Chapter 133

It was an eventful day for Melanie, filled with turmoil and excitement. She initially thought she was
about to fall into a bottomless pit, but at the most crucial moment, Frank appeared and extended his
arm to catch her. On the way back to the hotel, her mental state was in such a mess that she did not
even struggle to break free when Frank held her hand without asking. There was only silence. A sense
of edginess filled the air, making them feel restless.

Frank led Meanie to the elevator when they arrived at the hotel lobby. When the elevator doors closed,
he pushed Melanie against the wall and trapped her with his body. “Mr. Moreau!” Melanie yelped in
surprise. “Melanie, I‘ve done a huge favor for you today. Shouldn‘t you be grateful?” Frank said as one
of his hands grabbed the back of her head.

“I–I,” Melanie hesitated and wanted to speak, but Frank ignored her and kissed her abruptly. Melanie
could not even breathe, less tried to stop him. Though her hands were on his chest, it was useless.

Ding!

The elevator rang, and the doors opened on Melanie‘s room floor. Frank stopped immediately and
moved back to leave just enough space between himself and Melanie. Then he stepped aside to allow
her a glimpse of the corridor outside. Without a second thought, Melanie rushed out of the elevator. As
she was leaving, Frank warned, “Melanie, I‘m a person with lots of flaws, and my biggest one is
patience. I said I would give you chances, but they‘re also limited. I‘ll give you one or two but never
more than that. Tonight is your last chance, do you understand?”

Melanie dared not speak a word. She only dared to turn around after hearing the elevator move. Frank
was gone by then, and his absence did not make Melanie feel any better. Instead, she still felt the
warmth of his lips on hers, reminding her that they had done something unthinkable in the elevator.



Yet, the most crucial thing in Melanie‘s mind at that moment was what Frank had just said to her.
Melanie knew he was serious this time, as he could ditch and embarrass her or reach out and send her
to the top of the industry. It was unreputable that Frank possessed that ability.

Melanie knew she would never get another opportunity like this if she rejected him again, even if she
changed her mind later. She was in a dilemma as she gently stroked her belly. She did not know which
path to take.

While Lily and Jenny were returning to their suite, Jenny‘s phone rang, “What? Now? Where are they?”
She turned and glanced at Lily, “Can‘t Lily and I do this together?”
