Chapter 18 She Wants to Meet You

Things were going awry with the cheating pair.

A rising star’s secret rendezvous with her cousin’s fiancé and getting pregnant before marriage. What a

juicy piece of news!

After leaving the nurse’s station, Melanie took out her phone and saw a message from Annie Snow. (By

the way, the Wests have been claiming that your engagement to Bryan remains intact and that it’ll be

held again in a week. What now?)

Melanie replied: [Don’t worry.]

She quickly typed a message, [Tomorrow, I’ll have the entire world know that if I marry Bryan West, I’ll

be the dumbest person on Earth!]

Annie asked with anticipation. [Does this mean we’re in for a show tomorrow?]

[Exactly! But I’ll need your help.] Melanie replied: (Where are you? Let’s meet.]

The two found a spot at a nearby coffee shop and spent half an hour coordinating their plans.

In the end, Melanie handed Annie the access card to Bryan’s office, a card he had given her in the

past.

Annie clutched the access card tightly, her anticipation clear as she exclaimed. “Tomorrow morning.

Bryan and Lena will become the biggest joke Harbor City has ever seen!”

Right after seeing Annie off, Melanie’s phone rang. It was a call from her mother’s assistant, Mr.

Lincoln.

“Miss Melanie, your mother has presented your proposal for the new perfume lineup. The board

members are dissatisfied with it. Would you like to come over in person?”

“Understood, I’ll be there immediately.”

Mr. Lincoln had been her father’s most trusted assistant during his lifetime and had continued to assist

her mother in managing the

company after her father’s passing. He would not have called unless the situation was urgent.

Just as Melanie was about to hail a cab.

“Click.”

A luxury MPV suddenly pulled up beside her. The window rolled down halfway, revealing Stephen

Morgan with his hat shielding his face.

Thinking about what Jeffrey Morgan had said about marrying Stephen Morgan if her foot was healed in

three days, Melanie’s gaze darkened. She got into the car and asked, “Do you need something from

me?”

“Can’t I see you if I don’t need anything from you?” Stephen replied playfully.

“If you don’t need anything, don’t waste my time. I’m busy,” she said, ready to leave.

Stephen hurriedly changed his tone. “Alright, alright. The old lady’s coming home from overseas; and

she insists on meeting you. You have to come to my place this Sunday.”

“Why?” Melanie asked.

“Because you’re to be her granddaughter–in–law! When she heard that she would be getting a

granddaughter–in–law, she decided to rush back home. Just view it as something you’re doing to

comfort her. It won’t take much of your time.” Stephen explained cautiously, fearing

Melanie’s refusal.

However, Melanie had no intention of agreeing. “I agreed to a secret marriage in exchange for a

condition with President Morgan, but meeting the elders…that’s a completely different matter.”

With that, she turned and got out of the car. Stephen hurriedly caught up from behind, saying, “We can

negotiate on that. Just mention whatever you want.”

Melanie paused, a sudden idea crossing her mind. She asked, “Are you sure?”

“Absolutely,” Stephen replied earnestly, nodding.

“Alright then. As long as you become the brand ambassador for Jones Enterprise’s pertume lineup, I’ll

agree, Melanie said assuredly.

Considering Stephen’s carefree and extravagant nature, the prospect of him having a wife must indeed

be exciting for the elders in the family. Yet, that was precisely why Melanie dared agree to the secret

marriage with him. The man would lose interest quickly, and that would give her the freedom to leave at

any time.

“Jones Enterprise produces perfume for women. Am I suitable for that?” Stephen asked with hesitation.

“We’re about to launch a line of men’s perfume as well. Don’t worry, I’ll send you the proposal. You can

discuss it with your agent. If it looks good to you, come to Jones Enterprise in half an hour. We’ll

discuss further.” Melanie assured him.

Seeing Melanie brimming with confidence, Stephen could not help but chuckle to himself.

It was Stephen who had initiated this meeting today. Seeing how she had a proposal prepared, it was

beginning to feel like he had walked into a trap. However, even if Melanie’s proposal was outlandish,

Stephen did not have the authority to refuse. If his uncle found out he had messed up this matter, he

would be in deep trouble.

After receiving Stephen’s assurance, Melanie instructed the driver to take her to Jones Enterprise.

As soon as she arrived at the building, Melanie noticed a group of reporters surrounding Lena,

interviewing her.

Melanie’s expression darkened. Lena sure changed her outfit quickly. She rushed to Jones Enterprise

for an interview with the press right after her appointment at the hospital. Melanie had a feeling it had

something to do with her proposal today.
