Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher) novel Chapter 156

Ned was unsure of himself. He didn't know how he'd handle his relationship with Angeline if he learned that the girl was his daughter.

"Right, I'll visit you in Cloudsville tomorrow before heading back to Oceanford," Angeline said, laughing as she spoke on the phone with James.

"I'll go straight to the lab, okay?"

"Great!" James responded cheerfully.

"I won't tell them. You can give them a big surprise. Tomorrow is the alumni exchange meeting at Cloudsville College. Many scholars who graduated from Cloudsville College will be back. I'll introduce you. You might find their help useful later on!"

Angeline smiled warmly at the thought of her seniors like Reese, Marion, and Alva.

"These years, it's because of your help and Professor Sharpe's that Vitality Biotech has reached its current state. James... Thank you."

Angeline sincerely gave her thanks.

"What's with the formalities? We put in the effort, but you've rewarded us generously!"

James laughed.

"The anonymous donation to our lab these past few years—that was you, wasn't it? And didn't you also provide the unique scholarship for the biology department of Cloudsville College?"

In addition to that, Angeline had also sponsored many children from impoverished rural areas over the years. She hoped they could leave their villages, study well, and become valuable members of society.

"I'm just doing what I should," Angeline said with a smile.

"Enough said. Come early tomorrow! I'll be waiting for you in the lab," James chirped.

After ending the call, Angeline's mobile vibrated with another incoming one.

The waiter blocked the elevator doors from closing, inviting Angeline to enter first.

Ned locked his phone screen and moved to the side upon seeing Angeline.

When he noticed the man's coat over Angeline's arm, he clenched his phone and greeted her casually, "Are you here to pick up your husband?"

Angeline responded noncommittally and entered the elevator.

Ned exited on the third floor and watched the waiter lead Angeline toward the VIP room. His fists tightened as he turned and headed to another room.

Although Ned was curious about Angeline's husband, it was not the right time to learn of his identity.

The Fletcher family wanted to partner with Vitality Biotech. First, they needed to finalize talks with the head of the Lonla region. Ned couldn't meet with the head of Vitality Biotech's Lonla branch, so he had to invite the head's secretary to Clapham Club to see if he could gather any helpful information.
