Chapter 219

Amid tension and embarrassment, Angeline sensed something unusual about Sean that day. Looking up at him, she inquired, “Are you asking this because you’re leaving the Lawson family?” Sean chuckled softly at her words. “I’ve said it before that you’re very smart.”
“Where are you going?” Angeline asked instinctively.
Sean tightened his hand around Angeline’s waist and pulled her closer. “Will you miss me?” he teased.
She placed her hands between them and expressed her concern. “When are you leaving? Does Mr. Lawson Senior know? Have you two discussed this?”
Sean revealed, “At Mr. Lawson Senior’s birthday party this month, your identity as a Lawson family member will be announced. I’ll leave after the party. Mr. Lawson Senior is aware of it.”
“You can’t go!” Angeline clutched Sean’s shirt. “Lawson Global can’t do without you right now. Besides… you have a stronger bond with Mr. Lawson Senior than I do! I can see that he cares a lot about you!” Angeline suddenly remembered an incident from four years ago in Oceanford. She had overheard Sean talking on the phone with Robert about her being a true member of the Lawson family.
“Is it because of me? Do you feel that since I’m part of the Lawson family, you want to return the Lawson family to me? I’ve never wanted Lawson Global!” she hurriedly explained.
Seeing Angeline’s anxious demeanor, Sean couldn’t help but kiss her lips gently without delving deeper. “You’ve got it backward. I want to leave… That’s why I’m returning the Lawson family and Lawson Global to you!”
Previously, Robert didn’t accept Angeline’s return to the Lawson family. Now, not only did Robert have Angeline, but he also had the company of his great-grandchildren, Xavier and Yasmine. Sean could finally leave with peace of mind, even eagerly.
“Then… What about after you leave the Lawson family? Will you still be in contact with the Lawson family? Will you still contact Mr. Lawson Senior?” Angeline asked.
“Whether I’ll stay in touch with the Lawson family after I leave mainly depends on you,” Sean said while his lips curved into a faint smile. “It depends on how you handle our relationship.”
Angeline looked down. She was too nervous to meet Sean’s sharply defined features. Her heart fluttered wildly.
“I love you, Angeline.” Sean caressed
her neck and kissed her lips again. He rested his forehead against hers and softly confessed his feelings. e “You still have time to think before the birthday banquet. If you decide you don’t want to be with me, I’ll divorce you. But if you’re willing to be with me
Sean couldn’t help but kiss her again and hold her tightly in his arms. The rest of his words were lost as he kissed Angeline. His hand cradled the back of her head, making her lips and tongue tingle.
He felt that if Angeline’s affection for him was strong enough to make her be with him forever, his uncontrollable infatuation and liking for Angeline would no longer be restrained.
“Sean… Sean Lawson.” Angeline tried to sound calm, but her voice trembled uncontrollably.
“Do you want it?” Sean brushed the stray hair from her lips and kissed her blushing lips, his voice husky. “Do you want to sleep with me?”
She felt that her heart nearly burst through her chest while her emotions and reason were on the verge of collapse. Her breathing was erratic.
Soon, instinct took over. She wrapped her arms around Sean’s neck and kissed him back eagerly. “Yes

That one word unlocked the cage in Sean’s heart and released the beast
within. He kissed Angeline back with
even more force as if wanting to meld her into himself. He lifted
Angeline and headed toward the bedroom.
