Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 142

Ned was afraid. He was afraid of recalling the past Angeline that was often mentioned in front of him. He was hesitant to learn he had once loved Angeline so profoundly that he would have given up his life for her. He wondered what all his actions after Angeline woke up would have amounted to.

In the airport parking lot, Angeline took the car keys from the driver. By then, Sean had already placed Yasmine in the safety seat and fastened her seatbelt.

Yasmine blinked her big eyes with long eyelashes at Sean.

She asked quietly, "Daddy, why does Mommy want me to call you Mr. Lawson? Did you make Mommy angry? Mommy is easy to appease. My brother taught me when I make Mommy angry, I should do this..."

Yasmine took Sean's index and little finger. She placed her chubby, fair little face against them.

"Just rub like this, and Mommy won't be angry anymore," Yasmine instructed Sean softly.

Sean's eyes turned red as he looked at the gentle and soft Yasmine before him. He controlled his emotions and gently rubbed her head.

"Okay, I understand."

Seeing Sean take her advice, Yasmine yawned and rubbed her eyes with her tiny hands.

Sean didn't recall anyone telling him that he and Angeline's children were still alive. He'd thought he'd lost them in the incident four years ago.

At first, he assumed Angeline couldn't accept the loss of their children and had adopted a child.

Now, he was sure Yasmine was their daughter.

Sean's long, distinct fingers gently pinched Yasmine's cheek.

"You're tired, huh? Go ahead and take a nap..."

"I'll drive," Angeline offered to Sean.

"I'll do it," Sean responded as he closed the car's rear door.

He took the keys from Angeline's hand.

"Take a rest. I have a lot to ask you..."
