Mr. Singh cleared his throat and said, "The chicken salad looks delicious, but I can't reach it. Ethan, get some for Miss Nolan."Ethan understood right away when he met his grandfather's gaze and replied, "Sure, Grandpa. Leave it to me."Ethan, smiling gentlemanly, fetched the tongs and put a huge portion of chicken salad onto Melody's plate."Bon appetit, Miss Nolan."His grandfather was no doubt his greatest helper. With his help, Ethan's confidence to pursue Melody was maximized.Melody could not refuse Mr. Singh's kind offer. So she smiled at Ethan politely and thanked him. Ethan smiled even brighter and said, "It's a great pleasure to serve a lady."What a gentleman.However, Melody thought that it was fortunate that she had learned about Ethan's true nature of being a womanizer years ago. If she had been one of those innocent and inexperienced noble ladies, she would have been deceived by him.Unfortunately, she was not.Melody took the salad with a smile and then tur
Melody was very skilled in medicine and reacted almost instantly. She jumped out of her chair and squatted beside Mr. Singh to examine his condition."Grandpa!"Ethan was in a terrible shock. Seeing his grandfather unconscious and unresponsive, he quickly fished out his phone from his pocket to call an ambulance."Hello, 911? I'm calling from 120 West Street. I am in Room 1102 of La Maison. An old man fainted, yes, he is unconscious. Please come quick!" Ethan was nonetheless a man who had handled difficult situations before, so he also reacted quickly. After calling the ambulance, he called his chauffeur."John, come here quick! Bring along Grandpa's heart medication kit. Quick!"Levian caught the keyword and asked, "Mr. Singh has a heart disease?"Ethan was like a hen on a hot griddle, with droplets of sweat rolling down his forehead. His speech also became much faster. "It's been a while. He suffered from atrial fibrillation and had surgery two years ago. His condition is wel
"What?""He stopped breathing already? Oh my, wouldn't it mean that he is dead?""Can he still be saved? Why isn't the ambulance here yet?"The overwhelmed crowd shouted uncontrollably, and some even tried to get closer.Those who were standing at the front saw it clearly. Mr. Singh's face was waxy pale, and his chest was not moving anymore!"Does he have any other underlying conditions? What medication has he been taking? Answer me. Now!" Melody's expression was bitingly cold and unusually serious. Her solemn aura spread throughout the room.Ethan was taken aback by her firm tone and eyes. This made him wonder if she really practiced medicine.However, John remained stubborn. The moment he heard that Mr. Singh's condition was getting worse, he paled and pushed Levian away."It's all your fault! Who are you exactly? Are you trying to harm Master Singh? Get out of my way! If anything happens to him, I will take you all to task!"Levian was not at all afraid of him.Usually,
"He woke up! Mr. Singh seems to have regained his consciousness!" shouted a man.Melody was only panting slightly after completing five cycles of CPR. She meticulously checked his vital signs once he woke up and only relaxed after making sure that redness had returned to his face, lips and nails.It was fortunate that she predicted that he would wake up after five cycles.The last image Mr. Singh remembered before fainting was the brightly lit ceiling. The moment he regained his consciousness, he looked at Melody with gratification."Melody, it's you…"He was still too weak to use his voice. Melody held his hand and comforted him, "Don't talk first. Try to breathe slowly."Everyone was astounded, and so was John Harper. The lady of the Nolan family was the real deal!"Gosh, she actually knows how to save people!""Otherwise, she wouldn't be so confident, would she!""Hey, make way quick, the doctors are here. Don't get in their way!"The manager yelled, followed by a few doct
John immediately stepped backward safe distance away. Then he bowed deeply to Melody!"I am very sorry for my recklessness, Miss Nolan. I was so anxious just now that I misjudged and offended you. To me, it's just the same as you saving me when you saved Master Bolton. You are my savior. There is nothing I can do except to bow to you to show my thanks! Thank you for saving my life!"He was a rather loyal servant.Melody knew all too well as a caregiver. She had seen many family members go out of control at a time like this. A person would easily lose his mind when he was in a state of extreme stress."Get up." Her clear and crisp voice unintentionally exuded the aura of a superior. "It's only natural for you to worry about Mr. Singh. I didn't take it personally," said Melody forgivingly.Anyway, she was really exhausted."Let's go, Levian."Levian quickly held her hand, and they left.In John's eyes, Melody's slender and upright figure was shining.He would have felt more at
Everything seemed fine for Talia. Christopher, in her opinion, had always been a man of few words.Therefore, she was wholly captivated by the idea of marrying him and intended to astound all the guests during the wedding reception.The shop assistant's compliments were insufficient for her. She walked over to take Christopher's hand in hers, and the couple looked into the mirror."Chris, I think my wedding gown would pair well with a light-colored suit. What do you think?"He responded with a soft grunt, "If that's what you prefer, I can wear a suit that matches the color of your wedding gown on our big day.""Chris, you're so nice to me!"Talia tenderly brushed her cheek on his shoulder and reacted contently, "You make me so happy.”The shop assistant witnessed their interaction from a distance. She clenched her fists tightly as envy and admiration blended in her heart.'Truly, this woman's allure is average at best. There's a huge disparity in looks and demeanor between thos
