The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2118

Sean only slept with Melissa because she was sent to his bed when he was drugged.

After the deed, Sean paid off Melissa's debt and found a job for her. There was nothing more between them.

However, to Sean's subordinates and especially Lex, they had long thought that Sean must have liked Melissa since he slept with her.

They thought that Yvette, who liked to hook up with men before she was married, still did not reel it in after marriage.

To them, Yvette was just another prostitute with a better background.

Yvette was nothing compared to a pure college student like Melissa.

Thus, Lex looked at Yvette lewdly, but he would not contaminate Melissa.

When Lex heard what Sean said, he was obviously shocked and looked at Sean in a panic.

"Boss, you know that’s not what I meant. How could you give Melissa to me?"

Melissa stood beside him. Her face was pale, and she bit down on her lips so hard that they were about to bleed.

She remained silent

Sean ignored Lex and looked straight at Melissa.

"What do you think?"

Although it was a question, Sean did not actually mean to ask for her opinion.

Melissa also knew that this was not up for discussion.

She did not know how to answer, so she just kept her head down in silence.

Tate, who was standing on the side, saw that the situation was not right and kicked the skinny Lex behind the knee.

With a thud, the thin man knelt down.

Tate said with a smile, "This stupid donkey must've had too much free time recently that he has time to think about nonsense. He only has eyes for women. Boss, why don't you let Lex deliver the goods this time?"

Lex looked up at Tate in surprise.

"Tate, you..."

Tate glared at Lex fiercely. Lex knelt there for a while and did not know what to say.

He was also observing Lean's expression.

Sean glanced at Lex coldly. There was no trace of warmth in his voice as he said, " The old master hasn't made a move yet, so I'll let you know who will deliver the goods when the time comes."

Tate thought about it and continued this topic.

"Boss, the old master trusts you more now, but he still refuses to take you to see his higher-ups. Is it because he's afraid that you'll steal his credit? Or does he not trust you enough?"

Lex was spirited when he heard this and was about to speak, but Sean gave him a look.

Everyone immediately understood that look.

Melissa stood there and pursed her lips.

I'm going to cook first."

She returned to the kitchen, and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Sean looked at Lex and said in a cold tone," If you keep running your mouth, I won't give you another chance and leave you to the old master. He will naturally have his way of dealing with you."

Lex smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Boss, I know my mistake..."

Sean withdrew his gaze and raised his chin. Lex hurriedly stood up.

Only then did Sean answer Tate's question slowly.

"Whether he's doubtful of me or afraid that I’ll steal his credit, what I want to know most is the person behind the old master."

As long as he knew who was backing the old master, he could overthrow the old master and take his position.
