All Chapters of Second chance at happiness: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

She regained composure and sat up straight in a few mins. Almera pressed her hand as she saw her despair. Mira smiled to gesture that she was okay. A stout man dressed in rich silk and pot belly walked to the front with a haughty expression. “I can bet anything that this is not his work.” Almera whispered “This is the second lord of Soren. Not a single good root in the lot.” Mira looked at Almera in confusion. “They must have commissioned someone from overseas to do the work.” Almera shrugged “That is not against the rules.” Mira nodded in understanding. Lord Soren walked with his entry with a smug smile. He too had chosen royal red velvet cloth. He had embroidered a beautiful peacock in the centre with feathers cascading throughout the robe. It was definitely a beautiful piece. “Tell me about your design.” “Beauty…. Beauty and beauty” Lord Soren laughed happily thinking his answer was witty. “Why did you choose this concept?” One of the judges who was irritated with his smug

The crowd started chanting their favorite works… it was divided …. There were also those fawning on Lord Sween. “Number ….” The royal messenger paused again with a cheeky chuckle. The crowd held their breath as they waited…. “Number 555- Mira Jackson urf Lady Mira Marsden” Mira stared with misty eyes… she turned around to look at Jack. He gestured a flying kiss to encourage her while Almera kept nudging her to get up. Old master Slegh sat like he lost his soul; the two young masters were not much better, only Caster sat there like an infatuated fool. “Marsden…. Marsden…. Yes… Marsden….” Lord Dulston shouted excitedly…. But the crowd was too loud for anyone other than his sons to hear. “Dad???” “That’s the bastard who married my sister…my Bella…. Your aunt.” Lord Dulston was too excited for words “That…. That …is little Bella.” The Dulston brothers including Aldrin stared skeptically at their father. Cyrus thought his sons didn’t believe him and explained “Well, your aunt marrie

Orseus ordered with a solemn expression “You shall return their papers of servitude to them tomorrow." "The court guards will bear witness to this exchange; they shall continue to reside in their current residence to the very moment of exchange.” Orseus continued to state the rules. He was smart enough to guess that there must have been a reason for Mira to use her precious favor to request freedom when she could easily buy it with her prize money. He took care of the request with sincerity removing all possible obstacles for her as he knew his mother liked the person in front of him and their relationship with Thomas. Old master Slegh and his sons bowed to acknowledge. John couldn’t believe his ears. He never even for a second thought he would see the day when he was a freeman again. He hugged Beth overwhelmed with emotion as she wiped her tears that were fiercely streaming down her cheeks. They looked at Jack through misted eyes. Jack shrugged; he couldn’t take credit for this. O

Orseus raised his eyebrows as he looked towards Thomas, trying to restrain the smirk spreading from his lips as he saw the blatant expression of love from the lovebirds in front of him. This was torture to a single man like him. His sworn brother had no intention of reciprocating his sentiments. Orseus turned his attention to the only two single dogs in the crowd and his lips curled up. Martin was rolling his eyes while Oden had a smirk…. They understood! “The person I used to like …... before my marriage…” Mira’s voice was barely audible, a whisper; She didn’t raise her head… she was too embarrassed, but she had to voice this concern as she felt it was a vital clue to the mystery. “That person was with me to find out where the seal of the Zumerong’s was kept. He has asked me about it in a roundabout way many times. Luckily for me and sadly for him, I didn’t know much about this until recently.” Cornelius rubbed his forehead as analyzed all the information he had just received and s

The Dulston’s stood outside the palace waiting for Mira and group to come out for a long time. “Dad why don’t we go home now and see Mira in the morning?” First brother asked with a conflicted expression; he couldn’t bear to his father’s anxious expression. He was also worried that Mira might not like them once she knew who they were. He didn’t want his father’s enthusiasm to be met with disappointment. “How will we….” “Aldrin knows the way. He has been there several times.” First brother, Albert, knew what his father wanted to ask. “Really??” Lord Dulston was not convinced; he knitted his brows “Why?” “Must be to eat delicious food.” Third brother, Alwyn chuckled. “We are business partners.” Aldrin decided to ignore third brother and spoke in a serious tone. He would never admit third brother was right. “What business?” Lord Dulston was even more confused. “He would eat all the dishes served to him.” Third brother kept mucking around. “Mira’s husband makes the slate stand for
