"No! I don't want it!" Keira did not expect her career to suddenly come to an end. She resisted desperately. "Melina, it's all because of you! It's you! It's all because of you!"
Unable to resist, she roared angrily, her two big eyes staring at Melina as if trying to sear Melina's image into her memory.
Melina was also helpless.
She had never provoked Keira from the beginning to the end.
However, after her stepmother was "escorted" out, no one would force her to sign those contracts that she did not know about.
Seeing that the contract was still on the ground, Melina picked it up.
Just as she was about to take a closer look, a hand suddenly appeared in front of her, and then, a disdainful voice sneered. "What do you want this for? Keep it as a memento?"
She raised her head. The owner of the voice was Boss. Melina had no choice but to swallow the curse she was about to say and put on an awkward smile.
"I..."
"Stupid."
After saying this, Mr. King brushed past her without another glance.
After a while, Melina returned to her seat under the gossiping eyes of her colleagues.
She felt depressed, and she also felt very angry...
She raised her head and looked in the direction of the president's office. The specially made acrylic glass made it impossible for her to see the scene inside clearly, but she could imagine that the god-like president must be disgusted with her again.
...
In fact...
Melina guessed right.
In the office, Mr. King (Luther) was really looking down on his own wife.
He despised her for being too kind and disliked that she did not know how to protect herself.
He also disliked her for being really a little stupid...
As he browsed through the documents sent by the American branch, he waited for Bill to restore those blurry documents.
As his most trusted aide, not only did Bill restore the documents, but he also investigated Keira, the woman who disliked his Madam.
"An indenture..."
"My woman is worth 20 million?"
Looking at the restored "insurance", Luther could not help but chuckled.
He thought that Winslow family should have known that Blackwood family was not easy to deal with after he asked someone to pack up the unconscious Vanessa last time, but he did not expect that they even played this trick.
He thought to himself, "Since they want money so badly, why not go by themselves?"
"Bill, send Mrs. Winslow to Third Master. Tell him that apart from the last step, he may do as he pleases."
"This... this might be appropriate, right?" Bill was a little hesitant.
Although he also felt that Florence was not a good person, after all, she was still Melina's mother nominally.
"Oh?"
"Do you mean that this is not enough?"
Bill was speechless.
"Then..."
"No, Boss. If Madam finds out about this, then..." Bill was worried.
"She won't know. If she knows, I'll send you there next time." Luther said calmly, his tone carrying a chiling threat.
"Although Melina is stupid, she is not a complete fool." As Luther muttered, the corners of his mouth raised again.
Seeing that Luther was insistent, the subordinate naturally did not say anything else. In any case, his Boss's behavior had always been strange. Otherwise, Luther would not have been given the nickname "Monster" by the outside world.
Bill directly entered the president's special elevator and went down to the underground fourth floor where only this elevator could go down.
Perhaps it was because she was too noisy, when he entered the warehouse, he saw the already unconscious Florence.
Her body, soft and fleshy, was squeezed into a tight red leather dress, making her resemble a ham sausage peeled at both ends.
"Come, send this ham sausage to Third Master." He could not help but say sarcastically.
The subordinates were stunned for a moment before they reacted. One of them with a mind-blowing idea directly took out a pen from his pocket and wrote the brand name of a famous sausage on her forehead.
Everyone was silent.
...
At the Gold Shop.
Vanessa waited for her mother to come back, but she couldn't get through to her. Gradually, she started to get anxious.
Traditionally, the wedding jewelry was paid by the groom's family, but because Dorian gave her ten percent of the company's shares as a betrothal gift, she had to buy the wedding jewelry herself.
Although Florence always treated her eldest daughter badly, she treated Vanessa well from the bottom of her heart.
The 800,000 that was cheated from Melina was basically subsidized to Vanessa. To let Vanessa get married decently, Florence also sold a lot of her jewelry and bought a small apartment for Vanessa, which was not far from the Blackwood family's villa area. She planned to wait for Melina to have a child and live there so that it would be convenient to take care of her.
However, it was a pity that Vanessa was dazzled by all the splendorous and majestic things owned by Blackwood family so she only wanted to buy the best.
The diamond ring she took a fancy to was worth 600,000, not to mention the diamond necklace or the golden bracelet.
Winslow family was located in the southern part of the country. When their people got married, the bride's arms and neck would be covered with gold bracelets and gold rings. The more they wore, the more noble the family was, and the more highly valued they would be in the future after marrying into the groom's family.
So she chose four pieces of gold necklace and eight pairs of gold bracelets, which were made of pure gold and cost hundreds of thousands.
In Roger's eyes, his daughters were just financial burdens. If they got married, they would belong to another family. Then they should make money for him. It was impossible for him to pay for these things.
However, he did not stop his wife and young daughter from using his eldest daughter to exchange for money. The last time they went to pick up Vanessa, Blackwood family's Third Master had said that as long as Melina was willing to marry over as the second wife, he would directly give them 20 million in cash.
