Karls was still thinking about Lisa, and was a little absent-minded. He didn’t come back to his senses until Alice touched him."Huh?" He looked at Alice, confused.Alice shot him a helpless look, and explained everything to him again.Karls left it to Alice to decide. "Go ahead if you think it's workable." Karls and Alice left after they agreed on the cooperation.Melody turned around, and met Christopher's eyes."Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked, puzzled."Why did you suggest the cooperation? Is there anything wrong with the materials?" he asked doubtfully.Melody recalled the information Irwin provided. The former supplier had reached an agreement with Organization V. Not only would they stop supplying the materials to Nolan Enterprise, but they would also restrict other suppliers from supplying the materials to her company.So, she needed a new partner to import the materials.She told Christopher briefly about that.Christopher frowned. "A mysterious org
Christopher immediately stood up and left the room, intending to inform Melody about that.They met at the corner."My family is in danger!""Your family is in danger!"Both exclaimed in unison.Melody had run here all the way; her hair was messy, and she was panting hard. Before she had time to think about it, she immediately took out her phone to call Vincent.Christopher also called Luke, and instructed him to send more guards to protect the Nolan family.Melody curled her fingers together nervously. "Vincent, is everyone okay? Are you hurt?" Vincent's voice came from the receiver, mixed with the background sounds of other family members talking. "Don't worry. I had a bad feeling about the culprit, so I brought everyone to a safe place."Melody was relieved. Fortunately, they were safe."Thank God." Melody breathed a long sigh of relief and cast a reassured look at Christopher, who also looked nervous."After we evacuated, our home was attacked by men in black. The culpri
Melody extended two fingers onto the screen, enlarging Cyril’s figure several times.Her gaze settled on the hands behind his back and the closed feet. How could someone maintain the same posture for so long?Lisa's words echoed in her ears. Cyril never performed this action. Her eyebrows furrowed. Could this man not be the real Cyril?Melody quickly spoke into the earpiece, "This man's habits don't quite match Lisa's description. I think he might not be your father."At the words, Philip stared in shock at the figure of his father ahead. He took several large steps, only to find a featureless mannequin. He froze in place.Melody and Christopher, through the camera on Philip's clothes, also saw the true face of this person. They hadn't expected Cyril to use a dummy to deceive them. Where could the real him be right now?Philip frowned, his face tense. He groped around the mannequin. In its lining, he found two small devices emitting sporadic blue lights. Presumably, one was the s
Melody intended to pull Christopher and Philip down, but she felt both of them holding onto her at the same time. Together, they jumped from the plane.At that moment of descent, Philip noticed that Melody was facing Christopher, who was protecting the back of her head. Witnessing this, he looked desolate and released his grip.All three fell to the ground together.Melody's head was shielded by Christopher, so she didn't feel any pain. She emerged from his embrace, breathing lightly. "Are you okay?" she asked."I'm fine," Christopher replied, lips slightly curved.Hasty footsteps echoed. Immediately, the three became alert, swiftly getting up and looking towards the source of the sound.Alice, watching them rise from the ground, appeared puzzled. "What's going on with you guys?"Melody noticed Alice's abnormal expression, and asked, "Princess Alice, you don't look well. What happened?"Alice looked ashamed. "Sorry, Miss Nolan. While you were all at the airport, my father sec
As soon as the plane landed, Melody took Lisa to meet Cyril's mistresses. In just half a day, Lisa's love vanished completely.Seeing her saddened, Melody said, "A man like that isn't worth your devotion. I have a way to make him honest and stop him from harming other women, but I need your help.""What do you need me to do?" Lisa's eyes, devoid of the earlier despair, were now filled with hatred and anger.Seeing her finally awaken completely, Melody smiled with relief. She had saved the love-stricken brain; all the effort had not been in vain.Melody smirked, and said mysteriously, "First, you need to arrange a meeting with him.""Okay."Without hesitation, Lisa took out her phone and dialed the number she had long since memorized by heart. The phone rang for a long time before someone picked up."What is it?" a familiar voice said.Listening to that familiar voice, Lisa covered the receiver, took a deep breath, then flashed a smile."Cyril, I miss you. I want to see you,"
As the abrupt ringtone echoed, Melody had an unsettling premonition. While silently praying that nothing else would go wrong, she reached for her phone.Seeing that the call was from Ethan, she relaxed and answered.Through the receiver came Ethan's carefree laughter. "Miss Nolan, long time no see."She leaned back on the sofa, and gently massaged her temples. "Yes, indeed, it's been a while."After a brief exchange, Ethan cut to the chase. "Have you figured out a solution for Modish Group?" Melody shared the agreement between Modish Group's former supplier and the Organization V with him."I have some free time lately. Why not let me handle this matter?" Ethan offered.Seeing his initiative, Melody hesitated for a moment. She was currently stretched thin. Entrusting this to Ethan might work, but the Organization V's methods were too sinister and unpredictable. It was too dangerous for him to handle this."I'm also a partner in the new energy project. Miss Nolan, do you undere
"I never expected to fall into the hands of the Nolan family in the end. It truly is a disgrace to me!" Cyril burst into mad laughter.Suddenly, the sound of a helicopter came from above.Melody and Cyril both glanced out the window at a helicopter parked outside.Observing this, she couldn't help but twitch her lips inwardly, thinking, that this man was exaggerating too much. She had instructed Christopher to bring people to subdue Cyril's men, but she hadn't anticipated such an elaborate setup, even involving a helicopter. Was it because they feared she couldn't handle Cyril, so they sent a helicopter specifically for her?Thinking of Cyril still under her blade, Melody quickly redirected her gaze back to him, her eyes carrying a hint of mockery. "Throughout your scheming, did you ever consider that the past was just a misunderstanding?""A misunderstanding? Don't deceive me!" he exclaimed.Seeing his sudden change to a fierce expression, Melody remembered Philip and sternly
"You've misunderstood." Melody turned to face Cyril. "Back then, Grandma had no choice but to abandon you in order to save you."Hearing this, Cyril paused, tilting his head back with a few hearty laughs."Melody, you truly are the dotted granddaughter of this old lady. You believe whatever she says. Abandoning me for the sake of saving me? What a touching and moving explanation! Try to make your expression a bit more sincere, and I might just believe it!" Malice ran rampant on his face."Abandonment is abandonment. No need to paint your sins with such noble colors."Seeing his disbelief and increased hatred, Melody pursed her lips, looking at him with a desire to speak but hesitated. Just as she was about to speak, her clothes were tugged by a hand. Looking behind her, Melody saw Linette gently shaking her head."Cyril..." Linette couldn't help but speak up to stop his malicious words.Cyril's face was full of mockery. "What, a couple of words about your precious granddaught
