Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher)

Chapter 129

Since Sean defied Robert, his only relative, to help Angeline, needless to say, Monica felt obliged to help her, too.

Moreover, if Monica was friendly to Angeline, she might even help put in some good words for her with Sean.

Ned could only watch as Angeline and Monica left since Llyod blocked him from approaching them.

Angeline told Monica at the hotel entrance, "Thank you for saving me, Ms. Scott."

"You're Sean's relative. I have to help you out," Monica said.

"If you would like to repay me, how about you help me pass a message to Sean?

"Tell him that our marriage is merely a business transaction. I believe I'll be his best business partner!"

Sean wouldn't even pick up Monica's call. Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked Angeline to pass her message to him.

For Sean to have a better foothold in Lawson Global right now, he needed the status of being the son-in-law of the Scott family.

Monica was ambitious. She always wanted to surpass her sisters as the true successor of Scott Incorporated. To achieve that, she would need the heir of the Lawson family to be her husband as her trump card.

Since Sean valued his lineage to the point that he was willing to help Angeline by marrying her, he would be more likely to listen to Angeline's words.

Moreover, since he valued his family lineage, Sean would value his children with Monica.

Angeline looked at Monica and asked, "Ms. Scott, are you… not in love with Mr. Lawson?"

Monica plastered on a fake smile.

"To me, marriage is merely an exchange. We each take what we need. I'm sure Mr. Lawson doesn't want me to have any feelings for him, too."

Monica understood the type of man Sean was after their previous meetings.

Sean was a cold, reserved man. All of his actions were aimed at advancing his own interests. He would never believe it if Monica said she liked him after merely a few meetings. She would have had a better chance if she told him the truth and be honest.

"But, since you and Mr. Lawson married in Ravoria to keep your children away from Mr. Fletcher, I have another request for you," Monica said.

"So that Mr. Lawson Senior doesn't misunderstand, I want you to keep your marriage and pregnancy a secret."

After all, Sean would be Monica's husband in the future. Even if they had no feelings for each other, she wouldn't allow Sean to be the butt of a joke or an ugly stain on her marriage because of his fake marriage with Angeline. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

"Don't worry, Ms. Scott. I know what to do," Angeline assured.

"Well then, Ms. Emmerson, let's hope we'll see each other again soon."

Monica smiled and got in the car after she said her farewells.

As the car started, Monica told Lloyd, "Give me all the information on Angeline and her ex- husband."

"Yes, Ms. Monica," Lloyd replied.

When she returned to her hotel room, Angeline messaged Sean about her encounter with Monica today.

After she sent the message, Angeline kept receiving calls from an unknown number. Based on the constant calls, she knew it was Ned.

The phone was still ringing even after she exited from the shower.

Angeline finally picked up the phone and asked, "Are you done, Ned?"

"Who did you marry? Is it the second son of the Norwalk family? Did you expose Ingrid's lie to him?"

Ned sounded husky, as though he had been smoking cigarettes.

"Whoever I married has nothing to do with you," Angeline said.

"If you keep calling me, I'll tell Simon the next time I see him that it was me who saved him back in Ica."
