Chapter 138 It’s Because You’re Stupid
Feeling deeply humiliated, Melody cast a glance at Joseph, expecting him to reprimand his employee
on her behalf.
However, Joseph’s countenance was dark, making him hundreds of times more intimidating than the
assistant standing before her.
In the end, Melody glared fiercely at Lucas before storming off in
anger.
Fueled by rage, Melody returned to the site and looked for Chloe.
“You did this on purpose, didn’t you?” she confronted Chloe as she seethed with anger.
Chloe blinked innocently. “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
“You intentionally set me up to provoke Mr. Joseph and make a fool of myself!”
“But it was you who volunteered for the task and insisted on helping me deliver it,” Chloe replied,
glancing at the developer and saying earnestly, “I’m not remembering things wrong,
am I?”
The developer let out an awkward smile and turned to Melody. “That’s enough, Melody. Go fetch us
some coffee.”

‘He’s her uncle?’
A sudden realization struck Chloe. Considering Melody’s limited abilities. no company would be willing
to hire her if she did not have any connections.
Feeling helpless due to their family relationship, the developer did not say anything too harsh to
Melody, merely waving his hand for her to quickly go buy the coffee.
Chloe stood with her arms crossed, maintaining a calm and composed demeanor. Her expression
resembled that of a spectator, enjoying the unfolding drama.
Standing at the side, Wendy’s face sank. From her perspective, Joseph was typically calm and
collected, rarely showing signs of anger. Melody must have done something to upset him and was now
attempting to pass the blame onto someone in her department.
“I suggest you first appease the emotions of your company’s staff before we discuss any cooperation
further,” Wendy said.
It was exceedingly uncommon for the developer to secure a lucrative business opportunity with
Fairlight, and he had put in tremendous effort to make it happen. Therefore, he was determined not to
allow Melody to jeopardize everything he had worked so hard for.
With that thought in mind, he raised his voice, bringing up Melody’s parents and reproaching her, “If
you feel aggrieved in my company and can’t continue working here, I can have your parents come and
pick you up right now.”
Melody fell silent and reluctantly went to buy coffee. Fifteen minutes later, she returned with three cups
in hand. She extended one toward Chloe, and suddenly, an idea took shape in her head. Her eyes
swiveled around in their sockets as she smiled. “I apologize for earlier. I tend to be quite frank, so
please don’t take it personally.”
Chloe knew Melody was up to no good. She recalled that Melody was part of the team when Peter
nearly violated her last time.
She smiled silently and reached out to take the cup.
Melody tilted her wrist as if intending to spill the coffee on Chloe. However, Chloe deftly maneuvered
her body, evading the impending spill, while “unintentionally” stepping on Melody’s shoe.
“Ouch! Are you blind?!” Melody shrieked in pain, her voice filled with anguish.
Chloe sneered coldly, “You didn’t hand the coffee to me properly and instead spilled it on my clothes.
So, who’s the one that’s blind?”
Realizing that Chloe had done it intentionally, Melody lunged forward, her teeth bared and her hands

However, Chloe was prepared and forcefully pushed Melody away. To her surprise, Melody, seemingly
consumed by madness due to Joseph’s actions, persisted and lunged at her once more like a wild cat.

your fault! If it weren’t for your meddling, my uncle wouldn’t have been fired by Fairlight and I could be
working for Fairlight!
“Why are you so shameless? Your mother must’ve not taught you well! Ava was right! The Johnsons
were right to disown you! You’re a curse!”
For Chloe, her mother had always been a sore spot. Infuriated, she raised her hand and slapped.
Melody. A crisp sound echoed through the air.
Chloe’s hand stung, her eyes crimson as she stared at the bewildered Melody.
“Do you know why Ava likes being friends with you? It’s because you’re stupid,” she said, her voice
cold. “You defend her, but she just thinks of you as a pawn. You should consider visiting a hospital for a
brain check. Having such low intelligence is a problem.”
During her interview at Fairlight, it was highly likely that Ava was pulling the strings behind
