His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 209: I Don't Lack Money 

Melody looked back with an emotionless but intimidating expression.She slowly replied with a cold voice.

"I don't lack money!"

As if to clarify, she added, "Besides, have you decided whether you'll protect your son or not?"

At this point, Jeremy finally understood Melody's intentions.And she was unexpectedly more powerful than he thought.

In just a few minutes, she had managed to cut off his company's financial sources.

Even the most powerful and important project partners contacted Jeremy, requesting to unilaterally cancel their cooperation.

If all of these were really happening, then the Wyne family was finished.

Melody's hand on Mrs.Wyne’s throat tightened, causing the latter to let out a whimper.

It was her way of telling Jeremy that she could and Mrs.Wyne if she wanted.

Seeing his wife look at him in fear, Jeremy panicked.His forehead was covered in cold sweat.He reflexively shouted with a trembling voice, "Miss Sullivan, let's discuss this again!"

But it seemed like it wasn’t the answer Melody wanted.She did not even look at Jeremy as her legs started to move and walk away.

Jeremy was about to take a step in an attempt to go over and stop her.

However, he met with Johnson's gaze, frightening Jeremy to take a step back.He was a ruthless person! The anxious secretary, who was fortunately quick-witted, signaled to Jeremy.

Seeing the secretary's gesture, Jeremy immediately understood what it meant and quickly reacted.He raised his leg and aimed it at Jack.

Jack, who originally stood on the side with a confused look, received a kick to the back of his knees, causing him to lose his balance and forcibly kneel in front of Melody.

Melody stopped.

Jeremy hurriedly went in front of her in an ingratiating manner.He patted Jack and politely apologized to Melody.

"Miss Sullivan, please give us another chance!"

Jack finally saw the severity of the matter so he didn't say anything, letting his father scold him.

For the first time in his life, he saw his father acting servile.

Jeremy even acted shamelessly.

Not only did he repeatedly plead for himself, but he also dragged Amiel to help him.

"Amiel, don't you have a good relationship with Miss Sullivan? Please say something on my behalf.Maybe we can have a further discussion, right?"

Amiel cursed Jeremy in his heart when he heard his name come out of Jeremy's mouth.

Earlier, he was dissed for being too nosy but, now, the former was begging him to interfere! Did he think that he was his subordinate who he could order left and right? Luckily, he did not help this group of people bully Melody.

Otherwise, the Parry family would have been implicated as well.

Now that he had completely decided to cut off all ties with the Wyne family, he would not help them anymore.

Amiel reluctantly looked at Jeremy, "Sorry, Uncle.Miss Sullivan and I aren't close.My words hold no weight."

He purposely lowered his attitude and acted humble.

Jeremy knew that his son's words probably offended Amiel so the latter had lost the will to help them even just for a little bit.

Jeremy could only turn back to Melody and continue begging her for another chance.The tables had turned more than once and everyone's focus was on a few people.

No one noticed that there were three people standing in the corner, silently watching everything closely.

If Johnson did not make a move earlier, Austin would've rushed over instead.

Amiel sent lven a message about the current situation.

After knowing that it was related to Melody, Iven immediately informed Seth.

They drove to the location as fast as they could and were met with the scene of Jeremy using his bodyguards to deal with Melody.

Austin was about to help Melody but Johnson appeared before he could do anything.So in the end, he did not go anymore.

When Iven saw Johnson's face, Iven thought it was familiar and tried to search his memories.

Suddenly, he exclaimed, "Aha! Isn't this the man who Melody previously dealt with in Minx? So he is Melody's subordinate? That's good."

After he finished speaking, he had a proud expression on his face.

As a result, Seth ruthlessly glared at him.

lven instantly retracted his proud expression.

Austin who was standing at the side asked in a low voice.

"Sir, should we go over now?"

Seth's cold eyes were glued to Melody.

Although Seth didn’t reply, Austin already understood that Seth had no intention to go over.

