She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 332

In the evening, Melanie left Ms. Crestfall's law firm.

“Sorry I’m late.”

Inside the revolving restaurant on the 88th floor of the Apex Tower, Melanie arrived at the designated table to find Bryant and Elina already seated.

“Have I kept you waiting long?”

“Not at all. You’re only five minutes late,” Bryant said, shaking his head repeatedly.

“But Daddy got here more than half an hour early,” Elina chimed in with her clear voice.

Bryant immediately shushed Elina, then looked at Melanie with an embarrassed smile.

“Here, let’s order first.”

Bryant proactively handed the menu to Melanie.

“I’m not a picky eater, anything is fine. You should ask Elina what she wants.”

“I can’t do that. Today, Elina and I are celebrating you and congratulating you on the huge success of your project. We have to order your favorite dishes.”

Seeing Bryant’s insistence, Melanie had no choice but to order a few dishes that children could also enjoy.

As she put down the menu and looked up, a vibrant bouquet of pink roses came into view.

Melanie was taken aback as Bryant peeked out from behind the flowers.

“These are for you.”

With a gentle smile, Bryant presented the bouquet to Melanie.

“Please don’t refuse. This is just a small token… uh… a token of friendship.”

The more Bryant emphasized it, the more he exposed his not-so-subtle feelings for Melanie. But since he himself had framed it as a gesture of friendship, Melanie found it difficult to refuse.

“Ms. Melanie, please accept them! Daddy spent a long time picking them out,” Elina said, blinking her big, watery eyes at Melanie. Her gaze seemed to say, *If you refuse, Daddy will be so sad.*

Melanie couldn’t help but give a wry smile as she accepted the flowers.

“It’s nothing,” Melanie said, shaking her head.

Just then, the dishes began to arrive, and the three of them started to eat.

During the meal, Bryant mentioned that he would fight to get custody of Elina back. Melanie expressed her support.

Although Caroline was Elina’s mother, her mental state was too unstable. Living with her wouldn't be good for Elina's development.

“But… a little girl needs a mother to look after her…”

Bryant said this very quietly, watching Melanie’s face for a reaction.

But…

Melanie didn’t seem to have heard him at all.

Disappointed, Bryant let out a quiet sigh.
