Second Marriage to Mr. Rich
Chapter 218

Taylor hoped Sean wouldn't be angry enough to dock his bonus. Angeline closed the door and placed the pajamas on the couch, avoiding eye contact with Sean. "I still need to watch the lab videos. You should rest early," she said softly.

"Angeline..." Sean lit a cigarette and asked, "Should we talk about our relationship?"

Angeline gripped the hem of her clothes tightly. Sean's affection for her was evident and unmasked. Did she like Sean? She thought she did, but Robert would never accept her being with Sean. "Let's find a time to file for a divorce." Angeline mustered the courage to look at Sean.

Sean didn't get angry at her words. He sat on the arm of the couch and pulled Angeline close. "Ask yourself. Do you dislike my kisses and dislike being with me?" Sean's voice was steady. "I can feel that you long for me, which means you like me at least, right?"

"I admit it." Angeline clenched her fists and met Sean's gaze. "I like you."

Her heart raced even with the slightest accidental touch, eye contact, or even when he was holding her wrist like this. This was a feeling she never got from Ned. Her desire for Sean seemed to magnify endlessly.

Every look, every movement, and his scent were irresistible to her. This feeling was weird yet thrilling. She wasn't sure if it was love, but it was undoubtedly feelings, mostly desire for Sean.

It was somewhat shameful but true for Angeline, who had only been in love once. "But our relationship is too complicated. Would Mr. Lawson Senior allow us to be together? How would others view the Lawson family if we were together? I care about these things more than anything, including my life." Angeline's eyes turned red as she spoke.

"Very soon, I'll no longer be a Lawson. Over the years, Lawson Global has grown strong enough not to be easily toppled. Consider it my repayment for the Lawson family's kindness." Sean looked down as he caressed Angeline's wrist. "When you can officially take over the Lawson family, I must return to my own family."

"Your family?" Angeline was astonished. "I thought you had no relatives left."

Sean pulled Angeline into his embrace with a slight tug, his hand supporting her slender waist. "Didn't I tell you my original name?"

"You have a family? Does Mr. Lawson Senior know?"

Sean took a puff of his cigarette and saw Angeline frown. With a chuckle, he stubbed out the cigarette in the ashtray on the small table. "I do have a family. You, Xavier, and Yasmine are my family." "I mean your original family."

"Yes, my original family members are all gone, and I'm the only one left. That's the reason why I must return. So don't worry about our current status. Just ask yourself if you're willing to be with me and if you like me." Sean tucked the stray hair behind Angeline's ear. "Even if you simply like the feeling of kissing me or sleeping with me."

Sean's frank words made Angeline's tightly clenched hands sweat.
