His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Lance was the most astonished one.He wasn't expecting to see Seth there.But then Lance realized that he wasn't mistaken after all about that day.

Seth indeed owned the car that he saw.

However, this only meant that Seth and Melody might know each other.

Lance was now certain that his mind was not playing tricks on him, that what he saw was real.

Melody turned around and spotted Seth.

Iven was standing behind him.

She frowned, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

The place suddenly became too narrow, and an air of mock discomfort cut across it.

Melody just stared, but her mouth remained zipped.Seth noticed her displeasure and began speaking.

A hint of gentleness could still be traced in his voice despite the coldness it was trying to convey.

"You're not allowed to drink!"

As soon as the words came out of Seth's mouth, everyone stiffened, and the atmosphere had suddenly become tense.

Everyone on the table knew about Melody's temper.

But they, first and foremost, were aware of the fact that this woman sitting with them couldn't tolerate anyone who was trying to get a hold of her, to control her, to overpower her.

Melody was the type of girl who wouldn't backtrack against her enemy.

And this man standing behind her must have no idea what he was up to.

Perhaps he had a death wish.

His handsome features and act of bravado couldn't save him from the inevitable danger he was walking into.

Ilven noticed the uneasiness on the table.

He sensed a serious discomfort radiating between them, so he tried to lighten it up by speaking.

"Hey, Melody! What a coincidence? We're here to eat.I've heard they served the best pizza here, aren't they?"

He began.

"And honestly! We didn't expect to see you here.Wow!" He said with a smile.

"Since we're all here, why don't we eat together?"

After saying that, lven pulled out two chairs without waiting for the other party to reply.He offered the other chair to Seth, which he ignored.

Instead, Seth glanced at the man sitting next to Melody.

His eyes were icy cold.

Clifford, who was sitting next to Melody, felt the burning stares of the man, so he immediately stood up to give up his seat.

It was a subconscious decision.
