Melissa didn't say anything and didn't have much of an expression.
The assistant rolled her eyes at Corey, "Mr. Corey, you're shameless and scheming. Do you want to piggyback on Melissa's popularity? Because she just won the Best Actress?"
Corey ignored her sarcasm and always looked at Melissa, "Melissa, I really know I was wrong. Just give me another chance! I'm worse than dead without you. Come back to me, okay?"
Melissa laughed about that. When Corey cheated on her, she had clearly seen this scum's true intention.
Now, she would not believe any words he said, and she only felt ironical.
She remembered Lyra's ruthlessness when she treated the scum and the bitch. Slowly, she took out a delicate little dagger from the drawer, a souvenir left behind after her last scene was shot.
Corey watched her take it into her hands and play with it, feeling worried, "Be careful, don't cut your hand. I'll be heartbroken."
Melissa felt disgusted about what he said and handed the dagger to him.
Without her soft and naive face as before, she calmly said, "Since you said your life will be worse than death without me, why don't you kill yourself with this dagger now? Then I'll believe you love me."
Corey's face was pale and he looked at her in shock.
When did Melissa the fool become not easy to be fooled around?
He took the dagger from her hand, but was afraid it would cut himself a tiny bit.
"Melissa, if I really die, I won't never be able to be with you. Are you really willing to let me kill myself?"
"But if you don't die, how can you prove that you really love me? How can you prove that you're truly repentant?"
"I ..."
Corey hardened himself to pressing the blade to his wrist, hesitating to do so.
Melissa reminded him, "If you just make a bloody and sallow cut, it does not count. You have to cut your artery, and make your blood flow like water. Then I can believe you."
Corey felt painful when he thought about it. His hand shook and the dagger fell to the ground.
He grabbed Melissa's gown and pleaded with her, "Melissa, don't do this, okay? Let's be back together! I'll be twice as good to you as I was before! Just give me another chance!"
Melissa lifted her high heels directly and kicked him hard.
"Get out! I won't believe any of your sweet words anymore! You'd better make a detour when you see me in the future. If you dare to pester me again, I will fight you to the end! I will make you lose all your money! At that time, you can't even afford to eat instant noodles!"
Corey was stupefied and froze at her look as she said those harsh words.
Was this the same Melissa he used to know?
"Melissa, I ..."
"Get out!"
Melissa didn't want to hear any more nonsense from him, "If you keep pestering me, I'll report you for harassment!"
The two women, the agent and the assistant, immediately became fierce and drove Corey far away.
With Corey leaving, Melissa's unpleasantness she just had because of Corey disappeared, and she took out her phone and took a picture of the trophy and sent it to Keith.
Attachment: [Thanks to Mr. Keith for the guide and support. It's my achievement. Are you still satisfied with that?]
Within a minute, she received a message from Keith.
Keith: [You will make me more satisfied at night]
Melissa instantly blushed.
This man was really getting ...
She put down her phone and continued to refine her makeup because Keith would come quietly to pick her up later and she was not taking the bus back, so her agent and assistant left first.
The entire lounge soon became completely quiet.
Outside the door, there was the sound of a handle turning. Melissa glanced at a pair of man's leather shoes standing not far from her. She thought it was Corey again.
Her tone was disgusted and impatient, "Corey, you're stupid and deaf too?"
The man, who was standing in the doorway, did not respond and did not move.
Melissa wondered and turned her head to see an unfamiliar face she had never seen before.
"You are?"
