I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 22 Revenge Begins

As Bryan and Lena entered, Melanie immediately caught a familiar scent of perfume. It was the same one she used.

She could not help but smirk. Melanie recalled how after she had questioned Bryan twice about the scent of a woman’s perfume on him, Lena tried to deceive her by asking her about her perfume, claiming that she liked it too.

Since then, Lena had been using the same perfume as Melanie, making it convenient for Lena to engage in an affair with Bryan.

Lena, unaware of Melanie’s thoughts, approached her with a conciliatory tone. “Mel, I’ve invited Bryan today to set things straight. Let’s not hold any grudges.”

Melanie responded sarcastically, “I obtained the invite for the International Socialites Gala. Is that not something you’ll hold a grudge over?

Lena waved her hands and feigned a smile. “Of course not, I’m genuinely happy for you.”

At that moment, Bryan approached and embraced Melanie in an overbearing manner, exclaiming, “Mel, being intoxicated was the cause of these misunderstandings. I promise I won’t ever drink that much again. Please believe me, Mel. I love only you. In a few days, we’ll have our engagement ceremony again.”

It was amazing how love could reduce one’s intelligence to none. Melanie could not believe she had fallen for Bryan’s act in the past.

She took a deep breath to control her frustration.

Bryan continued to talk, thinking she fell for his act. “Tomorrow is the anniversary of the West Corp, Mel. My father will officially announce my entry into the board in front of the media. I’ll be able to give you a better life starting then!”
