His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 68: She Was Not Worthy at All 

When Lance saw that his men were entirely shocked, he turned to look as well, and his eyes instantly got widened.

"Vroom vroom vroom!"

The noise coming from the vehicle's exhaust pipe was deafening.

It was a Phantom Harley, a top-grade heavy motorcycle, speeding past towards them.It came into a slow halt in front of Lance.It was a heavy black colored motorcycle that looked so cool.

The person riding it pulled the helmet off from its head, and heavy black curls had begun falling from it, revealing a female's head.

The woman cautiously tossed and shook her head, perhaps to make her hair go back to its normal look, and when she did, it fluttered harmoniously in the wind, revealing a face that was owned by none other than Melody.

The epic scene had caused everyone present to stare in awe.

"Wow!"

"Oh my god!"

"Isn't she gorgeous?"

"She's so lovely and sexy at the same time, but with a hint of sassiness as well.The feeling was quite beyond words.It's ineffable."

Lance felt his heartbeat go wildly as if a new and strange emotion was about to explode from his chest.He felt like he was going to lose control.

Melody raised her eyebrows towards them.

Their mouths were still wide open like they could all swallow some eggs, gazing up at her in much awe.

"Don't you want to eat? Aren't you leaving?" She said coldly.

The iciness in her voice pulled Lance's wandering thoughts back to reality.He came back to his senses and nodded his head repeatedly.He was speechless and didn't know what to say.

Melody had put on the helmet again and spoke, and her attention was shifted to Lance.

"I'll wait for you at that place.I already know where it is."

She then stepped on the accelerator and sped off.After a while, she was no longer in front of everyone.

Clifford came back to his senses as well and patted Lance on the shoulder.

"Lance, our boss is too arrogant but gorgeous."

He stated matter-of-factly.

"You know what, Lance? I always knew that she was not worthy of being your friend.But to tell you what, now I think you should be grateful for being her friend"

He whispered bravely.He looked at Lance carefully after spitting those words out, assessing his reaction, scared that he would get angry and murder him right at that moment.

But Lance only stared at Clifford in an austere expression.

"You're talking nonsense, aren't you? Stop blabbering bullshit, okay? You're insulting her! Never speak about it again in the future." He said seriously.

Lance then hopped into his car.

Clifford was left stunned while staring at Lance's back.He now firmly believed that his master was possessed.

The devil was possessed.

In the vehicle, Lance scanned its inside interior.

Before Melody's motorcycle showed up, he loved his new car so much.He even didn't let Clifford touch it.

But now Melody's motorcycle had taken the gloss off his car.

No wonder his boss didn't want to get inside her car.

If he got that kind of motorcycle, he also didn't want to be in that car.

Lance reluctantly stepped on the accelerator, making plans on his head about going home tomorrow to get a new car.

He then sped off.

It wasn't long before they arrived at their destination.It was in a newly opened pizza parlor in town.

Clifford was the one who found it.

He had planned to come and try their menus but never had the chance to do it.

Not until now.It was Melody who decided to come and eat with them today.

Upon hearing about it, he suggested the pizza parlor.

Inside the establishment, everyone had settled themselves.

The waiter then gave them the menu, which Lance took subconsciously.

He then passed it to Melody and asked with a hint of respect in his voice.

"Boss, here you are.What do you want to eat?"

Melody couldn't hide her annoyance.She didn't want to be treated so formally because it was just a meal as far as she was concerned.

'There was no need for them to be too formal.They could order what they wanted and then pass the menu to the others.It's that simple' Melody thought.

"I'll take what I want to eat.And you guys could order what you want" she told everyone.

When everything was already served, Lance couldn't help but stare at Melody's food.

A jolt of happiness lurched inside him.

He felt as though he was special.

Who wouldn't when almost all the food that his boss had ordered was exactly what he liked.

The pizza parlor was buzzing with customers that day.

It had just been recently opened to the public but had already garnered much popularity.

The restaurant was still attracting a massive crowd of people, trying to taste their food.

This was the kind of place a food lover, lven Adams, wouldn't miss.

His group of scoundrels had already arranged a private room and invited him to come.

lven walked in leisurely.

His face was relaxed and calm.

But when he went up to the second floor and looked down, he spotted a very familiar figure which drew him to an immediate halt.

He widened his eyes and looked at the person carefully. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Then, when he was certain he was not mistaken, he decided to do something about it.

He was noticed by one of his men and went beside him quickly.

"Sir lven, what's the matter?" He asked.

lven glanced at the man, fished out his phone from his pocket, and stood aside to make a phone call.

At the Harrison Corporation In the president's office, a meeting was currently on the run.

A few members of the company's executives were there.

The atmosphere in the entire office was both quiet and solemn.

Yet, everyone was involved in the presentation.

Until a phone rang.It was an abrupt and needing sound, waiting to be picked up.It permeated all through the four walls of the quiet office.

Everyone looked a little flustered.

They subconsciously turned their gazes in the same direction.

Seth Harrison glanced at the phone in front of him and picked it up casually.He raised his hand to signal the presenter to stop talking.

On the other line, Iven's excited voice came.

"Seth, do you want to eat some pizza?"

Hearing this, Seth almost hung up, but he didn't.lven must have sensed something on the other line, so he shouted abruptly.

"Seth, Melody is here!" Seth froze for a moment.

He then put his phone closer to his ear and vehemently spat out a word.

"Location!"

"I've already sent it to you, Sir.I'll be waiting here.I promise not to take my eyes off her!"

Seth hung up the phone and stood up.

Austin immediately picked up his coat and put it on him.He then walked out of the office without leaving behind a word of excuse.

The group of senior executives was left astounded and looked at each other in dismay.

No one could tell why the president left the meeting.But at the same time, no one could also argue.

Because if it was the president who decided to adjourn the meeting, reason or no reason, no argument could stop it.

Perhaps, something important had come.

At the pizza parlor, Lance and the others had already started eating.

They ate noisily and enthusiastically.

Lance and his men were kind of worried at first, thinking that Melody would not enjoy and like the idea of going out to this place because Melody was a crabbed young lady with a hint of coldness in her personality.She was far from being outgoing and friendly.

They didn't reasonably expect that things would run smoothly beyond their expectations.

Melody wasn't acting crabby at all.

Although she spoke very little and still wore that cold expression on her face, she still ate and drank as if she were one of them.She had this comfortable aura with her despite her being serious and cold.

And this kind of disposition made the people surrounding her feel relaxed.

Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Clifford started to suggest drinking beers to liven things up.

Lance glanced at Melody.

When he saw that she was quite okay with it, he asked the waiter to serve them beer.

When the drinks came, Lance put a bottle in front of her.

"Boss, do you want some?" He asked.

She did not answer and was about to reach for the bottle when an unexpected event happened.

A hand suddenly appeared from nowhere and took the bottle of beer from the table.

Everyone turned around in utter bewilderment!
