Chapter 221
“Alright, tell me after you get home.”
Just as Briana was about to leave, Melody couldn’t help but say, “Briana, you’re not in a relationship,
are you? Why are you always on your phone replying to messages?”
Unexpectedly sharp, Briana put away her phone, opening her mouth with a nonchalant expression:
“No, I was just replying to a client’s message.”
“Oh, let’s go for hot pot tonight.”
“Um, okay.”
The time to get off work came quickly, and Melody took Briana to a newly opened hot pot restaurant
next to MY Corporation.
After they had ordered their food, Melody turned to Briana and said, “Maxim saved you this time,
shouldn’t you properly thank him?”
“How should one have expressed gratitude?”
“How would I know that? But he rushed over as soon as he knew you were trapped in Vertown. I don’t
believe he doesn’t have any feelings for you!”
Briana pursed her lips, took a sip of water, and surprisingly, did not refute Melody.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Honestly, haven’t you ever considered getting back together with him?”
Briana choked on the water and coughed violently a few times.
Melody quickly handed her a few tissues, “Calm down, I was just saying it casually, I’m not asking you
to be with him right now.”
After a few seconds of silence, Briana suddenly spoke up, “Do you think I should get back together with
him?”
Melody pondered for a few seconds, then shook her head and said, “Honestly, given his relationship
with Kiley, it’s impossible for them to cut off contact. If you get back together with him, you might
continue to be disgusted by Kiley. I suggest not to.”
“However, if a man had appeared and saved me when I was on the verge of death, I wouldn’t know if I
would have fallen for him.”
Briana’s fingers, clutching the water cup, were turning slightly white, her eyes downcast, lost in thought.
Soon, the dish was served.
As the two chatted, Melody brought up Oliver.
Recently, Oliver had been trying to pursue Melody again.
At first, it might have been out of guilt and a desire to make it up to Melody, but later on, he fell in love
with Melody again and wanted to win her back.
These past few days, I had tried every possible way to invite Melody for a meal several times, but
Melody remained unmoved.
Briana couldn’t help but frown upon hearing this, “Didn’t he used to really like Adeline? Why has he
suddenly changed as if he’s a different person?!”
Melody shook her head, “I’m not sure, maybe he suddenly lost his
mind. But I have absolutely no feelings for him now, and it’s impossible for us to be together again.”
If she truly let go of a relationship, she really let it go. No matter what Oliver did, she wouldn’t change a
bit.
“Adeline used to like Oliver that much? She didn’t pester him?”
Melody sneered, “Her father has recently invested in several plays, and she’s been busy acting and
networking. She doesn’t have time for Oliver. However, I heard she’s been getting along well with a rich
second–generation who’s family is in the film industry. She probably has already forgotten who Oliver
is!”
Thinking about Oliver’s defense of Adeline the few times we met, Briana felt a little sad.
With the Newman family’s financial resources, she would have had a much better career in the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmentertainment industry if she had been willing to help Adeline, but Adeline gave it all away.
Neither she nor Oliver was worthy of sympathy.
After finishing their meal, the two people left the hot pot restaurant.
Seeing the black Maybach parked by the roadside, surprise flashed in Briana’s eyes. She then said to
Melody, “Melody, you go back first. I want to take a walk alone.”
She had also figured things out about herself and Maxim.
She just hadn’t figured out how to compensate Maxim yet.
After Melody left, Briana walked over to Maxim’s car, opened the door and sat inside.
Maxim glanced at her, whispering, “Finished eating? I’ll take you
home.”
“No need, I had something to tell you.”
After she had said what she intended to say later, Maxim would probably have kicked himself out of the
car.
Maxim’s hand, clutching the document, suddenly tightened as he turned to look at her.
“You’ve thought this through, haven’t you?”
“Yeah.”
Briana nodded and began with a serious look: “I think we may still not be suitable.”
