"Shaun, I heard that your company has already bought the department store stocks owned by FX International Group?" Melissa Xue leaned against Shaun with an excessively sweet smile. She casually tossed some loose hair behind her ear as she thought, 'You pushed me too far, Edward. Look what you made me do. You left me with no choice. I have to fight back and avenge for myself. I will make sure that you suffer what I have suffered. You are in my list too, Daisy. I will not spare you.'
"My darling. Don't you worry about it! I am at your service. I will definitely do my promise to you. I am so obsessed about you that I am willing to do anything for you!" With these earnest words, Shaun curled up his lips and touched her breasts swiftly. His vulgar gesture made her frown but she didn't push him away. She looked up and saw the obvious lust in his eyes.
"Hey, there are people around here." She flirtatiously snapped at him with a smile. Then, she threw him an inviting glance and giggled with her hand over her mouth. Like always, her tease successfully caught his attention. Shaun laughed and said, "Oh come on, I clearly remember how you behaved in the bed. I have to say, I enjoyed every second of it." She was such a sexy goddess and he was obsessed with her body. Whatever she said, he would obey. He was merely a humble servant in front of her.
"Shaun, stop it! Otherwise, I will head back to the room right now." Melissa pouted her lips and pretended to be annoyed. She behaved like a little girl who had just been told off. She was not acting her age at all.
"You are really full of surprises, aren't you? I think you just can't get enough of me. Baby, I know you can't wait to have me in the bed again. I must perform even better in order to satisfy you further!" Although Shaun graduated from Harvard University with merits, he was a typical playboy. He had been squandering his family's wealth at his will. Sex and alcohol were his all-time indulgence. He met Melissa by chance and ever since then, he had been fooling around with her and eventually was completely manipulated by her.
"Hey you! Quiet down! Heads are turning because of your voice. You should really stop talking bullshit here. People are judging me now!" Melissa quickly extended her hand and covered his babbling mouth. The only reason why she entertained Shaun was because she wanted to ask for something from him. Proud woman as she was, Melissa considered herself way too good for a low-class playboy like him!
Edward and Rain exchanged looks with each other. The female voice sounded quite familiar. Was she the actual wicked Jessica? But how come she looked utterly different now? This woman only resembled Jessica in terms of voice and figure. Her face was utterly different, even her hairstyle had changed a lot. Jessica had wavy long hair, however, this woman had a head of straight black hair, dazzling with charm.
Rain raised an eyebrow and curled up his lips to silently signal Edward, 'Dude, check this woman out! She is the one you once dumped. You should really accept the fact that she is a total bitch. By the way, the look overhaul is pathetic! How could she think that we'll not recognize her just by changing her face? Pathetic, Dude. Over pathetic! She should have changed her voice through surgery as well! Otherwise, we can totally call her bullshit and recognise her!'
Edward's eyebrows furrowed in distress as he read Rain's mind. Rain did have a good point here. Edward thought for a second and then smiled wickedly. He thought to himself, 'Jessica, you are asking for it now! I did have mercy on you and thought about letting you go. However, you crossed the line too far this time. I wouldn't sit quietly and ignore your behaviour. Don't blame me for being cruel on you. You asked for it!'
"Boss, please excuse me for asking this straight, was she this slutty before?" Tom's voice was cautiously low as he looked at Edward. He was not familiar with Jessica. However, he could still recognize her as she had been with Mr. Mu for some while.
"Some people do change by the time. Not to mention that she was not really a good woman to begin with." Edward smirked. His idea about her seemed to be correct. 'She was a typical slut who knew how to manipulate men using sex as her forte'.
"You are right. I can't be happier that you dumped her. Otherwise, who knew what kind of things she would do to you? Her betrayal would definitely cuckold you." Rain winked at Edward and laughed. He found it funny to tease Edward about how he spoiled that bitch. How foolish was it to waste time and money on someone who wasn't even worth a penny? That was too cheap! He should have known that her manipulative ways would get him nowhere! Jessica was indeed smart. She had outshone all the beautiful women before thus she became Edward's lover.
"I don't care about her sleeping around. I dumped her and whatever she did was no longer my concern. She can sleep with as many men as she wants to. Now that I know about their purpose, I am able to deal with them much more easily." Edward raised his chin up and mockingly smiled. He thought to himself, 'Shaun. You are one piece of dead meat. Just wait and see how I destroy your Kompass Group!'
"What a rare opportunity! I literally can't wait to kick their asses! You guys should really let me do it. Consider this as a gift from these two to us, FX International Group!" Rain rubbed his palms together and looked all excited. He was really shocked to see Jessica here since the workload in FX Group nowadays was overbearing. Everyone was supposed to be fully occupied. Never had he expected to see her here as she schemed with her lover. Rain thought to himself 'It will be unfair to those devoted and hard-working employees of FX International Group if I let you slip today.'
Hey, you should really reconsider it. I don't think it is wise to cause a scene here. Are you absolutely sure that you want to challenge them here in your own hotel? Aren't you afraid of bad publicity?" Tom's eyebrows furrowed as he slowly shook his head. Many people were dining there and he was concerned about the consequence.
"Don't you worry about it! I know what I am doing." With these words, Rain stood up and walked towards Shaun's table with a glass of wine in his hand. His steps were casual as if he was on holiday. Some might even say that the way he walked was dangerously charming.
Melissa's charming face froze the moment she saw Rain. She went pale as she was utterly shocked by his presence. It only took her some seconds to calm herself down though and decided to cover her awkwardness with sly giggles. She was aware that she was no longer the same woman she used to be! She was confident that she would absolutely get away with her new face. Her completely changed look would make it impossible for him to recognize her. However, she was slightly concerned that Edward might be there as well. The two men were known to hang around together publicly whenever and wherever. Edward was the one that Melissa found harder to deal with. The thought that her ex was there made her brain overwork. So what if Edward was really there as well? Was she in big trouble now? Melissa's face went dark as her smile turned from sweet to awkward.
Rain observed her look carefully and straight away noticed that she was nervous and scared. He stared at her and mentally laughed hard. 'This stupid woman! Where'd she get the guts to challenge FX International Group? However, now that she saw me here, she looks as if she saw a ghost! I wonder what would happen if Edward shows up here. Huh, would she faint on her seat?'
"Melissa, what's wrong? Your face looks pale. Are you feeling alright?" Shaun noticed that there was something wrong with the woman next to her. He was confused about Melissa's sudden change and couldn't take his eyes off her.
