Chapter 59
Adrian was now technically her nephew. As the deputy general manager of Jenkins Group, Gwyneth shouldn’t leave the clients alone, and as Harrison’s wife, she should leave some kind of gift for her nephew,
So, she smiled sweetly, tossed a card from Jenkins Group onto the round table, and pushed it over. By the time the card reached Adrian, Gwyneth had already lef with Flora and Melanie.
She only said. “Mr. Lopez, feel free to use it.”
Adrian picked up the black card and smirked. “Gwyneth is quite an interesting woman”
After leaving the hotel, Gwyneth only hailed a taxi for herself and Flora. Before closing the car door, she gave Melanie a cold look.
“You better keep a low profile and stop speaking up, so you don’t embarrass the Jenkins family,” she said.
She slammed the door shut. The driver immediately pulled away, leaving Melanie standing there, so angry that she felt dizzy.
She thought it was obvious that Gwyneth had stolen her project, yet Gwyneth had the nerve to blame her.
Melanie stood there in the cold wind for a while before her driver finally arrived. As soon as she got in the car, she kicked the back of the driver’s
“To the company?” she ordered. “I need to let Dad know that Gwyneth has already got Harrison and now she’s trying to steal my Adrian
“Yes, ma’am” The driver frowned slightly, hiding his disdain, and drove toward the company
He finally understood why not many people in the company liked Melanie–her temper was just terrible.
As soon as the car stopped, Melanie rushed straight to Quentin’s office and burst into loud complaints as soon as she saw him.
Dad, you have to do something about Gwyneth She’s already married to Harrison, and yet she was openly flirting with Adrian in front of everyone!” With that, Melanie pulled out the surveillance video from the hotel.
Throughout the entire clip, Adrian was staring at Gwyneth, while Melanie, despite her sexy outfit, failed to attract his attention at all.
Quentin was furious. “This is outrageous! I think she’s just worried that since Harrison can’t have children, the inheritance will all go to Adrian, so she’s trying to get close to lam,” he said. “Melanie, don’t worry. Adrian’s wife will only be you.”
“Dad, you have to teach her lesson so she’ll never dare to take anything from me again!” Melanie cried, her tears streaming down her face, but the moment she threw herself into her father’s arms, a smile flickered in her eyes..
She sneered inwardly, ‘Gwyneth, Dad’s just waiting for you to mess up. You won’t hold on to that deputy general manager position for long
A moment later, Gwyneth walked in, clicking her high heels. Before she could even steady herself, she heard Quentin’s furious scolding.
“You, a married woman, are actually flirting with your husband’s nephew? How can you do something so horrendous? Quentin didn’t care about the whole story and started questioning her right away.
“Why would I flin with Adrian? Gwyneth was at a loss for words.
She walked over to them and asked Melanie, enunciating each word clearly, “You went to Dad and said I was flirting with Adrian, but in reality, you were the one trying to throw yourself at him, weren’t you?”
Hearing this, Melame glanced away guiltily, Gwyneth pressed on, grabbing Melanie’s chin and lifting her face forcefully
“Do you really think Adrian likes you? Your desperate attempts today only made you look pathetic” Gwyneth said. “He ignored you, and now you’re blaming mel
The Loper family might not be as strict as the Jenkins family in general, but when it came to choosing spouses, they were particularly demanding.
Melanie couldn’t argue back and started crying right away, throwing herself into Quentin’s arms for comfort.
Quentin was extremely angry. “Gwyneth, what on earth are you trying to do?”
Gwyneth let out a cold sneer. “That’s what I should be asking you two. I was just there to conduct business, but Melanic showed up, acting crazy embarrassing everyone, and now you’re accusing me of flining with Adrian?”

“What about the business? Where did it go? What about the investment?” Melanie pressed on, raising her voice significantly.
Suddenly, Flora knocked and entered the room. “Ms. Jenkins, Mr. Lopez just sent over the contract. He said you’re in charge of the project.”
