Lahat ng Kabanata ng Second Marriage to Mr. Rich: Kabanata 301 - Kabanata 310

At worst, Rowan could keep Jessica around in her crazed state and have her adopt one of his own children. That way, he'd still be able to get half of the Lawson family fortune.This was also one of the reasons Robert had been in such a hurry to have Sean marry Monica—it was a way to prevent Rowan from pulling any funny tricks. Robert figured that as long as Sean had a wife from a powerful family, he'd be able to help Jessica protect Lawson Global after Robert's death.And so, a few days ago, when Rowan had heard about Robert's plan to have Jessica adopt a daughter who was also related to Sean, he'd lost his cool."What nonsense! You must've forged all of this!" Helen waved the documents around and looked at Robert. "Uncle Robert, would you rather trust an outsider than your blood relatives?"Rowan returned to his senses at her words. "Yes, exactly. Robert, you can't trust Sean! He's out to get our family's money!""Still being stubborn, are we? That's fine." Sean glanced at his wa

Rowan had paid both the manager and the driver off. The young man was the only one Rowan hadn't had anything to do with.The young man glanced at Sean, then at Robert. He stepped forward and cautiously placed an aged journal on the coffee table. "My mother worked at the shopping mall and served Ms. Lawson in the past. This is her journal."At the time… I was diagnosed with leukemia and needed a lot of money for my treatment. Because of that, my mother accepted the money against her better judgment and allowed Ms. Lawson to be taken away."He pursed his lips. "She spent the rest of her life living in horrible guilt. Later, on her deathbed, she told me to find a way to pass this journal to you, Mr. Lawson Senior. I'm a nobody, so I've never gotten the chance to even get near you. I've kept the journal this whole time, though."Taylor stepped forward to pick the journal up. He handed it to Robert, who took it with trembling hands and immediately started reading it. When he got to the

Jessica was Robert's only child, so he'd had high hopes for her. He'd arranged for her to attend various courses and classes since she was a child. Though he'd given Jessica all his love, he'd also pressured her.If not for that, Rowan wouldn't have successfully taken Jessica away by luring her out with the prospect of sneaking away for some fun.Robert swore he wouldn't repeat his mistakes with Xavier and Yasmine. His only wish was for them to grow up happily and healthily.Angeline helped Robert upstairs. After that, having heard from Sandy that Jessica was already resting after taking some sleeping pills, she kept her footfalls light as she headed to the third floor. She pushed Jessica's door open to check on her.The nightlight's dim glow was just about enough for Angeline to see Jessica sleeping soundly. She teared up a little as she quietly shut the door.Sandy smiled when she saw this. "I knew you'd be here. Don't worry—Jessica's been doing well recently. Now that you, Xavi

Even to this day, whenever Sean shut his eyes, he would still be haunted by the sight of his parents doing everything in their power to save him. He couldn't set aside the torment they'd suffered and his plan for vengeance."I understand." Robert sighed again. "As a father, I want you to know that my biggest wish is for my children to live good lives. I wouldn't want them to be tortured by their hatred."Before this, he'd never understood why Sean insisted on leaving the Lawson family. But now that Sean had come clean about his true identity and the burden he shouldered, Robert understood.Sean was about to embark on his path of vengeance but didn't want to implicate the Lawson family. That was why he wanted to orchestrate an accident to wipe Sean Lawson off the face of this earth. It was also to ensure Lawson Global was returned to the Lawson family in one piece."I have my reasons for doing this. On one hand, I don't want to drag the Lawson family down with me. On the other hand,

Ned's expression was dark as he looked at Helen. "So, how do you want me to work with you?""Those children can't remain with the Lawson family. I can help to lure them out and hand them to you. Since they're your children, you can deal with them however you please! But no matter what, you have to make sure they can't return to the Lawson family."Helen smiled. "You're their father, after all. No one can say you're in the wrong for taking them away."She'd heard that Xavier and Yasmine had Robert and Jessica wrapped around their fingers. Jessica, especially, couldn't be away from them at all. Besides, she'd also heard from Robert's lawyer's assistant that Robert's will stated some of his things would go to Xavier and Yasmine. How could she not be jealous?Despite being related to Robert by blood, Helen wasn't getting a single dime. Yet Angeline's bastard children were included in the will. Helen's father was Robert's brother!That wasn't all. Robert had earlier agreed to let Row
