Second Marriage to Mr. Rich Chapter 14
Ned's post was flooded with comments. Most of them were shocked, while some of them suspected something fishy going on.Some comments called Ned a huge jerk for spreading Angeline's nudes online. They even encouraged Angeline to sue him.There were also people commenting who heard about Ned's and Angeline's past. They said that this was just Ned's way of trying to save some of Angeline's dignity for the sake of their past relationship.Some other people asked Ned what he was going to do about Angeline's nudes that had already been leaked online. Many male students had the photos saved on their devices, with some even reposting the photos to other platforms.The silver lining was that the incident was barely one week old, meaning that it hadn't gone that viral before Ned's public apology came out.Angeline sincerely hoped that the scandal would soon blow over.As she was going to leave tomorrow, Angeline didn't unpack her stuff from her suitcase. She only took out her pajamas and

The next time Sean met Angeline, he was 17 years old, and she was 12.Angeline had been stabbed twice because she wanted to save Ned. She lay on the hospital bed and refused the Lawsons' help once again.She was a scrawny kid back then. She told them calmly and seriously, "Outcasts should stay out of other people's lives. We should just do whatever is necessary so that we won't harbor expectations of anyone else. So, please don't interfere with my life. This is for the Lawsons … and you."Sean had felt that it was unfair to her back then, but Angeline's calm reply made him come back to his senses.That was when he went behind the Lawsons' backs and told the Fletchers that if they brought Angeline up in the guise of repaying her for the favor, the Lawsons would continue supporting them.This was the only time that Sean had ever interfered in Angeline's business.It was also then that Sean started paying a little more attention to this girl who was focused on just "doing whatever w

Anne's side profile moved in and out of the screen. It had been circled in red, perhaps to make it easier for people to detect her.In the video, Anne's sweaty face was filled with anxiety and fear from the crowd of people pressing against her. Then, she seemed to look in Ned's direction and call out his name. After that, she tried to move forward through the crowd with difficulty.When her face was close enough to show up clearly in the video, she was suddenly shoved forward, knocking against Ned's arm, which was wrapped protectively around Ingrid. Ingrid lost her balance because of the heels she wore.As everyone screamed, Ned and Ingrid rolled down the staircase. Ned's arm was still wrapped protectively around Ingrid.The viral video ended there. It was obvious that someone had pushed Anne.When Zachary saw Angeline insisted on seeing Anne, he turned the car around and made a beeline for the police station. He waited for her there.When he saw her get out of the cab, he straig

It was only when the 14-year-old girl Anne had adopted last year had seen videos of Ned announcing his love for Ingrid that Anne found out about Ned losing his memories.She'd also learned that the people around Ned hadn't dared to mention Angeline's name to him during the two years Angeline was comatose. They'd even burned all photos of her.Anne wasn't educated. It wasn't easy for her to come to Oceanford; all she wanted to do was bring a photo of Ned and Angeline together so she could help Angeline. She would never think of harming anyone, though."I know, Anne," Angeline said soothingly. "Don't be scared, okay? The police won't accuse you of something you haven't done. I'll head to the hospital to check on how Ingrid's doing. Then, I'll think of a way to get you out.""Have I caused trouble for you, Angie?" Anne sobbed. "I'm sorry! I only wanted to help. I didn't expect to cause trouble for you! I was afraid of the Emmersons harming you and finding your mother. I always make a

"They're fine, so don't worry." Vanessa's pregnant belly was prominent underneath her white coat. Her smile was as gentle as always. "Ned protected Ms. Dalton well, so she only had a dislocated ankle. It's already been tended to. Ned's also only been bruised and scratched in a few places."Angeline was relieved to hear that. As long as Ned and Ingrid weren't badly injured, Anne could probably be released soon."Dr. Stone, we've received a call from the ER. They need you there," a nurse popped her head out of the elevator and called out to Vanessa urgently.Angeline moved aside to make way for Vanessa. "You should go, Vanessa.""Alright." Vanessa put her stethoscope into the pocket of her coat. "It's late, so be careful when you head home. Text me when you arrive."Angeline nodded. After leaving the building, she sat in the dimly lit garden. She looked down at her phone and punched in a number she'd memorized. But she hesitated before calling it.As Zachary had said, the current N

Ned's frown deepened at Tommy's words. He flicked his cigarette, looking impatient."If not for you plastering Angeline's photos all over Oceanford College to threaten Ingrid not to leave without a word, we probably wouldn't be able to find her now," Tommy said.The tree leaves rustled in the night breeze. Some loose strands of Angeline's hair fluttered as well, blocking her vision. It was hard to discern the look in her eyes.Angeline clutched her phone tightly. Her eyes burned with unshed tears. So, that was why Ned had plastered photos of her all over Oceanford College. He was using her to threaten Ingrid. How ridiculous."What exactly are you getting at?" Ned asked impatiently.Tommy stubbed out his cigarette and leaned close to Ned. "Though you swore nothing happened between you and Angeline that night, it's still a thorn in Ingrid's side. I bet it makes you uneasy, too."Ned's eyes darkened at having his sore spot prodded at. "So?""I bet Angeline will call you soon to spe

"This whole thing is just an accident. I hope you'll—""Ending up in bed with me was an accident; pushing Ingrid down the stairs was also an accident. Accidents happen to you quite often, don't they, Angeline?" Ned cut her off coldly. "Be at Regalia Hotel at 7:00 pm tomorrow."Explain this to my face. Otherwise, I'll make sure your adoptive mother spends the rest of her life in prison. You know me—I'm a man of my word." He hung up.Angeline's mind was blank as she listened to the dial tone on the other end of the line. She was seriously starting to doubt whether she truly understood Ned. In fact, she wasn't sure whether Ned wanted her to be at the hotel tomorrow so she could actually explain, or so he could drug her.Ned was infamous in Oceanford for being a bully, but he'd always treated her extremely well. The way he treated her and her love for him had formed a halo effect in her perception of him. She couldn't analyze the situation accurately because of that.At that moment, h

"Ms. Dalton," Angeline interrupted. "I'm not your boyfriend, so I can't provide you a sense of security. But once I've decided to give up on something, I won't ever turn back. That's something you can trust.""I'm sorry, Angie. I'm just … I just don't know who else I can speak to about these things." Ingrid bit her lip. "I'll talk to Ned about dropping the case against your adoptive mother. Don't worry about it.""Well … will I still need to head to Regalia Hotel this evening?" Angeline asked."What?" Ingrid was lost."Ned told me to meet him at Regalia Hotel at 7:00 pm to explain everything to him in person. Otherwise, he'd have Anne spend the rest of her life in prison."Angeline had to admit that she had a hidden agenda by telling Ingrid about this. Now, she no longer dared to place her faith in anyone's scruples and conscience. She hoped Ingrid could stop her and Ned from meeting again.After all, no one would want their significant other to meet their ex. And Ned couldn't sa
