Semua Bab Revenge on My Ex-husband: Bab 21 - Bab 30

The sound of Evelyn kneeling was so loud, everyone in the foyer turned to look in her direction. When they saw her sprawled on the ground, they tried not to laugh."Pfft!"Melody smirked. "Hey now, I’m not the president of Chinoria. You don’t have to do that."Alice covered her mouth in surprise, and hurriedly helped Evelyn up.Albert withdrew his foot. He just wanted to please Melody. How bad could he be?Benjamin strode forward quickly. He pushed Alice away and grabbed Evelyn, his face livid as he demanded, "What are you doing here?"His voice wasn’t loud, but he sounded quite angry. Never in his life had he been so embarrassed! Evelyn gritted her teeth, her face flushed with shame. She glared resentfully at Melody, and tried to pull Albert to her. "Dad, I have good news! I found you the perfect candidate to promote our jewelry!" she declared.Albert dodged Evelyn when she tried to pull him to her, but she didn’t mind. To Evelyn, she was currently outshining Melody. "Dad

The attention from the crowd didn’t bother Melody and Albert the slightest. They talked and joked as usual.Upon arriving at the destination, the breathtaking scenery filled Melody with delight. She was satisfied with the venue Albert had recommended. It was an elegant and secluded place in the city center.The singing birds calmed her heart, and the trees lining the road that led to the restaurant calmed her mind. The restaurant was built along the river, so it was named Riverside Restaurant. It had a luxurious, artistic flair to it. The waitress led them to their reserved seats. It was the best private dining room in the restaurant. A cool breeze blew in through the retro-style hollow wooden windows, making the room nice and cool. Albert pulled out the chair for Melody, then handed the menu to her. "Sis, ladies first."The waitress stood beside them, and observed them in secret. She blushed when she saw Albert’s face. What a handsome man! The wind blew past his bangs, send

Christopher found Melody despicable—she was squandering other people’s money without a care in the world!Talia saw him staring unblinkingly at Melody, and immediately felt threatened. She quickly leaned closer to him, and said enviously, “Look at how intimate they are, Chris! They’re not like us at all. We barely have time to go out for meals.” Christopher placed a sparerib on Talia’s plate. He glanced at Melody, and said, “From now on, I’ll be there for every meal.”When Melody heard that, she was hurt.In the past, she and Christopher seldom dined together. Yet, Christopher was willing to dine with his lover. How ironic! He really was a scumbag. Just then, someone knocked on the door again. A waitress walked in cautiously, carrying a plate of lamb chops."Sorry for interrupting your meal. This is our new menu. Would you like to try it? It’d be great if you could provide us your opinion on it," she said. The lamb chops smelled appetizing, but Albert smiled apologetically an

Melody stared back at Christopher coldly. "Mr. Bolton, you wouldn't say that if you were clear-headed enough to see the truth. I can easily destroy someone if I want to. I wouldn't use such cheap tactics. Only idiots can't understand that."The woman in Christopher’s arms was still sobbing pitifully, while the woman in front of him was coming off rather strong.Christopher felt troubled. In the end, he shoved Melody aside instead. Melody lost her balance, and nearly fell to the ground. It was fortunate that Albert was quick enough to catch her."How dare you lay a hand on her, Bolton?!" Albert roared. He shielded Melody and glared at Christopher, looking ready for a fight. However, Melody stopped him just in time. "Let's just go."'This man isn't worth sacrificing Albert's future,' she thought.Albert looked at Melody, filled with sympathy. Clenching his fists one last time, he finally decided to let it go."I really don't know how you ended up as a CEO, Bolton. I'm sure Bolt

Melody tried recalling anything regarding this matter, but to no avail."Would you like to let him in, Miss?" Simon asked again, noticing that she wasn't responding.Melody waved her hand dismissively, then headed straight to the door with a deep frown.The moment she opened the door, she was met with Benjamin's fake smile in the doorway. He seemed to be thinking he was being compassionate at the moment."Melody, you finally came! I'm just here to apologize for everything. I know what Evelyn did has affected the company negatively, but we're still a family, right? Let's just talk it out, shall we? Can't you forgive her for my sake?"After saying that, he started walking into the house."Hold on." Melody stopped him, her gaze chilling cold. "Is this how you apologize to people? And remind me, did I ever let you in?"Benjamin's expression turned stiff, his smile nearly fading as he noticed Albert sitting in the living room. "What is he doing here? I didn't expect you to be so cl
