Hope It's Not Too Late to Love

Chapter 230

Even so, this mysterious man would always be the one who gave Melanie a way out whenever she encountered any kind of trouble.

Five years ago, this man had been the one who told her about what happened between Vania and Hanson.

This was how she managed to find Vania, seize two children from her, and use them to stay by Hanson's side.

To this day, she did not know who that man was or why he gave such information to her, and why he delivered her to Hanson's side.

She also had no idea how the man managed to stop Hanson from finding out the truth about that night.

What was his goal? Melanie could not make head or tail of the situation. Why would that man be so well-informed about everything that happened?

However, she could not dwell on this right now. The most important thing now was to attend the celebratory dinner and meet Hanson.

Melanie rushed downstairs and took the invite before saying to Josie, "Mom, can you find a way to get some money from Dad? I want to buy a new gown."

"Why do you want to buy a new gown? Aren't you going to wear what you wore when you two first met to stir his memories?" Josie waited for Melanie's answer.

"He has probably already forgotten all about our first meeting. I want to wear a style I've never worn before today and show up in front of him in a whole new light." In Melanie's mind, she could already picture the scene.

Josie nodded and agreed to her request. "I'll get you that money. Oh, by the way, how have you been getting along with the piano?"

Melanie was confident that she could play the song well, so she said, "Don't worry, Mom. I've practiced it countless times. I'm ready."

"Great."

Once Melanie got the money from Josie, she went to her favorite boutique to buy an incredibly sexy gown. She had never worn such a daring gown before.

After changing into her new gown, she made sure her makeup was immaculate before rushing over to Hammond International Hotel without further ado.

Inside the hotel, many guests had arrived for the celebratory dinner.

Melanie hurriedly handed her invite over at the entrance, and once the guards checked that it was valid, she rushed in out of fear that someone might recognize her. She kept walking with her head bowed and did not dare to catch anyone's eye.

She walked to a corner and chose the most discreet seat possible before sitting down in wait for the

right moment.

Melanie kept a close watch on the entrance. She wanted to see Hanson, who she had not seen in a long time, and she wanted to see if Vania came with him.

Just as Melanie was occupied with all these thoughts, she heard a voice beside her ring out. "Nice to meet you. May I have a drink with you?"

At first, Melanie feared that someone had recognized her, but now that she realized it was an unfamiliar voice, she looked up at the man in front of her.

She found that the man was studying her carefully. He seemed like a man in his thirties with average looks. There was nothing about him that stood out at all.

His eyes were curious, but she did not see anything else in his gaze, so she did not know what his intentions were.

Melanie frowned, but a thought flashed across her mind. Anyone who managed to score an invite to this event would not be someone ordinary.

Therefore, she smiled and raised the wine glass in front of her. "Of course." NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

The man clinked his glass with hers before taking a sip of wine. He smiled and gave a simple introduction. "Hi, my name is Chris Jonas. I'm a manager at Epic Media Inc."
