Chapter 486 Up for a Match?

As soon as Kenneth said that, the whole room erupted into chaos.

Elise is his woman?! Then, what does that make Melody, who is practically stuck to his side all the time?

However, Melody acted aloof and she stood there quite calmly, as if she was not the least bit inquisitive of her boss’ woman.

Mr. Carnegie was initially stunned, but he quickly collected himself and chuckled. “This is unexpected, Mr. Bailey. You’re very good-looking, so you must be popular with the ladies. You young ones are quite impressive. I’m not a match at all.”

“You’ve got it wrong.” Elise then added, “I’m not related to him at all.”

However, Kenneth disregarded her words and looked toward Mr. Carnegie in resignation as he explained, “Women tend to enjoy such games.”

“I completely understand.” At that point, Mr. Carnegie revealed a knowing look and he patted Kenneth on the back. “I’m sorry for being rude earlier. Don’t take it personally.”

“It’s fine.” Kenneth dealt with everything with ease.

In the end, Mr. Carnegie made a move after making small talk for a short while.

Just then, Elise turned to glance coldly at Kenneth and she warned him, “You’d better not challenge my limits.”

“Tsk!” Kenneth revealed a hurt look and said, “I’m heartbroken, Miss Sinclair. I helped you when you were in trouble, so how could you treat me this way?”

“I didn’t ask you for help.” Elise couldn’t help rolling her eyes at him before walking off.

The smile on Kenneth’s face disappeared and he turned to signal to Melody. Subsequently, the latter went after Elise.

“Miss Sinclair,” Melody trailed after Elise and followed her as they strolled mindlessly along. “How much do you know about Mr. Carnegie?”

she suddenly realized that Melody had been following her.

Melody ignored her question and continued to explain, “Jim Carnegie is the organizer of the gem auction event and he’s the head of one of the founding families of Dukethorn. In the past, the Carnegie Family would always manage to gain a lot of top-grade gemstones from each gem auction event. All this while,
