She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 326

And so, Melanie returned to the banquet.

This time, however, she was accompanied by a fawning Leonard.

Leonard trailed her like a lapdog; anyone who didn't know better would have thought he was Melanie's assistant or servant.

Dominic and Evelyn had also returned.

They just went back to their original seats.

Leonard had only invited Melanie back, seating her at the VIP table, and had completely ignored Dominic and Evelyn.

The security guards had received no further instructions and didn't know what to do with Dominic and Evelyn, so they had no choice but to let the two return to their seats.

"Dominic, the Crowell Group and Quanterra Biolabs are our Hale Group's biggest competitors. Especially the Crowell Group—they dominate the cancer therapeutic market right now. Once our new drug is launched, we'll be in direct conflict with them..."

"But look at Melanie! As the person in charge of the new drug project, not only is she not keeping her distance, she's flirting with that Leonard. Now she's abandoned us to run off with him!"

Evelyn's voice grew louder and her expression more agitated as she spoke.

In the past, whenever she tried to provoke Dominic like this, she could always see his disgust and contempt for Melanie in his eyes.

Even if Dominic had started to develop feelings for Melanie now, there was no way he would accept her publicly humiliating him like this.

However…

Evelyn realized that this time, Dominic's reaction was completely different.

Although he was listening to her, he didn't even glance her way. His eyes were fixed on the VIP table, seemingly filled with admiration.

"Melanie is different from us... We crashed this event with a borrowed invitation, but Melanie... she's the one truly representing the Hale Group at this symposium..."

"Now, she's been invited to sit at the VIP table. This proves she's capable and is making the Hale Group look good."

As Dominic spoke, the admiration in his eyes swelled.

Evelyn couldn't help but roll her eyes, so angry she dug her fingernails into her palms until they hurt.
