On the stairs, Leo's subordinate cautiously asked, "Mr. York, are you planning to make Melanie happy tonight with this event? Are you hoping she’ll agree after you talk about the sponsorship of her perfume?" Leo neither confirmed nor denied this. The subordinate was puzzled. "But don’t you just want to have more opportunities to get close to her and make her happy by sponsoring the perfume she created? Isn't that too indirect?" Leo glanced sharply at him. "How many times have I said that Grandfather's instructions need careful consideration? If he arranges for me to get close to Melanie in such an indirect way, how can I aggressively pursue her? If I mess up, I'll be handing over the Yorks’ business to Harlow on a silver platter!" "Yes, Mr. York. It’s my mistake." The subordinate bowed his head. "In the future, speak less nonsense and use your brain more!" Leo descended the stairs and looked toward Melanie, who was chatting with others. "Being a bit indirect has its benef

Surrounded by a mix of genuine and insincere compliments, Duke Wilhelm casually dealt with them while carefully observing Leo's expression. After a while, as the flattering individuals dispersed, Melanie seized the opportunity to express her doubts. "Duke Wilhelm, I feel both honored and perplexed to receive your invitation to tonight's birthday banquet. Could you clarify something for me?" Duke Wilhelm chuckled. At a time like this, he would say whatever pleased Melanie. "My daughter Grace offended you before. Since I'm hosting friends from Harbor City tonight, it's only natural to invite you as well. Consider it my way of apologizing on her behalf." "You’re too kind." A sharp glint flashed in Melanie's eyes, and she thought of a plan. "I just saw Miss Grace at the banquet, and she seemed quite interested in the card I wrote. Perhaps she spoke well of me in front of you, making you appreciate my creativity?" Duke Wilhelm squinted his eyes, and subtly clenched his fist. Melan

Nathan’s tone suddenly changed. He looked as though he was replying to Melanie, but Melanie knew that he was targeting Jeffrey.She turned around, and put her wine glass down before leaving. “I’m sorry, but please excuse me.” With that, she returned to the banquet hall, leaving the two men to face off on the balcony.“Thankfully, my adoptive mother is fine. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be standing here talking to each other today!” Nathan’s bloodshot eyes were filled with threatening rage. “Jeffrey Morgan, I didn’t expect you to go against me for the sake of that woman!”“She’s fine because I engaged the best doctor for her,” Jeffrey said unflinchingly.“So should I be thanking you instead?”“No need for that.” Jeffrey went on with a look of disdain, “I engaged a doctor for her simply because I don’t want to implicate the innocent. It doesn’t mean I’m trying to keep a backdoor open for myself and keep our alliance alive.”Nathan was angered by Jeffrey’s unyielding stance. “Very well!

“I came to Harbor City on behalf of the Yorks, and have been so busy with work that I’ve had no chance to invite everyone to my house for a gathering. I’d like to take this chance to invite everyone here at Duke Wilhelm’s birthday celebration.”Leo walked toward Duke Wilhelm and his children, and went o, “I will send my men to personally deliver your invitation cards to you. As for the duke’s family, I will take this chance to hand them their invitation cards in person.”He took out the invitation cards and handed one to Duke Wilhelm first before giving out the rest of the cards to the Duke’s children. Grace was last in line of four children, and she waited expectantly for her turn. Her shameless flattery just now must have moved Leo! Leo was full of smiles as he gave out invitation cards in front of everyone, inviting their family to the Yorks’ residence for a gathering. That clearly meant that he was very pleased with her. That way, her father wouldn’t keep harping on her mista

The next day, Melanie packed a light luggage and met up with Mr. Smith. The weather was excellent, and they went up Mount Coloss together. Mr. Smith’s assistant drove the car, which was filled with various professional filming equipment.When they arrived at their destination, Mr. Smith took a few scenic shots of the wilderness in Mount Coloss. “Didn’t you say you were partially inspired by the potpourri made by the family on the mountain in concocting the fragrance? Shouldn’t we go to their house and snap some photos? That’d be so much more meaningful than just scenic shots of Mount Coloss,” he said.“I think so, too.”Melanie smiled.“That’s why I wanted to invite you to stay at the family’s house for the night. I even brought two sets of perfume blending tools for the old lady. We have to get her permission first before we can take any photos, though.”“Don’t worry about that. I have my ethics, too.”Mr. Smith instructed his driver to turn back in the direction that Melani
