Unsure if it was because of the fever, Sean couldn't control himself. His kiss was extremely assertive and aggressive. It was unlike before when he would kiss Angeline in different ways until she couldn't resist anymore and went weak before he became more aggressive. This time, his kiss was direct and aggressive. He was sucking all the air from her, almost causing her to suffocate and faint. Angeline had never experienced such an intense kiss since the last time she and Sean had separated. Amidst the chaotic breathing, Angeline raised her head to accept Sean's kiss. She no longer had the strength to handle his advances. She unconsciously sank her nails into her back. Angeline woke up the next day from shortness of breath. Sean, who was lying down and facing her, was slowly pecking on her lips while pinching her chin. Noticing that Angeline was awake, he slipped his tongue into her mouth without hesitation as he wrapped his sturdy arm around her waist and pulled her tightly in

"Anyway, I'll find a way, so you don't need to worry."Sean didn't want to put Angeline in a difficult position."I'll persuade Mr. Lawson Senior. What I mean is… I'll divorce Melissa soon. Of course, we'll find an appropriate time to announce it publicly. Then, after things calm down for a while, we can be together again. We can keep a low profile until we get discovered. What do you think?""You handle things with Melissa first. Even if we have to remain in a secret marriage for the rest of our lives, I wouldn't mind. After all, life is for us to live, and everything else is just for others to see."Angeline wasn't just pretending to be magnanimous.When he had his car accident, she had persuaded him to take that opportunity to return as Shane, and she had already prepared herself for this outcome.He squeezed her hand and kissed it. Although he didn't say anything, he felt that the luckiest thing in his life was winning her love."But regarding Tom, I want you to be honest wi

"Mr. Millstone's handling Lucy's salary. If he finds out that you're eating at my place and paying her, he'll report it to my grandfather, and I'll be the one getting scolded," said Angeline as she sat down at the dining table too."If you want to eat the dishes made by Lucy, I can ask her to cook for you downstairs.""Sure! Then you can join me for meals downstairs. It's more lively with two people anyway," said Nathaniel with a smile.Then, he added, "By the way, Kieron is likely to announce his engagement to Lara soon.""I've heard rumors about their engagement, but it's been delayed for so long. Why the sudden decision?" she asked, surprised."They both got drunk. When they woke up, they found themselves in bed together, unclothed. Neither of them could explain what happened. Someone saw them and reported it to their families. This incident was likely the reason the engagement was pushed forward," he said with a smile."Kieron was quite frustrated when he called me. He was st

Seeing Sean was about to speak, Angeline interrupted, "Before you confirm the truth, don't reveal our relationship to Melissa or your aunt. I don't mind, but I'm concerned about the children's safety."It had only been less than a year since Monica's accident. Lara, the eldest daughter of the Scotts, had also withdrawn from the succession battle because of that car crash. She had been having a difficult time since then, being suspected by her whole family.Regardless of the situation, Angeline believed that Melissa had a touch of madness. Since Sean was protecting her and she couldn't be touched, it was best not to let her know."Okay," Sean agreed. "I'll settle Melissa down and then make a trip to Keman. I'll be back soon.""Are you planning to shift the focus of Kingston Empire back to the country?" she asked."Yes," he replied with a smile. "You and the kids won't follow me abroad, so I have to find a way to return."Besides, Sean felt a sense of duty to Robert, who had rais

Melissa was curled up in the hanging chair on the balcony like a ball, looking wilted and drained, likely due to not eating since last night until now.The nanny specifically assigned to care for her squatted nearby, softly coaxing her to eat something. When Sean pushed open the door and entered, she quickly stood up."Mr. Kingston…"Upon hearing this, Melissa immediately turned her head toward the door. When she saw him, her large eyes filled with tears, and she choked up, "Shane!"Sean walked up to her, looked at the oatmeal brought by the nanny, and asked, "Why aren't you eating?""If you don't come, I won't eat! I'll starve myself!" she said, as willful as she was in her childhood. "You promised me that you'd always eat with me from now on, but you lied."If you go on a business trip, I'll go with you. If you don't take me, I'll starve!" Her voice carried a childish determination."Melissa," Sean sighed softly and watched tears roll down her cheeks. Eventually, he said, "L
