"Oh, my! You're a beautiful car designer. I've heard a lot about you." Melvin's face immediately beamed. He reached out his hand and held Jenna's tightly, showing no signs of letting go. Jenna was sure she had not extended her hands towards Melvin. Out of her instinct of self-preservation, she would never reach out to shake hands with such a Don Juan. However, Melvin gently stroked her hand intimately while smirking devilishly. "Do you mind if I ask how old you are, milady? Are you engaged in matrimony?" Melvin continued to ask, wrestling with his drunkenness. He approached her with a smile. There was an awkward expression on Jenna's face. She pursed her red lips tightly and did not know how to reply for a moment. When she got closer, she realised that Melvin was actually quite handsome, especially with his amorous eyes. He was more beautiful than a woman. "Master Adames, I am..." Steffan frowned when saw the malicious look on Melvin's face as he hel
"Got it," Alvin answered. He glanced around and immediately asked, "Mr. Richards, where should we put Melvin's gift? It seems like there isn't any gift table. I mean, the party is a little chaotic." "Don't worry about it. I have my ways with Melvin," Hansen immediately said. As the president of the Richards Group, he was not afraid of failing to hire Melvin Adames. He was already honoring him by attending his birthday banquet. Melvin was truly a jerk in every sense of the word. They had been there for so long, yet no one came to receive them. What was more, this looked less like a normal banquet and more like a frat party. He had heard a little about Melvin Adames. At that moment, a special person could only use a very special method to deal with him. "Alright, why don't you take a seat? I'll go and look around," Alvin said as he led Hansen to a dark corner. Then, he left in search of Jenna. Steffan led Jenna around the hall before finding a place to
"Miss Lexantra, Yintern Group is a well-known company and I really admire your work. It's an honor to have you here." Melvin was quick to react, letting go of Jenna's hands and bowing slightly, an honest and sincere expression on his face. His expression put Jenna at ease. "Master Adames, I'm here today on behalf of our company to celebrate your birthday, and to extend a sincere invitation for you to join Yintern Group." Jenna knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If he continued going on like this, she might not have a chance to show him her capabilities. Not wanting to let the opportunity pass her by, she immediately revealed the real reason for her visit. "Oh, so that's the reason for your visit." Melvin's expression changed to one of surprise. "I'm really sorry. I wasn't aware that you had such an idea." Jenna narrowed her eyes as she sized him up, trying to figure out how sincere he was being. Melvin looked quite serious, which was a ra
Melvin approached her and caught her swaying body. Pressing his lips close to her ear, he whispered, "Miss Lexantra, you're really adorable. I don't like to play games. It's more fun to be direct. I concocted this cocktail specially for you to ensure that we'll have a romantic and memorable time together." Jenna's head was getting heavier and heavier, and she could barely hear what he was saying. She only knew that her vision was starting to get more and more blurry by the second, her head was spinning, and her body was going limp. Melvin stared at Jenna's face with a cold smile on his face. On the other side of the living room, Alvin quickly left Jenna's side and headed in Hansen's direction. "Mr. Richards, I've found her. I've found Miss Lexantra." He said excitedly the moment he sat down beside Hansen. "Really?" Hansen's eyes lit up, as if a ray of light had pierced through his darkened vision. With a look of excitement, he stood up and said, "Whe
Melvin's body was practically lifted up by Hansen as he dragged him outside. He was in a state of extreme panic and cried out in a strangled voice, "What are you trying to do? I didn't do anything." The man's hand seemed as dangerous as a knife that would stab him in the heart at any time. He was also extremely strong. Melvin knew that he was no match for him at all. On the other side of the door were two pairs of couples whispering with each other. They were shocked to see the two men coming through the door. Seeing that it was Master Adames, one of the men stepped forward to intervene. "If you don't want to get into trouble, then get the hell out of here. I won't hesitate to beat all of you up too." The dangerous aura that was emitting from Hansen's body was like boiling lava that could instantly burn a person to death. His words were sinister and terrifying. The man was stunned, feeling a sense of danger. As expected, he didn't want to get into trouble. He tu
Once they were at the hospital, Steffan restrained the storm that was brewing in his heart and told the doctor what had happened. The doctor was a professional indeed and was quick to grasp the overall situation. Humans and their sly tricks. Just to be on the safe side, the doctor ordered the nurse to take Jenna's blood sample to run some tests. The results confirmed his suspicions, and he prescribed some medicine accordingly. "Don't worry. She consumed something laced with sedatives, but I've given her an antidote. She'll wake up soon with no side effects," said the doctor before heading out of the room. "Okay, thank you, doctor." Steffan finally let out a sigh of relief. After the doctor left, Steffan's face turned cold and stony. Sedatives? Steffan fumed to himself. Melvin, you dirty dog! You hateful person! He narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists. Soon after, he received a phone call. After covering Jenna with a quilt, he wa
"Don't worry. Someone has already dealt with him, and I've forced him to apologize. I'm sure this kind of thing will never happen again." Sitting on the edge of the bed with a look of concern on his face, he asked, "Are you all right? How are you feeling?" Jenna was confused, not quite understanding the meaning of Steffan's words. Looking at the guilt on his face, she smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just slept for a while." "That's good." Steffan felt that he could relax at last. He reached out and held Jenna's cold hand. "If you don't feel well, I'll call the doctor over. Your health is the most important thing. Don't take it for granted." Jenna gave an easy smile, lifted the quilt, and got down from the bed. Then, she took a few steps around the room. "Look, don't I seem just fine? I'm really all right. Let's go back." She picked up her handbag that was on the bed and was about to leave. Steffan looked very worried, "No, I'll be worried
"Steffan, there's no need to see me off. It's very late. You should head home early." Jenna really wasn't used to the cold weather. She was chilled to the bone. As the cold wind swept over her, she felt as if her whole body was encased in a block of ice. Even her voice was trembling as she spoke. Steffan was about to take off his coat and give it to Jenna, but after saying those words, she ran quickly into the dormitory. It was just too cold! She couldn't bear it anymore, not even for another minute. Steffan stood rooted to the spot, sighing heavily as he looked at her retreating back. After a while, he returned to his car and left. "Mr. Richards, are you sure you want to go up and visit Madam at this late hour?" Alvin had observed that Jenna seemed to be in a hurry and it was already very late at night. Although Steffan and the paparazzi had left, he felt that Jenna must be exhausted by now. However, Hansen raised his eyebrows sharply. "Why not? I f
