Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 266

Kim felt confused. He then heard the basement door open.

Out the door, a man in shiny boots came down the metal staircase. Kim slowly looked from the boots and up the trousers, then finally at his face.

Kim's eyes widened as he said in disbelief, "S-Sean?"

Everyone knew who Sean Lawson, the head of Lawson Global, was.

Sean was the man who led a company against Marvonia and united enterprises of all sizes for a joint venture in the lithography machines and microchips industry.

His fame and achievement weren't solely from his business but also from other aspects.

Brayden smiled at Sean, "As you've ordered, I didn't touch him. He's all yours."

Kim's eyes were suddenly clouded with fear as he cowered uncontrollably. He stared at Sean's chiseled face.

Even after 20 years, Kim still remembered the intimidating pressure from Sean's unconcerned stares. It reminded Kim of someone familiar.

"Wh-who are you?" Kim asked with a shaky voice.

"You could call me Sean."

Sean removed his suit jacket and placed it on the couch, then slowly opened a bottle of wine and poured himself a glass.

"Or, you could call me Shane—Shane Kingston."

"N-no, no! That's impossible!"

Brayden watched as Sean sat by the pool without looking at Kim, who was fighting for his life. He adjusted his necktie with his bandaged hand and unbuttoned two buttons on his tidy shirt.

As Sean saw Kim slowly stop struggling after a few times, he pulled Kim up by his hair to look at him.

Kim gasped for air as soon as he was out of the water. Although he was dizzy due to hypoxia, fear once again filled his eyes when he saw Sean's sculpted face.

"Now you know how we felt when our car was rammed off the bridge into the water, Uncle Kim."

Sean said slowly, "You've learned our habits. You knew my mom would make my dad and I put on our seatbelts even if we were sitting in the backseat.

"So, you tampered with them. It was so that when the car started sinking, we couldn't unbuckle our seatbelt, as water slowly filled us, compressing the air out of our lungs and taking away our consciousness."