Finally, the much-anticipated grand wedding took place a week later.A violinist took center stage. The beautiful music filled the air and reverberated throughout the hall.Many of the guests present knew how to appreciate the music. "This violinist plays the tunes skillfully," one admirer exclaimed. "Even from afar, the melody has me completely enthralled. Madam Bolton certainly knows how to choose a musician." Olivia put her hand over her mouth as she giggled. "Oh, you're flattering me," she replied. "My daughter organized this performance. She claimed it's too common to play music from recordings at weddings, so she specifically hired a musician."Natasha's haughtiness was difficult to conceal. "It's my brother's wedding," she rationalized. "Of course, I need to do everything properly."Talia had successfully won over both the mother and daughter. To maintain Christopher's honor, the duo had worked tirelessly to plan a beautiful wedding.Every detail had been personal
Natasha and Olivia came up to Talia and took her by the arms.Olivia's eyes glinted with happiness. At the sight of the newlywed couple, she felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction."Oh my! Honestly, I can't imagine a more perfect match than the two of you. Okay, you two can stop chatting for the time being. There is still an hour until the wedding ceremony begins, Lia. Come with me and rest in the back for a while," Olivia suggested with a smile."Yes, you have no idea, but we have been preparing for the wedding since early in the morning," Natasha nodded and chimed in. "You can see how much my mother adores you!"Talia beamed a beautiful smile. She gave Christopher a shy, affectionate look before saying, "Mom and Natasha, I'm grateful for you two worrying about me.""Oh my! What a lovely daughter-in-law you are! Follow me to get some rest."When Talia started calling her "mom," Olivia was overjoyed.She reached out and gently encircled her.All three ladies retired to the
Luna nodded solemnly.Levian smiled, and rubbed her head. "Thanks for considering. I appreciate it."He took out his phone, and typed something.Luna watched curiously, and leaned forward to take a look. She was stunned when she saw that he had posted their photo on Facebook.She said quickly, "Delete it before they see it!"She regretted telling him that.Levian put the phone back into his pocket, and hugged her. "Everything's going to be fine. Don't worry."Luna understood his intentions, and said nothing."I promised you I'll never let you down. That's not the reason for you to be my secret lover. I don't have to please my fans. I'm rich. I'm a professional racer, not a gigolo."Levian words sounded so sincere, Luna was touched. She raised her head to look at him, stood on tiptoes, and kissed his lips.Levian was stunned. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and smiled. "You amaze me, Luna.""Huh?" Luna looked at him confusedly."You’re brave enough to kiss me now."She blush
The sales assistant grabbed the old lady’s hand, and demanded, "You must pay for this dress!"Levian grabbed the sales assistant's wrist, and threw her to the side. The sales assistant staggered a few steps away due to the force."That’s not how you should talk to an elder."Luna stood before the old lady, and looked at the sales assistant coldly.The commotion attracted the crowd. The sales assistant looked panicky."It’s none of your business!" the sales assistant yelled, staring angrily at Luna and Levian.Luna blocked the old lady from the sales assistant's sight.The sales assistant observed them, and said sarcastically, "Tourists, huh? Mind your own business."Levian stared coldly at her. The sales assistant was frightened by Levian’s gaze."It seems your parents didn't teach you good manners. I don't mind teaching you today," he said coldly.The sales assistant shuddered. She had seen all kinds of people in the store, and could feel the pressuring aura of Levian.Her
Luna and Levian saw him, and smiled.After noticing their gaze, McCain's expression returned to normal. He walked toward them casually."Luna, did you sleep well last night?" he asked with a gentle smile.Luna was disgusted by his smile, and responded coldly, "Yeah."Levian grinned playfully, and said, "How about you? You looked tired."McCain’s smile froze. He looked a little panicky, and made an excuse to leave. "It's almost time. Let's find our seats."He left quickly afterward.Luna stared at him coldly. McCain looked weird to her."Why are you staring at him? Charmed?" Levian asked. He seemed jealous.Luna looked at Levian, and smiled, "Yeah, by you."Levian’s smile widened.McCain left the building and called Matt, but Matt didn’t answer. He gripped the phone, tightly and cursed under his breath.-A spotlight shone on a man, who walked to the stage under applause.Luna also clapped."That’s Gerald Bell, the president of Bell Group, the leading Group in Franconia,"
