Chapter 259

Melanie wanted to talk to Xander about the exhibition planning, yet she heard Reny snicker. She grabbed Melanie’s shoulder and said, “Melanie, you’re the first woman to talk to Xander like this.”

Melanie was puzzled. “Was there anything wrong with what I said?”

“No, it’s just that it sounded like you were thanking Xander for being a nice man and rejecting his confession.” Reny was still laughing.

Meanie said nothing more. She was not good at responding to jokes like this.

Xander was not a man of many words and naturally would not respond to Reny’s quip.

He handed Melanie a glass of water. “I have a few drafts to finish. There are books in the study. If they’re too noisy, you can read there.‘

Melanie stood up. “Is there anything I can help with? I remember you said there are many documents to organize.”

She took the glass of water and said, “I’ve been neglecting my job here. I can do anything that needs my assistance.”

Reny and Oliver looked at each other with a chuckle. “There’s nothing you have to help with. We just need you here to chat with us.”

However, just as they spoke, Xander nodded and said, “There are indeed a lot of documents to organize. They’re in the study.”
