Chapter 22
They came to a private restaurant.
After sitting down, Melanie found that there were few people here and couldn’t help feeling suspicious.
She thought. “It’s lunchtime at noon, but there are only a few people in such a big restaurant.”
A waiter greeted them affably as soon as he saw Ryan.
Melanie observed Ryan coldly and was a little surprised by his will.
Ryan changed from the Smith family’s successor to a useless and lame waste, and his fiancée even cheated on him. If it were some ordinary person, he would have become really decadent.
But Ryan seemed to be unaffected at all. He still looked arrogant.
“Mela, this place is good, isn’t it?”
While waiting for the dishes, Ryan talked to Melanie again.
Melanie was expressionless.
“Mr. Smith, let me repeat it again. Please call me Ms. Robertson, We’re not close, after all.”
Ryan was stunned for a second.
“Alright, Ms. Robertson. Let’s have lunch first. I believe that we will definitely become friends after
this meal.”
“We’ll know that afterward. Mr. Smith, what do you want to talk with me today?”
Ryan smiled.
“Ms. Robertson, don’t overthink. I just want to have lunch with you today. After all, we haven’t seen each other for seven years.
“You’re wrong, Mr. Smith. We haven’t met each other seven years ago.
“But I’ve seen you, Ms. Robertson. If it weren’t for that incident… Ahem. You would have been my fiancée.
“I don’t think so.”
Melanie sneered.
“But everything is different now.”
Ryan ignored Melanie’s sneer.
Ryan held a glass in one hand, shook the scarlet wine in it and smiled confidently.
“You might haven’t heard that your father has accepted 10 million dollars from my father and agreed to our marriage.”
Hearing this, Angie wanted to smack the table and curse at once.
Melanie grabbed Angie’s hand and sneered.
“Mr. Smith, have you forgotten that he has already renounced me seven years ago? We’re complete strangers now. He can’t control me to do anything.”
“Really?”
Ryan smiled and said, “But he said you would listen to him.”
“So ridiculous. It’s common for people to become crazy when they get old. Don’t take it seriously, Mr. Smith.”
Melanie sneered and tried to suppress her anger.
“But what if he’s not crazy?”
Ryan took a sip of wine leisurely and then lowered his voice.
“Ms. Robertson, your mother passed away at a young age. Don’t you want to know the secret behind
it?”
Hearing this, Melanie’s expression changed at once. “What do you know?”
Ryan stared at Melanie with unhidden desire in his eyes.
“I’ll tell you if you become my woman.”
Angie couldn’t stand it anymore. She grabbed the glass and poured the wine on Ryan’s face.
“How dare you?!”
Suddenly, a sweet voice sounded.
“Melanie, are you dating Ryan?”
Hearing this voice, Melanie knew that it was definitely her dear sister Vanessa.
As expected, Vanessa held William’s arm and came over in a red dress.
“Melanie, it’s been so long since you came back. We haven’t had a talk before. How about coming home and having dinner tonight?”
Vanessa smiled coquettishly. Most of her body was clinging to William’s body.
Melanie felt sick at the voice and the harsh red dress.
“No need.”
“Alas, Melanie. I haven’t introduced William to you.”
Vanessa smiled.
“I’m relieved to see you get along well with Ryan, Melanie. When you marry into the Smith family, we can be together again.”
Watching Vanessa’s scarlet lips moving, Melanie felt her mind went blank.
She couldn’t see things clearly.
“Shut up, bitch. When did you see Melanie get along well with this jerk?”
Angie became really aggressive when she got angry.
“I’ve heard that you are a famous slut in Beloris. I’m afraid Mr. William Smith is not enough for you. Why don’t you marry the two brothers together? There’s an engagement, anyway.”
Vanessa covered her face and pretended to cry.
“How… How dare you insult me?
“Melanie, are you gonna watch me being bullied?”
Melanie sneered.
“You’re wrong. This is not an insult. It’s the truth. As the saying goes, good advice is harsh to the ear. I think you can do as the advise, Ms. Robertson.”
Vanessa forced out a few tears.
“How can you do that, Melanie?
“We’re sisters who grew up together.”
“We were already no longer sisters seven years ago, and we’ll never be sisters afterward. Don’t say that again. I don’t have a sister like you.”
After saying that, Melanie grabbed Angie and was about to leave.
But William shouted, “How dare you wanna leave after scolding my people?!”
Then William slapped three times.
Melanie had a bad feeling.
The next second, Angie stood in front of Melanie to protect her.
“Beloris is not even qualified to get our Thomas family’s attention.” Angie sneered. “Let me see what
you wanna do.”
“You’ll find out soon!”
William sneered.
Suddenly, a rumble sounded in the restaurant. This ordinary restaurant suddenly changed.
Only then did Angie realize that this restaurant was only a part of this floor.
It was isolated from the floor and had no windows. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
All walls were fitted with transparent mirrors.
Behind a mirror, Angie clearly saw several men and women doing something intimate.
And they were surrounded by cameras.
Although Melanie couldn’t see, she had excellent hearing.
Melanie heard Angie’s exclamation, and she also knew what those strange sounds meant.
“Well, the Thomas family doesn’t have such beautiful scenery, does it?”
William was proud of their astonishment, laughed wildly and said, “I’ll teach you how to organize your words later.”
“I didn’t expect the Smith family to be so dirty and the media tycoon to be such a bastard.”
Angie sneered and then grabbed Melanie’s arm more tightly.
“It’s fine to let you know. You can’t escape, anyway!”
William smiled grimly and then turned to look at Ryan.
“Ryan, you’re awesome. You brought two beauties here at once. Do you still want Ms. Robertson?”
“Of course. Why not?”
Ryan suddenly pushed the wheelchair away and stood. up.
Angie was shocked and said, “You… You’re not name!”
Hearing this, Ryan burst into laughter.
“See, William? When I pretend to be lame, the beauties are completely unguarded.
“Beauties generally sympathize with the weak and have no resistance.”
“Ryan, you’re better at tricking people. I just want some practical benefits.”
William glanced at Angie with an obscene expression.
“Alright, William. I even risk my reputation to let you have fun. Aren’t you satisfied enough?”
The two of them looked at each other and then burst into laughter.
