The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 543

Tom looked at her indifferently and said, "My mission has been completed. Of course, I'll go home."

Melissa said quickly, "You're responsible for protecting my safety. I'm not out of danger yet. You can't abandon me."

Thorn, Marlin and the others on the side saw Melissa's anxious look, which was completely different from their understanding of Melissa's character. They all had ambiguous expressions on their faces, thinking that there must be something between Tom and Melissa.

Tom said directly, "There will be agents to protect you next."

When Melissa saw that Tom was about to leave, she became even more flustered. She had never felt this kind of emotion before. It was not that she was timid, but that in a foreign country, the bodyguards around her were completely annihilated, and even Horton, who she had high hopes for, had lost fighting capacity. Because of Tom's performance just now, she had a strong feeling of dependence on Tom. After she heard that Tom was leaving, she was in a panic.

After all, she was just a vulnerable woman, and she still needed someone to take care of her.

"No!" Melissa shook her head hard, grabbed Tom's hand, and said, "I don't want other agents to protect me. I just want you to protect me!"

What she said was so ambiguous that even Tom frowned.

Marlin said meaningfully from the side, "Tom, since Miss Melissa said so, why don't you take care of Miss Melissa's safety? You can also comfort her."

After he finished speaking, Marlin even squeezed his eyes at Tom. The expression on his face was very ambiguous. Thorn also said, "Yes, Tom, Melissa only trusts you. Why don't you take care of Miss Melissa's safety? By the way, it can promote the relationship between our H Country and the European Consortium."

As a man, how could Tom not understand what the two of them said? They just wanted him to take advantage of the opportunity to be with Melissa, and it was best to trick Melissa into investing in H Country.

Tom despised their dirty thoughts. He was Tom, a powerful man in the fourth stage of the Innate Realm. How could he do such a dirty thing?

He refused without thinking. "I'm afraid I'm not the right person. My wife is still waiting for me at home."

Then he shook off Melissa and turned to leave. Melissa panicked again. In a hurry, she blurted out, "Hey, if you are willing to protect me, I promise to invest in H Country, not less than 300 billion!"

When she said this, the whole audience was immediately stunned. Three hundred billion! If Melissa invested in building a factory in H Country, how much investment would that bring to the local area and how many jobs would that provide for the local people?

For a moment, Thorn and a few of the higher-ups opened their eyes wide and breathed much faster.

Tom was also a little surprised. Through this period of time, he knew that Melissa was not that kind of impulsive woman. She was quite rational. How could she invest 300 billion dollars to build a factory just for him?

Soon, Tom saw clearly from Melissa's eyes that she was fooling him. In fact, during this period of investigation, Melissa had already seen the value of H Country. She was sure that as long as she invested in H Country, she would definitely make a lot of money. Therefore, even if Tom didn't protect her, she would still choose to invest.

Melissa's acting skills were very good. Even a master like Marlin had been deceived by her, but she still could not deceive Tom.

Thorn said immediately, "Tom, since Miss Melissa has already said this, you should promise her. Once Miss Melissa agrees to invest and build a factory in H Country, this is a great achievement!"

Other higher-ups also persuaded Tom one after another, afraid that Tom would refuse.

When Melissa saw this, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a smug smile. "Man of H Country, even if you are a 4s level superpower, you still have to be obediently used by me."
