My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 1239

Blaine's face fell as he asked again, "Who's your boyfriend?"

Melody replied with a smile, "He should be on the way here. You can hang around a little longer if you'd like to meet him."

...

Nash came to the 18th floor as per Melody's location link.

A banner with the words 'Stone Group' was hung at the entrance of the office studio.

Two black men dressed in black suits stood guard at the entrance. They were around 190cm tall.

Nash sensed a kind of special energy emanating from them, so he deduced they were skilled martial artists from overseas.

He could not figure out who they were protecting. Deciding not to dwell upon it, he walked briskly into the office.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Calcraft," Tina greeted Nash with a smile while filling a cup of water from the water dispenser.

Nash returned the smile and said, "Yeah, I'm here to see Melody!"

Tina shot him a weird look as she said, "Oh wow, perfect timing! She's in her office."

Slightly puzzled at her words, Nash decided to let it slide. He headed into the office.

…

Meanwhile, Blaine had just calmed himself down from the surprise he got when Melody told him she had a boyfriend. He reasoned it was perfectly normal for Melody to have a boyfriend, given she was already 28 years old.

He knew it would be irrational to think she would keep waiting for him after all these years.

However, now that he was back in Xanthalos, he felt Melody should reconsider him as a potential partner. He had become a better version of himself, after all.

With this thought in mind, Blaine blurted out, "Why don't you break up with him? I can give you a better life than him!"

Amused at his way of thinking, Melody laughed and said bluntly, "Excuse me? Aren't you the boss of a company with a net worth of 300 billion? I can't believe you're still so immature!"

'What's with his ego? Does he think money is all women ever care about? When have I ever needed to depend on a man for financial support?' she thought.
