Melanie refused to answer Nathaniel’s incessant calls after she hung up. After a while, she grew
annoyed with the constant ringing and turned off her phone. She had even more trouble falling asleep
after such a stir, so she walked toward the small square window. It felt completely different from the
floor-to-ceiling ones in the presidential suite overlooking the city’s night view.
The window represented a frame that contained her whole life as Melanie could already foresee her
future. She felt she was destined to live this life and could no longer count on Nathaniel since he could
not give her what he wanted.
As expected, one could only rely on themselves. It did not matter that Melanie had dedicated herself to
following Nathaniel over the past few years. Melanie knew how dedicated Lily was to Nathaniel when
Lily was with him. Melanie would likely fall into the same destiny as Lily and become old and ugly if she
devoted herself to Nathaniel.
Melanie thought, ‘Nate might have another person to replace me.‘ Melanie felt terrified when she
thought of these things. She shivered in the cold, even though the window remained shut.
Melanie hugged herself and looked up at the ceiling. She bit on her lower lip and decided in her heart.
After taking a bath, she wore her sexy pajamas and put on makeup before covering herself with a coat.
“Fortunately, I maintained my figure well enough. I still look as beautiful as ever,” Melanie muttered
while looking in the mirror.
She ordered a bottle of red wine and took the elevator up with her access card. She quickly found
Frank‘s room since it was a room she dreamed of staying in. She accurately remembered where it was.
Since Melanie was unsure of Frank‘s capabilities and power, she was initially very unsure. However,
that night reassured her of Frank‘s influence. He was someone the event organizers had specially
invited, and he helped her when others pressured her on stage.
Frank was so famous that he could effortlessly make Melanie the center of attention with just a simple
sentence. Melanie knew it would be equally as simple if Frank wanted to do otherwise. She thought it
was better to be with Frank than the useless Nathaniel, as Frank had significant influence and abilities.
Although Frank was unlikely to promise Melanie marriage and love, he could help her become the top
perfumer in the industry. The fame and fortune Frank could bring Melanie were unprecedented. After
achieving wealth and fame, Melanie could quickly obtain love, marriage, and any man she wanted.
Melanie no longer felt worried or unsure after making such a conclusion. The room door opened after
she rang the doorbell, catching Melanie by surprise as she thought she would need to wait a while
before Frank responded. Frank stood at the door in his loose robe as his eyes revealed a sense of
desire. Melanie would have avoided his gaze before but not anymore. She lifted the red wine bottle in
her hand and waved at Frank. “Hey, I‘ve figured it out,” she said with a seductive smile on her rosy lips.
Frank was delighted as he smiled.
