeah," Angeline replied before sipping her wine. "I've told him about our blind date set up by Mr. Lawson Senior. So don't worry about it," Jesse said with a smile. "Mr. Lawson mentioned you founded Vitality Biotech Group because you enjoy academic research. There should be a lot we can talk about." "Is that so?" Angeline finally smiled. "Who would've thought my uncle knows a lot about me." Jesse felt delighted after seeing Angeline's smile. He asked,

Angeline coincidentally saw Ned exiting his car as she arrived downstairs of her apartment. Ned appeared to be in a rush as he still had a lit cigarette between his fingers. At the sight of Angeline looking at him with her brows furrowed, he quickly threw the cigarette to the ground and extinguished it with the tip of his shoes. Ned went up the steps and held the elevator door open for Angeline after successfully unlocking the door. Angeline followed up the steps in confusion while staring at Ned, who was like a doorman waiting for his guest. "How did you…" "I live on the fourth floor," Ned explained. "Listen, I understand what you told me last time. There's Anne and Henrietta's death standing in between us. I understand. I understand it all. I won't ask for your forgiveness just like this." Ned was tall and slender, so he looked down at Angeline as he held the door open for her. Despite that, he had a lowly presence, with his eyes red and a lump in his throat. Ned was

Angeline bit her lips. "Ms. Angeline, please be considerate of Mr. Lawson Senior," Asher said. "This is already his mildest means! You can not date the men, but you must go on the blind dates. You really shouldn't force Mr. Lawson Senior to take drastic actions. Not only will it be bad for you and Sean, but it may also affect your relationship with Mr. Lawson Senior. "Besides, angering Mr. Lawson Senior may affect his health too. You've seen his medical report. It's best if he isn't angered anymore." Angeline felt defeated and lay back on the couch. She covered her eyes with the back of her hand to obstruct the lights from her view. Asher understood Robert the most. Naturally, he would know what Robert was plotting. Regardless of whether these blind dates could increase the friction between Angeline and Sean, they could take up most of Angeline's time. After all, Robert knew how busy the work at Lawson Global was. If Sean wasn't in a meeting or on a business trip, then he

Ned was about to move forward, but Lenny blocked him. He shouted, "Angie, I brought you some hangover soup." "Don't do unnecessary things, Ned. I don't need it. Lenny, you can leave after you send Ned out," Angeline said before hanging up and walking back to the couch to continue checking her schedule. After confirming her clear schedule for the next morning, Angeline leaned back into the couch. She wondered how long Sean would continue with the silent treatment. Angeline had never felt this uncomfortable before, even when she had poured her heart out to Ned when they were together. She closed her eyes while leaning on the couch. After a while, she impulsively got up to get changed and randomly grabbed a document from her bag. She then retrieved her car key and headed down after checking the surveillance camera to confirm both Lenny and Ned weren't at the door. After leaving her parking area and confirming no one was following, Angeline stepped on the pedal and drove off

"Oh, okay…" Angeline gripped the steering wheel. "Sorry to bother you. I'm hanging up." But before Angeline could end the call, Sean asked, "Why are you calling me with Lucy's phone?" "I left my phone at home," Angeline answered. "It's fine. I'm heading back now." "Are you alone?" Sean's eyebrows furrowed. He recalled Angeline had a lot to drink at the restaurant earlier that day. Before Angeline could answer, Sean continued, "I won't be home tonight. You can spend the night in the manor." "It's fine. Don't bother."Angeline sounded hoarse. "I'm hanging up now." She returned the phone and thanked Lucy after hanging up. She drove out of the neighborhood and stopped by the side of the road. She noticed a lit convenience store with a poster stating, "Facial recognition payment system available". So Angeline exited the car and bought a bottle of cold water. She left the convenience store and drank the water at the entrance. She was contemplating if she should par

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
