The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 4 A Flea’s Mockery

After Sylvia gave Melanie a good dressing down, she went over to Caspian’s side.

She reached out and linked her arm with Caspian’s, whispering, “Lord Caspian, how did I do?”

Caspian nodded and walked alongside Sylvia to the SUV.

Melanie had always thought that Caspian couldn’t drive.

At that moment, she realized that Caspian not only knew how to drive, but he had excellent skills.

She stared after the Mercedes-Benz SUV as it sped away, the engine’s roar fading.

After standing dumbstruck for some time, Melanie grabbed Bobby’s arm.

He was also in a daze.

She said to him, “Bobby, Caspian must be acting, right? He must have spent all his savings to employ a beautiful actress and rent a luxurious car to put on a show.

“He wanted to change my mind so that I would go back to him. Isn’t that right?”

Bobby was confused by Caspian and everything that had happened.

After listening to Melanie’s assumptions, he suddenly had an epiphany.

“Melanie, you’re right. I remembered that there is a domestic car brand that makes SUVs that look a lot like the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon.

“Changing the logo would easily fool someone. As for those luxury handbags, we only saw the packaging before that woman burnt them all up.

“There might have been nothing of value inside!”

Melanie and Bobby reached a conclusion. She nodded. “I agree with you, Bobby. Those bags must have been fake. Or else, she wouldn’t have set them on fire so casually.

“I frequent those luxury stores, so I would have known whether they were authentic at first glance.

“She must have been afraid that I would find out, that was why she deliberately set them on fire in front of me.”
