Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 488
The text message that Sean had already drafted remained unsent.Taylor had the driver turn the car around to head into the restaurant's parking lot. Then, he heard Sean say to the driver, "You can head home for tonight. Have Taylor call you a cab."The driver waved his hands, saying that there was no need to go to such trouble. He quickly got out of the car and handed the keys to Taylor before hailing a cab and leaving.Taylor turned to see Sean making a call, looking displeased. One would have to be blind to miss the fact that Sean was in a bad mood—he oozed iciness and oppression.Instead of getting back into the car, Taylor chose to stand outside while calling the restaurant. He didn't know whether Sean wanted to eat there, but he had to make plans regardless so that Sean would have the option if he wanted. Even if there weren't any empty seats in there, he had to find a way to get one.Sean's time was too precious, after all.…Inside a private room, Angeline's phone vibrate

"Get in." Sean tried to keep his desire in check.Ultimately, Angeline's heart ached because Taylor had told her that Sean had only had a cup of coffee since noon. She circled the car and got in. As she did so, the window rolled back up.She shut the door and turned to look at Sean. "Maybe you could eat something nearby while waiting for me. I'm still worried about the people from the branch company seeing—"Before she could finish, he pulled her into his arms and wrapped an arm around her waist, making her sit on his lap. He held her head with his free hand and kissed her."Don't…" Angeline's heart raced. She glanced uneasily at Lenny and Taylor, who had their backs to the car. Her ears burned bright red. "Taylor and Lenny are outside.""The glass has a privacy filter, so they can't see us!" With that, Sean pulled her closer to him.This time, Angeline didn't reject him. She lowered her head to meet his lips, placing her hands on her shoulders. Her fingers clenched around his sh

Angeline missed Sean terribly, too. She'd wanted him to stay at Grand Court Residences the night before, yet he'd been mean enough to leave after making her itch.He combed his fingers through her hair, giving her another deep and long kiss before breaking away from her. She leaned her head against his shoulder as she tried to catch her breath.Still dazed from his kisses, she asked, "Are you going to kiss me again?""No." Sean pecked her on the cheek as he tried to catch his breath. There was a hint of a smile in his voice as he continued, "I can show you some other tricks when we're at the hotel, though."Since he'd agreed to give her an hour, he would stick to his word. He watched as Angeline straightened her clothes and caught her breath. Then, he glanced at his watch. "One hour, as agreed. I'm gonna start counting down now."When she glared at him without saying anything, he pushed the door open and said, "Not a minute late.""Alright, alright." She shut the door before head

Though Angeline was 15 minutes late, she'd already tried her best to get back on time. She wondered why Sean couldn't have just waited a little longer.He'd done the same thing at Grand Court Residences the other day. He'd aroused her, then left without doing anything about it.Sean had done it again today. Earlier, in the car, they'd been one step away from doing the deed. He'd looked at her like he wanted to swallow her whole, and he'd even said those things to make her mind go down the gutter. Yet he was now gone after she'd hurried back from the dinner!It was as if Sean had placed a piece of candy before Angeline. The candy looked delicious, and she could smell how sweet it was. Yet he kept stopping her from eating it and leaving her hanging.How could he be so mean?She had the feeling he was tormenting her on purpose. He was doing it to get back at her!Sean chuckled on the other end of the line. "Remember to get some rest. I'm leaving.""Where are you going?" Angeline so

Sean's words made warmth trickle through Angeline's veins. They seemed to have grown closer after a short cold war. In the past, they'd never squabbled like this before. It was as if they were nothing but a regular couple.Angeline leaned against the couch's armrest and propped her head up with one hand. Her eyes became a little misty and red—she wanted badly to tell Sean how much she missed him, but she was also afraid he would tell Taylor to turn the car around. It would only cause more delay for him.Sean hadn't said anything about agreeing to her request to reach common ground, but his actions showed he was going along with what she wanted.His voice rang out again on the other end of the line. "It's time to go to bed.""Alright. Let me know once you've arrived, and stay safe."After hanging up, Angeline called Jamie. "Ask Taylor for a copy of Mr. Lawson's schedule tomorrow.""Yes, ma'am," Jamie answered.She hung up and went to take a shower. Instead of heading to bed direc

"That's settled, then." The smile in Sean's eyes was apparent. "Enough work for tonight. Dry your hair before going to bed."Angeline's ears turned a little red at the thought of her and Sean being alone over the weekend. She nodded and asked, "Do I need to prepare anything for our getaway?""Nope. I'll pick you up in Westine.""Okay. Well… goodnight." Angeline took her glasses off after hanging up. Then, she shut her laptop and got into bed. She was already looking forward to their short weekend trip.The next morning, Angeline told Jamie that she and Sean were going to drive to Lake Tohey over the weekend. She had him add it to her schedule.When the news got back to Lawson Global, the senior executives who had been under the impression Sean and Angeline were fighting over the inheritance rights were befuddled. Those who had secretly already picked sides visited their allies to dig for more information.Gary, who was a firm supporter of Sean, told the others confidently, "Whate

Although Asher had been helping Robert split Sean and Angeline up, he didn't think there was anything that could be done, especially since Sean and Angeline already had children together. It wasn't right for Xavier and Yasmine not to be able to acknowledge their father.If not for the fact that Sean and Angeline were uncle and niece in name, they would've made a pretty good match."Whether or not Sean leaves the Lawson family, there's no way he and Angie can remain together," Robert said grimly. "I won't be able to handle the humiliation, and neither can the Lawson family take it!"Asher smiled. "Honestly, if we'd arranged for Mr. Sean and Ms. Angeline to marry before bringing her back to the Lawson family, all of our problems would have long since been resolved.""That's where you're wrong. Sean already told the world that Angie was his relative so that he'd have a proper reason to care for her. How can they marry when people think of them as relatives? Besides, the Emmerson famil

Sean took the phone from Yasmine, who was in his arms, and said to Angeline, "Mr. Millstone didn't just send the kids to join us. He also had Ewan, Jesse, Kieron, Nathaniel, and Rachel tag along."The three Scott sisters weren't in attendance—probably because they were too busy fighting each other for the Scott family fortune.But as soon as the words were out of Sean's mouth, an off-road vehicle stopped beside Nathaniel's car. Lara got out and greeted Nathaniel with a smile.Sean added, "Lara Scott is here, too…"On the other end of the line, Angeline was bemused and tried to catch on to the situation. This trip had originally started as a short one with just her and Sean. She was happy that the kids could join them, but she was puzzled by the fact that everyone else had tagged along, too.She wondered if they were here to mess things up. Angeline wasn't wrong. Robert had arranged for the other people to come mess up Sean and Angeline's private time.She told Sean, "Remind the

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
