Melody could not believe what she heard.
She stared at Micheal with her eyes wide open. "You mean that my dad is afraid of Jeanne!"
"1 don't know if Chief is afraid of Jeanne, but there's one thing that I am sure of. He doesn't want us to have a direct conflict with her."
"Why?"
"He won't tell me," Micheal said straightforwardly.
"I'm going to ask him!"
"I advise you not to!" Micheal stopped her. "If Chief would tell you, he wouldn't have grounded you and not said anything."
Melody gritted her teeth.
"Mel, you grew up in a complicated environment in the Sanders. You should know very well that a moment of mistake can lead to eternal damnation. Now that you're so favored by Chief, many people are jealous of you and would love nothing more than for something to happen to you. So, you have to be careful in everything you do!" Micheal sounded serious. "Luckily, Chief didn't really pursue this matter this time. If he were to pursue it, it would be very difficult for you to walk out of this room again."
Melody was shocked for a second.
Indeed.
It was risky to stay with someone of high position.
Melody had known this since she was young.
She looked at Micheal.
Micheal said, "If you calm down, get someone to help you pass on a message to Chief so that he'll lift your grounding. However, don't confront Jeanne directly when you get out."
"Should I just watch her develop and deliberately fall in love with Edward then?’" Melody could not bear it in the end.
When she thought of how Edward and Jeanne slept together that day, she could not calm herself down.
She wished that she could kill Jeanne!
"For the time being, let's wait and see," Micheal suggested.
Melody could not bear it.
"I skipped work to come here. I still have many things to deal with, so I'll be leaving first." Micheal did not say anything else after that.
Many things needed to be thought through by Melody herself.
Melody grew up in a special environment, after all. She knew how to protect herself.
"Micheal," Melody called out to him.
"Hm?" Micheal nodded.
"1'11 definitely kill Jeanne," Melody enunciated each word clearly.
Micheal frowned slightly.
"It doesn't have to be done by me, but I won't let her
have it easy." "Mel..."
"Don't try to persuade me." Melody was straightforward. "I know how to control myself. I won't be so stupid as to sacrifice myself."
Micheal looked at her.
"Can't we use Eden?" Melody sneered. "Let Eden fight with Jeanne. What do you think?"
"Eden can't defeat her," Micheal gave a positive answer.
Not to mention that they did not know Jeanne's identity before, now that they knew her identity was extraordinary, it was even more impossible for Eden to defeat her.
"If I can't do it openly, I'll do it covertly," Melody said coldly, "I'm just using someone else to kill her."
Micheal still wanted to persuade her.
In the end, he fell silent.
Micheal could not persuade Melody to let go. He knew very well that her personality was strong. She had lost badly to Jeanne, so she could not just let it go. As such, it was useless for Micheal to say more. Instead, it would make Melody think that he was timid and afraid of things, which would affect their relationship.
That said...
In dealing with Jeanne, Micheal would not interfere too much.
Compared to Melody, the person he should be fawning over was the chief.
Melody was just a stepping stone in his power and career.
At Swanhaven Bank.
Recently, Eden was also in a state of extreme anger and depression because of Jeanne's news.
It was even to the extent that he was teased due to Jeanne suddenly being in her prime.
Eden was teased about why he chose Jasmine back then!
Was Jeanne not a good catch?
Was Jeanne, who was both beautiful and capable, not good enough for him?!
Eden gritted his teeth.
He knew he would be tied up and trampled on once Jeanne developed!
Eden then thought about how Jeanne had seduced his fourth uncle...
If his fourth uncle really married Jeanne...
He would not be able to accept it!
Eden could not accept that Jeanne was stepping on him.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
It was until his phone rang.
Eden looked at the incoming call and quickly tried to calm himself down.
He picked up and said, "Ms. Sanders."
"What happened to what I told you?" Melody asked straightforwardly.
Eden was stunned.
'What did Melody say?’
'I heard from Micheal that she's been grounded these few days’
'She must be sleepwalking!'
"About killing Jeanne," Melody enunciated each word.
