“Will you wear that tonight?” Annie asked out of curiosity.

“I will,” Melanie said with a sigh. “Jeffrey will be going to the dinner, too. If I don’t wear it, it’ll be obvious that I agreed to go just to anger him. He’ll never sign the divorce papers that way.”

Jeffrey was going to the dinner too?

Annie nodded. She felt more assured with Jeffrey accompanying Melanie to the dinner.

Melanie put the box containing the gown and jewelry aside, and got changed into a casual set of shirt and long pants that was comfortable to move in. Very soon, she received a message from the Snow family’s private investigator.

“Have you thought this through?” Annie asked, still concerned.

“It’s fine. I have to actively enter the lion’s den instead of being a sitting duck,” Melanie said as she patted Annie’s shoulders. “Jeffrey’s men are also stationed nearby the fragrance blending room. Don’t worry.”

Annie nodded. Since when did Jeffrey become such a great comfort to her when it came to Melanie?

the surveillance cameras.
