Chapter 338
“Don’t get so worked up.” Yvonne coaxed her husband.
Although she was already a middle-aged woman, she still looked young and beautiful thanks to her
meticulous skincare routine, but despite all this, she was still no match for Jennie.
Jennie was both talented and dashing. She was known throughout Dellmoor for her beauty, but Yvonne
outdid Jennie with her evil scheme. She won Thomas’ heart and eventually forced Jennie away.
Everything ended badly when Jennie had to leave with her newborn baby girl for the village not long
after she gave birth.
“I thought we already poached a few people from Dream?” Yvonne asked, patting Thomas’ chest.
“Dream is facing some problems, this is why they have to lower their price.”
Thomas blew a mouthful of smoke. “Well, those people are not even that good. They are making a lot
of demands.”
“What they want is nothing compared to what we have. Everybody knows we are the juggernaut in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpharmaceutical industry. Dexmed Pharmaceutical has you at the helm. That Yandel guy is not your
rival.”
Thomas felt better listening to her praises.
“You know just what I want to hear,” he teased.
“Hey, Melissa’s still here.”
Melissa had been listening to his parents’ conversation the moment she heard Yandel’s name. She
was listening so attentively that she did not even realize that the poodle had already broken free from
her.
“Dad, Mom, Mr. Moss is not as bad as you guys said he is!” she retorted.
“What do you know? Are you going to wait till Dexmed Pharmaceutical goes down to realize how
cunning he is? You only know about your luxury bags,” Thomas berated.
“He_”
“What did he do?”
Melissa initially wanted to tell Thomas that she had fallen for Yandel, but when she saw her father’s
face, she swallowed her words.
“It’s nothing,” she said, faking a yawn. “I’m tired. I’ll go rest first.”
“Go on then.”
Melissa dashed upstairs without knowing that Yvonne knew she was hiding something.
Thomas might not have realized that, but the girl’s mother definitely saw through her. She conjectured
that something must have happened between Yandel and her daughter.
After Melissa went to her room, she closed the door behind her and threw herself on her bed.
She took out the name card, looking at it closely.
Yandel is not as bad as Dad said. He’s handsome, gentle, and rich. To Melissa, he was just as good as
Samuel.
She had given him her heart and there was no taking it back.
He introduced himself and even gave me his name card. I should give him something in return too. I
have to do something. I need to contact him because if I don’t, there is no point in him liking me. It’s not
like he can find me in this big city.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith that thought in her head, Melissa took out her phone and made a call.
The call was taking a long time to get through.

Just as Melissa was about to give up, someone picked up.

“Yes?”
Melissa’s heart skipped a beat when he heard Yandel’s voice.
“Hi,” she said nervously, “it’s me. You gave me your name card earlier on. I just arrived home. I believe
I haven’t told you my name.”
“You’re quite right.”
“Melissa,” she said immediately. She did not tell him her family name because she was afraid he would
not like the fact that she was one of the Nichols.
“That’s a nice name,” Yandel said slowly. “It’s a suitable name for someone like you.”
“Are you on WhatsApp? Can I add you?”
Yandel was at a loss for words.
Everything happened just as Boss said. This girl really acts on her feelings. I wasn’t expecting her to
call this soon.
