Chapter 159 Melanie only averted her gaze after Lily‘s car disappeared into the distance. She turned to
hold Frank‘s arm as she said, “You promised you would give me what I want.”
“What‘s wrong?” Frank said, patting her cheek. “I want to ruin Lily so badly that she would never want to
be in the public‘s eyes again!” Although Lily‘s car was nowhere in sight now, Melanie turned again to
stare into the distance with resentment in her gaze. , Frank‘s eyes followed her gaze. Smiling, he said, “I
heard you two were classmates before. Is that right?” “Yeah, but I hate her more than anyone.” Melanie

“I will never succeed with her around! She will always steal the limelight from me!”
She added, “You saw it too. Why did we have to meet her here in Middle Valley? She flew here first–

can...”
Before she could finish her words, Frank had already grabbed her wrist and pulled her closer to him. “It‘s
so bland just to do it at the hotel. We should try doing it in different places.” Patiently, she said, trying to

“Isn‘t it more exciting this way?” Frank‘s eyes were bright, and he cared nothing about Melanie‘s
