Wanda could tell Ingrid was down in the dumps. She felt worried something would happen to Ingrid while driving, so she said, "Don't worry about the film set. I'll call the crew and ask them for the day off. Where are you now? I have something to tell you, so I'll go to you.""Can we do this tomorrow? I'm… I'm not feeling well today." Ingrid didn't want to see anyone at the moment."It's important, Ingrid. I wouldn't have called you otherwise," Wanda said seriously.Left with no choice, Ingrid shared her location with Wanda. Wanda grabbed her bag and told the rest of the employees to keep their mouths shut. She had them discuss the PR statement and devise a proper plan. They were to email it to her later.After that, she quickly drove to Ingrid.…As Wanda pulled her hair out over Ingrid and Ned's mess, Brayden received a report on Wyndham Films' financial figures since Ned had taken over."My, my. It looks like he's actually pretty good at raking in the big bucks!" He flip

"So, you're saying this is good for us?" Brayden raised an eyebrow.Serena said, "You can say that. This means we'll be keeping Ned as the president of Wyndham Entertainment, right? Do you have any other instructions?""You mentioned he's going on some TV show, right?" Brayden asked. "What the hell's wrong with him? Why's a company's President going on TV to make a fool of himself?"Serena frowned. "Don't make it sound so horrible. Mr. Fletcher's fiancée, Ingrid Dalton, is on the same show. He'll create hype for the show by being on it, which will increase viewership. After all, the mess between Mr. Fletcher, Ingrid, and his ex-wife, Ms. Angeline Lawson, was widespread."Wyndham Entertainment's also invested in this show. Mr. Fletcher's presence on the show will only bring us benefits. There's no downside to this.""Wait, so he's going on a show with Ingrid? Has he lost his mind?" Brayden didn't understand. Didn't Ned swear he would do everything he could to win Angeline b

"Come in. Tell me more." Brayden was evidently interested.Serena entered the room and sat across from him. "I know someone who's part of Ingrid's management. They have told me in secret that the team is preparing an emergency plan because Mr. Fletcher will go on Survival Island to tell everyone that he and Ingrid had called off their engagement."He's going to explain that Ms. Lawson is the only one who holds his heart now that he's regained his memories, so he can't be with Ingrid anymore. He even told Ingrid's management to push all the blame on him."Serena paused, then continued, "He actually said that society is too unforgiving to women. He's willing to take the blame because he's not a public figure—he can handle the netizens' criticism."Brayden widened his eyes. "So he's going on the show to pursue his ex-wife, huh?""I don't think it's gonna work out." Serena stroked her jaw thoughtfully. "And I think history's gonna repeat itself when he eventually has to win

Angeline's accusations toward the Lane family reverberated in Sean's mind. His gaze darkened as he lowered his arm and allowed Usman to leave."Mr. Lane, why have you tried time and time again to kill Monica? She was lucky enough not to die in her earlier accident, yet you sent someone after her again. Is it simply because she used to be my fiancée?" Sean felt a chill run down his spine.His tone was icy as he continued, "Do human lives mean that little to you? How are your actions any different from Wayne Pennington and the like?""I had no choice!" Brian couldn't stop his eyes from turning red. "Melissa's my only child, Shane. Marrying you has been her biggest dream since she was a child, and she's given up everything she could for your sake!"She's my treasure, Shane. She resorted to drugging you and herself so that she could be with you, yet you refused to touch her because of Monica. Look at how that turned out—she ended up sleeping with someone else and even getting pre
Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 830
Brian wiped his tears. "This has nothing to do with Melissa. I'm the one who's behind everything, so push all the blame on me if you need someone to blame."Don't link Melissa to this, Shane. I've already got someone to do the job, and I can give you my life to make it up to you if you want. I only hope you can treat Melissa well. She's genuinely in love with you!"Sean was already sick of telling Brian that he only considered Melissa as his sister. He pursed his lips and remained silent. The iciness in his gaze made Brian feel smothered.Brian knew that this matter had already driven a wedge between them, so he decided to make things clear with Sean once and for all. "I'm not joking around, Shane. I'm willing to give up my life as long as you and Melissa are happy together."I only want to see you have a child with Melissa. I want her to have someone she can depend on in the future!"Sean said hoarsely, "You know she can't have children anymore, Mr. Lane.""She can! Vitality

Brian paled. His blood ran cold when he turned to see the door ajar.Sean was the first to snap to his senses and dart into the room. "Melissa!"She'd tugged her IV drip off, rolled off the bed, and hit her head on the bedside table. When she'd fallen, the machines that had been plugged into her had fallen with her. They'd crashed on top of her, making her bleed from the head.Sean lifted her into his arms and shouted, "Get the doctor!"Brian was stupefied for a moment when he saw Melissa's head covered in blood. Then, he snapped to his senses and pressed the call button for the doctor. "Get a doctor here right now!"…Angeline's injury was almost fully recovered, and she missed Yasmine and Xavier. Before getting off work, she called the old Lawson residence and told Sandy she would be back for dinner.She played with the children for a while before dinner. Then, she left them to watch a cartoon with Jessica keeping an eye on them. She headed to Robert's study.He wore a pa

Angeline lowered her gaze thoughtfully. Just then, Sally knocked on the door. "Mr. Lawson Senior, Ms. Angeline, dinner's served.""Let's eat first," Robert said. "I've yet to get back to Jeremy about this, so you can take some time to think things over. If you think it's feasible, we can start making preparations."You can head to the Hooper residence with me on Jeremy's birthday. But if you don't intend on going, I'll just bring the kids with me.""Alright." Angeline nodded and stood up.She took her seat at the dining table and took over from Sally to get food for the children. She'd just started peeling some shrimp for them when her phone rang. As she glanced at it, Sally handed her a warm towel.The call was from Nathaniel. Angeline wiped her hands before answering the call. "Hello?""Something's happened to the Scott family. Grace and Monica left the office in the same car today, and a drunk truck driver crashed into them as soon as they were out of the building. The

Lara: "I suspect Fabian's the one behind it. He did it to help Grace take Monica out! Monica opposes Grace at every step of the way, so he wants to get rid of her so that Grace has more power. It's too bad Grace and Monica were in the same car.Lara: "Or maybe he wants to kill them both and push the blame on me! Once Dad suspects me, Fabian can have his children brown-nose Dad and have him hand the company to them! That way, as their guardian, Fabian will be the ultimate victor!"Kieron: "And I thought my family drama was too much to handle. Your family's way worse!"Lara: "It's all because Grace was so blinded by her so-called love for Fabian and insisted on marrying him. God, the sight of him disgusts me."Kieron: "Angeline, where are you? Why haven't you said anything? What do you think about this?"Angeline didn't say anything. She wasn't a detective—what would she know? She couldn't possibly tell them she suspected Melissa was behind this.What would she say if they were to

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
