A Whisper that went unheard novel Chapter 156

"Jeremy's right, but it's also proof that Krys is absolutely excellent." Andrew chuckled and said, "Melody, don't let it bring you down. Learn from Krys, and you'll have plenty of opportunities coming your way."

Melody was utterly disheartened. It was painfully obvious that Andrew and Laura were just using her to make Krystal look better. So, she excused herself and found a quiet corner to sit by herself.

Before long, Denvin showed up. He made his way to her and asked, "What are you doing here alone?"

Melody responded, "I'm a little tired, so I'm taking a break here." Then, she asked, "Earlier, you said that Regallo Group would make donations to orphanages. Is that true?"

It was a promise that Denvin had made to her.

However, he soon came to realize that the case was trickier than imagined, and resolution wouldn't come by easily. So, he swore to Melody that he would provide the orphanages with assistance under Regallo Group's name. That was the best he could do for her.

After all, they weren't just talking about Green Moon Orphanage. They were talking about every orphanage in Jembina that had been deceived by the Regallo Charity Foundation.

But the condition remained that Melody had to be the one to expose Celestial Group's true color.

Denvin scoffed. "I'm a man of my word."

"Yeah. I believe in you, Denvin." Melody's tone was more sincere when she called his name this time. She knew very well that Denvin's promise carried a lot of weight. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to grow Regallo Group to what it was today.

Denvin couldn't stand the tone in Melody's voice. In fact, he was starting to feel a little impatient too. However, when he raised his eyes and saw the timid look on her face, he fought to contain his feelings.

He scoffed once more. Then, he raised his hand and vigorously rubbed Melody's head. His voice was deep as he spoke, "I've said it once, and I'll say it again—I am not your elder brother. So, don't go thinking that we're close because of this."

Melody's hair was soft to the touch. It reminded Denvin of the cat he used to have a long time ago.
