Fate’s Second Chance ( Salome Felix )

Fate’s Second Chance Chapter 6



Chapter

Salome was only stunned for a second and wasn’t worried she’d be recognized

After all, she practically never appeared before the Andersons except for when she visited Jacob during the holidays. It was even less likely that the others would bother 

themselves with a nobody like her when not even Isaac knew what his own wife looked 

like

At the thought of Isaac’s countenance, a hint of frustration laced Salome’s face

Maybe I’ve upset Mr. Anderson somehow.” 

Bryan was into the pretty ladies; he didn’t care what their jobs were or what kind of 

background they had. And his tone unconsciously softened when he saw the 

bombshell before him

That can’t be right. Your designs are very artistic. My cousin might be in the business 

world, but he didn’t study finance from the getgo. He took a double degree in college

and his other major happened to be artrelated. I promise you he has a degree of 

appreciation for the arts. He might just be in a bad mood because he’s been busy with 

his divorce lately

Salome said nothing in response. Rather, Luke exclaimed in surprise, Isaac’s married?!” 

Bryan sighed. For a few years at that. Word is that he contacted his lawyer as soon as 

Chapter 6 He Has Always Had Someone He Likes 

he came back this time, urgently seeking a divorce.” 

He rarely visited Anderson Residence, especially after reaching adulthood, spending his time partying and living recklessly outside. All he knew was that his dear cousin got married under Jacob’s arrangement but had never met his supposed sisterinlaw

It was Luke’s first time hearing about this, so he couldn’t help being curious. I thought Imperial Villa was a marital home. He’s been married for a while, huh? Sounds like he’s intending to make it his bachelor pad.” 

Bryan gestured for the two to make themselves at home, and so did he. Well, I guess it’s still a marital home. My cousin doesn’t like his current wife, and he was also forced into this marriage. He used to have this girl he liked, or likes, so Imperial Villa is likely

dedication to her.” 

With that, he gentlemanly poured Salome a glass of juice. I’ll show him your work when he comes over later. I’m sure he’ll be interested then.” 

Salome smiled politely as she took the glass from Bryan and said, Thanks. I’ll treat you 

to a meal if I can bag this deal.” 

Bryan liked her humble attitude and couldn’t help getting a little loquacious. Oh, you 

should if it really works out. You won’t get shortchanged on the design fee, I’ll give you 

that. And since it’s my cousin’s project, your reputation will surely skyrocket.”

3/5 

Salome nodded in agreement. Bryan wasn’t lying. If this deal succeeded, it would boost 

her visibility and allow her to enter Isaac’s circle, and the entire studio wouldn’t have to 

worry about not having projects

Meanwhile, the door to the private room on the other side of the corridor opened, and

tall man walked out, exuding a chilling aura as he moved

Just as he stepped in, his phone rang again

Seeing it was Bryan, Isaac declined the call with furrowed brows

What’s with that face?The man beside him caught a glimpse of his expression and

found it amusing. Look at you, all grim as soon as you come in. Did some idiot mess 

with you?” 

The private room was spacious, and there were quite a few people inside, but there 

were also social hierarchies within the Hallowthorn circle

Isaac naturally belonged to the elite class, and without exception, the people 

surrounding him were prominent figures of power and influence

As for the rest, they sat far away from him the moment he entered

Andrien casually handed him a glass of liquor. The man’s fingertips were fair, and his 

facial features were delicate and gentle, exuding a leisurely and carefree demeanor. Is

it because of the divorce? I heard your missus refuses to sign the paper.” 

It was no secret in the circle that Isaac was filing a divorce, and it probably wouldn’t be 

long before his grandfather Jacob learned about it

Isaac took off his cufflinks and tossed them to the server beside him before casually 

sitting on the couch. He crossed his long legs naturally, emanating a distant and 

domineering aura all over his body. “It’s only a matter of time before she signs. She 

knows better than anyone why we got married in the first place.His tone was 

indifferent, clearly indicating his reluctance to say more

That said, he wasn’t upset at this moment because of his socalled wife, but the woman 

earlier made him pissed

He couldn’t understand how she reacted so inexperienced when she had already been 

in that line of work for three years

Coincidentally, the guys at the adjacent table were talking about their girlfriends

Men often freely discussed private matters, both light and heavy. Isaac had never paid 

attention to these conversations before, but for some reason, he overheard a few 

words this time

So, she’s been pretending to be innocent? What did you do after you found out?”

5/5 

We broke up, of course! What else could I do? Who knew just how many times she had 

patched that hymen of hers?! If it weren’t for my friend at the hospital recognizing her,

was even planning to marry her. But it turns out the child in her belly isn’t mine either

She thinks she can use me to father some b*stard and make her my missus?! Ha, in her 

dreams!” 

For these indulgent young men, who lacked neither money nor time, women’s affairs 

were their common casual topic

Women nowadays aren’t simple. It depends on what type you like. What’s the word 

they use againPrecise hunting!For all we know, the father of that child might even 

be someone you know, and the more innocent they appear, the more likely they are 

promiscuous” 

Isaac’s grip on his glass suddenly tightened, and an image of Salome’s lowered gaze 

and obedient demeanor flashed across his mind. Fragments from last night also 

surged into his memory, still vivid, while restless unease welled up within him

Just then, Bryan called again, urging him to come downstairs to a private room for

facetoface conversation
