Brodie remained composed.

“You don’t want to marry into the Mitchell family? Really? Are you sure about that?”

Melina stared at him.

“What are you getting at?”

Brodie took a slow sip of his coffee before speaking.

“I know you still have feelings for Bryson.

“That’s nonsense!” Melina frowned.

“Is it?” Brodie replied, a hint of amusement in his tone.

“Let me guess what you’re thinking.

Franco Mitchell’s fate is still up in the air.

If he fails, he might end up in prison for life.

Melina paused, setting down her cup.

“What do you want from me?”
