Love of Tomorrow (Vania Greyson) novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Arrogance

Melanie noticed the mockery, and her anger flared at once. She dropped her act and pointed at the receptionist, saying, “Don’t give me that attitude! You’re just a receptionist! Watch your tongue, or I’ll make sure you’re fired! I’ll make sure of that. I’m telling you to go and tell Master Mia that I must see her today.”

The receptionist was still smiling, unfazed by the insulting attitude earlier. She said, “Please understand our situation, Miss Melanie. We only send Master Mia messages once every day so she would not be disturbed. She has records of the messages we sent her. If she wants to see you, she will tell us. You may wait with us if you wish to, but you can go home as well. We’ll call once Master Mia wishes to see you.”

“What did you say?” Angered, Melanie took out a card from her limited-edition handbag and hurled it onto the counter. She said, her attitude arrogant, “There’s five million in there. You can have half of it, and Master Mia can have the rest. Tell her that Melanie Greyson wants to see her. I’ll give her another five million once I see her.”

Money could solve anything and everything, or at least that’s what Melanie thought. She was giving the receptionist a smug look as if she was sure that Mia would see her after this.

The receptionist was still wearing a professional smile on her face, though she was mocking Melanie in silence. It’s only been two days and you already can’t take it? The receptionist picked up the card, and Melanie watched as she did so. She held it in her hand, pretending to be scared that she might be seen. She said, “Give me a minute, Miss Greyson.” She tucked the card away and went into the office to make a call. “Boss? It’s me, Melody.”

The person she called was Vania, and Fortune Tower was one of the office buildings under Galaxy Corporation. Melody had gotten the authorization to let Melanie into the building and meet Mia, but her throwing money at them came as a surprise. She called Vania to tell her about what Melanie had said.
