My Super Sassy Dad: Stop Running Away, Mrs. Quinn!
Chapter 853 - 854: Acting SpoiledThe low, magnetic voice was laced with heavy displeasure!
"That’s not really fair to say. I’m Melody Thorne’s lifesaver. Of course I had to come see her first. There’s no difference between discussing business at Quinn Corporation and discussing it here. I don’t think Young Master Jared would mind," Elias Hale chuckled.
Jared Quinn walked over to the sofa and, with a domineering move, pulled the excited Melody Thorne—who was staring at Elias—into his arms. "I’ve already been considering your idea of the Hale Family taking the Rowan Family’s place, Young Master Hale. But you barged into my villa without permission. In that case, we might as well scrap this cooperation!"
"Calm down, calm down." Elias let out a light laugh, utterly unconcerned. "I’ve saved you, and I’ve saved Melody Thorne. Maybe before I leave I can even help Melody get her memory back. Shouldn’t we sit down and talk this cooperation through properly?"
"You two take your time talking. I’m going upstairs to look after little Qianmo," Melody pried open the large hand at her waist and let out a couple of soft laughs.
Right then, her phone buzzed with a text message.
[Melody, the post-production for the movie we invested in a month ago is already underway. I’ve set the premiere date for half a month from now. As the boss, you definitely have to attend. To avoid any screwups, I’ve sent you some information. If everything goes well, our company can go public.]
Melody Thorne: "...Okay."
She opened the web browser and found that it was flooded with news about her. Quite a few netizens were saying that every time Melody Thorne appeared, she would disappear again afterward!
"Pfft." Melody couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Downstairs, after the two men finished talking business, Elias Hale acted like he couldn’t understand human speech and stubbornly refused to leave, insisting on staying for dinner.
"Elias Hale, don’t push your luck," Jared Quinn warned darkly, his face overcast.
"Young Master Hale saved me before, so just let him stay for dinner," Melody coaxed sweetly, looking at Elias like she was looking at a long-lost relative!
"You’re not allowed to act cute at me because of another man!"
"So are you letting Elias Hale stay for dinner or not?" A layer of bright light flashed in Melody’s clear eyes. "Just let him stay for dinner, okay?"
Jared Quinn: "!!!"
At the long dining table, Melody Thorne was in a great mood, frequently staring at Elias Hale and smiling, while Jared Quinn barely ate a few bites.
"Young Master, there’s a woman outside who says she wants to see you," the butler said.
"Let her in."
"Young Master Quinn." Jane Rowan walked in with a well-practiced smile on her face and casually swept her gaze over Elias Hale. "So Young Master Hale is here too!"
"If Miss Rowan is coming here, of course I’d be here as well," Elias replied with a faint smile.
"Looks like the rumors in Zetania about the Hale Family preparing to take the Rowan Family’s place are true. Otherwise, Young Master Hale couldn’t possibly be here."
"The world is unpredictable. The Rowan Family’s business was poorly managed and made such huge mistakes. Even if our Hale Family didn’t make a move, plenty of others would," Elias indirectly admitted to the rumor.
"You..."
Jane Rowan shifted her gaze to Jared Quinn. "Young Master Quinn, the business between our two families earlier was handled by a director under us. My father and I had no idea about the termination of our cooperation. We only just got to the bottom of it. I hope the Quinn Family can consider the fact that we’ve cooperated for so many years and give us another chance."
"No."
Before Jared Quinn could speak, Melody Thorne jumped in, tattling on Jane to Jared. "This woman called me this morning. I recognized her voice. She even threatened me, saying that if she couldn’t find some Titus Quinn, she wouldn’t let me off. She’s still trying to come after me and even wants someone to kidnap me!"
