All Chapters of Second Chances Don't Come Easy: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Sophie frowned after avoiding the things Mandy threw at her several times. There was clearly something wrong with Mandy. She was acting very weird. She tried to see if there were any signs of pretense on Mandy's face. But she saw that as Mandy was throwing stuff at them, she was also pulling at her own hair and clothes. She had a crazed expression on her face. If that was acting, then Mandy was a great actress.Mitchel also detected the irregularity in Mandy's emotions. He ignored the stuff that Mandy was throwing, got closer to her, and hugged her tightly."Don't be afraid. I'm here. I'm here.""Mitch?" Mandy froze for a moment, as if Mitchell's voice had granted her some clarity. But she quickly went back to her frenzy. She tried to shove Mitchell away with one hand and started to pull at her own hair with the other. "No. Don't look at me! I don't want you to see me like this! Get out! Get out now!""Don't be afraid. I—"Mitchell wanted to comfort her, but Mandy wasn't

It was like Mitchell didn't notice how stiff she was. He said naturally, "I'll head back with you.""But…"Sophie looked toward the ward. What about Mandy? Was he not going to stay with her?The questions ran through her mind, but she didn't dare to say them out loud. So, she nodded. "Okay."Perhaps she was just indulging in her own selfishness. It doesn't matter if he had forgotten or if there was some other reason. If he wasn't going to stay back with Mandy, she wasn't about to remind him to do so.With that thought, Sophie allowed Mitchell to drag her away. She even forgot about Xavier, who was standing next to them.As Xavier watched the two of them leave hand in hand, his expression darkened. There was a meaningful look in his eyes.Mitchell let go of Sophie's hand when they got to the parking lot. She was taken aback. She felt a sense of disappointment when he let go.As she stared at her palm in a daze, Mitchell said irritatedly, "Get in the car!"He was already in

Sophie took a deep breath and said, "I didn't know if you would have been able to take it if I had told you the truth. "Back then, your condition wasn't great, you know? Granny was very worried about you, and so was I.""And after that? You had many chances to tell me the truth for the past three years. Why didn't you tell me?""Because I had promised someone that I wouldn't tell you. Now, I've broken my promise. I don't want to keep it a secret from you anymore.""Who did you make a promise to?" Mitchell asked. But soon, he came up with the answer himself. "Granny?"Sophie kept quiet. But her silence was enough to tell him that he had guessed correctly. "Ha! What a good granddaughter-in-law you are." Mitchell scoffed. "So, who was the one who gave you the honey tea? Was it her too?""N-No." Seeing that he was getting the wrong idea, Sophie quickly explained, "That had nothing to do with Granny. She only found out after the incident.""If it wasn't her, then who else could it

Mandy was shocked and whipped around instantly. "Why are you here?" she exclaimed in surprise."Of course it's because I've missed you." The man, James Hart, walked up to Mandy, picked up a strand of her hair, and twirled it around his finger. "What? Don't you miss me too?"Mandy's expression shifted subtly, and she tensed up all over. "Get lost!" she shouted furiously."Ha! Do you really want me to get lost?" James' eyes turned cold, and the smile faded from his face. Suddenly, he exuded a dangerous, chilly air. Mandy shuddered and bit her lip, not saying a word. James released the strand of hair around his finger and turned to leave without any hesitation.When Mandy saw him walking toward the door, she couldn't control herself and shouted, "Stand right there!"James turned around and faced her once more. However, he didn't walk toward her. Instead, leaning his back against the door, he asked, "Why should I?"Mandy's expression soured as she sank her teeth into her lowe

Sophie had wanted to hear what Mitchell had to say, but he didn't carry on after quite some time, so she slipped off into a deep slumber. When she woke up again, it was already the next morning. As she recalled what she had heard the night before, she quickly turned around to look beside her. However, all that was left was an empty space. There was no one there anymore. Could she have been dreaming? Sophie couldn't help but feel dejected. But just as she pulled the covers off and pushed herself to get out of bed, she felt the warmth in the space beside her.Clearly, someone had slept there and had just left not too long ago. Had Mitchell really slept there last night?That thought swept all the dejection out of Sophie, and she quickly freshened up before heading downstairs. Harold and the rest of the household staff had resumed their work as usual. When Harold saw her coming down the stairs, he smiled and greeted her, "Good morning, Ms. Sophie.""Morning," Sophie repli
