“I heard you hurt your hand bad. Are you having a lot of trouble? Why don’t I have Landon buy you a
plane ticket so that you can come over tonight? I can’t help worrying until I see you.”
Melanie was afraid that Henry would impulsively come to Oskon City and hurriedly reassured him, ”
Don’t worry, Mr. Henry. I’ve already gone to the hospital for a check–up. I’m completely fine. I just need
to rest for a couple more days.”
Henry did not belleve her and continued with concern, “They say it takes a hundred days to recover
from a serious injury. How are you fine after just resting for two days? Mel, this is no joke.
“You must take good care of yourself. If you feel unwell, just call me, and I’ll make sure everything is
arranged for you.”
Hearing the old man’s concern for her, Melanie’s mood, which had been troubled all day, eased
somewhat. She comforted him patiently for a bit before his emotions finally stabilized.

it in your room,” Henry insisted.
“I already got the hotel to send me dinner,” Melanie replied.
“What kind of nutrition can you even get from hotel food? Eat what I get you!”
There was no stopping Henry once he put his mind to something. Afraid he would suggest coming to
Oskon City again, Melanie could only agree. Little did she expect that the dinner he ordered would be
so sumptuous.
The meal consisted of a total of eight dishes, all of which were nourishing and invigorating. Melanie
looked at the pork stew among them and could not help but laugh wryly.
The next morning, Melanie’s hand looked even more frightening than the previous night. As soon as
she woke up, Xander and Yvonne called to inquire about the accident last night. Melanie replied to
each of them.
When Melanie arrived at the conference hall, Yvette looked at her hand with concern. “Is your hand
really okay? It looks pretty serious.”
Melanie had injured her right hand, which did indeed cause somewhat of an inconvenience.
Fortunately, the courses at the conference did not require much note–taking.
After the afternoon session ended, Yvette came up to her again and gave her a wink. “Wasn’t I
particularly insightful yesterday? I may not have any other strengths, but don’t doubt my ability to read
people.”
Melanie was puzzled. “What did you do yesterday?”
“I left with my colleagues yesterday! As soon as I sensed Mr. Scott’s gaze, I stopped being a third
wheel and even created a romantic atmosphere for you two, didn’t I?” Yvette replied.

Not wanting to hear any more nonsense from the woman, Melanie packed up her things and got ready
to go to Pearl Hotel. She had arranged to meet with Matthew

Perhaps influenced by Eugene, Melanie’s heart felt heavy on her way to the hotel. It was as if she was
unable to catch her breath.
To her surprise, she saw two figures pressed together tightly the moment she got there. They were
Howard and Bianca, and they were accompanied by several middle–aged men. Almost all of themi
were of similar age to Howard.
Each of them had a young woman who looked to be about Bianca’s age.
Even from a distance, Melanie could see Howard’s hand resting on Blanca’s waist as well as the self-
satisfied smile on his face.
Pearl Hotel was luxurious and extravagant, and Melanie could tell from Howard’s casual and relaxed
demeanor that he was no stranger to this kind of place.
A meal at Pearl Hotel costs at least four figures. Yet, Howard made it seem as if he had some
compelling reason that kept him from leaving Oskon City and returning to Jepton.
