Chapter 384

Melanie was too afraid to be alone in her room. She choked back a sob. “Thank you, Xander.”

Xander grunted in reply and suddenly asked Melanie, “Do you like Van Gogh?”

Melanie was taken aback. “I like his sunflowers.”

“What about Monet?”

Xander kept asking Melanie questions from the door. His questions ranged from artists to

philosophers, to current celebrities.

Melanie’s initially tense emotions gradually calmed down because of his random questions.

After she was done changing, she pulled her luggage out of the door and returned Xander’s coat to

him..

Xander did not take it from her. Instead, he took her luggage. “You can hold on to that.”

All of them returned to the villa. Before they left her house, Melanie noticed someone had thrown red

paint outside her house and painted the words ‘Pay up‘ on it.

Reny held Melanie’s hand and comforted her, “Someone must have gotten the wrong house. It’s going

to be fine, Melanie. You can spend the night with us after we tidy up a little.”

Melanie had also thought that someone had mistaken her house for someone else’s but…

Reny and the others took most of her work and refused to let her lift a finger with the excuse that she

was hurt. It would be inconvenient for her.

That group of men who came to create trouble were quickly identified by the police as a group of thugs.

Reny even accompanied Melanie to get her statement taken at the police station.

Melanie seemed to visit the police station often recently. She had been here several times.

Burning Star and LeapCo were still in the midst of negotiations. Nothing had been confirmed yet.

Xander and the others went out for appointments as usual while Melanie was left at the villa. Xander

wanted her to recuperate properly.

There was nothing else Melanie could do, so she took charge of arranging logistics.

Xander’s villa was Villa No. 8.

At Villa No.6, Carla Franklin had a cup of black tea in her hand. She was smiling at Stella. “What a rare

guest. It’s not often that you’ll visit me. You refuse to come here even when I invite you here. I heard

that you were recently admitted to the hospital.”

Stella was not in a great mood. “Bad news always spreads faster than good news.‘

Carla raised an eyebrow but did not comment about it. She changed the topic instead. “I’m here about

Eugene’s potential wife. Is there anyone you like?”

She and Stella were close and had a good relationship.

However, Carla later left Jepton with her husband for a long time. She was only recently back.

“The ones I like might not necessarily reciprocate the feelings.” Stella was troubled over this. She had

always looked quite strict, and when she was grim, she looked like someone difficult to handle.

Carla knew her well and smiled as she said, “Mad at Cedric again? What did I tell you before? You can

marry anyone you want, but marrying someone capable is better than a man who relies on a woman.”

“I think I’d rather marry a man who relies on a woman.” A complicated look flashed in Stella’s eyes. It

took her a while before she said self–deprecatingly, “At least my life wouldn’t be in such a mess

now.

“It’s too late with Cedric. I don’t care if he’s dead or alive. Even Eugene is giving me a headache now.”

Carla quickly stopped her there. “I invited Eugene over just now. I’m his godmother, after all.”

When Xander and the others left that morning, they left behind quite a lot of used paper. Melanie

compiled everything that was of no use and stuffed them into a garbage bag to throw out.

She was forced to stay back at the villa, and she did not really dress up due to convenience. Melanie

was in casual clothes every day and did not have makeup on.

After she had thrown out the rubbish, she turned and saw a familiar figure walking toward her.

Melanie looked down. She wanted to turn and leave, but that person called out to her, “Melanie.”
