Chapter 49 The Devouring Kiss

Melinda struggled, angrily trying to break free, but Raymond's strength was too great, and she was directly pressed into a corner.

In an instant, Raymond's handsome face approached, their eyes met, so close that they could almost feel each other's breath.

Raymond's hot breath fell on Melinda's face. She pushed him away in exasperation and whispered angrily, "Raymond, what do you want?"

"Why did you agree to William's proposal?" Raymond's voice was cold, as if it came from the depths of hell.

Feeling Raymond's dangerous aura, Melinda turned her head away, "What does it have to do with you!"

"How does it not? Because we..."

Raymond gritted his teeth and reminded her, "Nothing has ever happened between us." Melinda stiffened her neck, showing no weakness.

Under the light, Melinda's red lips were alluring, and Raymond's gaze instantly deepened.

He suddenly reached out, his thumb gently brushing over her lips, his voice low and domineering, "This is where I kissed, and from now on, I won't allow anyone else to touch it, including William."

Melinda was about to protest, but as soon as she opened her red lips, Raymond suddenly kissed her. His kiss was domineering and passionate, as if he wanted to devour her whole.

Melinda's mind went blank, and she could only let out a weak moan.

For some reason, Raymond's kiss seemed to have a magical power, making her body unable to move.

"Mm!" Melinda's hands were tightly held by Raymond, she couldn't break free, and could only let Raymond do as he pleased.

Behind the door, a pair of eyes filled with jealousy were staring at them.

Emily had only suspected, but now she saw with her own eyes Raymond and Melinda embracing and kissing in the corner.

Emily's heart was pierced with pain, she was about to go crazy.

What means did Melinda use to seduce Raymond? Raymond was so infatuated with her that he even snatched William's fiancée?

At this moment, footsteps came from behind, and Emily dared not stay any longer, hurriedly leaving through another door.

On the terrace, Melinda was on the verge of collapse. Was Raymond trying to ruin her reputation?

At this moment, Raymond let go of her but held her tightly in his arms, hiding her face.

Now, Melinda was forced to nestle in Raymond's arms, not daring to move, afraid of being discovered by the three men who had just entered.

The three men were stunned as soon as they entered the door. Why was there a person standing in the corner? They took a closer look and saw a tall man holding a woman in his arms?

Before they could react, Raymond's cold and sharp eyes swept over them, and they instantly recognized Raymond, the young master of the Thomas family.

"Sorry to disturb you." The three men quickly turned and left.

As soon as they left, Melinda angrily raised her head, but she raised it too quickly, her forehead hitting Raymond's hard chin, causing her to cry out in pain.

She glared at him, only to meet a pair of deep, icy eyes that seemed to freeze her.

"Don't blame me for being ruthless." His voice was as cold as ice, each word squeezed out through his teeth, carrying an undeniable threat, "When the time comes, don't blame me for doing something you'll regret." Raymond threatened in a deep voice, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

"Raymond, are you threatening me? Even if I refuse William, I won't marry you."

After saying that, Melinda pushed him away and turned to leave the way she came. However, she walked too quickly, her dress tripping her, causing her to lose balance. "Ouch!" Melinda's knee hit the steps hard, making her gasp in pain.

Raymond took a long stride and instantly came to her side, extending his arm to support her.

"Go away, I don't need your help."

Melinda shook off his hand and limped forward, cursing Raymond countless times in her heart.

Raymond watched her stubborn back, shook his head helplessly, then took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Send a car to take a girl in a gray dress home."

After saying that, he adjusted his tie and walked into the banquet hall, exuding an aura of nobility that commanded respect.

When Melinda reached downstairs, the manager came up to her, "Miss, do you need a car to take you home?"

She nodded, "Thank you."

Sitting in the car, Melinda let out a long sigh. If she had known, she wouldn't have come to this banquet. What bad luck.

However, she didn't know that she had offended more than just Emily tonight.

Tiffany was also inquiring about her, how dare Melinda compete with her for William?

At this moment, Emily was trembling with anger. Just thinking about Raymond and Melinda kissing in the corner made her heart ache.

In the private room of the banquet hall, Larry looked at William in shock, "William, was

it really Melinda who saved your life?"

"Yes, Grandpa! If it weren't for her, I would have been dead under that car."

William's voice was filled with determination. Although he didn't say it explicitly, the horror of that car accident was deeply etched in his mind.

Larry's heart tightened, and he quickly clutched his chest, "William, don't scare me." "Grandpa, don't get excited, I'm fine now."

Seeing this, William quickly came over to massage Larry's shoulders, a playful smile on his lips, "Grandpa, what do you think about me marrying her and making her your granddaughter-in-law?"

Hearing this, Larry thought about how the Thomas family owed the Sharp family, a debt that could never be repaid in this lifetime.

First, Melinda's father Scott saved his grandson Raymond, and now Melinda saved his grandson William. How could he repay such a debt?

"William, are you two really in love?" Larry couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Of course! Our relationship is great." William said proudly.

"In that case, I support you taking care of Melinda and her child." Larry said with a

smile.

"Grandpa, how do you know Melinda has a child?" William asked in surprise.

Larry smiled mysteriously, "Anyway, I hope you marry her soon. I'm looking forward to your wedding."

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the private room. The waiter opened the door, and a figure slowly walked in, so handsome it was breathtaking.

Seeing Raymond, William got excited and massaged Larry's shoulders even harder, "Thank you, Grandpa, for supporting me! I will definitely marry Melinda for you!"

William confidently promised, then provocatively looked at his rival Raymond, "Raymond, you can look forward to attending my wedding!"

Raymond sat down expressionlessly, his deep gaze sweeping over William, "She has to agree to marry you first."

"Melinda has already accepted my proposal!" William boasted proudly.
