Melody, vexed by their argument, cut them off coldly. "Stop wasting time bickering! If you're going, then go!"Seeing her expression, Albert and Christopher immediately quieted down.The private plane soon arrived, and the three of them boarded together. During the flight to Mrauca, Melody wasted no time, continuously reviewing information about Organization V.Sitting on either side of Melody, Christopher and Albert seemed somewhat displeased with each other. In the presence of Melody, they restrained themselves.The plane soon landed in Mrauca.Irwin was already waiting there. He hurried to Melody, looking tense. "Miss, what's the plan now?""We split up. You take your men and watch over Organization V's stronghold, while I'll go find the head of Modish Group’s supplier," she ordered swiftly."Understood."Once given the command, Irwin immediately led his men towards Organization V's base. Melody, with a few of her subordinates and Christopher and Albert, headed for Modish Gr
"It'm not. I wanted to ask him how the commercial shooting went," Melody said. She leaned back and closed her eyes tiredly.Albert was still jealous, but he didn’t disturb her rest.They went to the hotel where Irwin stayed. Upon returning to their rooms, Melody and Christopher received a strange text message at the same time.[Exchange Isaiah and Ethan with Bolton Enterprise, Nolan Enterprise, and Singh Corporation.]Melody went out to discuss with Christopher. As soon as she went out of her room, she saw Christopher coming out of his."I got a text message," they said in unison.Christopher turned sideways and opened his door wider, then raised his eyebrows at Melody.She pursed her lips, then walked into his room.Inside, she curled her lips and sneered. "It’s definitely Organization V. They’re greedy, alright!" Christopher sat on a chair, tapping his fingers lightly on the armrest. The frequency was consistent with the pointer of the platinum watch on his wrist. A dark lig
Melody glanced at Irwin.Irwin got the hint. He immediately nodded in understanding. While Melody was talking with Melissa, he casually fiddled with his phone. In truth, he was instructing his men to look into the relationship between Cyril, Leroy, and Melissa.Melody asked carefully, "Why are you interested in Cyril?"Melissa smiled, but there was no humor in it. "I don’t have to tell you that." Melody frowned. She could only look for another way. While observing Melissa’s expression, she said casually to Irwin, "By the way, Irwin. Remind Leroy about the shooting today."She noticed a slight change in Melissa's expression when Leroy was mentioned.The next moment, the door burst open and in strode Lant. Melissa’s eyes flashed, and she suddenly said loudly, "That’s out of the question! Give me the shares of the companies, or they die!"Melody was stunned for a moment. What was wrong with Melissa?She glanced at Lant, who had already sat down, and frowned. This was confusing.
Melody kicked Lant in the abdomen.Caught off guard by this attack, Lant staggered back several steps. His expression turned ferocious. He rushed forward, and threw a punch at Melody.Melody dodged; she bent and grabbed his waist, and threw him behind her.Melissa smashed the cup on the coffee table; she picked up a glass shard, and pressed it against Lant's neck."How dare you betray me?!" Lant roared. He glared at her, looking positively murderous, as if he wanted to kill her then and there.Facing his hateful eyes, Melissa sneered, "You’re wrong. You never own my loyalty in the first place."Lant's expression grew more and more terrifying as she spoke. He ignored the shard and tried to strangle Melissa, but Melody stepped on his arm before he could.Lant felt a bone-piercing pain; the shard on his neck pierced his throat, causing a tingling sensation. Panicked, he screamed. Melissa made a small cut on his neck without damaging his blood vessels. Seeing Lant so fearful, she
"Get him the best doctor—now!" Christopher said.Melissa became nervous when she heard Leroy's name. "What happened to Leroy?!""He’s poisoned, and is in the operating room," Christopher told her truthfully."What?!" Melissa's voice rose, and her eyes widened.She finally got the chance to meet her son after so many years, only to discover he was poisoned. The revelation was too much for her; her breathing turned unsteady, and she eventually fainted.Melody hurriedly laid her on the ground, and pressed her chest continuously.Christopher looked at her skilled first aid techniques, wondering. She looked like a professional. He wondered how many more secrets about she had in store for him, waiting to be revealed.However, Melody didn’t even look at him. All her focus was on Melissa.Not long after, Melissa coughed.Melody stopped, and sighed in relief. "Are you okay?"Melissa seemed not to have heard the question, instead muttering, "My son..."She looked miserable and sad. Su
Melody signaled to Christopher with her eyes; they left the ward together, leaving space for Melissa and Leroy."Have you found out who poisoned Leroy?" Melody asked in a low voice."Lant bribed a man who met Leroy in the orphanage to poison Leroy. He’s been secretly monitoring Leroy for some time," Christopher said slowly.So, Lant had already made up his mind long ago.Melody lowered her head to ponder for a moment, then spat coldly, "That man is cunning and insidious."Then, she turned Christopher. "If he knows Leroy isn’t dead, he’ll try again."Lant had lost Organization V, and he wouldn’t forgive Melissa for that. Thinking that, her expression became solemn. "Enough talk about Leroy. Let's talk about us." Christopher looked at Melody. "I didn’t know you can do surgery."Melody licked her lips after realizing she couldn’t hide it anymore. As she thought about how to answer him, Luke appeared. He had heard what Christopher said.Shit! Did Christopher find out that Melody
Christopher was jealous, but he couldn’t do anything now.He turned around, looking livid. His jawline was tense, and he gritted his teeth in frustration without making a sound.At the same time, Philip, far away on the Goska Island, was watching the sky thoughtfully. He had complicated feelings regarding Albert, who was involved in this mess because of him. After pondering for a moment, he took out his phone and called Albert.Albert's emotions were stable after being comforted by Melody, but he was down again when he received Philip's call. This was their first call in a long time.Philip's gentle voice came from the other end. "Al, how are you?"That familiar voice almost made Albert cry, but he held it back."I'm not your biological brother. You don't have to do this," Albert said calmly, trying not to sound aggressive.There was a moment of silence on both ends.Philip heard the frustration and displeasure in Albert’s words, and frowned slightly. "You’re still my little br
Luna had been pestered and kissed for several minutes just now. Her face was a bit red at the moment. When she was about to compromise, she suddenly saw Christopher and Melody behind Levian.She instantly grew hot, and the blush spread from her cheeks to her neck."No more!" Luna roared, angry and ashamed as she pushed Levian away. Glaring angrily at him, she pretended to be calm and greeted Melody before making a hasty exit. Levian, Melody, and Christopher stood there. Their eyes met, and the air between them was awkward."Look what you've done, Bolton!" Levian put his hands in his pockets, glaring at Christopher with resentment and displeasure.Christopher remained poker-faced, his posture modest and polite. "Don't look at me like that. I drove her back."Levian was still brooding over what had just happened. He snorted, and turned to Melody. "Mel, how are things going with Organization V?"Since Levian didn’t know about Leroy yet, Melody didn’t tell him about Lant. She did n
