All Chapters of Second Chance at Love: From Divorcee to the Billionaire's Bride: Chapter 711 - Chapter 720

I often need to water, weed, and fertilize the plants. Many of the flowers my mom had brought back from her travels require different levels of humidity and temperature. When she used to talk to me about these things, I never really paid attention.At first, I ended up killing several orchids. Seeing the withered flowers, I cried my heart out. Determined to take better care of them, I started reading through the notes my mom had left behind and researched more about plant care. Now, I’ve gotten the hang of it.As I tended to the flowers, Doggo tugged at my pant leg, trying to get closer to the plants. Each time he made a move, I gently stopped him, explaining how precious these plants were to me and that he shouldn’t harm them.In my soft, rambling way, it seemed like Doggo finally understood the importance of the flowers. He would occasionally tap a leaf with his paw but quickly pull it back the moment I looked his way, giving me that mischievous look that reminded me of how he wou

As soon as I got home, I received a call from Wendy.She sounded excited. "Lately, Mrs. Walker has been keeping a tight watch on Landon, practically following him everywhere! She’s terrified he’ll sneak off to see his mistress. Luke really knows how to play the game!""If his heart's not with her anymore, keeping him around won’t change anything," I replied. In marriages tied by interests, turning a blind eye is often the best way to coexist.“Landon hasn’t had many public scandals, and Mrs. Walker has always maintained this image of a loving marriage. She’s desperate not to be a laughingstock in the socialite circle, so she’s holding onto this to save face. Let's see if she dares stay in Johnsonville as long as she used to now!”“That lesson will stick with her for a while.”It would be better if she never came back to Johnsonville at all."Jen..." Wendy's voice softened as if she had more to say.I hummed lightly, waiting for her to continue.“While Mrs. Walker is distracted,

It’s unsettling how well Emily knows my preferences—ones I rarely ever share with anyone.After dropping off the Stewart family at Jacob’s place, Emily enthusiastically invited Penelope and me to stay for lunch. We politely declined.On the ride back, Penelope looked exhausted.“Have you not been resting well?” I asked with concern.“The way they treat me makes me feel pressured,” she admitted, looking down as she nervously fidgeted with her fingers. “I hate feeling like I’m being manipulated. I plan to distance myself from them. I hope they’ll eventually understand that I only see Jacob as a friend.”The Stewarts clearly favor Penelope. Now that her uncle, aunt, and cousin have all passed away, they’ll be even more determined not to let her slip away. I had my own suspicions but didn’t want to alarm her, so I simply nodded.Just then, Penelope’s phone rang—it was Jethro’s manager.“Jethro was spotted by the media visiting his ex-girlfriend at the hospital. What should I do?” th

With her newfound determination, the exhaustion and weariness in Penelope’s face disappeared. I gave her a thumbs up as we sat down for lunch, and she mentioned that she would soon start looking for the right agent.Poking at the grilled fish on her plate with her chopsticks, Penelope said, “Jen, I think I’ve found someone.”“Do I know them?”“George Halter.”“That name rings a bell, but I can’t quite place it,” I admitted, trying to recall.“You reached out to him when my mother and brother passed away.”Ah, that’s who he was! The agent who helped to relay the message to Penelope!“And why did you choose him?” I asked, curious.“All his clients are either rookies or struggling actors who haven’t made a name for themselves after years in the industry.”“If he can’t make his clients successful, that means he probably doesn’t have strong connections or resources.”“He may lack resources, but I have them!” Penelope’s confident response made everything clear.As Jethro’s girlfri

Concerned that Mrs. Stewart might do something rash, I texted George, asking him to keep an eye on Penelope. In Hollywood, some actresses have gained attention by claiming to date popular male stars, using it as a springboard to fame.Recently, Penelope had guest-starred on a few TV shows and had a minor role in a short film. Sharp-eyed fans had already guessed she was trying to break into showbiz, with some protesting online. Some even flooded Jethro's social media, accusing him of being her ticket to stardom. However, Jethro, preoccupied with his ex-girlfriend, had stayed silent on the matter.George, unaware of Mrs. Stewart's schemes, thought I was worried about potential fan backlash. He assured me repeatedly that he'd keep Penelope safe.After work, I willingly accepted a ride home with Luke. In the car, Luke leaned back casually in the back seat, glancing at me. "Well, this is a rare sight."I buckled up. "Not happy to see me, Mr. Walker?""Of course he is!" Peter, the drive
