I asked in bewilderment, "Who?" With a serious expression, Carol repeated, "Melvern is requesting a meeting." Hearing her repeat Melvern's name, I was genuinely surprised. I had a premonition that he would appear beforesooner or later.

While Liora was joyfully bustling about during this period, he remained unusually quiet, which didn't make much sense.

He looked dashing in a well-fitted suit. His eyes, however, were something I couldn't quite appreciate, almost repulsive.

As he entered, I conducted myself professionally, stepping away from the desk and gesturing for him to sit.

Seated at my desk, I asked, "Mr. Melvern, what brings you here?" I cut to the chase, as I had no intention of being polite with him.

I did not know much about him, but based on his investment in Liora and his methods of seizing other companies, I could not form a favorable opinion of him. Moreover, the funds he invested were shady at best. His persistent interest inand my company madewary, and his gaze was particularly disdainful.

If he could manipulate Liora and have influence over her family, it spoke volumes about his character. Melvern sat on the sofa next to me, earnestly smiling. "I hope my sudden visit didn't disturb you, Ms. Chloe." I had to force a smile. "It's not exactly a disturbance, but it is a bit strange. After all, you and I have no business dealings.

I pondered what kind of collaboration he could possibly be suggesting. Teaming up with Liora and wanting to collaborate withseemed like a joke.

I didn't believe that he was unaware of the animosity between Liora and me. Therefore, his coming to discuss collaboration withnow seemed illogical.

My eyes remained fixed on him, unyielding. "Mr. Melvern, could you specify the nature of this collaboration?" Seeing my lack of enthusiasm, he seemed a bit disappointed. "It seems, Ms. Chloe, you're not very interested in working with me." I composed myself and spoke directly, "I'm in the construction business, which I'm sure you're aware of. While I don't know much aware of.
