Reborn with Nothing but My Farm and Vengeance in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 325

Chapter 325: Chapter 325: A Dead End

Melody Summers instinctively shook her head and said, "Don’t say that. It’s not your fault."

Everything today had been too chaotic. It started with Ivan Warren getting lecherous with Lucy White, and then a whole mess of other things got dragged into it.

Even though that Leopold Lowell guy was a hotel security guard, judging by his expression, he clearly knew Supervisor Walsh. You couldn’t blame the owner, Carter Jennings, for that.

Hearing this, Carter Jennings chuckled. He looked at Melody Summers with his charming, almond-shaped eyes and asked softly, "Don’t you remember me, Miss Summers? We’ve met before."

Melody Summers froze for a moment. She really didn’t remember.

’Why does everyone recognize me? It makes me seem like I’m face-blind.’

Seeing Melody Summers’s blank expression, Carter Jennings smiled faintly and reminded her, "My name is Carter Jennings. We met at Zane Simmons’s party last summer during that heatwave. You got into an argument with the youngest son of the Lancaster family. He was about to get physical, and I stepped in to stop him."

Melody Summers frowned, trying to recall, but found that she still had no memory of it.

So much had happened in the past two years. Forget Carter Jennings, she could barely even remember Silas Lancaster anymore.

Seeing this, Carter Jennings put on a hurt expression. He sighed and said forlornly, "I can’t believe Miss Summers has no impression of me at all. I, on the other hand, have remembered you all this time."

Hearing him say that made Melody Summers feel a little embarrassed.

After all, Carter Jennings had been kind enough to help her back then, so when he suggested they sit down for a drink, Melody Summers didn’t have the heart to refuse.

Melody Summers turned to Lucy White, who had been standing silently to the side, and asked, "What about you? Do you want to join me?"

When Lucy White saw Melody Summers looking at her, she was a bit overwhelmed by the attention.

For some reason, she felt her cheeks starting to burn again.

Meeting Melody Summers’s questioning gaze, Lucy White quickly stammered, "O-Okay."

Ronan Rhodes’s gaze flickered between Carter Jennings and Melody Summers. Carter’s interest was all too obvious, and alarm bells immediately went off in Ronan’s mind.

He then ignored Carter Jennings’s objections and tagged along anyway.

...

The four of them had just sat down by a window when Zane Simmons walked over.

Seeing the four of them sitting together, Zane Simmons said in surprise, "Well now, how did the four of you end up together?"

When Lucy White saw Zane Simmons arrive, she instinctively remembered the "plan" that Joanne White and the others were going to carry out tonight.

Her mind was suddenly in turmoil, her feelings a tangled mess. She could only lower her head, not daring to meet Zane Simmons’s gaze.

Carter Jennings handed Zane Simmons a glass of wine and asked, "Is your mother feeling better?"

Zane Simmons nodded. "Much better. She just needs some bed rest. I saw she’d fallen asleep, so I came out to get some air."

A little while ago, Paige Walsh had accidentally eaten something that triggered an allergic reaction. She broke out in a rash, swelled up, and had difficulty breathing, so she was rushed to The Nimbus Hotel’s medical room for treatment.

Fortunately, she hadn’t consumed a large amount, and after treatment, she was out of danger.

Hearing this, Carter Jennings said with a guilty expression, "I’m truly sorry. Our guests’ meals are all prepared to avoid items on their allergy lists. I don’t know why this happened, but I’ve already arranged for an investigation. I’ll visit your mother tomorrow to apologize to her in person."

Zane Simmons waved his hand dismissively. "No need. Don’t worry about it. My mom just got back from the research institute; she doesn’t even remember what she might have touched outside earlier. It might not be the hotel’s fault."
