Chapter 153
Melanie stayed in her room until it was nighttime before leaving. She had no appetite, so she had a few bites of her food before returning to her room.
Dylan never looked for her after that. Moreover, Melanie could not be bothered about her.
Only after she bathed did she notice that Joshua, who had never contacted her, had texted her.
He asked when Melanie was going to return to Jepton.
Melanie replied: [Why?]
[My birthday is this weekend, and I want to invite you to my party.]
Joshua replied to her within seconds.
Melanie was not close to him. She had just recently interacted with him back in LeapCo during the meeting.
Feeling blue, Melanie was not in the mood to go. She wanted to reject the invite.
Just as she was about to text Joshua, he sent her another message.
[I’m just asking as we’re kind of friends. It’ll be fun. Moreover, Stephen said you’re interested in art exhibitions. I happen to have a few quality paintings. So, I thought of inviting you to appreciate them.]
Since Joshua had said so, Melanie could naturally not reject him. She could only agree to attend.
That night was a sleepless one for Melanie. Even though she had tried hard to fall asleep, her head
still hurt, and her mind was still in a mess.
The following day, Melanie called Xander on time. Xander was startled. “What’s wrong?”
Melanie rubbed her temples and said, “Don’t we have to organize the documents today? What’s your address? I’ll meet you guys there.”
Xander was surprised by her suggestion, and his voice was a little hoarse. “You can take a day off today.”
Melanie knew he was doing this out of consideration because of what she had experienced yesterday.
However, she said, “It’s okay. I’ll still do what I’ve promised you.”
Xander sent her the location without hesitating.
When Melanie arrived, it was already nine in the morning.
Oliver met her in the elevator with a bag of food for breakfast. He even greeted Melanie.
