Second Marriage to Mr. Rich
Chapter 201

"Did Mr. Lawson Senior ask you to help Lawson Global?" Xavier asked as he knew his mother always listened to Robert. "Mom, didn't you like working in the lab? Are you going to give up working in the lab?" Angeline touched Xavier's cheek. "Don't worry. I can handle both at the same time."

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Angeline heard the doorbell and thought it was Sean. She opened the door with Xavier in her hands.

It was Ned who stood outside the door. He saw Angeline carrying a pajama-clad Xavier and stared at him without moving or saying a single word.

"What do you want?" Angeline asked.

Ned came back to his senses. "I heard you were at the "

Ned stopped before saying casino because he shouldn't mention it in the presence of Xavier. Ned bit his lips before continuing, "Can we talk alone? I don't want to talk about it before the kid." Angeline put Xavier down and said, "I've turned off the heat for the milk. Go wait for me on the couch."

Xavier sized Ned up condescendingly before nodding and leaving toward the couch.

"If it's for the paternity test, I can give you a strand of Xavier's hair," Angeline said.

"No. I'm not here for that." Ned gave a credit card to Angeline from his pocket. "I heard you were at the casino. If you're short on money, just let me know."

Angeline looked at the card and chuckled. She didn't take the card and said, "Isn't Fletcher Corporation struggling right now? Why do you still have the money to spend on me, Mr. Fletcher?"

Ned replied, "It's hard to raise a kid by yourself, considering the money you have to spend-"

"I'm not short on money," Angeline interrupted.

"Could you stop being stubborn, Angeline?" Ned question. "Would you have the money to raise a kid by yourself? What can you do? You didn't graduate after transferring from Oceanford College to Cloudsville College, did you?

"Do you think you're a genius just because the others said so? How are you going to make money to raise your kids?"

Ned couldn't control his temper and continued, "Are you going to make your kids suffer with you?"

Angeline raised her eyebrows and looked at Ned as if she was looking at an idiot.

She didn't want to entertain a fool,

so she smiled and said, "If you're not here for a paternity test, leave, The best way for you to help us is to stop disturbing us."

Ding!

The elevator arrived, and Sean came out of it in casual wear with a breakfast-filled thermal bag in his hands.

He drew his eyebrows together and gave a dull expression when he saw Ned.

"Why are you here? How did you find this place?" Sean asked.

Ned clenched the card tightly and unwillingly greeted, "Hello, Uncle Sean."

"Since you're engaged to Ingrid, please cut off your ties with Angie! Didn't you realize how many

paparazzi are following you and

Ingrid? Please don't get Angie

involved in your news," Sean warned.

Although Sean sounded calm, his voice carried a sense of authority that even a higher-up wouldn't dare to disobey.

"Yes, Uncle Sean," Ned replied and turned to Angeline. "I know you don't want to see me, but what I owe you is more than a mere apology.

"I still want to try my best to make up for you if given a chance. If you need me, call me. Please accept this!"

Ned gave the credit card to Angeline again.

"Could you carry this inside first, Angie?" Sean gave the thermal bag to Angeline. He then entered the house and said, "Listen, Ned. Angie is not short on money. All you're trying to do is to alleviate the guilt in your heart, which is unnecessary."

"It was my fault, Uncle Sean. It's okay to blame it on me." Ned left the card on the shelf by the entrance.

"I'll just leave this here. It has no password. Consider it a token of apology from me."
