“What do you mean by that? Are you going to kidnap someone in broad daylight?” Yvonne
snapped.
“Not me, but | can’t guarantee if the chairman will send someone else or not.”
That was a blatant threat, and Melanie's expression darkened. Cedric would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
Contemplating the situation briefly, she nodded and replied, “Fine, I'll go see him.”

At LeapCo’s branch office, Lee pushed open the office door and said with a serious expression, ” The chairman
has gone looking for Melanie and Merry.”
Eugene was in the middle of a conference call. He had been staying at the office almost every night due to
company issues. When he heard what Lee said, his gaze turned solemn and he interrupted the meeting. “What
did you say?”
“The chairman got someone to bring Melanie and Merry to the hotel.”
“Who told you this?”
“William. He calledand toldthat if you don’t want anything to happen to Melanie and her daughter, it'd

She deliberately emphasized the words ‘arranged to be brought here’ to signal to him that she did not want any
more of his hypocritical pleasantries.
William remained indifferent. “I misspoke. But Miss Smith, there's no need to be nervous. The chairman just
wants to have dinner with you.”
With that, he pushed open the door behind him, revealing a large dining room. Melanie's eyes flickered, but she
kept her lips pursed as she followed William in.

entrance with a stern expression. A turbulent storm was brewing in his eyes.
