Second Marriage to Mr. Rich (Ned Fletcher)

Chapter 155

Sherryn recalled that Angeline was a woman alone with her granddaughter. She was worried about the hardships her granddaughter might face.

"I don't have Angeline's contact information," Ned said as he stood up and looked at Sherryn.

"Mom, whether the child is adopted or biologically Angeline's, she is the last kin Angeline has in this world. I won't fight her for her daughter!"

"Is it because of Ingrid?"

Sherryn grabbed Ned's arm.

"Are you worried Ingrid won't accept the child? Ned... I never liked Ingrid. I only consented to your relationship because you insisted on being with her. If she can't accept the child..."

"It's not about Ingrid, Mom. Can you please not bring her into everything?"

Ned was irritated by Sherryn's words.

"Isn't Ingrid good enough for you?"

"Good for me? Then get married soon and provide me with a grandson! That would be spectacular!"

Sherryn sat down huffily in her chair.

"You said Ingrid was the one for you, so your father and I agreed. Well then, you should get married and have children quickly! Yet, you and Ingrid say she's going through her career peak, so you don't have the time for that. What are you doing together if you can't marry and have babies?"

Deep down, Sherryn thought Ingrid was still not as good as Angeline. Although Angeline came from a humble background, she would support the Fletcher family as long as Jessica was the heir to

Lawson Global. Sherryn knew Ingrid had no parents, and the Yates family always caused trouble, expecting Ned to clean up after them.

"Mom, this is a decision Ingrid and I made together. Stop blaming everything on her!" Ned said as he stood up.

"I came to Krontos this time to discuss a partnership with the head of Vitality Biotech's Lonla branch. Let's put other matters aside until the partnership is finalized. Only then will I have the mind to deal with other things."

With that, Ned walked out.

"Ned!"

Sherryn couldn't stop him. Unable to suppress her frustration, she had the maid clear the table and headed upstairs to her bedroom to sulk alone.

Ned pressed the gas pedal and drove off. He was agitated, so he stopped by the roadside and got out. He leaned against the front end of the car to light a cigarette. It wasn't until cigarette butts littered the ground that Ned hesitated before dialing a number he hadn't called in four years. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

"Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in service. Please check the number and try again..."

Ned then called Gregory. Gregory seemed to be eating as his voice was muffled.

"You wouldn't call unless it's for Angeline's contact information, right?"

Ned was taken aback.

"Did my mom call you?"

"She just hung up a moment ago."

Gregory sighed.

"I don't have Angeline's contact. And you're divorced. Can't you just leave her be?"

"I saw Angeline today. My mom did, too," Ned said while frowning.

"There was a young girl with Angeline."

Gregory was surprised to hear that.

"Wasn't the child lost when Angeline was hospitalized?"

"Yes, I thought so too. But considering the girl's age..."

Ned trailed off.

"I want to know if that child is mine. Remember to probe for me if Angeline contacts anyone from your lab."

After hanging up, Ned extinguished his cigarette and returned to the car.
