Chapter 232 (Part Two)
"Mrs. Fannie, if you really have the ability, why don't you come to me?" "Are you a person who bullies the weak and fears the strong? Just because I'm a stubborn stone, don't you dare to confront me face to face?" Said Melissa coldly.
However, Mrs. Fannie casually dialed the internal phone and called, "Miss Yang, see the guest out!"
Secretary Yang came in soon and invited Melissa out.
Looking at Mrs. Fannie, Melissa was very angry, but she could only bear it and said to Secretary Yang, "There's no need. I'll go myself!" Then she walked out of Mrs. Fannie's office.
On the way, Melissa was very angry. She really didn't understand why there was such a mother. Mrs. Fannie was so mean to Colin. She never considered his feelings, but only used him as a tool to seize property! Perhaps Colin was not born out of her love for her child, but just used it as a bargaining chip for family property. No wonder Colin didn't like her and even called her name directly. It was hard to imagine what kind of family Colin grew up in. There were so many brothers and sisters in the Ling Group. His father didn't like him, and his mother only used him. He had spent his childhood, youth, and even youth in such an environment. No wonder he was so extreme in love.
All of a sudden, Melissa felt sorry for Colin. She felt sorry for him as he was born in such a family, and at the same time, she felt sorry for Fannie. Such a selfish mother would suffer the pain of family affection in her old age!
However, at the same time, Melissa was also worried about her parents. Mrs. Fannie was not kidding her. She knew that such a woman must do what she said, especially at such a critical moment. Mrs. Fannie would not let her family go.
What should she do to make sure that her family wouldn't be affected by her?
"Colin……" "Colin……" The more Melissa called his name, the more difficult it was for her to continue to fall in love with and be with him. She felt that there was a thread between her and him. She wanted to tie up with him, but she was afraid that the thread would be broken if it was too tight. But if she stayed away from him, she was afraid that the thread would be broken. If she held the thread in her hand, she would not be able to find it even if a gust of wind blew over one day. She just grabbed the thread and didn't know what to do.
As if being telepathized by her, Colin suddenly called. Seeing that it was his number, Melissa sighed and picked it up.
"Hello." Said Melissa first.
However, there was no response from the other end of the phone for a long time. Although Melissa could only hear the breath of Colin, she could not hear his voice. The atmosphere was very strange, so she asked him again, "Where are you? Are you coming to see me?"
She still remembered that he was going to take her to apply for the marriage license. Although Mrs. Fannie interrupted her halfway, it didn't affect the time. She also thought that she should make her worries clear to him and tell him that she couldn't get married, because things were more complicated now. They couldn't get married in a hurry before a lot of things were settled.
Colin finally opened his mouth, but his tone was very light and heavy, as if he was in a bad mood. He said, "Come with me to the seaside."
Noticing that something was wrong with him, Melissa asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I'm by the sea now. Come here." "I'll wait for you at XXXX."
Melissa wanted to ask more, because she felt that his behavior was too abnormal, but she was afraid that he would think of the marriage, so she didn't ask anything. She just said, "Okay, I'll be there soon."
Colin hung up the phone without saying anything more. What he did made Melissa feel even strange. She thought facing the phone for a while and finally came to the conclusion that Colin must be abnormal! But she still rushed to the seaside.
It was a short beach with a bad view, so there were few people. Only the boats floating near the shore represented that the fishermen would come from here. Sitting alone on the big reef on the shore, Colin slightly leaned forward and put his hand on his knees. His ten fingers intertwined and twisted in an irregular way, as if he was in a very complicated mood. He looked up at the sea, his hair in a mess, and his eyes unconsciously showed a melancholy.
Melissa came over and said, "What's wrong with you?" "Why did you come to such a remote place? I almost couldn't find you."
Colin reached out his hand to her. As long as Melissa held his hand, she climbed up the reef under his guidance, found a place to sit with him, and asked, "Are you in a bad mood?"
With a faint smile, Colin turned to look at the sea and said, "Nothing."
In fact, there was something on Melissa's mind, but in front of him, her mind didn't seem to be more complicated than his, because she rarely saw Colin show this…… He looked at a loss, as if something very important had really happened that he could not solve. According to Colin's character, if something happened to him, he wouldn't sit here in a daze like a hesitant boy. Instead, he had already thought of a way to deal with it. Unless the matter was really serious, he couldn't control it.
So Melissa's eyes became melancholy. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "I know you well. You can't hide anything from me. If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Colin turned around and smiled at her. He held her hand and said, "Are you particularly unwilling to get the marriage license today?"
Melissa lowered her head and felt a little ashamed. Something came to her mind again and she didn't know how to answer it. She could only turn her eyes away and stare at a place on the ground, avoiding eye contact with him in silence.
Colin still held her hand tightly and said, "You don't have to be embarrassed. I thought for a while. We……" "Don't get married so soon!"
This time, it was Melissa who was surprised. She looked up at him and saw his unnatural smile. She was more sure that she was uneasy. She put Colin's hands back and said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Colin pulled her into his arms and put his arms around her waist to make her lean on his shoulder. Then he pointed at the sea and said, "That kind of fishing boat is very interesting. I haven't done that kind of boat before." "Do you want to take a boat? How about we take a boat for a while?"
Leaning against his shoulder, Melissa said worriedly, "Colin, I don't like you to be indecisive. It's not like you at all." "Why do you suddenly say that you don't want to get married? You won't give up because I'm hesitating!"
