Morris nodded. He raised his hand pointing to the empty seat. “Could you please sit quietly, Ma’am? I can’t focus on reading if you’re standing all the time.”

Melanie quickly took her position. With her hands on her lap, she put on a smile that looked scary. “Please continue, Sir.”

“Sorry, Young Master. I can’t answer that now.”

Suddenly, Melanie waved her hand. ‘There won’t be the next one! The apartment was right in my hands.”

Morris nodded. In his heart, he was grateful that Melanie accepted that decision. However, when he was about to take a breath to sp
