Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 999
Nathaniel wasn't even in charge of Lawson Global and Hooper Group's new project. Instead, it was Aurelia. But Nathaniel agreed to Angeline's request unexpectedly. "I'll try my best for Lawson Global!" Nathaniel said. "Shane will arrive at 3 pm tomorrow. I'll book for dinner at 7:30 pm in one of the restaurants I own. I remember you liked how they prepared their seasonal vegetables! Then, I'll pick you up from work before the dinner." After hanging up the phone, Angeline continued immersing herself in her work. Before Angeline finished her work, Taylor came in with some documents, saying Hooper Group suddenly compromised a little for the collaboration project, so they had to review the contract again. Angeline never expected Nathaniel to take her casual remark about offering a concession for the collaboration project seriously. "Yeah, I knew about this. Have the legal team review the contract, then sign it if there's no issue," Angeline said. "Sure!" Taylor replied before

The restaurant belonged to Nathaniel, and everyone knew he booked the private room to serve a special guest. Sandra was assigned to serve them because of her good looks and close relationship with the manager. She originally planned to show a good impression to Nathaniel, but she felt a little something when she saw Sean, believing that it was fate to let them meet each other here. The first time she saw him, she felt that he was either rich or noble. Now that Sean had appeared in the private room as Nathaniel's guest, Sandra confirmed he was a wealthy aristocrat. If she could strike up a conversation with Sean and make him remember the car accident with her mother, who knew if something might happen between them? But out of Sandra's expectations, Nathaniel requested to change her out. It was okay if she got changed, but if the manager found out she was striking up a conversation with the guest, she might get fired. Striking a conversation with the guest was the biggest tab

"Look, Ms. Sterling! He knows me! He's that man's assistant! It was Mr. Powell right here who handled my mother's compensation when she was in the car accident!" Sandra held Taylor's shirt tightly. "I didn't lie, and I have no ulterior motives!" Angeline turned around and looked at the teary-eyed Sandra before asking Taylor, "What's wrong?" "She's the daughter of the woman who was in the car accident with Mr. Lawson," Taylor said. "Mr. Lawson believed the accident implicated her mother. Plus, their family wasn't well-off, so he had me pay for their medical expenses and handled the compensation matters with the at-fault driver." Hearing this, Sandra looked at Aria. "See, Ms. Sterling! The Mr. Lawson that Mr. Powell mentioned is the man inside the private room! I wasn't striking a conversation with the guest!" As Aria hesitated, Taylor furrowed his brows and said, "Ms. Snowden, Mr. Lawson has passed away." Sanda was shocked. "T-That can't be! I saw him in the private room!"

Before Angeline could say anything, Sean continued, "How about you consider it before giving me an answer, Ms. Lawson?" Angeline's phone rang when Sean finished speaking. She looked at it, and it was a call from Eric. Angeline was about to hang up when Sean said, "Are you not going to answer it to see what they say, Ms. Lawson?" "Judging by the way you phrase it, is it related to you, Mr. Kingston?" Angeline didn't rush to answer Eric's phone call. Sean smiled. "Answer the phone first, Ms. Lawson. Then, we'll talk." Angeline answered the phone, "What's wrong?" "The witness turned against us," Eric said solemnly. "Luckily, we used an anonymous account to transfer him the money. But he showed the proof of transaction, saying someone bribed him." After hearing that, Angeline understood everything. She replied, "I'm aware of this. I'll get back to you." Angeline looked at Sean after hanging up the call. "Mr. Kingston, you came prepared, huh?" "I never fight uncertain batt

Angeline stared at Sean and said, "I don't think a meet-up is a great idea. But I can ask him if he's willing to have a phone call with you. And I'll be present during the whole call. "I just wish Mr. Kingston wouldn't use me or anything to do with me as a bargaining chip unless you want to be enemies with me." Sean understood what Angeline meant. Sean used his identity as Shane to discuss this matter with Angeline because he didn't want to be on the opposite end with her. Perhaps Sean might just be fooling himself with this method, but deep down, he really didn't want to be at odds with Angeline. "Of course, I don't want to be at odds with Ms. Lawson because of this matter. I'm sure you can see my sincerity through my visit this time." Sean's features appeared very gentle under the warm lights of the restaurant. He continued with a calm tone, "Do you mind contacting your friend now, Ms. Lawson? I'll be eternally grateful!" Nathaniel turned to look at Angeline, hesitating i

Without waiting for Thomas' reply, Sean continued, "I'm sorry that Melissa forcefully took your sister's heart. It's only right that you seek revenge for your sister. I believe any brother would do the same…""Enough of this pompous talk. I want to speak with you alone," Thomas said. Angeline creased her forehead. "Tom…" "I want to speak with him alone." Thomas insisted. Sean looked up at Angeline with a deep gaze and replied, "Sure!" After giving Thomas his contact information, Sean hung up his phone and told Angeline and Nathaniel, "Sorry. I'll be right back." "Mr. Kingston," Angeline called. Sean stopped as he was opening the door and turned to Angeline. Angeline turned to Sean, and their eyes met. She said with a stern look, "You'd better not try to threaten Thomas with dirty tactics. The scale of Kingston Empire, even together with Trustworth Group, is no match for Lawson Global and Vitality Biotech Group. "Thomas isn't just my friend. He also saved my son's life.

Angeline held the glass before her and gazed at Nathaniel. "No. I just don't want to lie to you." Nathaniel rubbed his chin. "If you don't want to lie to me, tell me. Am I one step closer to being your friend?" Angeline smiled and said nothing. Angeline kept looking at the door, her mind occupied by the phone call between Sean and Thomas.After 20 minutes, Sean returned to the private room. The food had already been served. Angeline looked at Sean as he sat opposite them and said, "I've reached an agreement with Thomas. Ms. Lawson, let's put an end to this matter. Thank you for helping me contact Thomas." Angeline nodded. "Of course, I have no issue if you two could come to an agreement. Since this is settled, you guys may continue with the dinner. I'll be leaving now." "I'll see you off!" Nathaniel stood up. "It's okay. I have to check on Thomas on my way back." Angeline glanced at Sean before leaving. Angeline called Thomas when she entered the car. "What did you dis

Although Thomas once agreed to Angeline that as long as she could help him get revenge through legal means and have Brian and Melissa paid for the sins they'd committed, he wouldn't take revenge by risking his life. Thomas was aware of Angeline's unwavering support and contributions over the years. She had even sacrificed her own marriage to save him. Hence, Thomas couldn't drag Angeline into this matter anymore. He already had his own plan. As long as Sean didn't interfere and Brian could be imprisoned, he had thousands of ways to make Brian die in prison. But right now, Thomas didn't want and couldn't drag Angeline down any further. Thomas could pretend to agree, then work hard at rehabilitation training. Once he had recovered enough to even half his former self, he could go to Keman alone and kill Brian again. After a long pause, Angeline let out a long sigh. "So, Shane didn't threaten you?" She recalled Eric's phone call earlier before she called Thomas. "He didn't.

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
