A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

Chapter 3231-3240

Janets voice trembled with tears.

Struggling to speak, she managed, Melissa Shawn He..

Melissa sensed something was wrong. Take your time. Breathe. Tell me whats going on.

Janet broke down, saying between sobs, Shawns messed up big time! Can you come over, Melissa? Without hesitation, Melissa reassured her, Im on my way! She grabbed her car keys and dashed out of the office.

The job offer letter remained on her desk Thirty minutes later.

Marcus, wrapping up a meeting nearby, decided to swing by Melissas office for coffee.

However, he learned from the secretary that Melissa had left earlier.

Marcus, with a soft tone, expressed, Do you mind if I wait for her here? He was not just the head honcho at Fowler Group, but also Melissas boyfriend.

The assistant hesitated, deciding not to intervene as Marcus strolled into Melissas office curiously.

Inside Melissas office.

Taking a quick look around, Marcus gaze landed on the letter.

He picked it up delicately, scanning its contents.

Ah, it seemed Melissa had earned herself another promotion! Meanwhile, Melissa drove back to her old apartment, where Shawn and his family were staying now.

As she entered, she found Julie consoling Janet.

Janet looked lost. Spotting Melissa, she croaked, Im sorry to bother you, Melissa. But I really didnt know who else to turn to.

Melissa reached out, comforting her immediately.

Wiping her tears, Julie turned to Melissa, explaining, Shawns been on a roll lately with his business. I warned him not to get too cocky, but he never listens. He thought he hit the jackpot with some merchandise, worth millions, but it got ruined in the rain during transportation!

Now, those clients wont deal with him unless he compensates them! Im not sorry for him. Just for Janet and Yvonne! Julie exclaimed with frustration.

She wished Shawn would work hard and ear some honest money to support his family. Melissa had cautioned him countless times but he had always brushed it off.

Now, he was deep in trouble Hearing Julies words, Melissa was stunned. That was a hefty sum.

It equaled her yearly earnings. And she wouldnt get her hands on it until year-end.

After pondering, Melissa suggested, It looks like weve got no choice but to sell the apartment.

But the apartment wasnt fully paid off. After settling the mortgage and gathering her cash, she would only have around four to five million dollars.

That was nowhere near enough! Julie and Janet objected to Melissa taking on the debt. It was all Shawns fault, they argued.

They couldnt let Melissa shoulder it.

In the end, they both broke down in tears.

Meanwhile, Melissa resolved herself.

couldnt abandon them.

Soon, Melissa contacted an agent and listed the apartment online.

Due to the relatively low price, potential buyers flooded in. Melissa had to stick around for house viewings Eventually, she sold the apartment at a bargain that very night.

But Janet refused to move into the villa.

Melissa had to find a rental for them.

In the evening, Shawn called, sounding anxious. He hinted that if he didnt cough up the cash, they were going to come after him Shawn used to be a smooth-talker but now fear laced his every word.

He even broke down on the line.

What do we do? If something happens to Shawn, what about Yvonne and me?

Janet burst into tears once more.

The person on the other end snatched the phone and spoke icily.

Your man slept with my woman! He also tried to mess up my business.

Hes lucky Im only taking one of his hands! Turns out he was duped by that woman. Shes got another man! Melissa was floored by the revelation.

Janet went pale with shock, while Julie also felt humiliated.

Thanks to Shawns actions, their future looked bleak! When Melissa got back to the villa, it was late. She returned alone.

Yvonne ran into her arms as soon as she entered.

The little girl sobbed. Aunt Melissal Is Daddy going to die?

Gently patting her head, Melissa asked, How do you know about that? Yvonne, tears streaming down her cheeks, blurted out, Mom rang, wanting to fetch me, but Uncle Marcus turned her down.

Melissa glanced up, spotting Marcus by the doorway.
