Chapter 342 The Annoying Melinda
Melinda said she didn't hear her phone ring. Then she turned her head and continued to stare at Marcus with burning eyes.
Marcus's face darkened. Then he tugged at his tie.
Sometimes, he really wanted to hit those who annoyed him even though they are women.
"Hello, you are Jane's friend, right?"
Katherine's voice sounded clear and nice. Because she had studied ballet and folk dance since she was a child, she had a good temperament and was the kind of person who could make people take a liking to her at first glance in a crowd.
Jane was delighted to introduce her good friend Nancy to her sister.
Katherine bowed slightly. She looked at Nancy with a gentle smile on her face.
"I'm Jane's sister, Katherine. Jane told me a lot about you. It's nice to meet you, Nancy."
Katherine greeted Nancy in a mature manner. Then, she extended her slender hand to Nancy. In this way, she wouldn't appear too enthusiastic or let others think that she had neglected the kid.
Nancy smiled as she reached out and shook her hand.
"Hello, Katherine."
However, Melinda, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but be angry when she saw how well they were getting along. And she couldn't even hide the jealous look in her eyes.
"About what I said..."
"Get out!"
At this point, Marcus looked grim. He had a fierce and cold look in his eyes.
Melinda was so frightened that her face turned pale. Then she took a few quick steps back and never dared to approach Marcus again, but she was still unwilling to give up.
Katherine noticed that it seemed to be a bit awkward between Marcus and Melinda. And Melinda's words and behaviors left Katherine speechless.
How could Melinda be so confident in herself? How could ordinary people like them be worthy of Marcus?
Katherine even wanted to roll her eyes at Melinda.
"Sorry to bother you. I'm about to take Jane home."
Nancy stood beside Marcus to block Melinda from getting close again and glared at her.
Melinda was so annoying that she even angered Marcus.
Upon hearing Katherine's words, Nancy blinked and said, "But Jane said she wanted to come over to my house and play with me."
Jane quickly said, "Nancy, I'll come to your house next time. Now I'm going back to accompany my sister."
Then Nancy nodded and said, "Alright."
"No... How can you not keep your word?"
Melinda was so anxious that she quickly grabbed Jane's hand. She said, "Jane, don't you want to hang out with your friend? I'll go with you!"
No! If Jane didn't go to Nancy's home, she would also have no reason to be there.
Jane looked miserable. "Let go of me! You're hurting me!"
"Melinda!"
Katherine's face changed. Then she slapped Melinda hard on the back of her hand. With a loud slap, Melinda cried out in pain and shook Jane's hand away.
"What the hell are you doing? Katherine, are you looking for death?"
Katherine took Jane's hand and noticed that the red marks on Jane's wrist were particularly obvious. The child's skin was very tender, and Melinda had just pulled Jane's wrist with great force. Moreover, her nails were so long that she scratched the skin on the back of Jane's hand.
Katherine's face turned red with anger. "What the hell do you want to do? Melinda, are you so eager for a man? Why do you want to approach any handsome and rich man you have ever met? Don't you see that Marcus dislike you? How can you be so shameless!"
"How... Katherine, how dare you talk to me like that!"
