Second Marriage to Mr. Rich
Chapter 149

Yasmine had grown very fond of Sean from the moment she met him. She insisted that Sean be the one to tuck her in at night.

Angeline sat on the couch and browsed the news online. The breakthrough in chip and lithography machine technology was the talk of not just the mainstream media, both domestic and international, but also various social media platforms.

Angeline couldn't help but smile as she read. It reinforced her belief that technological advancements must be in one's own hands.

It was past ten when Angeline peeked into the bedroom and saw Sean and Yasmine fast asleep. She carefully covered them with a blanket and quietly left the master bedroom.

The following day, Angeline woke up to find Sean had already left for work. He had left a note for Yasmine, mentioning they would meet at the Lawson family estate in the afternoon. After completing her morning exercise and catching up on international news, Angeline locked her phone screen and entered the master bedroom.

She gently kissed Yasmine's warm, soft cheek.

She brushed the hair from her face and whispered, "Yasmine, wake up, sweetheart. It's almost time."

Roused by Angeline's voice, Yasmine rubbed her eyes and sat up to reach for a hug. Angeline embraced her and felt the weight of Yasmine in her arms like a cuddly cat.

Yasmine hugged her neck tightly and greeted her with a sleepy voice, "Good morning, Mommy."

"Good morning," Angeline replied as she stroked Yasmine's back.

"It's time to get up and get ready. We'll have breakfast, and then off we go to the Lawson estate."

Yasmine straightened up and rubbed her eyes again.

"Will we see the beautiful Mrs. Lawson and Mr. Lawson Senior there?"

Mrs. Lawson was Jessica, Angeline's birth mother.

"Yes, we will. But remember, Yasmine, we agreed that outside of visiting Mr. Lawson Senior and the beautiful Mrs. Lawson with me, you must pretend not to know them. It could cause them trouble, understand?" Angeline advised softly as she began to unbutton Yasmine's pajamas.

"And today, at the Lawson estate, you can't address Daddy as 'Daddy'..."

Yasmine nodded obediently.

"I know. Daddy told me last night! Mr. Lawson Senior likes Daddy, loves Mommy even more, and adores Yasmine and Xavier. But for some reason that I don't understand yet, they can't let Daddy and Mommy be together.

"Until that reason is resolved, we must keep it a secret that I'm Daddy's child. This way, Daddy and Mommy can solve the problem faster without causing any trouble."

Angeline was surprised. She hadn't yet figured out how to explain the situation to Yasmine, but Sean had already done so the night before. She pinched Yasmine's cheek affectionately. "That's right! How smart our Yasmine is!"

"Of course! Mommy, Xavier, and Daddy are all so talented! Yasmine can't fall behind," Yasmine chirped as she nuzzled into Angeline's embrace.

"Since I'm so clever, can you return the phone and watch you took away?"

"Sure," Angeline agreed without hesitation.

"Let's get ready quickly, have breakfast, and then help Mommy pick a gift for Mrs. Lawson, okay?"

Angeline hadn't expected to meet Jessica so soon and felt overwhelmed. She was unsure what kind of gift to prepare for her birth mother.

"I've brought the paintings Xavier and I made for Mrs. Lawson and Mr. Lawson Senior!" Yasmine said thoughtfully as she sat obediently, waiting for Angeline to dress her.

Then, her eyes lit up with an idea.

"Mommy, I know! When Mr. Danvers took Xavier and me to stay with Mr. Lawson Senior and Mrs. Lawson, I realized she loved gardening. Mommy, let's buy some beautiful flowers for her, okay?"
