Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker

The questions asked by the media were tricky and mean. They directly slandered Wilmot for accusing Silk Beauty Cosmetics 

Wilmot opened his mouth and was about to speak when Jessica came up to him again and questioned him at the top of her lungs. “Wilmot, what right do you have to say that All–Purpose Water, whom Silk Beauty painstakingly researched and created, was the result of stealing your formula! 

you afraid of being struck by lightning for slandering me like this?” 

Aren’t 

Upon hearing this, even someone as calm as Wilmot was so agitated that blue veins popped out on his forehead. “Jessica, don’t you have any 

shame!” 

Jessica asked. “Tm shameless? If I hadn’t come over to demand an explanation, you’d have turned me into a black sheep! You have to be responsible for your words and actions. Because of your accusations, our brand’s image has been completely tarnished. Is this your goal? Are you shameless?” 

“You… Wilmot clenched his fists in angen 

When Jessica saw Wilmot’s actions, she raised her chin and said, “Your lie has been exposed. Are you going to hit me? There are so many people here. Do you dare to hit me?” 

Wilmot took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress his anger. 

When the other executives of ley Clear Cosmetics saw this, they were also furious and hurriedly went forward. Jessica, you know best who’s the shameless one!” 

A person said. “You poached our staff and took away our formula. Now, you’re bringing a group of media outlets to slander our chairman. Aren’t you afraid of retribution?” 

Someone else asked, “Get that traitor to come out and speak“” 

Jessica sneered in her heart, but on the surface, she looked innocent. Traitor Could it be that all the employees who left your company are traitors? Isn’t the ley Clear Cosmetics too unreasonable?” 

Jessica, you… Seeing that the higher–ups were about to lose control of their emotions, Wilmot quickly turned has head and signaled the people behind him not to be rash 

After waiting for his subordinates to quiet down, Wilmot looked up at Jessica. “What the hell do you want?” 

Clear Cosmetics caused Silk Beauty to 

Jessica pursed her lips and said. “I don’t want to do anything. I just want to take back what I deserve. The icy Clear Co suffer huge losses and slander. You have to compensate us for all our losses” 

Wilmot frowned. “Compensation Then what about our losses?” 

Jessica said righteously. “Your losses were caused by yourselves. The Golden Water series has been launched for so long, but you’ve been stagnant and haven’t developed any new product. Without us, the market you have would have been snatched away by others sooner or later. How should others compensate you?” 

There were no new products after Golden Water, which was indeed a weakness of ley Clear Cosmetics. 

Wilmot calmed himself down. He wanted to know what Jessica’s motive was today. He calmed down and asked, “What do you want!” 

Jessica said, “Very easy! I’m interested in acquiring Icy Clear Cosmetics. As long as you agree to the acquisition, I can let bygones be bygones and promise you the position of the company’s executive.” 

Wilmot said, “Impossible!” 

Jessica was not surprised by Wilmor’s attitude. She raised her eyebrows and said. “You can disagree with the acquisition, but I can also sue you for defamation” 

As she spoke, she lowered her voice and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear. “Wilmot, wake up. Our All–Purpose Water has already been distributed throughout the country. The longer it drags on, the less valuable the ley Clear Cosmetics will be. If you agree to me now, I can even give you some share of the company.”

your dreams!” 

Wilmor said, 

Jessica’s expression was ugly. “Wilmot, you are asking for trouble.” 

At this moment, a cold voice sounded. “Who said Icy Clear Cosmetics doesn’t have new products?” 

Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice and saw an ugly girl w 

1 with red spots on her face walking over with a faint smile. 

A person asked. “Who is this woman?” 

Another person said, “The kid behind her seems to be Wilmor’s son.” 

Someone else asked, “Could she be Wilmot’s wife” 

Amidst the discussion, Jessica said mockingly, “Wilmot, so you like this kind of woman now! I’ve investigated her. She’s a piece of trash that the Fox family raised in the countryside. At this time, you actually want a piece of trash to speak up for you!” 

Wilmot lowered his voice and warned. “Jessica, I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t hit women. 

When Jessica saw the viciousness on Wilmot’s face, she could not help but shut her mouth in 

fear 

“Melody” Wilmot almost came forward. After instructing his assistant to take Shane away, he lowered his voice and said, “The media is here. Leave quickly, the Fox family is already a headache for you. Don’t get involved in this mess lest you get implicated” 

“Don’t w WOITY 

about me. Melody gave Wilmot a reassuring look and said. “You’ve helped me many times. This time, it’s any turn to help you. But you have to trust me, okay?” 

Wilmot hesitated for a moment. Before he could think it through. Melody had already walked up to Jessica. “Miss Summers, we meet again. You’re really impressive. You always bring so many people with you every time we meet.” 

Jessica sneered and said nonchalantly, “What does this situation have to do with a country bumpkin like you? It’s better for you to stay at home and take care of your child. Don’t come out and scare people” 

Melody’s expression did not change, but the smile on her face became even brighter, 

She faced Jessica’s mock calmly and said lightly. Tjust heard you say that ley Clear Cosmetics does 

t have any new products. Didn’t the person you tried so hard to poach tell you that our new products are being developed and will be on the market soon! 

Jessica’s face stiffened. “What nonsense are you talking about? That’s impossible!” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Melody asked, “Why are you so sure, Miss Sumners? Could it be that you know what’s going on in the R&D department of Icy Clear Cosmetics” 

Jessica gritted her teeth. “Shut up!” 

Melody said, “Miss Summers, don’t be angry. I want to make a bet with you. The stakes are our respective companies. I wonder if you dare?” 

soon as she said this, the higher–ups of Jessica’s company and Wilmor’s comapny started discussing 

Especially Wilmor’s staff, with Leo as the leader, they all whispered in Wilmot’s car. “Wilmot, who is this person? Why is she betting with the future of our company?“. 

Another person asked, “Chairman, did you arrange this!” 

Someone else asked. “Is this your stalling tactic? Otherwise, it’s too much nonsense. Where would we get a new product.. 

Wilmat’s eyes were also filled with surprise. He looked deeply at Melody and remembered that Melody wanted him to trust her. He suddenly gritted his teeth and said. This is my arrangement. Just support it.” 

With Wilmers words, the higher–ups of Icy Clear Cosmetics calmed down a little. 

Melody looked at Jessica and smiled. “Why aren’t you saying anything. Miss Summers? Are you afraid to bet?“ 

Jessica was enraged by Melody. “How do you want to bet?” 

Melody smiled faintly and said. “Very easy. Compare our new product to your All–Purpose Water. If the experts think that our new product is more effective and harmless than All–Purpose Water, please give up the position of Silk Beauty Cosmetics’s chairman.” 

Upon hearing this, Jessica’s mind raced. 

She thought. Henry, whom I had poached, had just left ley Clear Cosmetics not long ago. He had never mentioned anything about a new product. This little time is not enough for ley Clear Cosmetics to develop a new product. With just this village girl from the countryside and Wilmot’s research and development team, they need at least a couple of years to come up with a new product. This ugly woman must have scared me on purpose to embarrass me in front of the media. But I will not fall for it! This woman is too stupid. She actually uses such a huge bet to bet with me. She is really an idiot. Isn’t she taking the initiative to give lcy Clear Cosmetics to me for free? No wonder the Fox family didn’t want this idiot. She is so stupid. 

Thinking that she would definitely win, Jessica agreed without hesitation. “Alright, so be it. When the time comes, I’ll invite all the famous experts
