Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 263

"Hey, I'm not made of glass. A little splash won't hurt me," Angeline said before grabbing Lenny's arm to turn him around to examine his back.

"You don't have to worry about me this much."

Ned watched through the car window as Angeline carefully checked on Lenny while grabbing his arm. He clenched the cigarette and reached to open the car door. However, he stopped before pulling the handle.

Considering the evil things Ned had done to Angeline, how could he have the nerve to see her?

Angeline was a kind person. Yet, despite Ned taking a blow for Angeline, she didn't check up on him. It demonstrated the depth of her hate for him.

Moreover, Ned had promised Ingrid he wouldn't see Angeline for two months.

Although he felt the urge to chop Lenny's arm off, he couldn't face Angeline now.

Ned had made several mistakes. If he wanted to win Angeline back, at the very least, he had to break off his engagement with Ingrid. Then he could stand before Angeline as a clean, single man.

If he pursued Angeline before ending things with Ingrid, people might think of Angeline as his mistress.

Ned would never allow Angeline to endure such gossip.

Lenny removed his suit jacket and said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Emmerson. I shouldn't have brought you here. This puddle has been in this pothole for a while, but no one has come to fix it.

"It grows bigger and deeper as the days pass. It's hard to get rid of the water after it rains. Celia was splashed by it once before!"

Angeline looked down and noticed some mud on her leg. She ignored it and smiled.

"Let's go home! We'll head to the boxing gym tomorrow if I can wrap work up early. I want to test your skills. If they're any good, you can teach me. I'll pay you an additional salary."
