Alle Kapitel von I Became His Sweetheart: Kapitel 571 – Kapitel 580

Pam pursed her lips. After hesitating for a few seconds, she said, “Nathan…”Melanie’s eyes dimmed further. She glanced at the overly-sensuous gown that Pam was wearing, and asked, “Was he the one who gave you this gown?”“Yes,” Pam said, looking even more embarrassed.“How far have you two taken this relationship?” Melanie pressed further.“Huh…?” Pam exclaimed shyly.“Can you show me his text?” Melanie cut to the chase.Pam was surprised by Melanie’s request. After pondering for a moment, she swiped on her phone and raised it up. “You look really beautiful today. Can you come up and be with me?” Melanie couldn’t help but feel disgusted by Nathan’s thinly-veiled attempt at flirting.Most of the proceedings of the banquet were held on the first floor. Amidst the bright lights, colorful array of drinks, and hordes of beautiful women, it was common for guest rooms on the second floor to be reserved for some men who needed them…The banquet had already started. If Nathan didn’

Melanie and Gabriel’s eyes widened in shock.They were talking about Mr. Lynch…Both of them reacted quickly, and hid around the corner. The gears in Melanie’s brain shifted as she whispered to Gabriel, “Follow that man.”Gabriel nodded. If they managed to nab someone who wanted to hurt Mr. Lynch, it would undoubtedly help them gain his trust and favor.When the man who was on a phone call walked out of the balcony, Gabriel discreetly followed behind him.Melanie emerged from the dark corner after they walked off in the distance, and continued walking toward the balcony. Just as she was about to step through the entrance of the balcony, a hand reached out from a narrow passageway next to the balcony, grabbed Melanie, and pulled her hard.She looked up in shock, and saw that it was Jefford.“Shh!”He bent over, and warned her to keep quiet with an aggressive look on his face.Melanie’s brows furrowed. She didn’t expect Jefford to be back at Delfino.In that case, Mrs. Yancey a

Derrick’s assistant had initially wanted to grab the scores, but he stared at Melanie when he heard her say she could play the song.Derrick was equally surprised, and surveyed Melanie.“Are you sure you can?” the assistant asked in disbelief.“This is Mr. Lynch’s first hit, which I’ve listened to since I was young. I’ve practiced playing the accompaniment version of his song during my piano lessons in the past, too. The only thing is, Mr. Lynch recomposed the song and there are seven differences I have to take note of. I’ve kept them in mind, and will pay extra attention when I play the song,” Melanie said with quiet confidence.Seeing everyone’s worried faces, Melanie added, “I need Mr. Lynch’s favor. Wouldn’t I be causing trouble for myself by claiming that I can do this and then failing in the end?”What Melanie said sounded harsh, but it made sense. The assistant looked at Derrick, who was looking at Melanie.She was right to say he had changed the song in seven different pl

Melanie stayed backstage.Gabriel wasn’t back yet, and she had no idea what to do if she headed out. What’s more, both Nathan and Linda wanted to make life tough for her, be it secretly or openly.A while later, it was Derrick who ended up going backstage first instead of Gabriel.“Ms. Melanie! Apologies for keeping you waiting,” Derrick said.“Don’t say that. Is anything the matter?” Melanie asked as she stood up.“Your performance just now was absolutely stunning! It’s unbelievable!”Derrick was generous with his praise. “I’ll be honest and say that your performance is on par with that of professional pianists. I’m flabbergasted. You didn’t rehearse this piece at all, but you were able of playing it so perfectly! You’ve completely exceeded my expectations!”“Perhaps you didn’t expect much from me?” Melanie joked.Derrick chuckled. “Did you learn how to play the piano when you were young? Your skills clearly sound as though they’ve been honed from your childhood.”“I did le

Derrick’s performance was supposed to mark the end of the banquet, but the atmosphere reached a peak.Gabriel found himself surrounded by elders he was familiar with, eager to exchange pleasantries with him. Melanie avoided the crowd, and headed to the washroom alone.She felt great remorse.It would have been all right if she were unaware, but she clearly knew about the grudge Yancey Group had against Morgan Group. Why was she still so careless as to allow Yancey Group to resort to decoy tactics, and thereby successfully attack Morgan Group’s most major business lines?She stood before the sink in the washroom for a long time, rinsing her hands with cold water. The cold water pierced through her numb hands and right into her bones.She forced herself to remain calm, reminding herself to remember this painful lesson. Morgan Group was on the cusp of collapse, and couldn’t withstand yet another wrong move…Tonight’s banquet was organized by Mr. Sheppard.Sheppard Co. had been work
