I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 427 Theft

“This question again?” Linda looked at Melanie with a smile, her eyes twinkling. “You really feel a strong affinity with me, don’t you?”

Melanie’s face remained unchanged. She looked patiently at Linda, waiting for the latter’s answer.

There seemed to be no reasonable explanation for the many coincidences between them. However, Melanie clearly remembered being rescued by a mysterious stranger from the fire at the

York’s estate.

When she was unconscious, the mother of that little boy once said that she knew that she was pregnant… Since Melanie saved that little boy, said woman would do all she could to protect the

mother and child.

Wasn’t everything that Linda was doing to protect Melanie and her child?!

“I feel a strong affinity with you, too. It feels just marvelous!” Linda said.

Melanie wasn’t surprised. She didn’t expect Linda to give her a genuine answer anyway.

However, Linda’s vague answers to her questions were enough for Melanie to pinpoint the problem. Melanie smiled, and didn’t push further.

She went back, and reported to Linda and Leo about the research and development and mass production progress of her two new fragrances named “Falling Snow” and “In The Moonlight“. The factory and research and development centers were both located in Harbor City. She even invited them there for a site visit when they had the time.

Linda suggested co–branding her newly–designed jewelry series, Sun and Moon, with Melanie’s second fragrance named, In the Moonlight, to which Melanie readily agreed.

Although the Yorks and the Yanceys were considered as higher–level sources of capital, there were pros and cons in getting Jones Enterprise involved with them. But with such higher–level sources of capital throwing an olive branch at Melanie, she had no way of rejecting them.
