Chapter 626

Howard’s lips curled into a gentle smile as he said warmly, “Mel, why didn’t you tell me you were here

to eat? This is the restaurant I was talking about the last time. The food here is excellent.”

Melanie looked at his eyes behind the lenses, which were not warm and tender at all but rather shrewd.

She remained silent momentarily before saying, “I just came to have dinner with my colleague.”

“Well, that’s perfect,” Howard said with a smile while looking at Yvette. “Allow me to treat you and your

colleague to dinner. Let me thank her for taking care of you.”

Melanie instinctively felt repulsed and promptly declined his offer. “No need, we’ve already eaten.”

“Mel.” Howard’s eyes showed some dissatisfaction as he looked at Melanie. His tone was heavier than

before as he said, “I just want to have a meal with you. Is it that difficult? I know you blame me, but

right now-”

He stopped and sighed helplessly. “Mel, are you unwilling to give me another chance?” he said.

Judging from his demeanor, Melanie surmised it would be difficult to make him leave if she did not

agree to his request. She did not want to get into any fights with him here. She took a deep breath,

turned to Yvette, and said, “Sorry, I have something to attend to. I need to go.”

Yvette blinked. She did not manage a reply as Melanie had already left first.

Howard remained in place, smiling at her before turning around and leaving as well.

Yvette watched their backs as they left and could not shake off a sense of unease. Something about

the situation felt strange.

Melanie followed Howard into the private room. The first person she saw was Bianca. Bianca had her

chin in her hands. As soon as she saw Melanie enter, she immediately turned her eyes toward Tobias

and said, “Tobias, look. Howard’s daughter is really beautiful, isn’t she?”

Tobias did not shy away from looking at Melanie. There was a hint of admiration in his eyes as he said,

“Indeed, she’s beautiful. Like father, like daughter.”

Melanie felt Tobias‘ gaze on her and could sense the overt familiarity in it. It could not be any more

obvious what the gaze was implying.

Howard cleared his throat and introduced, “Mel, this is Tobias. He’s been praising your beauty. You

should make a toast as a sign of your gratitude.”

Without even looking at Tobias, Melanie asked Howard in a cold tone, “So, when you said you wanted

to treat me to a meal, was this what you meant?”

Her words left no room for him to save his reputation. Howard furrowed his brows and rebuked, Tobias

is also your elder.”

“Suddenly, everyone is an elder i should respect? When did they have the right to ask me for that?”

She could not help but recall the content of that video again. She did not expect Howard to target her.

Seeing this, Tobias tactfully intervened. He patted his beer belly generously and spoke kindly, “It’s good

for young people to have a temper, especially a pretty young lady such as you. A temper and a

character, I like that!”

He took out his phone and gestured toward Melanie, saying, “Mel, right? Why don’t we exchange

numbers? I’m not as conservative as your dad. I like hanging out with you young folks.”

Melanie looked at the greed and blatant lust in his eyes. She was disgusted, and her expression

soured. Tobias waited for her response for a while but did not get any.

Displeasure crossed his face as he turned to Howard. His tone was bitter as he said, “Mr. Smith, your

daughter seems to be looking down on me, eh?”

Howard’s eyes turned cold as he rebuked, “Mel, I’ve taught you better. How could you be so

disrespectful to your elders? Apologize to Mr. Carter right now!”
