Chapter 321 Soft Hearted
The waiter served the dishes on the table, and left with the tray. The two women sat in the private
room.
Olivia served Lena some food and said with feigned casualness. “Did you hear?
Melanie wants to hold a perfume exhibition in Willowfort.”
“Is that so?”
Lena’s hair stood on end at the mention of Melanie.
Seeing the pure hatred in Lena’s eyes, Olivia feel reassured. She said with deliberate melancholy,
“Yes, she is. She embarrassed my father’s company and claimed his credit, and came up with a
perfume with the same
name. Now, she even wants to hold a perfume exhibition. She really doesn’t know when to stop! She’s
bent on
making my dad’s life a living hell…”
Olivia was on the verge of tears as she spoke, which made Lena frown. She reached out to hold
Olivia’s hand,
and said, “Melanie’s evil. She’s been that way since she was young. I know that best.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe thought of how Melanie plotted against them and humiliated them during that dinner with all the
bigwigs
of the industry made Lena grit her teeth in anger.
“She refuses to let up! My family has been in Willowfort for less than a month, and here she is too—”
Olivia tried to steer Lena’s thoughts. “I heard your second uncle has an exhibition organizing company.
Will
Melanie work with him this time?”
“My second uncle is obsessed with maintaining harmony within the family, so that might be possible.”
Lena’s eyes lit up. “Our family now lives with our second uncle. I’m working in his company, too. My
second uncle treats me very well. Olivia, don’t you worry. If Melanie is really intending to work with him,
I promise to put her in her place and show her who’s boss!”
“That’s great! I knew you’d have a way to deal with her,” Olivia said with a smile that didn’t reach her
eyes.
“What’s the matter?”
Mr. Smith saw Melanie looking distracted. Melanie looked away, and continued walking forward.
“Nothing. I just saw two people I know.”
“Do you want to go over and say hi?”
“No need. They’ll probably lose their appetite if they see me.”
Melanie smiled as she followed Mr. Smith into the innermost private room. She didn’t expect to see
Olivia and
Lena still remain in contact with each other.
After what Olivia had done to Lena at that banquet, Melanie thought Lena would have seen through
Olivia’s true colors and broke off all contact with the former. The reality was, Lena was wicked at heart
and also blind.

Melanie herself was surprised to see Lena in Willowfort. If Lena was around, then her father Daniel
would be
around, too. Melanie was starting to get worried over her second uncle Damon’s soft-hearted nature.
However, another thought came to mind.
The perfume exhibition was based on ‘Siberian Butterflies’, which was a follow-up from the mountain
bike race. The Hans family’s reputation suffered a hit from the incident. They were probably paying
close attention

She should be worried about herself right now, and not over her second uncle.
After pondering for a moment, Melanie pulled out her phone and texted Damon anyway.
“Damon, I’m in Willowfort right now. When are you free for us to meet up?”
Damon replied to her message when they were almost finishing up their meal. “I’m free anytime. Just
come to my house. Lena and her family are here, too.”
It was exactly as Melanie had expected.
Her eyes grew cold. Damon had always been sensitive and soft-hearted, and certainly unable to
withstand Lena and her family’s emotional blackmail to the point of allowing them to live in his house.
Damon sent her another text.
“Melanie, although there’s been a conflict between you and Lena, you two are still sisters. Even if you
two can’t be close to each other, at least don’t be enemies. It’s better to seek reconciliation than to
keep a grudge alive. Come to my house tomorrow, and I’ll help mediate things between you two, all
right?” Melanie sighed. Lena and her family wanted her dead. She could do without family like that.
She quickly typed a reply. “Damon, I’ll go to your office and find you tomorrow afternoon.”
She had to first persuade Damon in order to ensure that things go smoothly for the perfume exhibition.
