Chapter 259

Melanie wanted to talk to Xander about the exhibition planning, yet she heard Reny snicker. She

grabbed Melanie’s shoulder and said, “Melanie, you’re the first woman to talk to Xander like this.”

Melanie was puzzled. “Was there anything wrong with what I said?”

“No, it’s just that it sounded like you were thanking Xander for being a nice man and rejecting his

confession.” Reny was still laughing.

Meanie said nothing more. She was not good at responding to jokes like this.

Xander was not a man of many words and naturally would not respond to Reny’s quip.

He handed Melanie a glass of water. “I have a few drafts to finish. There are books in the study. If

they’re too noisy, you can read there.‘

Melanie stood up. “Is there anything I can help with? I remember you said there are many documents

to organize.”

She took the glass of water and said, “I’ve been neglecting my job here. I can do anything that needs

my assistance.”

Reny and Oliver looked at each other with a chuckle. “There’s nothing you have to help with. We just

need you here to chat with us.”

However, just as they spoke, Xander nodded and said, “There are indeed a lot of documents to

organize. They’re in the study.”

Melanie nodded and entered the study.

Reny put on a straight face when she left and glared at Xander in displeasure. “Boss, how could you do

this to Melanie? Can’t you see she’s in a bad mood?”

“We haven’t finished the frame. Come over and help.” Xander ignored her reprimand and spoke to

Oliver instead.

Only Reny was left there, nagging at him.

Melanie found the documents in the study. She had not been working for days, and her body felt

sluggish. It took her some time to adapt to the work as she arranged the documents.

A gap was left at the door, and Melanie could hear Reny and the others speaking.

However, it was strange that her tense mind was relaxed in such an environment.

Drowsiness struck her, and the voice outside faded out.

Melanie had a deep and peaceful sleep.

When she woke up, it was already midnight, and there were still chattering noises from the living room.

Her arm was numb because she had been sleeping on it. Melanie moved, and her brows furrowed.

The blanket on her shoulder fell off, startling Melanie.

She took some time to calm herself before walking out. Reny, Oliver, and Xander were the only ones in

the workshop before Melanie dozed off, but there were others with them now. They were the

employees Melanie had met back in Prime City.

They seemed to be discussing something with low voices as they sat in a circle.

Reny was the first person to notice her. “Melanie, you are awake?”

Xander sat with his back facing her and turned around upon hearing Reny’s words.

Melanie was standing behind him, and he had to lift his head. He was still in the same clothes. His

collar was loosened, maybe because it was more convenient to work like that. It made him look more

carefree than usual.

Melanie looked at them and asked, “Are you guys having a meeting?”

“Did we disturb your sleep?”

Melanie was indeed sleepy because she had not been sleeping well lately, and her body could not take

it anymore.

However, she shook her head. Unfortunately, the tiredness in her eyes sold her out.

Xander looked at her and got up. “Everyone, go to bed.”

It was three in the morning, and some were already sleepy. They quickly headed to their

rooms.

Reny pointed at the second floor. “Melanie, our room is the second one upstairs. You’ll be sleeping with

me tonight.”
