After being discharged from the hospital, Melanie finally discovered that Nathaniel had stripped her of
her director title. Even though he had gotten hospitalized, his staff carried out his orders promptly and
even took away Melanie’s office.
Everyone in MN Inc. knew Melanie was the CEO’s fiancee. However, she never imagined something
like this to happen to her. Before she could even officially marry the CEO, her title disappeared just like
that.
Though the staff would not talk about it to her face, they would sometimes steal glances at her. Melanie
could not help but feel others ridiculing her, and she was furious at how heartless Nathaniel was. She
did not even stay long before collecting her things and leaving.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMoments later, Nathaniel’s secretary called, “Mr. Hall, Director… M-Ms. Thayer came to the office, but
she left after discovering that you’ve taken away her title and office.”
“That’s fine. Don’t worry about it,” Nathaniel replied calmly. Even though he did not want to be too cruel
to Melanie as they were once a couple, she was not suitable for this position. If he continued allowing
her to be the MN Inc.’s director, she would only be a company liability and make things awkward for
them.
Moreover, he knew Melanie was an ambitious woman. Since she could hook up with Frank, she would
not be satisfied just being MN Inc.’s director. Melanie wanted fame and fortune to become the world’s
top perfumer.
She would leave Nathaniel to climb to a higher position if she had the opportunity. It was typical of her
to want to go higher, but she was ignorant of her capabilities. Other companies might not be too harsh
on their employees, but things were different in the perfume industry. If one’s capabilities as a perfumer
were questionable, one would never make it.
After hanging up, Nathaniel made another phone call, “Hello, do you have the results for the thing I
asked?”
…
After leaving MN Inc., Melanie went to the hotel to look for Frank. Frank was supposed to leave
Sapphine city by now, but he had to delay his schedule as he was injured and needed time to recover.
Melanie knocked on his door. When Frank saw her, he dragged her in and pressed her against the
door frame, lowering his lips onto hers.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMelanie pushed him away. She would not submit to him this time, nor did she want to play around. She
was determined to refuse him. Frank frowned and questioned her as he stepped back from her shove,
“What’s the meaning of this?”
“I just came out of surgery, and my body hasn’t fully recovered,” Melanie elaborated.
“Stop giving me excuses!” Frank was not one to care about others. He only wanted things to go his way
and did not give a d*mn about her body condition. Honestly, he was a sc*m that lacked compassion,
just like a beast.
Melanie quickly moved away from him and removed a bottle of pepper spray from her bag, “If you don’t
stop this, I’ll hurt you! I’m here to talk to you about something, not sleep with you!”
Frank was surprised she had it in her to be harsh and forceful after knowing her for such a long time.
Frank was stunned but recovered and looked at her with new interest. He then lit a cigarette and took a
puff, “Fine, what do you want? I’m sure you’re not here to have pillow talk with me.”
