Janetâs voice trembled with tears.
Struggling to speak, she managed, âMelissa⦠Shawn⦠He.
.
Melissa sensed something was wrong.
âTake your time.
Breathe.
Tell me whatâs going on.
â
Janet broke down, saying between sobs, âShawnâs messed up big time!
Can you come over, Melissa?â
Without hesitation, Melissa reassured her, âIâm on my way!â
She grabbed her car keys and dashed out of the office.
The job offer letter remained on her deskâ¦
Thirty minutes later.
Marcus, wrapping up a meeting nearby, decided to swing by Melissaâs office for coffee.
However, he learned from the secretary that Melissa had left earlier.
Marcus, with a soft tone, expressed, âDo you mind if I wait for her here?â
He was not just the head honcho at Fowler Group, but also Melissaâs⦠boyfriend.
The assistant hesitated, deciding not to intervene as Marcus strolled into Melissaâs office curiously.
Inside Melissaâs office.
Taking a quick look around, Marcusâ gaze landed on the letter.
He picked it up delicately, scanning its contents.
Ah, it seemedâ¦
Melissa had earned herself another promotion!
Meanwhile, Melissa drove back to her old apartment, where Shawn and his family were staying now.
As she entered, she found Julie consoling Janet.
Janet looked lost.
Spotting Melissa, she croaked, âIâm sorry to bother you, Melissa.
But I really didnât know who else to turn to.
â
Melissa reached out, comforting her immediately.
Wiping her tears, Julie turned to Melissa, explaining, âShawnâs been on a roll lately with his business.
I warned him not to get too c@@ky, but he never listens.
He thought he hit the jackpot with some merchandise, worth millions, but it got ruined in the rain during transportation!
