The Unwilling CEO’s Love Game

Chapter 83

Chapter 83

Melvin heard Jocelyn’s phone chirp with the low-battery warning. Rarely did he act attentively before, he plugged it in for her.

A Facebook notification popped up on the screen.

Melvin seldom pried into her personal apps. Aside from that one time he’d deleted Harrison’s Facebook, this was the second time he’d touched her phone.

But this message mentioned Willow

Just be patient. Willow has always been a bit of a mess. With a little more patience, she’ll crumble and her reputation will be in tatters.] Jocelyn’s eyes narrowed at the sight of her phone in Melvin’s hand.

“Are you checking through my phone?”

“You’re planning revenge on Willow? Melvin’s gaze turned sharp as he caught sight of the previous photos

Jocelyn strode over, snatched the phone from his grip and saw the message from Ulla.

Combined with the previous context, it was clear as day she was out to get Willow.

She did have once harbored such thoughts.

But then she figured Melvin’s indifference towards Willow was already the best revenge of all

The one who truly wants to take down Willow isn’t me, Jocelyn protested, not wanting to be falsely accused. “I did think about it, since Willow struck at me first. But I’ve given up now.”

“These messages are updated lately. And you said it’s not you? Melvin squinted, skepticism in his voice. “When did you start resorting to such low-level tactics?”

Jocelyn paused, a mix of shock and hurt on her face. “You don’t believe me?”

“Am I blind? Can’t I see the messages on your phone?” Melvin’s chilly stare bore into her “Is ruining Willow’s reputation so important to you? When have you ever taken my words to heart? Does it really need to be this elaborate?”

Each question struck Jocelyn like a hammer blow.

She thought she was the one who should be asking the questions.

It was like the lead runner in a race suddenly tripped by someone from behind, both tumbling to the ground. Yet before the fallen could ask why, the other was already accusing her of being in the way.
