Chapter 201 Serenity Offended Melinda

Dad, Stay Away from My Mom

Early in the morning, Melinda woke up and saw Raymond sleeping peacefully beside her, feeling a wave of warmth in her heart.

She quietly got out of bed and went to the kitchen to whip up a hearty breakfast for Raymond.

At the dining table, the two sat across from each other, enjoying a lovely breakfast together.

Melinda picked up her phone, snapped a picture of the moment, and captioned it, "A happy morning with you by my side!"

She then hit send, sharing the photo on her social media.

Raymond noticed her action and smiled, "My wife is getting more and more amazing!"

Melinda raised an eyebrow proudly, "Of course, I'm the perfect wife who can handle anything."

However, when Melinda saw that the picture had gone viral and made it to the top ten news headlines, she was taken aback.

Countless netizens liked and commented on the post.

She sighed helplessly, "Looks like I need to keep a lower profile from now on."

In the afternoon, Melinda got ready to take Raymond to the lab's new product launch event. She dressed up elegantly, put on a graceful gown, and walked out the door arm in arm with Raymond.

The event was held at the most luxurious hotel in Shadow City.

Frank stood at the entrance to welcome the guests. When he saw Raymond and Melinda, he immediately approached them, "Mr. Raymond Thomas, Mrs. Melinda Thomas, please come in."

Frank personally arranged front-row seats for them and quietly asked Melinda if she would like to give a speech.

Melinda thought for a moment and then declined, "I'll just watch from the audience." Vincent, dressed in a sharp suit, entered the venue with a smile.

The invited experts, all prominent figures in the pharmaceutical industry, arrived one aîter "aînentler, eacrhausning yuritrɑrsīti”

The launch event finally began. Vincent took a deep breath and, as the deputy director of the lab, stepped onto the stage. The large screen behind him began to display slides, showcasing the arduous journey and impressive results of the new product development.

The room fell silent, with everyone's eyes fixed on Vincent and the screen.

His voice was deep and powerful, resonating with everyone. He spoke about the background, process, and significance of the new product, making the audience feel as

if they were part of the challenging and opportunity-filled lab.

Among the attendees were CEOs of pharmaceutical companies.

They nodded in approval, clearly interested and excited about the new product Vincent was presenting.

The presence of these industry leaders added weight and intrigue to the event.

As Vincent's speech reached its climax, the atmosphere in the room peaked. The product demonstration segment drew rounds of applause.

After the event, there was a product launch banquet.

Kaia approached Melinda, "Melinda, does the new product need a spokesperson?"

Melinda glanced at her and replied calmly, "Our medication isn't like other commercial products; we don't need one for now."

Kaia, undeterred, continued to plead, "Melinda, give me a chance!"

Melinda sighed, "You should ask your brother about this."

After returning to her seat, Raymond received a phone call and left the table.

Actress Serenity Powell took the opportunity to go to the restroom and then circled back to where Raymond was.

Seeing Raymond standing alone, she made her move, pretending to twist her ankle and falling towards him, "I'm sorry, Mr. Thomas, I'm not used to wearing such high heels."

Raymond instinctively stepped back, and Serenity only managed to grab his wrist. Seeing that he didn't push her away, Serenity's heart leaped with joy. She continued, "Mr. Thomas, my name is Serenity. If you're looking for a spokesperson for the new product, you can consider me."

She moved closer, trying to pique his interest. However, Raymond remained unmoved and said coolly, "Ms. Powell, my wife handles that."

With that, he shook off her hand and turned away decisively.

Serenity hadn't expected Raymond to be so blunt.

She stood there, feeling a mix of resentment and disappointment.

She knew Raymond's influence; only by getting close to him could she secure her place in the entertainment industry.

Not far away, Delilah witnessed the entire scene. A knowing and disdainful look flashed in her eyes as she quickly sent a text to Melinda.

Melinda, sitting in a corner of the venue, calmly read Delilah's message. A cold smile appeared on her lips, and she had a plan in mind.

Just then, the banquet officially began. As the lab's investor, Raymond naturally had to give a speech. He gracefully walked onto the stage, his deep and magnetic voice drawing the attention of many women in the audience.

Melinda watched him, feeling a surge of pride and admiration.

Suddenly, she stood up, walked to the front of the stage, and kissed Raymond on the cheek in front of everyone.

"Thank you, honey!" she said sweetly.

Raymond was surprised by her sudden gesture but quickly recovered, smiling indulgently.

Serenity, who had just returned to her seat, saw this and her face turned pale. She felt a wave of fear and regret.

She was relieved that Melinda hadn't seen her earlier actions, but she had a nagging feeling. She had heard that Melinda was formidable, having won over the previously aloof Raymond in less than a year.

She worried that Melinda might know something.

The launch event was a huge success, exceeding all expectations.

After the banquet, Raymond took Melinda to a high-end restaurant in Shadow City for a date.

The restaurant had soft lighting and soothing music. Raymond ordered Melinda's favorite foie gras and gave her a brooch as a gift. The brooch was uniquely designed, adorned with several sparkling diamonds, shining like the brightest stars in the night sky.

"Melinda, you look stunning today," Raymond said, gazing at her lovingly. "I hope you like this gift."

"Thank you, Raymond. I love it," Melinda replied with a sweet smile.

After dinner, they chatted for a while before leaving the restaurant.

As night fell, Raymond called William to pick up Sam, so he could stay over at his place

tonight.

The couple strolled hand in hand through the streets, enjoying their rare time alone.

At the lab's Monday morning meeting, Melinda announced a major decision: the new product's spokesperson would not be Serenity.

The room erupted in chatter and debate.

Some questioned the decision, pointing out that the product launch hadn't even started yet and that many pharmaceutical companies were in talks with the Thomas Group about collaborations. The spokesperson wasn't solely their decision. Melinda calmly scanned the room and said, "A spokesperson for our medication must have impeccable character. I think she has too many scandals. Is that reason enough?"

Her voice was soft but carried an undeniable authority and confidence.

Seeing this, everyone fell silent, not daring to say more.

After the meeting, Melinda asked Delilah to stay behind and come to her office.

She looked at Delilah gratefully, "Delilah, thank you for informing me about Serenity. Here's a little something from me."

Delilah nodded repeatedly and accepted the card.

Meanwhile, Serenity's agent received an unbelievable call: the Thomas Group would not be working with Serenity as the spokesperson for the new product.

The agent, shocked, asked for the reason. The caller coldly replied, "Mrs. Thomas doesn't like her," and hung up.
