Semua Bab Revenge on My Ex-husband: Bab 511 - Bab 520

As Melody gazed upward, she found herself captivated by Christopher's smile. His eyes were both warm and mesmerizing. They seemed to magnetically draw her in, causing her heart to flutter subtly.Reacting to his gentle hand squeeze, Melody was jolted awake for the moment.She quickly pulled her hand away, glaring at him and deliberately avoiding his gaze.Reflected in the mirror, Melody could see the anger in her expression, and her cheeks slightly reddened. Her lipstick was smeared, a reminder of the forceful kiss she had just experienced.Christopher watched her with a satisfied look. This led to Melody chastising him inwardly for his shamelessness."When I kissed you, you didn't push me away immediately. Doesn't that mean you wanted me to touch you?" Christopher teased, his voice low and his gaze fixed on her."Shut up!"His reckless statements devastated Melody, who responded by giving him a cold stare.She wondered if her momentary lapse in judgment was due to the alcoho

In the conference room, the board of directors awaited Christopher's arrival.He entered with a composed air and made his way to the central seat at the conference table, capturing everyone's attention with his presence.Each of these old foxes had a variety of expressions.Settling into his seat, Christopher adopted a relaxed posture, crossing his legs casually and facing the directors."Is it true that Mr. Bolton has ended the contract with Castillo Corporation?" Began a senior director, opening the meeting's discussion.Christopher responded with a mere tilt of his chin, neither denying nor confirming it."The project would have been more beneficial in the long run if we kept working with Castillo Corporation. The penalty they paid did not cover our losses," another director chimed in.This sparked a flurry of comments from the rest, all expressing skepticism about Christopher's recent decision.Throughout this, Christopher remained silent, absorbing their words but offeri

The look in Melody's eyes wavered ever so slightly. Her demeanor was cold, and she remarked, "Is there anything to discuss besides work-related topics?"Her words were like ice-cold daggers piercing Christopher's heart, chilling him to the bone.He managed a forced smile and conceded, "I call for a work discussion."…Melody descended the steps and climbed into a Lincoln Limousine an hour later.Christopher was watching her in the back seat. He spoke with a touch of melancholy, asking, "Are you treating me like your limousine driver?""Well, not just anyone gets to sit in the passenger seat," Melody replied indifferently.Christopher looked at her more intently. His eyes gleamed subtly in the low light."You're the only one who belongs there," he said in a raspy voice, his tone tinged with warmth.Melody felt a stir from his words. She pressed her lips together and looked out the window, ignoring his comment.Christopher sighed internally, recognizing that he was looking fo

His eyes were filled with astonishment. He had lost all traces of his previous arrogance and confidence.Melody's expression was icy as she turned away without a word, ignoring him.The sound of a snack bag being opened resonated in the car. Melody began enjoying her biscuits with pleasure.She intentionally ate the "junk food" that Christopher had scorned. As she ate, she made it a point to remark, "Delicious."Hearing this, Philip looked at her with a smile."Glad you're enjoying it." His voice was soft and gentle, saying, "I'll make sure to keep more in the car for you."Melody acknowledged with a nod.Suddenly shifting the topic, Philip mentioned, "About that web project we're collaborating on with Sol Group, they're ready to start now."Melody responded thoughtfully, "I'll assign a team to survey the market and ensure speedy progress on this project."They started discussing Nolan Enterprise's business, effectively excluding Christopher, who was sitting in the back feel

Christopher expressed his annoyance with a click of his tongue and took off his shirt reluctantly.His light complexion was now exposed to the cool air, and the slight smell of antiseptics lingered in the air.Philip kept a neutral expression on his face as he poured hydrogen peroxide over the wound, which fizzed with small white bubbles."Melody's defense of you just now was for purely professional reasons," Christopher frowned and pointed out, "Don't delude yourself into thinking it was more."This comment seemed to affect Philip. His movements were noticeably rougher after hearing that. He pressed the wound so hard that he tore it, causing Christopher excruciating pain.Biting back his discomfort, Christopher endured it in silence, internally criticizing Philip's pettiness and tendency to hold grudges."Are you being bitter because you couldn't have what you wanted?" Philip asked, and his normally soft features became icy.Despite the harsh remarks, he continued to heal Chris
