Chapter 79 Meeting Melanie Alone I answered the call and heard Melanie’s usual arrogant tone, “Ihave something to tell you.

Let’s meet.” I “Why didn’t you tell me that when you were at my place just now?” I asked.

“It concerns us, not something suitable to say in front of the others.

Come to Midnight Bar now!” She hung up without waiting for my response.

While holding my phone, I wondered what Melanie was up to.

Still, I wanted to know what she had to say, so I rolled out of bed and checked the time.

It was almost noon, so the bar wouldn’t be open at this hour.

After some thought, I decided to play it safe and changed into jeans, a T–shirt, and a pair of casualflats.

I tried calling Ivanna as I drove in case something went wrong.

Unfortunately, she was out of town.

I I hesitated while holding my phone and finally called Atlas.

Immediately after, I decided against it since.

Melanie knew I had met with him before.

I knew it was best not to complicate things and hung up the call as I arrived at the bar.

It seemed Melanie frequented places like this.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have asked me to meet her.

The many rooms along the corridor resembled a maze, with every junction leading to another corridor.

“Hal I didn’t expect you to arrive so quickly!” She laughed, but her laughter gave me an aerie feeling.

It made me far less comfortable than facing her ously hostile demeanor.

Ever since I witnessed her entanglement with Matthew, I couldn’t help but She reached out as if to holdme, but I avoided her dirty hand.

“What did you want to tell me?” I opened the door with my foot and glanced inside the room, realizing itwas empty.

After confirming it was safe, I walked in and sat on the couch, looking at Melanie.

“I’m listening” Melanie followed me in, swaying her hips in a way she thought was alluring.novelbin

However, it made me nauseous.

Suddenly, I realized why Matthew was attracted to her.

I finally discovered why he called me ” stiff.” Melanie strode over and sat on the seat beside me.

She looked at me with excitement, joy, and wickedness.

a glass, saying I saw an already–opened bottle of red wine on the table.

Melanie reached for it and poured a “Chloe, I knew you’d come as soon as I called you.

I’m sure you’ve never been here before, right? Take a guess for Matt.”
