I Became His Sweetheart

Chapter 308 Mrs. Morgan’s Revenge

The side door of Jeffrey's office opened, and the staff from the assistant department hastily escorted Isla out. as if they were afraid of being discovered by Melanie. Two assistants even purposely followed Isla, shielding her from Melanie’s sight...

Melanie sneered inwardly. A meeting? And Isla was attending, too?

She smirked when she glanced at the menu again. All the dishes she ordered were his favorites. Melanie’s lips curled with a touch of coldness.

With a flash in her eyes, she decisively picked up her phone and dialed the restaurant’s number. “Hello, has my order been started?”

“Madam, your order is ready for delivery. It will arrive in about ten minutes,” the waiter replied politely.

“Please include some extra condiment packets,” Melanie said nonchalantly.

“Sure. May | ask what flavor you prefer?”

“| love the spicy flavor. The insanely spicy one,” Melanie pronounced each word decisively.

“Alright. I'll add some extra chili oil for you,” the waiter responded, slightly puzzled. After all, the dishes the lady ordered were light. Why would she want it to be insanely spicy?

“Thank you,” she said coldly, and then put the phone aside. Fifteen minutes later, the food was delivered.

The meeting in Jeffrey’s office had also ended. Melanie looked at the packages of chili oil with satisfaction. Without hesitation, she opened them and poured all of it into the dishes in front of her.

After two more minutes, the main door of Jeffrey’s office opened. Several men walked out one by one. The last one to emerge was Jeffrey.

Jeffrey walked directly toward the guest room, his eyes focused on the woman waiting inside. “You're here?”

He was pleasantly surprised. She had never taken the initiative to come to him before. They had shared a tender moment last night, and it seemed she treated him differently now...

As soon as he heard she was coming, regardless of the fact that he was still dealing with some important matters, he lost his focus and just wanted to come out to see her.

“| brought you dinner.”

Melanie extended her delicate hand. She adjusted the lunchbox, her face adorned with a cute smile. Jeffrey, hiding his joy, approached her with concern. “It’s so late. You should go home and rest.”

“If you don’t eat, how can | sleep?”

Melanie was still smiling, and she went to open the lunchbox one by one. Jeffrey sat down to eat, but his gaze remained fixed on her focused face.

When William, who was standing behind Morgan, saw the food, his expression changed.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

The food looked spicy. The red color of the chili had completely covered the dishes... If he didn’t know better, he might think that Melanie was trying to poison Jeffrey!

Melanie remained calm, arranging the cutlery and gently saying, “All the dishes are your favorites. Eat while. it's hot.”

Only after a moment did Jeffrey lower his head to see the festive colors on the table. His lips twitched. He understood why her was both charming and eerie just now...

However, he pretended to be calm, smiled, and picked up the cutlery. Then, he had a bite of the dish. He swallowed it, his Adam's apple moving.

William trembled along with Jeffrey’s actions, as if he was the one eating the spicy food. He couldn't help but admire Jeffrey. The president was indeed a man of great fortitude, swallowing it just like that.

“How is it? Delicious, right?”

Melanie’s soft voice rang out beside him.

“I've eaten at this restaurant before. The food is delicious, so | specially bought them for you to taste.”

She deliberately imitated Isla’s signature sweet and charming tone.

William was worried for Jeffrey. Melanie had probably seen Isla. He wondered how Jeffrey would handle this situation. Unexpectedly, Jeffrey nodded decisively and said, “Yes, it’s delicious!”

After saying that, Jeffrey didn’t speak again. Instead, he started to eat voraciously in front of Melanie. He not only finished all the dishes, but also drank two sips of the soup...

William silently handed a bottle of water to Jeffrey from behind. Jeffrey glanced at it; he then placed it by his side, and instructed William to step back.

As William closed the door, he couldn’t help but glance at Jeffrey with admiration. “You've finished eating. My mission is complete, so I'll leave now,” Melanie said, picking up her small bag and preparing to leave. Jeffrey looked up. He stood up and grabbed her wrist. Their eyes met.

His lips were slightly red and swollen, and they looked shiny. He looked a bit funny, as if he was about to breathe fire when he spoke.

“Now that you've vented your anger, can we talk?” Jeffrey said.
