The two ended up going to a secluded security corridor in the building together.
Chad and Garrett's assistants guarded the passageway.
Garrett leaned leisurely on the passage railing, "What are you going to say?"
Melvin's dark eyes were fixed on him. His face was cold.
"If your sister and Lyra are incompatible in the future, who will you choose?"
Garrett pondered, "No, because Irene already knew who Lyra is. As long as Irene still cares about Keith, she won't fight with Lyra again."
"Are you sure?"
Melvin sneered: "According to my understanding, Keith and Irene's marriage are engaged for two years. They have not yet received a certificate, because Keith has not agreed. Some time ago Keith asked to withdraw from the marriage but your father dissuaded this."
"So what?" Garrett was inexplicably confused.
"You know Lyra's character. Irene has harmed her, and the means is very sinister. She can never get along with Irene in this life. Irene is not a person who can take the loss. So between sister and Lyra, you can only want one."
Garrett was a little annoyed.
"What kind of question is that? I can't have both? I'll talk to her about the problem between them."
Melvin listened and laughed, "You don't even like Lyra that much. You're just mesmerizing yourself. Your sister will eventually marry someone else. It's amazing that you'll hesitate on something like this. You don't deserve Lyra at all."
"Heh, you're the one who doesn't deserve her. From the day you signed the agreement with her, you're destined to never remarry her."
Melvin smiled indifferently, "If I can't, just let it be. At least I can protect her in another way. Before she doesn't want me at all, I have to choose a man for her who really loves her and cares for her. But this person is definitely not you."
Garrett's expression eased when he heard this, "The person you are talking about is me! I'm perfect for her in every way. I've had a crush on her for years, and I don't mind that she'll have a second marriage. So how am I not good enough for her? How many men can do what I do?"
Melvin wrinkled his brow and looked at him for several times.
He can actually say something like second marriage ...
He simply cared about it in his heart. He forced himself to love Lyra, telling himself that he must take Lyra down.
Seeing that Melvin was silent, Garrett heartily announced a good news to him.
"You don't know it yet. She has promised to have dinner with me alone just three days later. I will give her a grand surprise that day. She will definitely agree to my proposal, and you, never have a chance!"
Garrett had a rare provocative smile.
Melvin's rage grew and he grabbed him by the lapels, warning him in a low voice.
"You've been pretending for a long time. I'm afraid you've been friends with her with an aim from the beginning, right? You stay away from her in the future!"
Garrett was unimpressed and shook off his hand, "You want to stop me?"
It was true that Keith's engagement to Irene did not always go through to the end.
But the Lloyd family and Frazier family's marriage was the trend, not to mention that he really liked Lyra. Marriage was to kill two birds with one stone.
But Garrett will not tell Melvin about that.
The two men warned each other and fought back and forth for several more times before they were finally pulled away by each of their assistants to end the smokeless war.
After Garrett left, Melvin took Fred back to the office.
Thinking about Garrett's comment about three days later, he became furious and pounded his fist hard on the table.
The "bang" startled Chad.
"Boss, what are you going to do on Mr. Frazier's side ...?"
Melvin was angry at the mention of the name, "In three days, find a way to get him leave, as far away as possible. Don't bother me in Frayton."
"Ah this!"
Chad felt a little bit awkward, "Behind him is the Frazier family, Boss I ..."
