Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 145

Angeline's breathing quickened at Robert's suggestion.

She softly responded, "Okay."

After hanging up, joy crept into her eyes. Still, she carried the nervousness from her conversation with Robert.

"Mr. Lawson Senior said I could have dinner with Jessica tomorrow."

As soon as Angeline finished speaking, Sean's phone rang. It was a call from the Lawson family home. Robert's housekeeper, Sandy, informed him that Robert wished for him to attend dinner the next day.

"Alright, I understand. I'll be back on time tomorrow," Sean said before hanging up.

He gestured for Angeline to sit.

"I also need to return home for dinner tomorrow."

Angeline paused. Then, she slowly approached him.

"I'll remind Yasmine not to address anyone randomly."

"What do you intend for my daughter to address me as?" Sean countered.

"Mr. Lawson, if that's okay?" Angeline proposed.

Then, she regretted her words and bit her cheek.

Years had passed, but Sean felt that Angeline was still the same as he remembered. She was comfortable with anyone except him.

He thought that perhaps it was because she had conceived the children with him under the influence of drugs. He believed she had always felt guilty, especially about having the children call him "Mr. Lawson".

"Okay," Sean surprisingly agreed.

"Thank you," Angeline expressed her gratitude.

"Only then can we succeed... You can't leave!"

With a gentle tug, Sean brought her close.

"Have you been very concerned about Lawson Global and me these past years?"

Angeline remained silent.

"Angeline, I know you care about me," Sean stated with certainty.

Meanwhile, Yasmine woke up in the bedroom. She rubbed her eyes and didn't see Angeline around anywhere. She climbed from the bed, tiptoed to the door, and opened it.

"Mommy," Yasmine called out sleepily.

Her voice was soft and tender.
