My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL)
Chapter 644 Not Innocent At All

Of course, Lucien also knew that he couldn't get away from there. So he stood there and watched Melanie as she walked towards him with a smile on her face indifferently.

Cameron's words had been ruthless enough on the phone before, but he didn't expect her to be so shameless. She just kept tackling him as if nothing had happened. Lucien was really annoyed by Melanie like never before.

Although he didn't have any ambiguous feelings for Melanie, he used to treat her as an innocent and lovely sister. Now, he didn't even know what he had in his mind before. How could he think that Melanie was innocent and lovely?

She was clearly not innocent at all.

She clearly took advantage of his indulgent attitude towards her and made an untimely request to come to Riverside City.

She was confident that he would continue to take care of her and fulfill her requirement. So she was desperate to get in the entertainment industry, and deliberately worked for Nina's opponent Allstar. She knew that Cameron and Nina were married, and she knew that he had a good relationship with Cameron. But she still made such a decision. This indicated that she intentionally wanted him to turn against Cameron.

After all, if he still indulged her with money and support her development in the entertainment industry like before, he would definitely stand on the opposite side of Cameron and Nina. Isn't this the case of turning against him?

Lucien realized this and was shocked for a moment.

Melanie came over, took his arm affectionately, and said with a bright smile, "Lucien, didn't you say you have other thing to do tonight?"

She was saying this to implicate that since he had attended this banquet, how could he refuse to be her male companion.

Complaining against him in front of his business associates, this would made him seemed so cruel...

Lucien pulled his arm out of Melanie's hand, flicked his cuff, and said gently, "It was my original plan to attend this banquet, and you didn't tell me that you would come too."

Melanie was choked up by him for a moment. She could only glance at him aggrievedly.

A manager who Lucien planned to talk to looked at Melanie curiously and asked Lucien, "This is...?"

"I'm his—" Melanie opened her mouth and wanted to say that she was his mentor's daughter, trying to take advantage of this relationship with Lucien to get closer to these upper-class people.

However, before she could say anything, Lucien interrupted her gently, "This is a friend I met abroad."

He didn't even say Melanie's name. Obviously, he had no intention of introducing Melanie to them.

Melanie was ready to be introduced to these socialites by him. The smile on her face was originally wide and bright. But at this moment, the smile can't be held up anymore. Her whole person was awkwardly frozen in place and didn't know what to do.

Lucien ignored her and turned around to chat with the socialites, leaving Melanie alone with a pale face.

Melanie came here with her agent Rebecca Young. When she called Lucien to ask him to accompany her to the party before, she was rejected and satirized by Cameron. Rebecca has been looked down upon her since then.

Rebecca had been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and she could certainly notice that Lucien and Cameron had changed their attitude towards Melanie.

Rebecca was frustrated and pissed. She worked with Melanie simply because they could make use of the wealth and power of Lucien and Cameron. But now Lucien and Cameron have made it clear that they want to get rid of Melanie, then what's the point of agenting Melanie?

Except for the financial support, Melanie had no advantage in the entertainment industry in any way.

In other words, without Lucien's financial support, Melanie was a bum deal for Rebecca.

Rebecca got angry at Melanie on the spot, "Didn't you say that Lucien doted on you? Didn't you say that he could do anything for you? Why wasn't he even willing to accompany you to the banquet?" Melanie was also aggrieved. She didn't expect to be treated like this by Lucien.

So she said with red eyes, "He must have misunderstood me because of some reasons I don't know. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so indifferent to me."

"Didn't you say that he had gone to Hazelton with Cameron? It must be Nina who defile me in his face. It must be Nina and Cameron who sow discord and now he is ignoring me."

Melanie made a cross in front of chest and assured Rebecca, "Don't worry. Rebecca, I'll definitely make him invest in me."

Rebecca warned her angrily, "Melanie, you know very well the reason why I signed you. If you can't win over Lucien or whatever investor it is, then you have to use my way to draw investments for the company."

In fact, Melanie had never experienced social laboring before, so she didn't understand Rebecca 's original routine at all, so she asked inexplicably, "Use your way to draw investment? What way?" Rebecca sneered, looked her up and down with her arms crossed, and then announced ruthlessly, "My way is, you use your own body in exchange for investments. You have to sleep with every man as I demand!"

Rebecca's words were thunders striking on her head. Melanie's face turned even paler on the spot.

She had never experienced anything like this in her entire life!

She had been coddled by the family ever since she grown up. She had never been bullied at all, and no one could use anything to force her to sacrifice her virginity. This was no small deal.

Rebecca noticed her fear and unwillingness. But she continued cruelly, "Don't forget, that you have signed a contract with the company. You have to do it if you don't want to, otherwise how should the company support you?"

When Rebecca mentioned the contract, Melanie immediately came back to her senses. She grabbed Rebecca's arm and said, "Terminate the contract, I want to terminate the contract!" Rebecca unceremoniously shook off her hand, "Terminate the contract? Well, you can do it."

Rebecca casually played with her bright red nails, "Everything is written clearly in the contract. Liquidated damages need to be paid for termination of the contract. And that's no small sum."

And at that time, she thought that since Lucien doted on Melanie so much, he might not agree with Melanie's entry into the entertainment industry. Maybe he would want to terminate the contract for Melanie. So, she deliberately wrote a much higher amount of liquidated damages, thinking that she might be able to corrupt Lucien.

Now that Melanie wanted to use her own money or her parents' money to pay the liquidated damages. This could be extremely painful for them.

Melanie's face turned pale. She staggered and took a step back. She had just wanted to get in the industry at that time. She didn't notice anything about liquidated damages. Now...

Rebecca rolled eyes at her and said, "What are you panicking about? Don't you still have a chance to win over Lucien? As long as you can get his investments, you don't have to do such terrible things." Melanie breathed a sigh of relief when Rebecca said this.

Yes, she still had a chance. She didn't believe that Lucien would suddenly ignore her. Even more, she didn't believe that Lucien would watch her step into hell. She rekindled her spirit.

Rebecca added, "I'll take you to tonight's banquet first, so that you can see those men you will serve in the future if you failed this time."

So just before Lucien came in, Melanie was being dragged by Rebecca to meet those fat old men. Looking at their squinting eyes, Melanie felt nauseated.0000
