At the Kingston residence, Dexter had just been told that they'd run the wrong guy over. He was so angry that he kicked the coffee table over. "Useless! You're all useless! How could you get them mixed up?" Dexter's hands were shaking with anger. "If we don't kill Shane this time, then Shane and that Lane fellow will be on their guard! Getting Shane to leave Lane's protection was so difficult for us. Is this how you operate? I've spent so much money on them over the years, and instead of helping me take care of business, your subordinates create trouble.""Dexter, our subordinates are not to blame. It was simply a coincidence that Sean and Shane appeared in the same city and checked into the same hotel. We were confused when they exited the hotel because they really do look very similar to one another! It's true!" Cain hurriedly placed the photos of Sean and Shane on the coffee table. "Look! They're really very similar! They could be mistaken for twins!""Nonsense!" Dexte
"Boss, it's going to be difficult! Firstly, the Lanes are already on their guard, and secondly…" Cain looked uncomfortable. "We just murdered Mr. Lawson of Lawson Global. If we try anything now and it gets on the news, the Lawsons will see Shane's photo. They'll definitely put two and two together and realize that Sean was mistakenly killed. When that happens, you'll have two enemies.""What a bother! He's just an adopted son. Would the Lawsons care that much?" Dexter unbuttoned his shirt irritatedly. "That's hard to say. We're not even sure how things are in Lonla right now!" Cain looked worried. …After Sean's departure, Angeline had been having endless meetings to stabilize the company. She visited all their subsidiaries across the country. She only missed Sean when she returned to her hotel late at night. She would worry about how Sean was faring since his return to the Kingstons. When she exited the airport, Angeline instructed Jamie and Taylor to return home to re
Melissa was the only heiress of Trustworth Group, after all. Her appearance at the airport with her husband became a trending topic. In the video, Sean wore sunglasses and had his fingers intertwined with Melissa's. As they faced a crowd of reporters, he shielded Melissa as they got into the car. The media complimented them and regarded them as a perfect couple.At first, Angeline felt uncomfortable when she saw Sean and Melissa holding hands. However, she had already known that this would happen before Sean's return. Sean was now Shane, Melissa's husband. There was no trace of jealousy in Angeline's expression. Brayden didn't know why, but he felt rather annoyed. "Didn't you say that you love Shane? Then… why aren't you angry when you see him being affectionate with Melissa?""Did you invite me in just so you could see me getting angry?" Angeline got up. "In public, they're a married couple. It would be strange if they did not behave affectionately with each other! If yo
"I'll get going if there isn't anything else. Please don't contact me in the future if there isn't anything urgent. We're not that close." Angeline put Brayden's phone on the coffee table and turned to leave.Just as Angeline reached the doorway in the foyer, Brayden caught up to her and grabbed the doorknob before she did. He looked seriously at her and said, "Angeline, I truly advise you to leave Shane. This is for the good of you, the Lawsons, and Shane. You don't know this, but there's a crazy guy who hangs around Melissa. If he finds out about you and Shane, he will not hesitate to hurt you to stop Melissa from being sad.""If it weren't for me, he would have risked his life for hatred. He treasures his life because I'm his anchor. I don't see myself as a weakness." Angeline looked at Brayden and said solemnly, "Besides, how do you know that I won't be able to help him?" She indicated for him to open the door.He frowned and stared at her. He wondered if she was unafrai
"Xave…" Angeline called out Xavier's pet name softly and gently. "You like Daddy very much, don't you?"Xavier's lips were pressed tightly together, and he said nothing. It made his cheeks look even chubbier. Anyone who saw him would have the urge to poke those cheeks. "Daddy loves you and Yasmine the most." Angeline's voice was unusually gentle. However, she did not know when Sean would be able to return, so she could not make any promises to Xavier.She also had to consider the possibilities.It was possible that Sean could only return when the children had grown up, so she didn't want to give them hope and disappoint them continuously. Therefore, she had no choice but to keep it a secret. "Alright. Don't worry about Yasmine, Mommy. I'll tell her that we haven't had a father for so many years, so… even if Sean is dead, it's alright." Xavier's eyes turned even redder. He sniffed. "I'll persuade Yasmine not to mention Daddy again in the future."Xavier rubbed his e
Angeline felt suffocated. Sean had once asked her if she was possessive of him, and she now realized that she was. She knew that it was all an act and that Sean had to be Melissa's husband if he wanted to resume his original identity. Still, she was overwhelmed. Her mood had already been low due to exhaustion, and now she felt worse.She picked up the phone that Sean had passed to her through Brayden, glanced at it, and then put it down again.Although she was in a bad mood, she still hoped that Sean was safe and that he could successfully accomplish his goals. She would settle the score with him when he returned.Angeline went to bed with her emotions weighing heavily on her, and she did not sleep well. Fortunately, it was Saturday the next day, and she was not in a hurry to get up.However, she had to attend a social gathering with Monica and her sisters. Nathaniel and a few other heirs of the other families would be playing golf together so she could not wake up too late
Melissa felt very aggrieved. They had grown up together, and Sean had always been the only man in her heart. How could he fall in love with someone else and claim that she was just a sister to him?"That has nothing to do with it, Melissa." Sean's voice softened. "Even when the adults made jokes in our childhood, I said the same thing… In my eyes, you're just my younger sister." Due to Emelia's fondness for Melissa and the strong bond between Spencer and Brian, they had all hoped that Sean and Melissa would make a pact to be married. However, Sean had told Emelia that since he didn't have a younger sister, he would treat Melissa as his younger sibling and look after her as an older brother.Sean had never thought of Melissa as a candidate for a future wife.Melissa would always be family to him."A younger sister?" Melissa laughed. She clenched her fists tightly and mustered up all her courage before abruptly sitting on Sean."Melissa!"Before Melissa could put her arms
At Sean's words, Melissa got up and left with her phone."Melissa!" Sean called out after her.However, she ignored him. She didn't even change out of her pajamas and slippers before leaving and slamming the door shut behind her.The bodyguard standing watch outside was startled to see Melissa leaving, and he hurriedly rushed after her.Sean called and instructed the bodyguard to follow Melissa closely, ensuring her safety. He went into the study, opened a drawer, and took out the phone that he would use to contact Angeline. However, it was already after 11:00 pm, so he suppressed his desire to hear Angeline's voice.He closed his eyes, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.They had only been apart for a few days, but Sean was finding it hard to endure how much he missed Angeline.The phone on his desk vibrated.He opened his eyes and glanced at it. Brayden was calling.He picked it up and put it to his ear. "What's the matter?" Sean had arranged for Brayden to return to
