Second Marriage to Mr. Rich のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 911 - チャプター 920

Thomas' eyes were red. He moved his lips but couldn't bring himself to say anything."I know vengeance is your only reason for living and that you don't care about your own life. But if you can bring yourself to disregard our lives, you can do whatever you want once you recover. Go ahead and get your revenge—we'll just put our lives on the line for you. It's not a big deal."But if you do care about our lives, even if it's just a little, have faith in us. Have faith that Eric will find evidence that's strong enough to make them pay the price. Don't act on your own anymore," Angeline said. With that, she left the room.She knew Thomas. All this while, he'd felt that his vengeance was his own and had nothing to do with anyone else. It was why he'd gone so far as to drug Eric so he could head to Keman alone—he didn't want to drag anyone down with him.That was why Angeline had said what she'd said. She wanted him to know what she'd given up to save him and how far she would go to keep

Zachary and Miles stood up."Angie…""Angie, you're here."When Angeline glanced at Miles, he explained, "I asked Zachary not to tell you that I was here. I figured you wouldn't come if you knew about me being here."Zachary nodded at Taylor and said politely, "Could I ask you and your colleague to enjoy your meals next door, Mr. Powell? We need to talk to Angie about a few things."Angeline nodded at Taylor. Only then did he and Jamie head to the room next door. Zachary pulled out a seat for her, and she sat down. She didn't ask why Miles was there. Instead, she asked, "What is it about the Emmersons that you wanted to tell me?""I have to apologize before I say anything…" Miles sighed. "Mallory contacted them before this, but she's cut them off now! I had someone keep an eye on them to prevent them from doing anything to cause trouble for you, and my men reported that Juliet was coming to Krontos. I've already had them stop her, though, so don't worry about that."Angeline fro

Angeline looked at Miles. "Are you telling me that just because we grew up together, I need to hold our friendship dear forever? You expect me to do that even though I know you guys prayed for me to die or to remain comatose forever?"I've always thought you were smart, Miles, but the things you've said today are really making me doubt your intelligence. Why don't you think about whether it's easier to go home and keep your sister on a tight leash or to try to make me back down by bullshitting about nonexistent friendships?"After a momentary pause, she continued, "After all, you guys said back then that I was heartless and cold to everyone but Ned. If you already know what I'm really like, why do you expect me to suddenly care about bonds that never existed in the first place?"She stood up. "Just so you know, Zachary, I didn't come to this gathering for your sake. I did it because your sister, Vanessa, cared for me when I was comatose. This is my last time accepting an invitation

Zachary was lost for words."Don't look at me like that!" Miles frowned. "I'm not gonna force Ned to make it happen or anything since he and Ingrid already called off their engagement."I was just thinking that if Ingrid really can't help with the advertisement, Ned should at least still be able to find someone suitable since he's managing Wyndham Entertainment. I'll have to pay someone for the advertisement, anyway. I might as well give the money to my buddy."Zachary didn't say anything. After the meal, he called Ned and set an appointment for dinner. Then, he told Miles, "I won't join you tonight. I have to head back to Oceanford for my nephew's birthday tomorrow. I promised him I'd spend the day with him.""Alright." Miles added, "I have to meet a client later, anyway."It was only after Zachary left that Miles showed some signs of fatigue. In the past, he hadn't believed in fate. He believed his capabilities were enough to change everything, but since taking over Locke Group,

Miles was startled. He suddenly laughed and said, "No, Angie and I have always been from two different worlds. Don't you remember what her IQ is? With her intelligence, she never needed to advance year by year with you. "So many universities reached out to her, from the local universities to the ones abroad. She's a genius. She only followed an ordinary person's pace so that she could be with you. "How should I say this? In the past, I always felt like Angie was from a different world compared to the rest of us because she came from such a poor family. However, now that I think about it, I've been right that we're from different worlds. "But in some aspects, she's superior to us. We could even say that we're in completely different leagues."Miles had to admit it.Angeline's abilities and intelligence were far beyond theirs. The truth was that without Ned, they wouldn't even have gotten to know her. While they were playing ball and fighting in school, Angeline would be in the
