Chapter 207
"Oh?" Frank showed a flicker of interest. "Do I know her?"
"You've seen her before," Melanie said with a meaningful smile. "Do you remember Lily?"
"Your rival in love?" Frank stroked his chin, the girl's beautiful face appearing before him. He'd been very impressed the first time he saw her, though he'd had no chance to act on his interest then. Melanie sneered disdainfully. "Rival in love? She's not worthy! However, if it's to change your taste, she might not be so bad."
Frank wasn't interested in female intrigues, but he did enjoy having fun. "Indeed, she isn't," he said after a pause. "But, as far as I know, she's no longer with MN, Inc. Now she's in the same boat as you. Are you sure you can convince her?"
Melanie shook her head and sat on the edge of the sofa. "Must you use this method to get beautiful women? There are so many other ways."
"As I said, I don't like to force peopleโฆ"
Melanie interrupted, "Frank, you also said you like to try new things. Don't be so thoughtless. Forbidden fruit always tastes best, so why don't you try it?"
Frank's eyes were like an abyss as he looked at Melanie. She saw the excitement and eagerness in them. Men were like birds of a feather, after all. Once they got what they wanted, it lost its appeal. They only desired the unattainable.
Frank used various methods to coerce Melanie. Soon, he grew tired of her and turned his attention to Lily. This suited Melanie perfectly; it was like killing three birds with one stone. She could maintain her relationship with Frank without risk and achieve her own aims. It was ideal.
"So, you already have a solution?"
"Of course. There are ways, but you must wait for the opportunity. Don't worry. I will help you get what you want, but don't forget what you promised me!"
As Frank moved closer, he lifted Melanie's chin with a finger. She said softly, "Don't forget the old for the new."
"You're so thoughtful. How could I forget you?" Frank leaned down and kissed her.
Melanie was flustered. She knew what he'd done half an hour earlier but didn't dare to mention it. She placed a hand on his chest, lowering her head shyly. "Didn't you say you'd lost interest in me?"
"I changed my mind," He kissed her forehead.
Melanie was quiet.
They made love. Afterwards, Melanie calmly dressed, adjusting her scarf. Her appearance was impeccable. Frank, meanwhile, lay soundly asleep on the bed, his arms outstretched, the blanket covering his waist and leaving his upper body exposed.
