Chapter 195 (Part One)
Melissa didn't know why the Secretary of Mrs. Fannie came and waited her at door, as if she had intentions to do this. Melissa felt guilty when she mentioned Mrs. Fannie at this critical moment, not to mention that her secretary was here.
Melissa thought for a while and thought she should get out of the car. She couldn't hide from her all the time, and once she did, her momentum would be weak, and it would be difficult to fight against Mrs. Fannie. Therefore, she let the car of the company go back first and got off and then went over on her own.
Mrs. Fannie's secretary walked up and greeted her respectfully, "Hello, Melissa."
"Secretary Yang, what can I do for you?" Melissa greeted her too.
"Melissa, would you like to meet Madam?" Secretary Yang pressed the folder onto her dress with both hands and said seriously.
Melissa wanted to refuse, because she knew that nothing good would happen. She couldn't win a woman like Mrs. Fannie. She said, "Secretary Yang, I'm sorry. I went home to fetch something. I have to go to the filming crew to work on a few night scenes later."
"Madam has informed several directors that Melissa doesn't need to attend the night scene tonight." Secretary Yang replied coldly. Seeing that Melissa was about to speak again, she interrupted, "The company's affairs have been arranged. You is free tonight."
Knowing that she couldn't refuse, Melissa could only lower her head. After a long while, she sighed softly, "Well, but I just came back from the film crew. Could you allow me to freshen up and change my clothes before going to Mrs. Fannie?" "It might be impolite for me to go there in this way."
Secretary Yang glanced at Melissa's clothes and said, "It's not an important occasion. Melissa doesn't need to wear a grand dress. And madam is nearby. Melissa can go back as long as you come over for a while. It won't take you too much time. Is that okay?"
Secretary Yang asked in a colder tone. Obviously, there was no room for negotiation. It seemed that even if she didn't agree, she had to at least agree.
Melissa stared at her for a while, closed her mouth tightly, suppressed the tension, and then said, "Well, thank you, secretary Yang. Just show me the way."
"You're welcome!" Secretary Yang nodded at Melissa, then made a gesture of invitation. At once, a car slowly drove out from a corner and stopped in front of them.
Then Melissa got in the car and left with secretary Yang.
Along the way, Melissa quietly took out her phone and was about to message Colin, who called her abruptly. Perhaps it was because she was too nervous, or perhaps it was because the atmosphere in the car was too quiet that the ringtone sounded especially loud when it rang. Scared, Melissa looked at the name of the caller, hesitating whether she should answer it or not. Finally, she picked it up.
"Darling, where are you?" "Do you want to have a candlelight dinner tonight?" Colin seemed to be very happy from his tone.
But Melissa was very nervous. She took a secret look at secretary Yang, and found that she was also looking at her. The look in her eyes was neither scolding nor rebuke, but it was cold to the bone, making her give up telling the truth for a moment. "Oh……" I am…… "I have to work on the film tonight and I have to go to the airport to watch a night scene. I'm afraid that I can't go home with you. You have to eat by yourself!"
"Are you so busy?" "I've told director Li not to let you act in this way night, haven't I?" Colin didn't believe it.
"Yeah, but it happens once in a while. It's only occasionally." "I can't make it tonight anyway. You have to take care of the dinner. That's it."
Melissa excused herself to Colin, and hung up. She didn't dare to look at secretary Yang. She just wanted to dispel the guilty in her mind. After glancing at her, secretary Yang turned her head away and continued to look at the scenery ahead. Along the way, she didn't talk to Melissa.
Melissa didn't know why she felt guilty. Was she afraid that Mrs. Fannie would take revenge on her? She was afraid of Mrs. Fannie, but she felt guilty that she had betrayed her.
Back then, she had sworn to Mrs. Fannie that she would not have no intentions to Colin and would not be reconciled with Colin again. But now, she had taken action against herself. She not only betrayed Mrs. Fannie, but also herself. She didn't know how to explain it to Mrs. Fannie.
At the thought of her decisions, Melissa had no obstinate attitude towards Colin's love affair, which made her hesitate and unsure whether her decision was right or not. Why did so many people oppose their relationship? Was it really the destiny that they were not the right one?
They drove for a while and then stopped. Just as secretary Yang had expected, Mrs. Fannie was in a nearby restaurant. Secretary Yang was scrupulous in business. She said nothing more except for inviting her to come. Since Melissa couldn't communicate with her, she could only guess why Mrs. Fannie would meet her.
Along the way, they took the elevator upstairs and went into the private room. To Melissa's surprise, not only Mrs. Fannie, but also a young and beautiful lady were present today.
The moment Melissa caught sight of Mrs. Fannie, who sat at the top seat, she then noticed the miss sitting next to Mrs. Fannie. She was very beautiful. She had a pretty face and pretty features. Even without any make-up, she looked beautiful. What's more, the make-up that she wore was more attractive. She wore a white slim dress and the black of her hair was so gorgeous. At the same time, she was young, about 22 years old. She had both the youth and the elegance of an aristocratic lady.
The moment Melissa saw the lady, the lady that her grandpa had mentioned on the phone reminded her of Miss Linn. Her instinct connected them, and she saw her sitting next to Mrs. Fannie so intimately. Did it really have something to do with Mrs. Fannie?
Mrs. Fannie said, "Melissa is here?" "Come and take a seat!" This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
Mrs. Fannie said in a polite manner, which made Melissa believe that she no longer held hostility towards her. Therefore, she nodded with a smile and walked towards the table and sat down.
Mrs. Fannie introduced the woman to her and said, "She is the daughter of Lin family, named Linn, a famous family in Macau. She is also Colin's fiancée."
Finally, Melissa got the point: She was the daughter of Lin family, a famous family in Macau. Also she was Colin's fiancée. It was Miss Linn, Colin's fiancée, who had met her parents before! Looking at Miss Linn, Melissa had mixed feelings.
Miss Linn was also looking at her, but with graceful and beautiful smile on her face, she said to Mrs. Fannie, "Aunt, you don't have to introduce us to each other like this. Actually, Melissa and I are old friends, and we knew each other before."
"Old friends?" Mrs. Fannie was confused.
Melissa was confused and said to Linn Lin, "Did Miss Linn and I know each other before?"
Linn Lin answered, covering her mouth with hands, "No. I met you when I was a child. You was only about five or six years old and I was only three years old. So we couldn't remember her. My parents said we met and played together."
"Five or six years old. When did we meet?" Melissa still frowned. She didn't expect that she had such an old acquaintance.
