His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 149: Join Hands to Deal with Her 

Melody was puzzled.She looked at Seth with scrutiny in her eyes.

The man's handsome face, which was as refined as a sculpture, had a hint of smile on it. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Subconsciously, the corners of his mouth curved upward.

"I heard that you will participate in the school anniversary event?" Melody simply responded, "Yes."

"Can I go and watch?" Seth looked at her seriously.

This kind of question was probably something that Seth rarely tried in his life.

He would usually do as he pleased or directly order others.

Only Melody received this kind of treatment from him.

Melody didn't reject him.

Anyway, it was a public performance.

Everyone who was in the audience could watch it.

Naturally, if Seth was in the audience, he could watch it too.

"It's still early.I'll tell you when we enter the finals!" It was just the preliminaries, and it was too chaotic.

Melody felt that Seth did not have to come, so she wanted him to wait until she entered the finals before letting him watch.

Seth stared at her with a charming smile.

His eyes were bright and deep.

Seeing his reaction, Melody took half a step forward.She locked her gaze with him, her eyes raised.

In a light and long tone, she said, "What? You don't believe that I can make it to the finals?"

"I know you'll get there!"

The man's voice sounded, seemingly certain of his words without a single trace of doubt.

Melody thought that it was interesting and decided to act a bit playfully.She teased.

"You trust me that much?"

The man did not hesitate at all.

"Yes!"

It was just a school celebration.

The Harrison Corporation was originally one of the honorary directors of the school, and they were also the biggest and most influential.

As long as Seth wanted it, he could directly have the principal send Melody's team directly to the finals.

But he did not have to worry about anything at all.

Everything was up to Melody's wishes.

"Reagan, look over there! Is that the head of the Harrison family?"

Christine's index finger was pointing towards a certain direction excitedly as she told Reagan about it.

Hearing Christine's description, Reagan knew that she was talking about Seth.Her eyes instantly lit up, and she looked in the direction Christine pointed.She did not expect that it was really Seth! Reagan's

lethargic mood instantly faded, and she turned energetic.Her body radiated enthusiasm.

His entire person seemed to have been illuminated by the sun.

Who could have expected that Seth would show up in their school gates? As if she had seen something, Christine frowned and said, "Reagan, who do you think is the girl standing in front of Seth.I can only see her back, but she somewhat feels familiar."

Reagan also took a closer look and felt like her eyes were sprayed by acid.

Of course, it was familiar.

Wasn't that Melody? Others might not easily identify Melody, but she, Reagan, could.

How could it be hard for Reagan to recognize Melody? Aside from Melody, was there anyone else who had the same arrogant posture? Countless curses occupied Reagan's thoughts, ‘That vixen! She's trying to hook up with Seth again.

She’s so shameless!’ Reagan felt so angry that she felt like she could die from anger.

Seth glanced at the watch around his wrist and realized it was almost time for class.

He urged Melody.

"Get in.Don't forget to eat your breakfast."

Seth recalled that Melody's stomach must still be empty this morning.

Melody lowered her gaze and looked at the lunchbox.

It had a transparent lid so she could see the still warm, delicate breakfast inside.

Seeing how considerate the other party was, Melody nodded in affirmation.

"Understood.I’m going!"

After further confirming it with words, she gracefully turned around without any hesitation.

Seth stood motionless as he watched Melody leave for her class.

His eyes, which had always been cold and emotionless, showed a rare warmth and tenderness as he watched her back.

The moment Melody turned around, Christine instantly identified who she was.

She was so shocked that her jaw dropped.

"Oh my god, how could it be Melody, that country bumpkin?"

Hearing the name "Melody," Reagan automatically felt extremely agitated as she stomped her feet to vent her anger.

"Can you not mention that name in front of me?"

Christine did not dare to talk anymore after seeing Reagan's outburst.

Anyone close enough to Reagan knew that she had once said that only a man like Seth was worthy of her.

Until now, Reagan had not made her move yet, and then she discovered that Melody and Seth were flirting in front of them.

It was no wonder that Reagan was so angry and lost her temper to the point that she even stomped her feet out of rage.

Christine could more or less guess the thoughts inside Reagan's head, so to win her favor, Christine immediately comforted Reagan with words she wanted to hear.

"Reagan, don't worry.Melody is a jinx.Who knew what kind of tricks she used to hook up with people? Anyway, whatever she has now won't last long.How high is the status of the Harrison family? How could they let a lowlife like Melody marry into their family?"

The more Christine belittled Melody, the better Reagan felt.

Seeing Reagan's mood getting better, Christine continued.

"Isn't Melody in the spotlight because of the school anniversary? Reagan, if we join hands, she won't even be able to get past the auditions!"

Hearing Christine's suggestion, Reagan's eyes revealed a trace of viciousness.

She replied with a vigorous nod.

The rules of the audition were very simple.The results would depend on the school union's and the audience's votes.The student union organized 300 students to be part of the live audience.The judging panel consisted of the student heads of several departments from the student union.

Both Reagan and Christine were ministers from the school union.

One of them was the minister of the publicity department, while the other was the minister of the outreach department.

As long as the two of them joined forces and united with the other student heads, Melody’s group should just simply forget about passing the auditions.

Melody arrived at the class carrying a lunchbox.

Luke was about to hand the breakfast he especially made for Melody when he saw the lunchbox in her hand.

The Harrison family's logo was also plastered on it.

Lance had arrived earlier than his boss, so the one who gave Melody the breakfast could not be him.

In the Harrison family, other than Lance, it could only be that sly old fox.

Luke was so full of dissatisfaction that he wanted to replace the lunch box in Melody’s hands with the one he had prepared.

"Boss, this just came out of the oven.Don't you prefer hot food? Do you want to eat this instead?"

As he spoke, Melody took off the lid of the lunch box and took the food out of the container.

Hearing Luke's words, she replied without thinking, "It's okay.This lunchbox can be heated."

In just a single reply, Luke’s careful suggestion was rejected.

His hope was crushed.

Luke felt so distressed that his heart felt as if it had been physically injured.

Lance, who was watching the scene from the side, almost could not stop himself from laughing.

At a glance, he recognized that the lunchbox was from his family.

Other than his uncle, no one else would send breakfast to Melody.

Although he also thought that his uncle's attacks were too despicable and his methods were cunning, when Lance saw Luke's expression that looked like he was constipated, he was overjoyed.

He had fought with Luke so many times, but not once did he have the upper hand.

Now that someone from the Harrison family had the upper hand, and considering that he was also surnamed Harrison, then it meant that he somewhat had the upper hand, right? He should be happy, shouldn't he? Seeing that Melody had already started eating, Luke knew that he could not do anything about it anymore.

He felt helpless.

He could only act like a caring, sweet little subordinate as he obediently reported to the Boss.

"Boss, the school announced that afternoon classes are canceled and will be used for the audition instead.Most of the participants have already applied for leave on their classes this morning to practice for the audition later.Should we also apply for leave to practice?"

Melody supervised them individually, and they also practiced individually.

As a result, they had never officially rehearsed together.

"No need! Let's talk about it in the afternoon!"

"Okay, Boss!"

Luke cheerfully responded.

He had no choice but to like his Boss’ domineering, confident, and arrogant attitude.

After all, who told his Boss to be so capable that she could back up any words that she said?
