Chapter 237 Melinda’s Heart Is Not Here

Melinda seated herself across from Mervin as Bethany promptly served another breakfast. “Ms. Paisley, would you prefer regular or soy milk?”

“Either is fine.” She had calm elegance akin to the blooming lilies behind her and purposefully avoided meeting his gaze.

He also did not look at her and focused on eating his breakfast.

Bethany felt the awkwardness lingering in the air. These two seem awkward together. Still, it’s already a significant improvement that Ms. Paisley came downstairs. Why isn’t Mr. Laurent greeting her with a smile? What could he be upset about?

After breakfast, Mervin’s phone rang. He answered the call in front of everyone, leaving them unaware of what the caller said. He responded, “I’m okay with nine. I’ll be there shortly.” With that, he rose from his seat and headed toward the door without bidding Melinda farewell.

However, as he walked by Bethany, he set his phone down and purposely halted his steps. “I have a shoot today, so I’ll return late.

“Alright, Mr. Laurent. You can rest assured,” she said considerately, “I’ll take care of Ms. Paisley’s dinner.”

He glanced at the woman seated with her back to him enjoying her breakfast calmly as if indifferent to his presence or departure.
