Chapter 702 Eleanor Apologizes on Behalf of Maggie
Melissa said, "Dad, with such hot news just coming out, if we go back now, it will make things difficult for Maggie."
Mark, realizing the truth of this, asked, "So what should we do?"
"Just find someone to delete those posts, there's no need to dwell on it," Melissa said. "But we can't just leave like this. Over time, people will naturally forget about it."
Mark looked at Melissa and asked, "How many orders did you take yesterday? Don't think I don't know why you followed me here. The Jackson Group is going to be ruined by you and your brother."
Melissa smiled and sat down on the sofa opposite Mark, still looking as obedient as ever.
"Dad, when I was in the hospital, you often bought me all kinds of gifts. You said I was your beloved little princess. Why do you have such a big problem with me and my brother now?"
Melissa smiled again, "Dad, why can't you just enjoy yourself? My brother and I have grown up. You should be enjoying life now."
Although she was smiling, there was no warmth in her expression.
In her heart, she didn't see Mark as a father, nor did she feel any familial affection.
As long as she could achieve her goals, she was willing to calculate and sacrifice anything.
Mark sneered and shook his head, "Melissa, you're still young. Don't think that just because you've achieved a little, you're the best in the world. You still have a lot to learn."
Hearing this, Melissa's face didn't look too good, but it was only for a moment. The displeasure on her face quickly disappeared, and she was smiling again, "Dad, you're right. I will definitely learn well from those seniors."
These words made Mark feel uncomfortable.
She used to be such an obedient and well-behaved daughter. Now he couldn't see through her at all. He didn't know what thoughts were hidden behind that fake mask.
Mark, angry, stood up and said, "I'm going to Sunset Hills to see Maggie. Do whatever you want."
Melissa also stood up and said, "Okay, Dad, please explain to Maggie for me. Tell her not to overthink it. I didn't do those things online."
Mark ignored Melissa and went out directly.
After he left, Melissa's smile disappeared, and her expression instantly became terrifying.
At that moment, Eleanor called. Seeing the caller ID, Melissa curled her lips in satisfaction. After answering the call, her tone immediately changed, "Eleanor, what's up?"
"Melissa, which hotel are you staying at? I'll come over and take you out for lunch. Maggie was thoughtless to arrange for you to stay at a hotel, and I feel bad about it," Eleanor called specifically to express her concern.
Eleanor felt very sorry for Melissa, thinking she had it tough and was pitiful—sick and disliked by Maggie, yet still wholeheartedly helping her brother manage the company.
Melissa smiled and said, "Eleanor, I'm staying at the Regal Gardens Hotel."
An hour later.
In the lounge area of the hotel lobby.
Melissa ordered a cup of coffee and sat waiting for Eleanor. After a while, Eleanor arrived with two exquisite gift boxes.
Eleanor warmly said, "Melissa, have you been waiting long? There was a bit of traffic. These are gifts for you. See if you like them. This box contains custom-made skincare products that I always use, tailored to your age. And this one is a pearl necklace. I think it suits you. Try it on."
"Eleanor, you're too kind. You're so good to me," Melissa said, looking surprised and covering her mouth, her eyes full of joy and gratitude.