At least, not for now. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

They continued watching from their spot.

On the other end...

Amidst Jeremy's repeated pleading, Melody finally responded.

She looked down at Jeremy and coldly asked, "So you regret it now? Alright, I'll let you talk."

Melody's words gave Jeremy hope.He quickly nodded without thinking.

"Miss Sullivan, thanks for this opportunity.If you have any conditions, feel free to say them.As long as you let the Wyne family go, I'll agree to anything."

Melody briskly agreed, "Sure!"

A smile hung on her lips but her eyes were frighteningly cold.It was impossible to meet her eyes.

"The conditions are simple.Earlier, it was just two legs but now, I want to add one hand."

Jeremy felt like a bucket of cold water was poured over his head.

His hopeful look faded and was replaced with a fearfully surprised look.

Melody's expression remained the same, a cold smile across her face.

She said, "I suffered a loss but I'm still going to leave you with your left hand."

Jack panicked and wanted to escape but Jeremy noticed that and held him back.

Right now, he didn’t care about anything anymore.

Helpless, he could only cry loudly.

"Father, aren't I your favorite child? You want to sacrifice me but I don’t want to be disabled! I don't want to!"

His face was gradually filled with snot and tears, making him look more pathetic and ridiculous.

An incomparable pain also surged in Jeremy's heart.

After all, his son was right.He was indeed his favorite child.

How could he bear to see him crippled? However, he still couldn't let his son go.

After all, it might cause the Wyne family's downfall.

Everything they had was now gone and those who they had offended would surely take advantage of this opportunity to give them trouble.

At that time, the entire Wyne family would be buried along with them.

The secretary who stood on the side reminded Jeremy in a low voice, "Sir Wyne, if you have to break it, quickly do it!"

In the end, Jeremy was still someone who had seen a lot of the world.

After hearing what his secretary said, his eyes lit up.

He gritted his teeth and decisively pushed his son closer to Melody.

His voice trembled as he spoke, "I hope you keep your word!"

Melody didn't answer and simply stared at Jack who was still crying and trembling on the ground.

Jack still wanted to run.

Unfortunately, Johnson had trapped him.

Melody turned around, exchanged glances with Sarah, and gestured.She wanted Sarah to take care of Jack, this bastard, with her own hands.

Sarah subconsciously ducked back upon seeing Melody's eyes.Her little sister's eyes were terrifyingly cold that she felt afraid.

Tyrone who stood beside Sarah was also trembling in fear.

Only now did he realize how true Sarah's words were when she said that Melody wasn't cold to them at all.

At the least, compared to the Melody he was seeing now, the usual Melody he knew was like a warm spring breeze.

Actually, she was as warm as fire! Melody sneered after seeing Sarah subconsciously retreat from fear.She thought, ‘‘Since my sister doesn't want to stain her hands with blood, then I'll do it"

Whoever dared to touch her would have to pay the price.

Melody took two steps forward and opened the trunk of her car.

There was a set of golf clubs inside.She pulled out one.

The silver golf club shone under the moonlight.

Seeing it in Melody's hands made people feel like the golf club was as scary as a cold sharp knife.

Melody gently waved it a few times.

‘‘It's quite convenient"

In a dashing manner, she casually dragged the golf club and approached Jack.

Her posture was relaxed as if she was about to play golf.

But when Jack looked at her eyes, he was so scared that he almost peed his pant.It was so terrible.

The look in her eyes was so scary! The gleaming golf club was like a cold sword in Melody's hands.She swung it down but stopped mid-air.

Jack kept shaking his head left and right, begging for mercy.

"No, no! Please, I beg you.No!"

His voice already went hoarse from shouting with all his might.

Melody sneered, "I heard that you like prostitutes and high-end escorts? Let me help you!"

The golf club was raised high before being forcefully swung down.

An ear-piercing scream accompanied the fall of the gold club.

"Argh!"
