Chapter 10 Caught Red–Handed
Melanie concealed the hostility in her eyes and pretended to ask, “What happened? Why are you guys
here?”
“I came here to wake you up! Today is your engagement ceremony. You need to wake up early to get
your makeup done!”
Lily squeezed past her as she rushed into her room. Her eyes darted around before fixing her gaze on
the huge bed in her room. There
were some messy clothes on her bed, and the blanket appeared puffed up.
“Come on. Let’s clean this place up. The makeup artist will be here very soon,” Lily walked toward the
bed as she spoke.
Seeing this, Melanie followed closely behind her. “I’ll do it myself.”
“Let me help you!”
How could Lily give up this opportunity to expose her? She rushed to the bedside and lifted the blanket
from the bed without hesitation!
Melanie’s blanket was thrown to the floor. However, when Lily saw her bed, she was shocked.
The bed was clean. There was no man on Melanie’s bed.
Lily hunched up her shoulders and glanced at Daniel, who was also doubtful like her. ‘Didn’t Lena say a
man was in her room? Where’s the
man?‘

“I can clean up my room myself. You should save some of your energy to help your daughter clean up
her room.” Melanie picked up the
blanket from the floor as she sneered.
Lily had not figured out the meaning behind her words. She was busy talking to Daniel, “Why is Lena
still not up yet? Something’s wrong. Let me look for her.”
Hearing this, Daniel went to the next room with Lily to search for Lena. Melanie followed behind them,
and she even brought the rest of the
crowd to follow them.
“Why don’t we go and have a look?”
The people behind them were confused from the very beginning. Today was supposed to be Bryan and
Melanie’s engagement ceremony. However, in the morning, Daniel woke all of them up and told them
that something happened upstairs, urging them to join in and witness the event. What were they going
to witness? They had no idea at all, so they just tagged along with the two of them.
Lily took out another card to open Lena’s room door.
“Beep.”
She then opened the door.
The moment they saw the situation inside the room, they were both stunned. Bryan’s parents and the
directors behind them looked even
more shocked.
“Bryan, why are you in Lena’s room?”
Time seemed to stop at that moment.
“D–don’t misunderstand. I just came up here…”
Bryan’s hair was disheveled, and he just had his pants on. His shirt remained unbuttoned as he
appeared flustered while struggling to fasten the buttons.
Lena had not even had the chance to get dressed. She wrapped herself in a blanket, hiding in
embarrassment on the bed. She had been planning to have a quick one with Bryan yesterday and
leave after they were done, but…why did they sleep through the night in her room?
Without giving the shameless couple a chance to explain themselves, Melanie promptly pointed out the
flaws in Bryan’s reply. “You left your shirt unbuttoned when you came up here?”
“…” Bryan got even more panicked. He stammered as he could not get the words out of his mouth.
“Bryan, if you don’t want to marry me, just tell me. You specifically chose this day to be our
engagement ceremony and had a one–night

“I didn’t specifically pick this day to Bryan refuted.
Melanie did not leave him any room to respond as she continued, “Are you telling me that you’ve been
cheating on me all this time?”
As Melanie spoke, she worked on her emotions and started weeping.
“Why do you guys do this to me? I’ve given everything I have to you and your career, and in the end,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwhat I gained in return is your betrayal?”
How hard could it be for her to play the victim? Melanie continued expressing herself as she lamented,
“I knew you were close to her, and I thought you two were getting along well just for my sake.”
The directors of Jones Enterprise could not bear to watch anymore as they shook their heads in
disdain.
“This is absurd!”
“President Jones, is this how you raise your daughter?”
“Young Master West, you’re cheating on Young Lady Jones in broad daylight! You’d better give her an
explanation!”
Daniel had been eyeing the CEO position all along, so when he heard the directors say something like
this, he hurriedly explained,” Everybody, calm down. There must be a misunderstanding. It’s still
unclear that.”
“Yes, this is impossible. Let’s calm down and listen to their explanations.” Since Bryan’s father, Felix
West was also interested in the Joneses‘ medical business, he immediately sided with Daniel, trying to
calm them down.
However, before they could finish their sentences, a soft and weak sob disrupted their futile
explanations. “Bryan, maybe you no longer want to marry me. But by doing this, will it benefit the
reputation of the Jones and West families?”
The room fell into a chilling silence, with only Melanie’s sobs resonating loudly in the quiet room.
Melanie intentionally involved their family reputations to confront them, causing the directors of Jones
Enterprise to wear grim expressions upon hearing this.
