Melody could not believe what she heard.

She stared at Micheal with her eyes wide open. "You mean that my dad is afraid of Jeanne!"

"1 don't know if Chief is afraid of Jeanne, but there's one thing that I am sure of. He doesn't want us to have a direct conflict with her."

"Why?"

"He won't tell me," Micheal said straightforwardly.

"I'm going to ask him!"

"I advise you not to!" Micheal stopped her. "If Chief would tell you, he wouldn't have grounded you and not said anything."

Melody gritted her teeth.

"Mel, you grew up in a complicated environment in the Sanders. You should know very well that a moment of mistake can lead to eternal damnation. Now that you're so favored by Chief, many people are jealous of you and would love nothing more than for something to happen to you. So, you have to be careful in everything you do!" Micheal sounded serious. "Luckily, Chief didn't really pursue this matter this time. If he were to pursue it, it would be very difficult for you to walk out of this room again."

Melody was shocked for a second.

Indeed.

It was risky to stay with someone of high position.

Melody had known this since she was young.

She looked at Micheal.

Micheal said, "If you calm down, get someone to help you pass on a message to Chief so that he'll lift your grounding. However, don't confront Jeanne directly when you get out." "Should I just watch her develop and deliberately fall in love with Edward then?"" Melody could not bear it in the end.

When she thought of how Edward and Jeanne slept together that day, she could not calm herself down.

She wished that she could kill Jeanne!

"For the time being, let's wait and see," Micheal suggested.

Melody could not bear it.

"I skipped work to come here. I still have many things to deal with, so I'll be leaving first." Micheal did not say anything else after that.

Many things needed to be thought through by Melody herself.

Melody grew up in a special environment, after all. She knew how to protect herself.

"Micheal," Melody called out to him.

"Hm?" Micheal nodded.

"1'11 definitely kill Jeanne," Melody enunciated each word clearly.

Micheal frowned slightly.

"It doesn't have to be done by me, but I won't let her

have it easy." "Mel..."

"Don't try to persuade me." Melody was straightforward. "I know how to control myself. I won't be so stupid as to sacrifice myself."

Micheal looked at her.

"Can't we use Eden?" Melody sneered. "Let Eden fight with Jeanne. What do you think?"

"Eden can't defeat her," Micheal gave a positive answer.

Not to mention that they did not know Jeanne's identity before, now that they knew her identity was extraordinary, it was even more impossible for Eden to defeat her.

"If I can't do it openly, I'll do it covertly," Melody said coldly, "I'm just using someone else to kill her."
