Chapter 304 Coordinated Performance

Pushing open the door of the private room, a gust of cold wind blew in. Melanie felt herself sobering up.

She suddenly thought of something.

Luis wouldn’t have invited her and Quincy as third wheelers for no reason. Could it be that he sensed something unusual between her and Jeffrey, so he was testing the waters?

From the Angle family’s centennial celebration to the vast mountain racecourse, wherever Luis paid attention, Jeffrey was there protecting her. Upon careful consideration, this was very likely Luis’s intention.

If he found out that there was more than met the eye between Jeffrey and her, Luis might have other plans. If he was determined to have his daughter marry into the Morgans, he might secretly deal with her.

Having figured this out, Melanie’s heart suddenly felt less heavy. Leaning against the door, she took a moment to collect herself before turning to go back. Just as she reached out to push the door, it opened from the inside.

Melanie was startled. She unexpectedly ran into Jeffrey, who was also standing by the door.

“You…?” They both asked in unison.

“President Morgan, please-” Melanie quickly reacted and gave way to Jeffrey, maintaining a calm demeanor.

to fall into Luis’s trap.

Unexpectedly, she returned so quickly, leaving him no choice but to go to the restroom to make it look natural…

Just now, when Melanie went out, Jeffrey quickly found an excuse to leave. Due to this, Luis had some suspicions, but now Melanie suddenly came back. She couldn’t have had time to meet Jeffrey outside. Luis
