Spoiled by Mr. Russell novel Chapter 298

Frank mocked her, but Melanie ignored it and got straight to the point. “I’m here with a business proposal.”

“A business proposal? You?” Frank snickered, unconvinced. “If I remember correctly, you don’t have enough money to talk business with me. Besides, what kind of deal could you offer? You haven’t even been able to fulfill your last promise.”

He was losing patience with her. If this were the old Melanie, she would have lowered her voice and tried to coax him or even begged him. This time, though, she was already over her head, so there was nothing to lose.

Melanie replied, “You didn’t keep your word, either. You promised to help me enter this year’s perfume championship and win the trophy. However, the formula you gave me had several flaws!”

“I’ve already settled that for you, haven’t I? What more do you want?” Frank questioned her heatedly.

“Right, you settled that, but you’ve also ruined me! Now that Nathaniel knows about us, he doesn’t want me anymore. He’s even kicked me out of MN Inc.! How can I enter the championship now? How am I supposed to build a career in the perfume industry? This was all your fault!” She accused Frank furiously.

Frank smiled calmly in the face of her wrath. “Mel, how could you say that? What we did was consensual, no? Speaking of my promise, didn’t I already give you the formula? Using that formula, you’re qualified for the championship. Besides, I’ve heard that MN Inc. had already handed in their registration form, which was approved. We only need to wait for the judges to evaluate. If Nathaniel won’t use your name for this, that’s his problem. You should look for him, not me.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll settle things with Nate once and for all. However, I’ve done so much for you. Shouldn’t you at least give me something in return?” Melanie said.

Frank looked at her with a smirk, “What do you want from me?”

Frank was well-known in the industry. She was not exactly sure what status he held abroad, but she was pretty sure he was still qualified to attend this event.

He lifted his hand and put out his cigarette, “You’re right. I’m qualified, and I’ve also received their invitation. Why should I bring you along? Give me one good reason.”

“I know Lily will attend,” Melanie paused, “It’s difficult to lay a finger on her within these borders, but it’s a different story abroad. I could help you seek revenge and ensure she won’t get away!”

Frank glanced at her as he calculated whether the deal was worth it. It was indeed a tempting offer to him. After a while, he decided, “Deal!”
