His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 33: The Person Ran Away 

When the rest of the Harrisons arrived a few minutes later, they found Seth holding a black trench coat in his right hand.As he stood there, he had a sad expression on his face.

Someone bravely stepped forward and asked, "Seth, did the person run away?"

Seth was speechless, he could see the sad truth staring him in the face.He glanced at the fake chip on the ground as if it was mocking him.

This was the first time he had felt so defeated.

But even So, a strange smile still appeared on his gloomy face.

When the rest of the Harrisons who had been supporting him for years saw his fake smile, they were all filled with dread.

They had never seen him get this mad before.

And they were aware that the more composed he was, the angrier he was.

The fact that he could smile like that indicated that he was very furious.

They were all aware that someone was going to get into some serious trouble this time.

However, no one knew who that person would be.

"Seal this place as quickly as possible.We're not going to let him just disappear like that", Seth commanded his men.

"Yes, Sir!" his crew responded in unison.

They immediately moved and secured the entire Brooklyn City.

Even as the night wore on, the Brooklyn City dance floor remained packed.

Numerous black-clothed men moved around the area as if they were in search of someone.

Melody was able to get access to the party room via the bathroom's ventilation system.

When she was done, she re-attached the lid of the ventilation hole and walked away as if nothing had happened.

She changed her clothes quickly and stood in front of the mirror calmly to fix herself.

After a few minutes, she had transformed to her best appearance.

After fixing herself up, Melody took off the micro-earphone hanging on her ear and threw it into the toilet behind her.

Once she was settled, she opened the bathroom door and walked out.

Melody moved towards the exit, ignoring the crowd and the deafening music from the dance floor.

But when she reached the door, she was stopped by a security guard who explained to her politely that she was not allowed to leave the premises yet.

"I'm sorry, Miss.But we can't allow anyone to leave for the time being.Something has happened, and an investigation is currently ongoing.We do apologize for the inconvenience this will cause you." the guard told her respectfully.

Melody cast a nasty look at the security guard.

Her cold eyes were really terrifying that the man became completely stunned.

The security guard was frozen by Melody's expression, so he couldn't do anything to stop her from leaving.

But before she could get out, someone shouted, "Stop!"

A sharp voice echoed from behind, and a few hurried footsteps followed.

The atmosphere around them became tense as if something big was about to happen.

Hearing this, Melody stopped and turned around.

She saw Austin rushing towards her along with a few people.

Austin was surprised when he saw that the woman was Melody but acknowledged her afterward, "Miss Melody".

Seth arrived at the scene a minute later.

He was wearing a black shirt with two buttons undone.

His bronze-colored skin was faintly discernible and he was extremely charming in his outfit.

Austin led his men to stand on both sides, and they bowed in respect to Seth.

Seth slowly approached Melody.

He lowered his face and looked at her from top to bottom.

There was a hint of doubt in his cold eyes.

His handsome face frowned slightly and asked her, "How did you get in here?"

Melody's expression was cold and empty as he looked at the people surrounding her.

"If Seth is allowed here, why am I not?" she finally answered in an icy tone.

"Melody, don't forget that you are still considered to be my fiancée!"

Seth lowered his eyes and raised his eyebrows.

When Melody heard the word 'fiancée; a smirk appeared between her brows.

Melody remained mute and expressionless, so Seth decided not to argue with her anymore.

"It's getting late.I'll send you back." Seth declared.

"No need."

Melody rejected him straightforward, embarrassing him in front of everyone.

The rest of the Harrison Family were all covered in a cold sweat upon witnessing the scene.

This young lady was too bold and this was the first time in their lives that they have seen someone who had the guts to reject the heir of their family.

Furthermore, she did it in public.

Austin's expression became ugly upon hearing Melody''s words. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

In his mind, Melody was really ungrateful and didn't know how to appreciate favors.

He thought that Seth would be angry, but he didn't expect him to actually extend his hand towards him.

'Does he need weapons?' Austin thought, confused about what Seth was asking for.

He was aware that Melody made a mistake, but he was certain that there was no need to resort to violence at this time.

They just needed to teach her a lesson.

Austin was a little hesitant with the ideas running on his mind.

The expression on Seth's face darkened as he realized Austin hadn't responded.

"What are you waiting for? Give me the car keys!"

"Oh, right!" Austin reacted in a daze.

He quickly took out the car keys and handed them over immediately.He expected Seth to give Melody a lesson, but Austin had no idea that he would drive her home himself.He had no idea what was going on; nothing made sense to Austin right now.

After receiving the car keys, Seth went to Melody's side.

"Let's go.I'll drive you home." Seth urged her.

Melody looked at Seth with a displeased expression.She had just rejected him in public.Did he really have no pride? Seth continued to force down his words before she could respond.

"Get in the car.We can talk about your concerns during the trip," he added lightly.

Melody originally planned to go home by herself, but she changed her mind after hearing Seth's plan.

Since he insisted, might as well allow him to do what he wanted.

After all, this was a good opportunity for them to clear things up.

Seth waved his hand to Melody and looked at her casually, "Can we go now?" he asked in a deep and magnetic voice.

Melody adored people with good voices, and she had to admit that Seth was one of them.

Seeing her nod in agreement, Seth started walking out and Melody followed him.

The other Harrison family members remained in their positions clueless for quite some time.

They couldn't understand what just happened.

They never imagined seeing their family heir involved with a woman, let alone do this much for one.

It was really a rare sight.

Melody boarded Seth's car.

She initially thought that he would have the latest and coolest supercar, but she didn't expect him to have a black Maybach.

It was low-key but still luxurious.

It didn't match his age, but she liked it.

Melody was not a fan of supercars.

Motorcycles were her favorite mode of transportation especially if she wanted to showcase speed.

The car galloped in the wind, unbridled and ostentatious.

Seth was driving very fast.

While Melody was sitting in the car with her eyes slightly narrowed.

There was no expression on her indifferent face.

Seth occasionally looked at his rearview mirror to check on her.

He was aware that although Melody had her eyes closed, she was also looking at him.

Suddenly, Melody opened her eyes.

It was black and shiny but was as sharp as a hawk's eye, "What are your conditions? Why don't you start telling me?" she spoke ina casual tone.

"Answer me!" she ordered him.

Seth nodded in agreement while his lips curled into a wicked smile.

Melody calmly sat in the back seat, waiting for Seth to speak.

She wanted to see what conditions he could offer.
