Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 949
"Alright!" Charlotte answered Wanda with a nod.She was about to leave to take care of it when Ingrid grabbed her and said, "Wait…"Her lips were trembling as if she wanted to say something.Wanda, feeling overwhelmed, urged, "We can't wait anymore! If Ms. Lawson releases a statement before us, you'll be finished—"Before she could finish speaking, her phone rang. It was a call from Ned. She knew he was calling to demand an explanation.She signaled Charlotte to proceed and immediately answered the call, "Hello, Mr. Fletcher.""Was that the script you gave Linda? To throw Angeline under the bus?" he questioned.Ned's voice filled with uncontained anger as if he was ready to tear someone apart.Wanda quickly explained, "We had instructed Linda to speak the truth. We had no idea she would suddenly say those things on the livestream. I just asked Ingrid if she had offended Linda before, thinking she might have done this on purpose to mess with her on the show."With a hand on her

RichieRich: "The former manager is testing the waters to see if there would be any backlash. If nothing happened and Ms. Lawson couldn't provide any evidence, then Ingrid would hold a press conference in the afternoon to say that Linda initially made a mistake and signed the contract on her behalf."At the time, Ingrid wasn't very popular and couldn't afford the fee for breaching the contract, so she negotiated with Ms. Lawson, who was supposed to take the money and promise never to reveal the truth. It was as if she had sold that favor to Ingrid."That's how this whole misunderstanding continued! But who knew Mr. Hooper would have a recording when Ms. Lawson had no evidence? Later in the afternoon, Ingrid will shift all the blame onto the former manager, claiming she didn't know why the manager said what she said."I believe things will play out as I expected. Everyone, just wait and see!"ICanFight: "I have to say, I suspect the person above is right! Then, they will probably sho

Wanda remained silent for a long while before she finally spoke. It seemed like she had made up her mind after much contemplation.Looking up at Ingrid, she said, "There's another way…""What is it?" Ingrid asked with her head raised, her eyes filled with tears."Get Mr. Fletcher to come forward and explain what really happened back then—that you wanted to come clean, but he and Linda insisted on covering it up."Wanda stood up and walked over to Ingrid, saying, "While Mr. Fletcher still feels guilty toward you, you can use that to your advantage! You can also push all the blame on Linda."After all, she lied first, and we don't know her motives. Lawson Global has already announced they will definitely sue her anyway!""But this—"Before Ingrid could finish, Wanda raised her hand to stop her and continued, "I listened to the recording of Mr. Fletcher and Mr. Hooper's conversation. "We can absolutely steer it in this direction, even embellish it a little. Talk about your strugg

Ingrid bit her lip as she fixed her gaze on the phone on the table. She didn't have much time left.After seeing how Ingrid was crying while staring at her phone, Charlotte took out her phone in a moment of determination. She had just launched her contact list when Wanda stopped her."You can't make the call! Only Ingrid can do it for herself. None of us can make decisions for her. She's in this mess now because Linda made the wrong decision for her back then. Do you want to repeat the same mistake?"Wanda saw through Ingrid's intention to shift all the blame onto Linda, but she didn't say it out loud.She had known Ingrid for some time now and knew that the latter always pretended to be undecided when, in reality, she had already made up her mind.Ingrid had always found ways to absolve herself and let others take the risks for her. Wanda felt Linda was too good for Ingrid back then. Linda had done all the dirty work for Ingrid and ended up in such a miserable situation.Wanda c

Angeline hadn't even eaten lunch. She had just finished a meeting.As soon as Nathaniel's call went through, he hurriedly apologized. He admitted that posting the recording online was a rash decision made in the heat of the moment, and he hadn't consulted her beforehand.He only called her after the post was already on Twitter. Since she hadn't answered his calls, he assumed she was angry and confessed that he couldn't resist uploading the recording."It's okay. I was in a meeting, and my phone was on mute, so I didn't notice. The recording is already up, and Ingrid's former manager slandered me first. I believe Simon will understand," Angeline said."As long as you're not mad. I was worried that my grandfather might break my legs if you were suddenly upset with me with our engagement just around the corner," said Nathaniel, patting his chest.He was slightly exaggerating, but he knew he wouldn't fare well with his grandfather if that had happened.Angeline chuckled softly and sa

Ned's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed and pursed his lips.Almost instinctively, he defended Angeline, saying, "Angeline didn't save Simon to be repaid. That's why she didn't leave any information behind at the time. "She said she wouldn't seek Simon out to tell him she was his savior but suggested that Ingrid, the beneficiary, tell him the truth. This way, both parties' losses would be minimized."Unfortunately, I trusted what Ms. Davis said back then, believing that Ingrid was already in contact with international directors through the Norwalk Corporation. If she lost that opportunity, she'd be sidelined."Furthermore, the fact that Norwalk Corporation chose her as their spokesperson because she was Simon's savior was widely publicized then. "If the public were to find out that my ex-wife was the true savior, Ingrid would be tossed into the spotlight again, and the old accusations of her being a homewrecker would resurface, destroying her future!"He sighed and continued,

Ingrid quickly responded, "It's not like that! Ultimately, it was my decision. I didn't stick to my own convictions and wavered. This is all my fault."I can't shirk this responsibility, so I must apologize to Angie and the fans who have always supported me. I didn't set a good example for them."Another reporter raised his hand and asked, "Ms. Dalton, were you aware that Mr. Fletcher was married to Ms. Lawson when you were with him while she was in her coma?"Are you indeed the third party who interfered in their marriage, as previously revealed by netizens? Or do you believe in the saying that the one who is not loved is the third party, thus disregarding our country's marriage laws?"The question was extremely sharp.Ingrid's face turned ashen, and she found herself at a loss for words. Her tears fell uncontrollably. She was well aware that her comments from back then had been dug up by others. She figured that denying it now would only make her situation worse.Through her te

Wanda's other concern was whether the broadcasting companies might classify Ingrid as a disreputable artist. If that happened, her career would be effectively over.Wanda had placed too much hope in this press conference, thinking that Ned's presence would divert the reporters' attention toward him. She hadn't anticipated that he would refuse to engage with the reporters and storm out instead.Wanda still didn't fully understand Ned's personality. He had never been an easy person to deal with. As a pampered son of a wealthy family, he had always been difficult. He would only show his softer side to those he loved.Because of his guilt toward Ingrid, he had already appeared more approachable toward her. Moreover, the reporter's question earlier had hit a nerve with Ned. This man, who had gotten away with all sorts of misdeeds in Oceanford, was not someone who would sit politely and answer those questions.Wanda supported Ingrid and walked her back to the hotel lounge from where th

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
