But she did know how much Bryant had initially despised Melanie.
“Evelyn…” Dominic’s face was dark as he asked gravely, “You said Melanie slept with Bryant. Do you have any proof?”
“No,” Evelyn answered unequivocally.
Dominic frowned, and Evelyn continued, “You know how much he hated Melanie. At the masquerade ball, he and Melanie were at each other’s throats. But what did Melanie do?”
Dominic remained silent.
“She danced with him.”
Dominic was still silent.
“This project originally had nothing to do with her, yet she managed to become the project lead for the ambassador selection. If it wasn't by sleeping her way to the top, how else could she have done it? What else could make a man who hated her suddenly start taking orders from her?”
“Alright, that’s enough. Stop talking. Melanie isn’t that kind of person…”
Before Dominic could finish, he heard Evelyn’s cold laugh.
“Keep telling yourself that!”
With that, she grabbed Lila’s hand and walked out without looking back. Lila kept turning around, crying out “Daddy,” only to be scolded into more tears by Evelyn.
The room felt cold and empty after they left. Dominic sat alone in the private room, his mind in turmoil.
Evelyn’s words weren’t entirely without reason.
But…
Had Melanie really cheated on him?
Slept with Bryant just to gain control over the brand ambassador selection and replace Lila?
No matter how he thought about it, Dominic felt Melanie wouldn't go that far.
Besides, Melanie loved him.
After much thought, Dominic couldn’t resist and gave Melanie a call.
But before it could connect, he hung up and sent a text message instead.
