Second Marriage to Mr. Rich

"It's fine. Wait for me outside," Angeline comforted Kevin.

After Kevin left, the room door closed again.

Angeline turned around and looked at Ned, who was walking toward her. "I didn't expect you to behave like a gangster!"

"I've always been like this. It's just that I've never shown you this side of me." Ned stood in front of Angeline. He casually pulled over the ashtray on the round table and stubbed out the cigarette in his hand. Angeline's eyes flickered. She looked at him.

Ned saw the change in her expression and explained, "That's right. I remember it all. For example, how you called me 'Dear' when we were alone. I also remember the ring that I gave you when we were at the beach, and I remember... that kiss amongst the roses near the wall at the back of the school."

Angeline clenched her fist. Her eyes reddened at once.

Ned had regained his memories, but her heart had grown even colder.

"Those memories are no longer important to you, right?" Angeline looked coldly at Ned. "Even if you remember, Ingrid is still the most important person to you right now. Even Tommy is more important to you than those past events. You love Ingrid... You love her more than anything, don't you?"

Ned was irritated by how cold Angeline was being.

"Yes!" Ned did not want to back down. "That's why I advise you to stop things here. You can put everyone who mistreated your sister in jail, including that minor! But... you can't do that to Tommy!" "Don't you know that he's the main instigator?" Angeline raised her voice.

"So what? No one can lay a finger on someone I want to protect!" Ned stared at her without expression. "You should know that I always mean what I say."

The Angeline in front of him right now was very different from how she was in his fragmented memories. In his memories, she seemed to be softer, more immature, and more carefree.

Now, Angeline had become so thin that she was just a bag of bones. She gave him the impression that she would break apart with just a strong gust of wind.

Only those determined, bright eyes seemed exactly the same as they had been in the past.

Ned had no idea why, but he felt suffocated when he saw Angeline's eyes turn red. He put his hands in his pockets and frowned. According to the script that he had secretly rehearsed, he said in a threatening manner, "You'd better take me seriously!"

"If you remember the past, then you should know that I don't give up easily when I've made up my mind." Angeline's gaze grew harsh.

Ned took half a step closer to her and leaned in next to her ear. "If Tommy goes to jail, that entire family in Emmerson Village will know about your relationship with Sean! They'll also know where your biological grandfather is. That pitiful woman who was assaulted and got pregnant nine times. Her photo and her past will be exposed to the public."

The sound of a slap echoed.

Ned was halfway through his sentence when Angeline slapped him so hard that his head tilted sideways.

She was trembling all over. Her hand was numb from slapping him, and tears streamed down her cheeks.

As Ned had regained his memories, the things that Angeline had been holding onto for so long in her heart disappeared all of a sudden.

She had thought that Ned was treating her so badly because he had lost his memories.

She had thought that as long as he regained his memories, he would definitely return to her.

They had grown up together. From the time they had met until they got married, they had spent 12 years together.

He knew about everything she had gone through. He had healed Angeline, who was lack of love and insecure, with his passionate and suffocating love.
