Chapter 44
Chapter 44 Jack paused, and the crowd instantly fell silent, waiting for him to continue. His face suddenly became a little gloomy. “I believe that all the guests here know what happened to Mellis Group a few days ago, and I’m very sad about it. But in order for Mellis Group to flourish, I’ve decided to announce my new heir tonight. Nancy, in front of all of you.” At the end of his words, he turned his head and motioned for everyone to look upstairs. At this time. Nancy had changed into a new light yellow dress, and her fluffy curly hair was wrapped around her right shoulder. Even her makeup seemed to have been mended and she looked much more delicate. The smile on her gentle and elegant face was just right as if nothing had happened more than an hour ago. The guests applauded when they saw her.. Having learned her lesson, Nancy stopped being pretentious and went downstairs at a steady speed. She slowly walked up to Jack and hugged him. After that, Jack walked off the stage. She left the stage to Nancy. Nancy held the microphone. Under the spotlight, her eyes were slightly red, and she couldn’t suppress the excitement in her heart. “Thank you, Mom and Dad, for giving me a chance to fulfill my responsibilities for the Mellis Group. I will do my best to learn about the company’s affairs and strive to help the Mellis Group go up to the next level. Thank you very much for attending my banquet tonight. I hope everyone can have a good time tonight.” Thinking that her speech was over, the guests applauded again. But Nancy just paused for a moment and continued, looking a little shy. “Maybe many guests here know about it, but I still want to invite you in public. In a month, I will officially hold an engagement ceremony with Mr. Fallen, the president of the Fallen Group at the Easter Hotel. I
hope you can all come to witness our love.” Her face was full of happiness as she spoke. She looked at Edgar sweetly, but glanced at Grace out of the corner of her eye. Hearing this, Tom subconsciously turned to look at Grace next to him. Her face was expressionless as she leisurely sipped a glass of red wine. Tom was still a little worried and comforted her. “Grace, it hasn’t been long since this s cumbag divorced. He’s already gotten engaged again. He’s really a jerk. Fortunately, you’ve divorced. Also, this so-called Miss Mellis deliberately announced at the banquet to put on airs. What a scheming b itch.” Grace was amused by him and burst into laughter. “You’ve said everything. What else can I say?”
Nancy saw them laughing and chatting on the stage. “This bit ch is pretending to be calm. Does she not take me seriously at all?” Nancy thought. A trace of pure poison flashed across her eyes. After bowing slightly to the audience, he stepped down from the stage and began to propose a toast one by one. Emma led her to greet the guests. The waiter followed them with the wine. Nancy made a toast to the guests one after another. Soon, it was Grace’s turn. After toasting the others, Nancy raised her glass of red wine and looked at Grace with a natural expression. “Grace, there was a little misunderstanding between us just now. I think you are a generous person. You won’t be mad about it, will you?” Nancy looked at Grace and said. Grace also picked up the red wine next to her, looked up at Nancy, and said with a slight smile, “Miss Mellis, you may not know me very well. I am a vengeful person, and I always seek revenge.” Chapter 44 The smile on Nancy’s face cracked a little, and in an instant, her smile became brighter. She slowly approached her ear. From the looks of the people around, they got along very well.
“You must be upset when you heard that I shared my love with Edgar Just now, right? You suffered a lot for him in the Fallen family for three years, but in the end, you could only leave in disgrace. Honestly, I feel so sorry for you.” Nancy smiled sarcastically. Grace sneered and said, “I’m really sorry. I don’t think I’ve seen how much Miss Mellis and Mr. Fallen love each other. I only know that you have bad taste, can’t even tell if something is fake. Presumably, your taste in man is not good either.” Nancy smiled stiffly when she thought of what happened just now. She was so angry that she clenched the wine glass in her hand and lowered her voice. “Don’t be complacent too early. It’s hard to say who will win. I won’t let you off!TM She smiled harmlessly but her words were cruel. Grace raised her eyebrows lazily. “I’ll wait, but before that, I want to share something with you.” Nancy took two steps back to keep a suitable distance from him. She was a little suspicious. “What is it?” From an outsider’s point of view, they seemed to have just finished whispering – Grace clicked on her phone, put a photo in front of Nancy, and raised her lips playfully. “Isn’t it interesting?” “You!” Nancy glanced at it and could no longer suppress the anger in her heart. Nancy thought, “Bi tch! “How dare she provokes me with these photos?” She was so angry that she subconsciously reached out to grab the phone. Grace put her phone away before she could touch it. “You’ve gone too far!” Nancy couldn’t take it anymore. She subconsciously splashed the red wine in her hand at Grace. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Tom who was sitting next to him saw it clearly. His expression changed and he was about to get up to block it. “Woosh…” The red wine splashed on her face, and her delicate makeup was eclipsed. The dark red wine stains instantly stained her light yellow dress. Nancy wiped the wine stains off her face in disbelief. In an instant, her raised hand was pressed down, and Grace splashed her wine mercilessly on her face. Grace won again. She was faster than Nancy. Nancy was furious. The noise disturbed the guests at the next table, and the anger in the eyes of Nancy immediately turned into grievance. “Boohoo… Grace, I just hope you can bless me and Edgar. Why did you do this?” She began to so b with grievance. Hearing the noise, the guests gathered around to watch the fun. Seeing this, everyone thought that Grace was bullying Nancy. After all, Tom had always been known as the devil. It was normal for a female companion to take advantage of his power. The group of people began to criticize Grace. Grace didn’t bother to refute. She just looked at Nancy coldly and said, “How many times have you used this trick? Won’t you get tired of it?” A guest handed Nancy a handkerchief. Nancy wiped the wine stains on her face. “I don’t understand what you mean, Grace. I just want you to let go of Edgar. I really love him. And my engagement party is coming soon. Can’t you bless us?” There seemed to be a story behind these words. Everyone was watching the show.
Hearing the noise, Bonnie rushed over. When she saw Nancy being splashed, she was shocked. “What’s going on?” Nancy was about to explain when Tom spoke first. His tone was very cold, and his eyes were filled with anger. “The Mellis family has done a good job. First, they wanted to slander my female companion for wearing a fake dress, and now Nancy is accusing her. Are you trying to bully the Walker family? I’ll remember this!” He snorted heavily and left with Grace without looking back. The other guests did not dare to provoke him and made way for him one after another. Emma came over just then, stunned by the situation. What was going on? Wasn’t Nancy bullied?
