Chapter 4 Bachelorette Party

“Uncle, just admit it. I saw your future wife. She mistook me for you, and she…”

“Tell me everything, immediately,” Jeffrey interrupted Stephen’s long-winded explanation as he said in a deep voice.

“Cough…”

Hearing this, Stephen dared not waste Jeffrey’s time as he told him what happened.

Of course, he only told Jeffrey about the second half of the story. If Jeffrey knew that he dared to flirt with his woman… Stephen had a chill down his back just by thinking this.

“Now, do as I tell you.”

The voice from the other side of the phone was emotionless but terrifying.

After Melanie left the airport, she took a cab straight to the hospital.

The Joneses started out in the medical field. Although they had declined a little after Melanie’s father passed away, they were still the leader in this industry.

With that, Melanie went straight to the hospital that she trusted the most and got an orthopedic specialist to examine her leg.

The specialist told her that her leg injury was not that serious. However, it became worse because of the use of the wrong medicine. If she resumed using the right medicine and took care of herself, her leg could fully heal.

Melanie’s eyes turned cold when she thought of this. Back then, Bryan would always accompany her to the hospital, and it seemed like he had been planning this early on. Her fiancé, whom she had loved the most, was so cruel to her.

She then went for massage rehabilitation in the therapy room after taking her medicine.

Melanie glanced at the clock. Bryan must have thought that she was still in Paris. Thinking of this, she decided to get the hospital admittance procedure done and stayed in the hospital.

The next day in the evening, Melanie took a cab to Starlight Lounge after she completed her rehabilitation. Starlight Lounge was the place where Bryan insisted on throwing a bachelorette party for her.

Back then, Melanie thought that Bryan did this because he valued her. However, when she thought about it again, he must have something up his sleeve for doing this. This might be a part of the schemes that they planned for her.

With that, she had to get herself ready.

The moment Melanie entered the ballroom, she saw Bryan and Lena standing side to side, having a wonderful conversation. When Bryan saw Melanie, he stood up for Lena without even caring what she would think of him.

“Melanie, I was so busy yesterday that I didn’t have time to check on you. You weren’t able to meet with Stephen’s manager, but were you able to build some rapport with them? Can the Morgans help to secure Lena a place in the International Socialites Gala?”

Melanie lowered her eyes after hearing this. How blind was she back then? How could they have the audacity to act so blatantly in front of her?

Melanie concealed her fury and answered, “Of course.”

“That’s great!”

Bryan could not hide his joy. “I knew they could help! Well, you should get started with the announcement.”

He cared so much for Lena. Did he forget that tomorrow was their engagement day?

Seeing Melanie standing there without moving a muscle, Lena tried to play nice after getting what she wanted. “Thank you, Melanie! You guys should spend some time together. I’ll be back soon.”

After Lena left them, Melanie purposely turned her body to block Bryan’s vision and looked at him merrily.

“Dear, you look amazing tonight.” Bryan only had time to look at her at this moment.

Melanie pursed her lips and nodded at him as she picked up a glass of champagne.

“Cheers.”

She tapped on Bryan’s wine glass and the crisp sound made his heart drop.

Melanie wore a black deep-V tailored nightgown, which complemented her amazing figure. The lights in her eyes were different as she seemed to have changed into another person.

Bryan smiled at Melanie as he raised his wine glass in response. He could not help but wrap his hand around her tiny waist.

Seeing this, Melanie frowned as she endured the awful feeling and placed her hand around his neck. She reached into his breast pocket and threw a bug into it…

They could hardly exchange a word as Bryan’s phone kept ringing. He took a look at his phone and hung it up. “It’s your bachelorette party. I’m not going to cling to you. You should enjoy yourself.”

Seeing Bryan hastily wanting to leave, Melanie knew that he was going for Lena.

They should not blame Melanie for being cruel. She could offer the sweetest smile while delivering the sharpest sting to them!
