Semua Bab Second Marriage to Mr. Rich: Bab 461 - Bab 470

"How do you know I'm obsessed with you if you don't give me a chance?" Jesse asked in urgency. "You might still be recovering from your relationship with Ned, but trust me! Just give me three months. If you think we're not for each other, I'll give up on you then." At the sight of Angeline's unchanged expression and sensing she was about to speak, Jesse quickly interrupted, "One month! Just one month is enough! Even if I'm not the one, Mr. Lawson Senior will still arrange another man for you. I'm sure they'll waste your time, and you'll meet them half-heartedly."Trust me, Angie. We can remain friends for a month, and I won't cross the line. That's all I want." "I'm sorry, Mr. Zinn. But I already have someone I like. It's just that Granddad doesn't want me to be with him, so he arranged our blind date today. I'm so sorry for wasting your time," Angeline said. "But are you two officially dating? If you haven't made it public, you're not officially together. Why not just give me

"There's something I need to do tonight," Sean said calmly. Even if Angeline was thick-skinned, Sean's stern reply still saddened her. She awkwardly nodded and returned to her table. Jesse smiled at Angeline. "What a coincidence! I didn't expect to see Mr. Lawson here." Angeline pressed her lips without a reply. Jesse remembered that both Sean and Angeline had been adopted by Robert and assumed Angeline was nervous because her family had caught her seeing a man. "Mr. Lawson is considered your uncle, isn't he?" "Yeah," Angeline replied before sipping her wine. "I've told him about our blind date set up by Mr. Lawson Senior. So don't worry about it," Jesse said with a smile. "Mr. Lawson mentioned you founded Vitality Biotech Group because you enjoy academic research. There should be a lot we can talk about." "Is that so?" Angeline finally smiled. "Who would've thought my uncle knows a lot about me." Jesse felt delighted after seeing Angeline's smile. He asked,

Angeline bit her lips. "Ms. Angeline, please be considerate of Mr. Lawson Senior," Asher said. "This is already his mildest means! You can not date the men, but you must go on the blind dates. You really shouldn't force Mr. Lawson Senior to take drastic actions. Not only will it be bad for you and Sean, but it may also affect your relationship with Mr. Lawson Senior. "Besides, angering Mr. Lawson Senior may affect his health too. You've seen his medical report. It's best if he isn't angered anymore." Angeline felt defeated and lay back on the couch. She covered her eyes with the back of her hand to obstruct the lights from her view. Asher understood Robert the most. Naturally, he would know what Robert was plotting. Regardless of whether these blind dates could increase the friction between Angeline and Sean, they could take up most of Angeline's time. After all, Robert knew how busy the work at Lawson Global was. If Sean wasn't in a meeting or on a business trip, then he

"Oh, okay…" Angeline gripped the steering wheel. "Sorry to bother you. I'm hanging up." But before Angeline could end the call, Sean asked, "Why are you calling me with Lucy's phone?" "I left my phone at home," Angeline answered. "It's fine. I'm heading back now." "Are you alone?" Sean's eyebrows furrowed. He recalled Angeline had a lot to drink at the restaurant earlier that day. Before Angeline could answer, Sean continued, "I won't be home tonight. You can spend the night in the manor." "It's fine. Don't bother."Angeline sounded hoarse. "I'm hanging up now." She returned the phone and thanked Lucy after hanging up. She drove out of the neighborhood and stopped by the side of the road. She noticed a lit convenience store with a poster stating, "Facial recognition payment system available". So Angeline exited the car and bought a bottle of cold water. She left the convenience store and drank the water at the entrance. She was contemplating if she should par

Angeline tried to catch her breath with her eyes closed. She stopped kissing Sean and leaned her forehead against his. Her hand and icy fingers, which were cradling Sean's head, slowly and weakly fell onto his shoulder. She tried to suppress her tears but couldn't stop her body from trembling. Amidst the darkness, Angeline stopped constraining Sean. She didn't even open her eyes to look at him. Even though they were kissing and Angeline was sitting on Sean's lap with their bodies close to one another, she couldn't sense Sean's usual passion. His cold demeanor sent shivers down her spine. After a moment of silence, Angeline said hoarsely, "Are you giving me the silent treatment?" "Silent treatment?" Sean chuckled. He stood up while holding Angeline's waist and separated himself from her with his hands on her shoulders. "You told me to control myself like I used to, yet you're unhappy with it. So, tell me what you want, Angeline?" Sean's deep-set eyes showed a bit of drun