Cash!
Only the rich and overbearing Blackwood family could be so casual.
"Miss Winslow, look, the mall is going to be off work. Why don't you come back tomorrow?"
The young sales associate who had spent an entire day with Vanessa was a little tired, thinking to herself, "The moment this woman came in, she looked as if she wanted to buy everything. In the end, she chose hundreds of thousands of things and still did not pay."
"If she didn't mention Blackwood family, I would leave her here or ask someone to send her off. The real Blackwood family will not put hundreds of thousands in their eyes. Look at her face and temperament. She could not be the legal wife. Maybe she is the mistress that Blackwood family keeps outside."
It was fortunate that Vanessa could not hear what the other person was thinking, otherwise, she would have been so angry that she vomited blood.
Reluctantly, she stood up from her chair and commented dismissively before walking out of the store.
She called her mother again, but it turned out her mother's phone was turned off.
She then dialed Mr. Winslow. He did pick up the call, but it was a mess over there. Vanessa didn't need to think to know that he was out drinking with his friends and indulging in "entertainment.".
Just as she was hesitating if she should call Dorian for help, she suddenly received a call from the police station saying that they had found her mother!
The police station!
Vanessa suddenly had a bad feeling.
...
Florence was naturally not someone easy to deal with. After all she was able to handle Roger, that selfish fish trafficker.
Although she was knocked unconscious and sent to the lustful Third Master of Blackwood family.
However, after she woke up, she regained her combat strength and started to fought back Third Master, who was ready to enjoy the "beauty".
Blackwood family's Third Master was called Barry Blackwood.
He was a weirdo in Blackwood family's direct line of descent. When he was young, he was naughty and hit his head, causing his IQ to be low. However, he was also spoiled by the women in his family, so he especially liked beauties.
His brain was not good, but he still had the right to inherit.
All these years, relying on Blackwood family's dividends, he had managed to trick many women.
Because he went too far, he was kicked out by the direct line of descent, and because of infertility, his way of doing things became more and more unreliable.
However, he still had a normal sense of aesthetics! Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked for 20 million after seeing Melina's photo. Although Melina wasn't as enchanting as those female celebrities, but there was a rare purity in her appearance, especially in her eyes. How rare it was in this era?
However, he didn't expect that after waiting for an entire afternoon, he would only receive a thick "ham sausage". Not only that, he was even beaten up by the people that Luther had sent over. He was told that if he dared to have any ideas about Luther's woman, he would directly be sent to see his Eldest Master.
Blackwood family's Eldest Master? He passed away more than twenty years ago!
Blackwood family's Third Master was angry and felt wronged. If he knew that Melina was Luther's woman, he would not even dare to think about her!
He had the heart to kill Florence, but Luther had given him a limit. He was allowed to play her, but he definitely could not do that thing to her.
What else could he do?
He could only beat her! However, it turned out that the one who was beaten up was him!
He cursed in his mind, "That shrew! A shrew!"
Third Master had no choice but to report the case and send her to the police station, and he also scolded Dorian, who had previously embarrassed him.
Although he did not have much ability, his background and seniority were all higher than Dorian's.
Although he was impatient and angry, Dorian still listened to his reprimand like his grandson.
"How... How is this possible? How could that slut Melina hook up with Luther!" Hearing her boyfriend's words, Vanessa gritted her teeth and said.
Although the outside world said that Luther was a Monster, his family had a lot of money! It was no wonder that the last time Vanessa saw Melina, Melina wore an exclusive Balenciaga bag.
Hearing how Vanessa addressed his ex-girlfriend, Dorian was slightly unhappy.
But when he thought of the child, he still said softly, "Vanessa, it is a good thing that Melina can hook up with Luther. Although my uncle is abnormal, he is very generous to the people around him. In the future, maybe we will need your sister to have some pillow talk with him."
"You want me to beg her? Let me tell you, Dorian Blackwood, it's impossible!" Vanessa immediately shouted.
Ever since she was young, she had never been comparable to gain as many praises as her sister had received. It was not easy for her to snatch everything from Melina, so she did not want to lower her head toward that woman.
"I'm just saying maybe... Don't be so agitated." Dorian attempted to soothe her "And if I remember correctly, my uncle has a girlfriend, and she is also Haverford family's Eldest Miss. We can go to the old house next week to attend the banquet. Remember to keep in touch with her when the time comes."
"As for Melina... You should also persuade your mother. Don't keep thinking about hounding money from her. Didn't I let you get anything you want?"
Dorian's words made Vanessa feel a little embarrassed. She felt a little wronged. He didn't let her lack anything, but she wanted the best. She wanted a dream world like the one in the fairy tale world.
She bit her lips, tears streaming down her face.
At this moment, Mrs. Winslow, who was placed in the backseat woke up and her voice frightened everyone in the car.
