Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 123

"Let's go get some food!" Sean said.

Gregory squeezed through the crowd, planning to go with Angeline. But he saw her walking away with another man.

Gregory's forehead creased. He thought to himself, "Who is that man?"

After dinner, Sean invited Angeline to the hotel where he was staying.

Sean said, "I'm on a tight schedule for this visit. I'm sorry you'll have to bear with my schedule. We'll have to get everything for the marriage registration ready by tonight, and we'll have to leave first thing tomorrow morning."

Angeline couldn't decline Sean's offer after hearing his reasons.

Tanisha volunteered to bring Angeline's toiletries over from her hotel. Then she called a cab back to her hotel.

The hotel Sean was staying at was close to the restaurant.

Sean smiled after seeing Angeline trying to catch the snowflakes at the restaurant entrance. "Since the road wasn't covered in snow, how about we walk to the hotel?"

"Sure!" Angeline's eyes twinkled.

Sean took the umbrella from Taylor and walked down the restaurant stairs while holding Angeline's shoulder.

Angeline clenched her fist slightly. She felt strange about being this close with Sean.

"Are you leaving after the registration?" Angeline asked to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"Yeah. But I'll revisit you soon," Sean replied softly.

Angeline smiled while staring at the snow falling outside the umbrella. "It should be getting warm back in our country right now, shouldn't it?"

As she was talking, she saw Ned standing not far away with his hands in his pocket.

Ned, who had just bought a flower bouquet, turned around and drew his eyebrows together as he noticed Angeline and Sean.

Angeline's smile faded, but she and Sean continued walking forward without stopping.

Sean then held Angeline's hand and entered the flower shop. He asked the florist to prepare him a bouquet of sunflowers.

Angeline tugged Sean's arm when he was taking out his wallet. "You don't have to."

Sean smiled. "I remember your favorite flower is sunflower, isn't it?"

Angeline was surprised and thought, "How… did he know?"

The young, pretty florist swiftly packed the bouquet of sunflowers and gave it to Angeline. She said, "Your boyfriend is so handsome! You're both a perfect match!"

Angeline was about to explain while she took the bouquet, but she remembered she would be registering with Sean the next day. Instead, she smiled and replied, "Thanks."

Ned stood and stared at Angeline in the flower shop. He held his head as he felt a sting in his brain.

He stared at the sunflowers in his hand in confusion. Why did he absent-mindedly tell the florist he wanted sunflowers?
