Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 174

"Leave it to me. You can sleep now. Otherwise, you will go to work with black rims on your face tomorrow."

Even though Kent mocked her, Melinda didn't know why she felt reassured. Maybe it was because she trusted him.

"Sorry to bother you again," Melinda said after hesitating. She knew that Kent didn't like to hear this, but she couldn't help but say that.

Melinda was afraid of making trouble for others, but she couldn't handle everything well, which made her upset.

Hearing her polite tone, Kent lost his temper immediately. "If you think it's bothering, just wait for the matter to be solved and invite me to dinner. Please spare your spare time and invite me to express your boundless gratitude."

Even though he was angry, he just jeered at her. Perhaps it was because of his tone that could make Melinda feel relaxed.

He brought up the topic about last time when he changed the topic. Since the editing department forbade them to go back home to work, it made them felt that a capitalist exploited the employees.

It was a normal thing to work overtime until eight or nine o'clock. In the past, when they went home, they would never feel that the workload was this heavy. Later, someone in the department sometimes measured the quantity of tasks. Since the plan came out, the tasks given by the superiors was 1.5 times than before.

With the faint salary of the past and more work, everyone would complain incessantly. Victor spoke for the superiors that in fact, the normal work should be 1.25 times. He said that they always had so much free time in the past.

As a result, the dinner date made by Melinda and Kent was delayed for almost a month.

"I will treat you the dinner this time even if I will get my salary deducted," Hearing that, Kent burst into laughter and said, "Don't do that! If my wife knows that, she will scold me! You have only a little salary, but I still wanted to have the meal and deduct your salary. How could you be so unreasonable, Kent?"

Kent imitated his wife's tone. Hearing that, Melinda couldn't help laughing, and her intense mood immediately eased a lot, She knew that Kent was helping her to relax. She couldn't help saying thanks to him in her heart.

Kent was a talkative man. He kept chatting with Melinda. Then he raised his head and looked at the clock in the study. He found that the minute hand had reached number 6, so he urged her, "Well, you should have confidence in the security of your own community. Go to bed early."

"Okay." The sleepiness swept over her again, leaving her a night light. Soon Melinda fell asleep.

It was not a good start for Emily to take revenge on Melinda. She didn't expect that there was someone protecting her.

"One person is not enough, how about a group? Melinda, you can't be so lucky every time,"

Emily talked to herself. She had been in the entertainment industry for so many years. She only knew a few upper class, but she knew a lot of rogues, especially those who would do anything once she gave money to them.

All these people had an agent to be contacted. Emily gave the agency fee to the group and the agency introduced her a group of people, who were tall and strong with fierce muscles. Children could be scared to cry when they walked out.

There were five people in total, and they were fierce. Even the employer, Emily, was a little scared by their imposing manner, but she was satisfied with it.

"Her car is confined tomorrow. She'll definitely take this road. All you have to do is to wait here. You can do whatever you want to her. We can discuss the price."

Emily found a photo of Melinda from nowhere. It was taken by the seaside and she smiled against the waves, like a little fairy. Two of the five of them had their eyes wide open.

"Since you are a beauty, I will give you a 20% discount." The leader of these men seemed to be easy-going, but in fact, he was somewhat greedy. In the eyes of these people, Melinda was a stunner.

Emily was satisfied with the result but she was a little unhappy. She thought that Melinda was really a slut. How seductive she was.

A group of people agreed on the price. Just then, Emily's doorbell rang. Her eyes darkened. She pushed the five people into a guest room at the first time.

"I'm sorry, you have to stay here for a while." She was good at speaking and didn't dare to say anything too harsh. The group of people didn't mind at all, knowing that she was a public figure and wanted to have a good image.

"Who is it?" Emily shouted at the door. Several people at the door looked at each other and one of them shouted, "Police."

Emily opened the door. As expected, several policemen were standing at the door with long faces. Emily leaned against the door frame, showing no attitude to step way.

"Oh, you are policemen. What are you doing here? Are you here to ask for water?"

It was Emily's arrogant attitude that made the police's face darken.

Emily said with sarcasm.

"You are suspected of threatening someone. Please explain it after you get to the police."

At last, the calmer senior police officer said. His eyes were as sharp as eagle's. it seemed that he could see a person's nature.
