Kiss me tender novel Chapter 73

In a tea room with smoke curling, a few young girls dressed in red cheongsam were kneeling at the table to make tea and making tea. Their white hands looked elegant in posture. They made tea according to their action standard. They were as elegant and professional as the official ladies from ancient times.

Fannie was sitting on a wooden chair to take a rest. Someone was massaging her legs. Every day when she felt tired, she would like to come to this place to have a rest. She liked the Chinese style, especially tea. She used to drink coffee to refresh herself when she was young, but now she only liked tea when she was a little older. Therefore, she was quite familiar with the Tin Teahouse.

She was in her fifties, but her skin was as smooth like a lady in her early forties. She had always been a coquettish girl in her youth, but now she was well preserved with appropriately exquisite make-up and high-end clothes. So she looked like a queen, completely different from her previous coquettish style that was looked down upon by others.

No one in the entertainment circle dared to defy her. Her husband, Gilbert, was ninety years old and paralyzed with old age. He could only lie on the bed, waiting for his death. He could do nothing with anything and the business of the Ling family had fallen into her hands completely. The ex-wives and other children of Gilbert, who were not able to deal with her, could be controlled by her, as if she could easily deal with an ant.

After hearing Candy's report, Fannie raised her hand gracefully. The big diamond and emerald bracelet on her hand glittered in the light, which immediately attracted Candy's attention. Candy stopped talking and just looked at Fannie, who closed her eyes meditatively.

Fannie waved her hand and asked the waiter to leave. Then she sat up slowly and said, "I got it. You mean that the woman began to break up with Colin, right?"

Candy nodded and said, "Yes. That woman ran out after Mr. Colin scolded her that night. She looked very sad and Mr. Colin was very angry, so he didn't chase her out. Therefore, I guess they will not have any relationship in the future, right?"

Fannie took the small tea cup the waitress served, smelt the fragrant taste of the tea, and then slowly drank the tea, saying, "Well done."

Hearing that, Candy smiled fawningly and said, "It's all because of you. You are so brilliant. First, you gave words to Melissa's parents to irritate them. Then, you parted Colin and Melissa by taking advantage of Melissa's parents. Finally, you provoked Mr. Colin with the belongings of Avril and Mr. Colin said harsh words to Melissa. So, both of them finally hated each other." "From now on, they will be strangers."

Fannie put down the tea cup gracefully and sneered, "You are too naive. If you let it go, Colin won't be my son!"

"What do you mean, madam?" Candy said with puzzlement.

Then, Fannie took the second cup of tea to taste slowly. She said, "Since you have said that Mr. Colin's attitude towards that woman is different and that woman also was kept staying with Colin for five years as well as even Colin brought her home. Apparently, that woman has a place in Colin's heart" "According to Colin's character, can he easily give up her?"

"Madam, do you mean that……" Mr. Colin has fallen in love with that woman. What can we do? "It's not easy for him to give up!" Candy was a little scared.

Slowly, Fannie raised her head and glanced at Candy with her eyes glistening with coldness. She said slowly, "That depends on that woman. It's okay if she is not greedy, but if this time she just chooses to be separated from Colin, that's all." If she acts like Avril and she continued to have an affair with Colin, Then……. "Then……" Fannie lowered her head and adjusted the super big diamond ring on her middle finger. She said slowly, "I don't mind to deal with her in the same way as I dealt with Avril in the past. If she dare to covet Colin, I will let her disappear in the world inexplicably!" She raised her hand gracefully to show her diamond ring in the sunlight and then smiled with satisfaction.

But Candy's face turned pale with fright. How terrible madam dealt with Avril and the way she killed Avril was bad! It was too cruel! Candy couldn't help shivering.

Melissa slept for a long time, so that she thought she would never wake up. She had many nightmares, she dreamed that everyone in the world abandoned her, and her parents despised her as well. They didn't even raise their hands to help her when they saw her fall into hell. They just stood on top of her, coldly watching her fall into the hell.

Then Colin was the demon who tried to drag her to the place she didn't want to go. No matter how hard she struggled and roared, he dragged her into the sea of fire, turning her into ashes.

She screamed and shouted at her parents, asking them not to leave her or telling Colin not to be with her again. She pleaded for mercy and finally when she was so helpless, she grabbed a hand, which was so strong, holding her tightly. There was a man yelling, "Melissa……" "Melissa……"

She was so weak that she was on the verge of having a nervous breakdown last night. If Eric hadn't shown up, perhaps she had died in Dream Garden and even nobody knew it. However, that time she would rather die than be abandoned by others so that she felt so sad.

Eric reached out to stroke Melissa's forehead and then let out a sigh of relief. His uneasiness was finally relieved. He smiled and said, "The fever has been brought down. When I sent you to the hospital yesterday, you had a high fever and the wound on your head has been inflamed. The doctor said that it was very dangerous. It would be troublesome if you couldn't wake up this morning. Fortunately, you finally wake up. The fever was gone. You must have passed the crisis."

Noticing that there were tears in Melissa's eyes, Eric asked with concern, "Yesterday……" What happened to you last night? Why were you in such a mess? When I found you yesterday, I saw you leaning in an empty corner, unconscious, embarrassing, with no shoes and your feet are bleeding. What's wrong with you? Why did they come to the suburb? "What happened?"

His words saddened Melissa again. Tears came down from her eyes and dropped on the pillow. She couldn't help but sob and she was really sad.

Eric grabbed her hand tightly and asked coldly with a frown, "Is it related to Colin? Or your parents……" You kept calling their names when you had nightmares last night. What did they do to you? "And especially Colin? What did he do to you?"

Speaking of Colin, Eric was still angry. That night in a five-star hotel, he had a quarrel with Colin. He never found that there was such a bad man in the world. And that man was so mean to a woman. It seemed that he had tortured Melissa for many years. Otherwise, how could she become like this as she was such a good star and an innocent woman? But he didn't expect that Melissa and Colin had a hidden relationship. They were from two different worlds. Melissa was an innocent woman. Why would Melissa be with Colin later?

Melissa cried for a while and she held back her tears with saying, "It's all over now. I won't get involved in Colin from now on." "And I don't want to talk about him either."

Seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, Eric thought that she might have been hurt by those things. Although he was very worried, it was not appropriate to reveal her wound since she didn't want to. So he lowered his head and stopped asking. After a while, he asked with concern, "What are you going to do in the future?"

Melissa stared blankly at the ceiling, thought for a while, and then gritted her teeth and said, "I want to show them that I'm successful. Although I've left the entertainment circle for a long time, it doesn't mean that I'll be down in the world for the rest of my life." "I will stand from where I stepped down. I don't want to be bullied by those who bully me one more time! I, known as Melissa, want to fight against them!"
