Melody was as calm as air in front of Charles.Seeing her emotionless face, Charles narrowed his eyes
in doubt.
"Melody, you're too full of yourself.Why aren't you talking?"
"Guilty? Scared?"
Melody took a name tag from behind and shook it slightly in front of Charles.Her actions stopped
Charles's curses to her.
Instead, he looked at her in confusion, "What are you talking about?"
"Haha!" Melody sneered.
Her cold face was filled with disgust and ridicule.
"I didn't read it.Don't you know how to read?"
As he noticed that Charles still didn't get it, Atty.Lewis helped Melody to explain.
"Charles, the word "chairman" is written on this card.Each card represents everyone's duty and
identity.Miss Melody's card has the word "chairman" written on it.She is now the top decision-maker in
the Sullivan Company.She can fire whoever she wants.Do you understand?"
'Does he mean Charles is stupid?' Melody thought to herself as she tried to stop herself from laughing.
'lf Charles doesn't agree with Melody, he can tell her in private.But now that he's making a fuss like this,
he's only ruining his future; Atty. “ Lewis said in his mind.
Atty.Lewis had helped Melody several times, and it deeply displeased him.
"Hey, Lewis, don't tell me this.I am Charles, the only grandson of the Sullivan Family.In the future, the
entire property of the group and my family will be mine.And the first person that I will fire is you!"
Atty. Lewis didn't feel the slightest drop of anger but amusement.
He laughed.
"Alright, I will wait for you to fire me."
He paused for a moment and slowly said, "However, I have to remind you, Mr.Sullivan, it is Miss
Melody who inherited all the property of the Sullivan Family now.You? You don't have anything under
your name but an empty title.So how can you fire me, Charles?"
Atty.Lewis said these words to bluntly slap Charles with reality.He had served their family for many
years, and even Quince would give him respect.
Now, Charles dared to act childish in front of him.
'Maybe he's looking for a beating” Atty.Lewis thought with a tinge of irritation.
Charles, who couldn't fight with the attorney anymore, turned to Melody again.
"Melody, I'm telling you, you're a jinx.Nothing good has happened ever since you came back.If you're
really smart, you will leave the company.Otherwise, don't blame me for being disrespectful to you."
Seconds later, Melody suddenly stood up.
Everyone could feel that the heavy atmosphere in the office had hit the dirt.
No one knew what Melody was going to do.
Even Charles was a little shocked, but he was confident that Melody would not hurt him.
Besides, he was the only grandson of the Sullivan Family.
'lf she even lay her finger on me, my mother will definitely punish her his mind voice said.Melody
glanced around the office with her dazzling eyes.Then, her eyes were plastered on the chairman's
collection cabinet.In the exquisite wooden cabinet, there was a gleaming collection of items.
There was also a leather whip, which was the chairman's favorite when he was alive.
When her gaze stopped on the whip, a hint of mockery flashed across her eyes.She slowly stepped
forward and took it out.
Right then, Melody turned around.She whipped just an inch from Charles's feet, scaring him to take two
steps backward.
After he regained his balance, he looked at Melody with disdain in his heart.
This lady had the bit of ability to scare him.
So he yelled unhappily, "If you want to scare me, do it! Whip me!"
Atty.Lewis covered his eyes as he couldn't bear to see the next scenes.
He had no idea that Charles liked to be whipped! Melody sneered coldly, and the side of her lips rose a
little.She waved the whip again.
The whip whistled as it sliced the air.
Her wrist was strong.
After a loud noise, it accurately hit Charles's shoulder.
Then, a scream echoed in the entire office.
"Ah!"
Everyone who witnessed it was dumbfounded.
They didn't expect that Melody would dare to whip Charles in front of everyone.
Even Linda was surprised by Melody's courage.
"This is because you disrespected Linda and Atty.Lewis.You are part of the Sullivan Family, Charles,
and they have served us for a long time.You don't have the right to tell them what's right."
After saying that, Melody bit her lower lip and whipped him again.
Charles's eyes widened as he saw the whip coming at him for the second time.This was the time she
hit him in his bones that had lesser muscles.
Again, the whip made Charles chase his breath before he fell to the ground.
Charles rolled in pain and shrieked.His arrogance was gone.He reached out and rubbed his back
crazily looking rather stupid.
"Melody, you are crazy! You dare to hit me, the only son of the Sullivan family? You…”
Melody cut his sentence and glared at him coldly.
"The second whip is to make you worthy of the Sullivan name.You don't have the slightest respect.You
secretly used the company's money to please yourself"
After this, the whip pierced through the air, slashed through it, and the third whip struck down.
This whip hit Charles on the butt.
This time, Charles could only wail as he completely fell to the ground.
He didn't even have the strength to curse Melody.
After three painful lashes, Charles was basically crippled.
With the hard whips he received, he wouldn't be able to walk properly for more than ten days.
The first two whips were too satisfying.
Atty.Lewis and the others secretly cheered.
'Charles, this stinky brat just needs a lesson.If Melody didn't do it, he would continue with an attitude
like that; they thought in their minds.Everyone was waiting for the reason for Melody's third whip, but
Melody didn't utter any words for a while.Everyone couldn't wait to hear it.Under Linda's hint, Atty.Lewis
carefully asked.
He was afraid that Melody would be irritated and give him a whip.He knew his body couldn't bear those
beatings.
"Miss Melody, what's the reason for the third whip?"
Melody answered quickly, "Ah, I only made myself happy.There's no serious reason!"
This reason conformed to her usual attitude.
'Melody doesn't need a reason to do things.She just wants to be satisfied' Charles didn't dare to refute
Melody anymore after those lashes, which almost took half of his life.
Everyone was waiting to see how Melody would deal with Charles next.But of course, they didn't
expect Quince, who received the news, to come over.
Atty.Lewis and Linda's expressions changed instantly.
If Charles was a completely reckless and brainless grandson, Quince was different.
Not only he was Melody's father, but he was also known for his ruthless personality in the business
world.This situation was tough!
