Chapter 16 The next day . When Melanie went downstairs , she just ran into Estelle and Simon who were about to leave for MR Group . Melanie wore a red dress today , her long hair was down , her skin was fair , and her figure was perfect . The dress on her looked elegant and a bit seductive . Estelle's eyes fell on Melanie's dress , looking envious . This dress was designed by Master Lily . At that time , Master Lily sent the design sketch of this dress and added the caption : " Bestie exclusive . " As soon as this post went up , a lot of people were super jealous . Claimed how they didn't have a friend as good as Master Lily . I didn't expect that this dress , which wasn't for sale , ended up on Melanie . As soon as Estelle thought about how Master Lily said Melanie's clothes were all custom - made for her , she just felt really upset . How did Melanie get so lucky to be friends with Master Lily ? Also , what kind of taste did Master Lily actually have ? She had such a strong background and was so talented , so why did she want to be friends with someone who was raised by a nightclub hostess ? Simon also noticed the dress on Melanie . His eyes darkened , " I know you're close with Master Lily , but you didn't have to show off like that . " Her doing that , where did it leave Esty's face ? Melanie glanced at him and walked right over to him . Simon instinctively took a step back , " What are you gonna do ? " Melanie snorted , " With guts like that , you still dared to lecture me ? Mr. Rasmussen , go work on your courage first , then come talk to me . " When she finished talking , she didn't even spare Simon a glance and just turned around and left . Simon looked upset , his teeth grinding . He really did hate Melanie . If she kept staying at home , she might've been pissed to death one day . He had to figure out a way to get Melanie out of the Rasmussen family . Estelle was pretty mad too , but she knew it wasn't the time to be angry . She said to Simon , " Simon , let's go . The chairman of MR Group is meeting us in person today , don't waste time . " Who would've thought , just in one night , the assistant to the chairman of MR Group suddenly called and wanted to meet them in person . 09:30 7.4 < Chapter 16 Estelle was so happy when she got the news that she couldn't sleep all night . Menu To make a good impression on the chairman of MR Group , she spent the whole night working on countless plans and finally came up with the one she liked best . She thought , I'll definitely make it today . MR Group . Estelle and Simon were led all the way to the chairman's office . Assistant to the Chairman of MR Group , Davon Swanson , was really arrogant and said , " You wait here . " Davon left that sentence , turned around and walked away . Didn't even get a chance to ask Estelle one more question . Just like that , Estelle and Simon were left hanging in the chairman's office . For two whole hours , they stood there properly . Estelle was already in ten - centimeter heels , and her legs were getting weak . She was really struggling to stay upright . She said to Simon , " Simon , should we go ask Davon ? I can't stand much longer . " Simon glanced at Estelle's high heels and said worriedly , " How about we sit for a while ? The chairman of MR Group probably had a last - minute meeting . " He actually couldn't really stand steady anymore . Usually at the company , he hardly walked , and he didn't get much exercise at home either . Now , after standing for over two hours , he felt a bit dizzy . But he didn't dare to ask Davon . The chance to meet the chairman of MR Group wasn't easy to get . Nobody knew if the chairman was testing them on purpose , so they couldn't ask . Estelle hesitated for a moment and said , " Then let's sit for ten minutes . I really can't stand anymore . " Estelle knew it wasn't really okay to sit down before the chairman showed up , but she just couldn't hold on anymore . But they had already waited for over two hours , so in these ten minutes , the chairman of MR Group probably wouldn't show up either . Simon nodded and let Estelle sit down on the guest chair across from the chairman's desk . I had just sat down for less than a minute when the office door was suddenly pushed open . Estelle got a fright and quickly stood up . But because she got up too quickly , she accidentally twisted her ankle , and tears welled up in her eyes from the pain . But when she saw who it was , her face changed completely . She couldn't pretend anymore and cried out , " Melanie , what are you doing here ? " Simon's face changed . He shouted angrily , " Who told you to come ? Get out of here right now ! " Melanie glanced at him with no expression and sat right across from him , in the chairman's special seat . Simon's eyes went wide , then he got really mad , " Melanie , are you crazy ? That's the MR Group chairman's private seat . If you want to 09:30 AD Suppert genuine reading 7.4 % C < Chapter 16 get yourself killed , don't drag us down with you . " Menu Estelle also said angrily , " Do you even know how hard it was to get this chance to meet the chairman of MR Group ? All the hopes of the Rasmussen family were on this project . Melanie , even if you were mad at me , you shouldn't joke about the fate of the Rasmussen family ! " Estelle took a deep breath , " The chairman of MR Group is coming soon , so hurry up and get out . Don't hold us up from doing real business . " Melanie leaned lazily against the back of her chair and glanced at them carelessly . Before she could say anything , Simon roared , " Didn't you hear me tell you to get out ? Melanie , if you mess up this deal , I won't let off ! " you Melanie crossed her arms and looked at Simon with a half - smile . " So , tell me , how are you not going to let me go ? " Actually , she didn't have time to mess around with these two minor characters today . She came to the company today to take back Warren's shares and end their partnership . A qualified ex should be like they're dead , completely gone from the other person's world . She was a really decent ex , so since she broke up with Warren , she thought it should be a clean break . But things between her and Warren weren't that easy to split up . MR Group was something she and Warren started together . She had 70 % of the funds , Warren had 30 % . She had 100 % decision - making power in the group , and Warren could only follow . But she and Warren had already broken up , so of course the company shares had to be taken back . That's why she came here today to sort this out . As for working with the Rasmussen family , she had Davon draft the contract last night . She was going to give it to Grandma today , but then she suddenly remembered that Estelle seemed really confident about this plan . Hmm ! She suddenly felt like playing . Didn't Winona care much about Estelle ? Wasn't she supposed to have raised a bunch of super smart geniuses ? Then she really wanted to see what kind of level the genius Winona talked about was . " You ! " Simon was furious , but he knew he couldn't do anything to Melanie . Melanie had her grandma backing her up , and she also had Warren , her fiancé with a powerful background . Even if Melanie really messed up this collaboration , she might not get kicked out of the Rasmussen family . But he couldn't gamble . Dad was already disappointed in him , he needed this partnership to secure his position in the company . Thinking of this , Simon took a deep breath and said patiently , " Even if I have to beg you , can you just leave first ? This chance really mattered to me . I'm begging you , don't mess it up . " . 09:30 7.4 % < Chapter 16 Melanie raised an eyebrow , " You sure you wanted me to leave ? " " Yeah! Get out of here ! " Simon almost shouted . He kept staring like crazy at the office door , scared the chairman of MR Group would walk in . Melanie's lips curled up a bit , " Fine ! I'm leaving ! " Simon didn't expect Melanie to be so easygoing , and he was a bit stunned . Menu Melanie had just walked halfway when she suddenly stopped and said , " The Rasmussen family's eldest son with an IQ of 180 turned out to be an idiot !
