Chapter 80 Is Stanley Mad?
Melinda’s reaction was delayed by a tad bit because Stanley was so gentle today that she couldn’t quite believe it.
In front of everyone else, Stanley held her waist and said with unbelievable tenderness in his eyes, “Come home with me. The children miss you. Pamela couldn’t sleep at night.”
Melinda met his gaze, half-believing him.
Before Melinda could make a decision, Stanley turned around, still holding her. He gave Mervin a warning glare, then carried Melinda into the Lamborghini.
Mervin, who had gotten up, fiddled with the brush as a look of disdain colored his face.
He was bewildered as he watched the Lamborghini driving away since he couldn’t believe that Stanley wasn’t angry.
When Melinda recovered her senses, she looked at her dirty hands, then turned to look out the window, Soon, the children’s figures disappeared from her sight.
“What are you doing?” She whipped around. “My drawing class is still underway!”
“Mervin will pick up where you left off.” Stanley stared in front, expressionless.
She fell silent. She didn’t know what he was thinking about. He didn’t look gentle anymore, but he didn’t seem to be angry, either.
“Are you taking me back into the city?”
“What do you think?”
She could only comply. The children were missing her. I have to grab my stuff from the wooden house first.”
He didn’t deny her request.
The driver heard her words too, so he pulled up in front of the wooden house at the end.
Melinda had just gotten out of the car and walked into the wooden house when Stanley caught sight of a familiar set of clothes hanging in the yard. His gaze darkened.
Is Mervin living here?!
When Melinda got back into the car, she noticed a fearsome aura emanating from the man.
She worriedly got into the car, then the driver closed the car door for her.
Stanley didn’t say anything, and Melinda remained silent.
However, the atmosphere in the car made Melinda feel like the air was frozen, and she found it difficult to breathe.
Stanley’s phone rang. Stanley was still resting with his eyes closed, and he didn’t seem like he had any intentions to pick up.
Melinda was speechless as she didn’t know what he was mad about. It was just an arranged marriage, and she never did anything wrong
The phone kept ringing, and it annoyed her.
“Answer it!” She leaned back in the seat as well, saying in annoyance, “What if Max has something to talk to you about?”© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
However, Stanley passed his phone to her. “You pick up. He couldn’t even novelxo.com fast updatebe bothered to see who the call
was from.
Monica! Melinda was stunned as she stared at the screen. The phone was still ringing.
Stanley insisted in annoyance, “Come on. Answer it if you want to. If not, just reject it.”
Melinda could only grit her teeth as she answered the call and put it on speaker.
“Mr. Fox, where have you gone?” The woman’s gentle voice sounded. “Everyone is hoping that you’ll attend this meeting. Can you come over when you’re done? We can wait.”
Stanley didn’t say anything. He remained silent even after Melinda tugged at his arm.
“Hello? Are you there?” Monica suspected that the signal was too weak.
Melinda tugged at his arm again, whispering, “Are you going?”
Monica managed to catch Melinda’s voice with her sensitive hearing. For some reason, she felt like something had rammed into her heart.
“Is that Melinda?” she asked coldly.
“Mr. Fox is a little tired, so he’s resting now. Please wait until he wakes up. With that, Melinda quickly hung up, which left Monica pissed, but Stanley was completely unaffected.
They spent the rest of the journey in silence.
The driver sent Melinda back to Emerald Harbor. Stanley got out of the car as well, then went into the living room with her.
He finally spoke up. “Don’t go back ever again.”
“You said that I’m free to do whatever I want,” Melinda reminded him, meeting his
gaze.
As they stared at each other, a dark current flowed between them, and Gael didn’t know what to do.
“I’ve also said that,” Stanley said in a cold and dark voice, “you should stay away from Mervin.”
“I just happened to bump into him, and I know that you care about him, so I want to ease the tension. between you two. What’s wrong with that?” she said honestly so that their relationship wouldn’t get worse.
“I think you’re not getting it,” Stanley said with a hint of impatience. He glared at her, then turned around in dissatisfaction.
Gael hastily came over with some tea. “Madam, what’s going on? Why are you two fighting again?”
She sighed. “He’s crazy. Then, she walked up the stairs.
