Chapter 376 Over 15 Million Dollars

Kelly swallowed past her constricted throat. From the corner of her eye, she could see everyone

sniggering at her. It made her feel even more awkward.

Melanie Jones has a sharp tongue indeed!

But she hadn’t made her move yet. It wasn’t yet clear who between them was the victor!

Kelly put down the plate, and sneered as she looked at Melanie from head to toe. “Are you wearing the

gown. Leo gave you?”

Melanie looked back at Kelly and noticed that the disdainful look in her eyes resembled Harlow. Both of

them showed no respect and regard for others.

“Do you know how much the gown and jewelry you’re wearing costs? Don’t you feel bad accepting

them?” Kelly raised her voice, accusing Melanie bitterly right in front of everyone.

Melanie was speechless. Although she knew that such banquets were dull and boring, she should have

expected even more dull and boring people to come along and broaden her horizons.

“The Murrays have invested in this country for years, and have been thriving. You probably don’t lack

money, do you, Ms. Murray?” Melanie bit back.

Kelly couldn’t wrap her mind around Melanie’s remark. “What do you mean by that?”

Melanie sneered. “Or has business in Medonia getting harder? Both you and Mr. Murray are paying so

much attention to my gown and jewelry. These are but worldly possessions. Are the Yorks incapable of

affording them, or are the Murrays the ones who are unable to afford them?”

“Don’t you dare speak so arrogantly!”

Kelly didn’t expect Melanie’s mind to shift so quickly. She had no chance whatsoever to take verbal

advantage of her, and was overcome with frustration.

“Worldly possessions? The necklace and gown you’re wearing cost 7.5 million dollars combined! Am I

the one who’s money–minded, or are you the gold–digger?”

“I think you’re the one who’s money–minded,” Melanie went on calmly. “I don’t lack money, and I have

the ability to create steady flows of income for myself. Why would I bother being a gold–digger?”

Leo heard the commotion and came over with guests whom he was exchanging pleasantries with. He

asked in confusion, “What’s going on?”

“Nothing. Ms. Murray was praising my beautiful gown.” Melanie smiled graciously before everyone.

Kelly was, after all, a well–known socialite in upper class society. She smiled, and hid her anger when

she saw crowds gathering around them. “Exactly!”

“Oh, yes. Mr. York, you mentioned that you were interested in the perfume I concocted, right?” Melanie

said, deliberately bringing that up in front of everyone.

Leo’s eyes darted around, guessing Melanie’s intent. He went with the flow, and said, “That’s right, two

perfumes are to be submitted for this year’s competition for which the theme is ‘Unraveling Enigmas, I

want to be the first to secure the spot of your perfume’s sponsor in advance.”

“But the results of the competition aren’t out yet. Isn’t it too risky to make an investment decision right

now?” Melanie smiled elegantly.

“No risk, no return. The last time I wanted to sponsor your Siberian Butterflies, President Morgan beat

me to it. I don’t want to miss out again this time!”

Leo deliberately raised his voice.

“What’s more, I trust your abilities. Morgan Group has been doing great financially since they started

sponsoring Siberian Butterflies! Everyone has been praising President Morgan for having good

judgment.” “Indeed. I heard my dad say that Siberian Butterflies has raked in profits over 15 million

dollars before hitting the one–month mark of its launch. President Morgan really has a good eye for

this.”

Just then, Isla walked through the crowd and stopped next to Melanie, looking as though she was

supporting her while looking for Jeffrey who stood out in the crowd.

“Over 15 million dollars…”

All the ladies who had been waiting expectantly for a good show exchanged looks as they mumbled

under their breaths. They didn’t expect Melanie to be so capable.

No wonder she claimed to have the ability to create steady flows of income for herself…
