The next day, Melody woke up with a splitting headache. Scratching her messy hair, she scanned at her unfamiliar surroundings as she tried recalling the events from last night.'Did I black out from drinking?'Her mind was blank as she tried retracing her steps. She knew that she went to a club last night, and went dancing while feeling tipsy…Suddenly, her eyes widened. 'I bumped into Christopher last night, and I slapped him on the face too!'Hell yeah!'I loved him so desperately for so long, but I never fought back! Slapping him sure felt good!'And it was so funny seeing how pissed he looked! I still want to laugh about it now!'Just then, her phone started ringing, interrupting her thoughts. Glancing at the phone next to her pillow, she noticed that she had over a hundred missed calls from Irwin."Boss, why didn't you wait for me before leaving yesterday? Where are you now?!" Irwin sounded quite anxious, as he couldn't find Melody after receiving a call last night.Wai

Faced with Melody's cold gaze, Belinda couldn't help but wince.It had only been three years, but the Melody before them had changed entirely. Although she hadn't changed much appearance wise, her menacing aura was enough to intimidate Belinda.She smiled warmly. "I wanted to keep it, but you have no idea how many insects have plagued the place during the warmer seasons! I didn't have a choice but to take it down. We couldn't possibly let those bugs mess up a beautiful house, right?"Melody scoffed. 'Bugs? How could she even come up with such a poor excuse. Doesn't matter. I'll make them pay soon enough.'"Fine, then let me ask you one thing. Who allowed you to move in here?" Melody sat down on the sofa elegantly, awaiting Belinda's response. "Well…" Belinda rubbed the back of her neck gently. "You went missing, and your parents died in an accident, so that means this wonderful place would be empty. Don't you think it's a waste? Your mother's relatives are all living abroad anywa

Luke swallowed. Cautiously, he reported in a shaky voice, "Three years ago, Ms. Melody appeared in Chinoria out of nowhere. She doesn’t have any relatives, and our background investigation of her resulted in nothing. We’re still working on it, sir."Christopher was displeased. Turning to Luke, he snarled, "You’re disappointing!""I’m so sorry, sir."Luke was trembling, but he had to continue the report. "Also, we need your authorization regarding the continuation of our project with Nolan Enterprise."Christopher frowned.When the ex-president was still alive, Nolan Enterprise and Bolton Enterprise had several projects together. After the man passed away, Nolan Enterprise fell into a mess. The current president made massive changes in the company management, and all their collaborative projects weren’t extended. Christopher wondered if things had changed, now that a new president had risen."How’s Nolan Enterprise now?"Luke quickly replied, "Ms. Nolan has regained control o

Christopher nodded, satisfied.Seeing Christopher’s mood getting better, Luke went on, "Sir, what should we do in response to Ms. Talia’s interview? The world and the media are paying attention to her now. Some shareholders are unhappy with its impact on Bolton Enterprise, and may go after her. Shall we warn Ms. Talia about that?"When Luke mentioned that, Christopher grew irritated."No, I prefer the direct approach," he said. Luke went silent; he knew Christopher was furious with Talia. He prayed Christopher would show her some mercy. -Melody knew nothing about the conversation between Christopher and Jonathan. If she did, she would’ve put up fireworks to celebrate. The next day, she went to work as usual.Melody knew very well that there were many complicated affairs in the company and that it was impossible for her to correct everything in a short time. Although most people were terrified and seemed to obey her, they didn’t respect her. Nolan Enterprise had been under B

Victor immediately panicked. Seeing as Melody wasn’t saying anything, though, he assumed she hadn’t heard him.He smiled, and asked her politely, “Going down, Ms. Nolan?”Melody ignored him, and glanced at Benjamin.Benjamin noticed her stare. He smiled, and pressed the elevator. "Your father would be very proud of you if he’s watching you from heaven."Melody thought differently. ‘If my father really is watching from heaven, he’d kill you, or maybe go after you in your nightmares!’"This is Nolan Enterprise. Instead of getting me more assistants, why don’t you put more effort into generating revenue? You’re paid to work. I hope you’ll keep this in mind," she said. The smile on Benjamin’s face froze. Melody’s rudeness made him seethe. He was sure she was incapable—he couldn’t wait to see her fail!At the same time, Albert was sitting by the window of the foyer. He attracted a lot of attention.Dressed in a white T-shirt and jeans, he was the picture-perfect image of a beautiful
