Chapter 121 A Victor’s Smile
Amidst her astonishment, Melinda shifted her gaze toward Stanley. She saw the faint cracks in his expression, accompanied by an elusive coldness around the corners of his mouth.
Mervin had promised him that he would not show his face! Yet now, he openly defied him!
“Stanley, you shut down his club.” She softly reminded, “What he chooses to do is his own decision. He’s a free man. You can no longer restrict him.”
A cold gaze swept toward her at that moment, causing Melinda’s chest to tighten as she noticed his face took on a ghastly expression. Stanley restrained himself from his anger, saying nothing. and turned to leave.
She was speechless as she watched him go, still concerned for Mervin. Mervin Laurent… Is he the illegitimate child? Is that why Stanley’s feelings toward him are so complicated?
She felt like she had stumbled upon a major secret. Her emotions remained unsettled for a long
time.
Stanley sat in the back seat of the departing Lamborghini and stared coldly at the promotional poster on the tablet. He felt the provocation when he looked at Mervin’s rebellious smile. However, he remained composed, concealing his emotions.
The beautiful morning sunlight streamed through the window, casting a warm glow on his meticulously sculpted features, but it could not warm the energy surroundnovelxo.com fast updateing him. Still, his anger subsided after recalling Melinda’s proactive kiss before bedtime last night.
She sat on the couch in the luxurious living room of Emerald Harbor, holding a remote control and watching the news about the filming of The Love in Sapphire Bay’ as many channels were reporting it.
Mervin had been confirmed as the male lead. There were no changes in this matter. I guess entering the entertainment industry isn’t something he casually mentioned.
The female lead, Shirlene, wore a white wedding dress and diamond-studded high heels in the promotional photos. She was as stunning as a princess from a fairy tale, looking compatible with Mervin.
Meanwhile, Melinda took time to devise a treatment plan. She spent the whole day in the villa, reflecting on Stanley’s account from last night. She was particularly captivated by the heartbreaking love story of the older generation in the Fox Family.
What is love, after all?
Nicholas was willing to leave with nothing just to divorce Jennifer when he had once married into her family. If she was willing to sign the divorce agreement back then, would there be a different story today?
In the vice president’s office of the Fox Group, sunlight poured in through the windows, illuminating Monica, who was sitting on the couch by the window. On the laptop screen was the photo of Mervin and Shirlene, making her one of the first to read about it.
Mervin entered the entertainment industry! He made a public appearance!
“Miss Keller, I need your signature on this document.” Her assistant Lydia walked over.
Monica took out her phone. “Put it aside for now.” She dialed a number and spoke with a stern face when the call was connected. “I want to see you. Now.”
“Monica, I’m packed right now. I’m with the filming crew.” Mervin’s voice carried a hint of a smile. “What’s the matter? Can you tell me over the phone?”
“Why didn’t you keep your promise?” she questioned him directly. “You said you wouldn’t make public appearances! Now, you even entered the entertainment industry! Once you become popular, the media will dig up everything about you and your ancestors!”
“He closed down my club. I can’t just starve to death, can I?” His tone was light. “I can only move forward if he leaves me no way out. I don’t care what the reporters want. I haven’t done anything shameful.”
“He closed the club? Why?” She was surprised.
Mervin just laughed. “It was just a club. I got bored of it a long time ago. If he closed it, then so be
it!”
He was purposely provoking!
“Monica, I’ll hang up now if there’s nothing else. I’m busy.”
She was speechless.
After he ended the call, he held his phone and grinned. It was the smile of a victor.