Luna opened the door, and saw Levian leaning against the door frame with a helpless expression."What's wrong?"Levian shrugged. "The door lock of the smaller bedroom is broken. I can't get in."Luna glanced at the smaller bedroom, then looked at Levian suspiciously. "You didn't break it, right?"Levian immediately retorted, "Of course not!"Luna stared at him doubtfully.Levian touched his nose, and said in disappointment, "I'll take the sofa, then."Luna pondered, and whispered, "The master bedroom is enough for both of us."She couldn’t bear to let Levian sleep on the sofa in the living room. Besides, she trusted him.Levian smiled, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead. "Thanks, Luna."Luna blushed, and her heartbeat accelerated. She was curious, how did Levian know that?Levian put his arm on Luna's shoulders, and entered the master bedroom."You go take a shower first," he offered."Okay."Luna walked to the bathroom with her clothes. Not long after, the sound o
Benito looked at Juan, and winked at his subordinates. His subordinates walked toward the Hellers."I want to know who sent them," Benito commanded in a deep voice.The Hellers were terrified, and spilled everything.One of Benito's subordinates walked to Benito. He nodded politely to Levian, and reported in a low voice, "A man named McCain sent them."Levian's expression changed.He knew it!"What should we do with them?" Benito's subordinate asked.Benito looked at Levian, and asked, "Levian, what do you say? I can keep McCain under custody.""Teach them a lesson, and make them cooperate," Levian said with a dangerous grin. "As for McCain, I have a plan for him."He looked at Luna in the car. McCain would never take the risk if he actually had feelings for Luna and cared for her. He wondered if he was McCain's target, or if this had something to do with the business summit."Okay," Benito said. He turned around and commanded his subordinates, "Take care of them and make the
The cemetery was ahead."Levy, they slowed down," Luna said. She frowned, confused.Levian quickly turned the steering wheel, and made an emergency 180-degree turn.Luna quickly grabbed her seat belt and closed her eyes after seeing the bright lights from the car tailing them. She then looked at Levian in confusion, wondering what he was up to.She was terrified when she saw Levian drive toward that car. They were going to collide! Suddenly, she heard a sharp friction sound, and both cars passed by each other.Levian turned the steering wheel again and circled around that car.He smiled and assured Luna, "Don't be afraid, Luna. Everything will be fine. Trust me."Immediately, Luna was calm.The driver of the car tailing them seemed irritated by Levian's provocation; he sped up, and tried to slam into their car.Levian grinned; he sped up as well, and drove away from that car.The driver seemed to realize something; he quickly slowed down, and turned around to drive out of the
Luna carefully poked Levian's arm.He grabbed her hand, and quickly pulled her toward him, "I'm your boyfriend."He gritted his teeth. No one knew how much he wanted to punch McCain when he saw that slimeball approaching Luna.Luna grinned, amused. "He's just a friend. You're my sweetheart."Levian was the best! No one deserved her attention except him.Hearing that, Levian was pleased and smiled. He put his hand against Luna's palm, their fingers intertwined.The driver suddenly braked when passing through an alley, and their bodies leaned forward."What happened?" Luna asked. She looked anxiously at Matt, the local driver she and Levian hired."Something ran through just now," Matt explained while unbuckling his seat belt. "I wonder what that was."He left the car and walked around.Luna heard a meowing, and saw a black cat pass by. She pointed in the direction, and asked, "Was it that cat?"Matt looked in the direction of her finger. "I don't see any cat. Probably a stray
Levian looked handsome and gentle under the spotlight. He took the microphone, and said slowly, "It's my honor to deliver my speech today. This summit brings together business talents from all over the world..."Levian kept his eyes on Luna as he spoke, and she concentrated on his speech.They noticed each other's gaze, and smiled.McCain tried to chat with Luna but noticed her gaze. He bit his lip, jealous. He quickly took his phone, and showed it to Luna, "Hey, Luna, I found the emails."Luna was too focused on Levian's speech, so McCain’s interruption annoyed her. She grabbed it, and read the emails. While Luna was reading the email, McCain looked at Levian and smirked. Levian's expression changed, and he spoke faster.Luna briefly read two emails. They were McCain's remarks about music, and how much he missed her. She breathed a sigh of relief when she didn’t find any confession.Still, she was a bit moved by the memories. She returned the phone to McCain, and said, "Than
Levian and Luna turned around, and saw a tall man with blond hair and blue eyes."You look so beautiful today! It took me a while to recognize you."He observed Luna as he spoke.Luna frowned, uncomfortable with his gaze, and asked politely, "Do you know me?"That man was a stranger to her."Oh, don't you remember me?" The man clutched his chest as if he was hurt, and sighed. "I'm McCain. We were in the same music camp for three months, when you were seventeen."Luna thought for a while, and finally remembered him. She nodded, and smiled politely. "Oh, yes. It’s nice to meet you again.""I'm so glad I come. It's good to see you again." McCain smiled happily.Levian stared at McCain with a frightening expression that hinted at anger.Music camp, huh?He could sense McCain's intention.Luna noticed Levian's expression, and said to McCain politely, "The party is about to start. Let's take our seats."She wanted to leave, but McCain blocked her way. "I missed you so much. I l
