The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 499

“Oh, it's nothing. Melanie's here, so you should welcome her,” Raymond said with a grin.

A smile nudged Melanie's lips.

Raymond took one look at Melanie's fortune and gaped inwardly.

She has the True Dragon aura surrounding her. I can't believe I see that in a woman. She has a bright future ahead of her. She was already a high-ranking official at a young age. I wonder where she would be five years later.

“Donald, I'll be in Pollerton for three months. You can come to me anytime if you need help,” Melanie told him.

Donald responded, “It's all right. I can take care of it myself.”

Instead of flying in a rage at his response, Melanie flashed a smile. “There will be times when it isn't suitable for you to take action, right?”

“I'm sleepy, so I'm going to bed now. Why don't you two chat somewhere else?” Raymond asked.

Melanie glanced at Donald. “Let's go for a stroll?”

Donald grunted in acknowledgment.

They walked under the moonlight slowly. It was early autumn, so the weather was chilly. Melanie wore a trendy coat that gave off a different vibe from the outfits she usually wore in meetings.

Their shadows stretched under the street lights.

Melanie lifted her head and looked at Donald's side profile. “I'm curious about your identity.”

Donald looked ahead. “Didn't your grandpa tell you about my identity?”

Melanie shook her head. “No. He said your identity is top secret.”

“You're a high-ranking official. You know what 'top secret' means. Do you think I'll reveal my identity to you?” Donald sneered.

Melanie remained calm. “People might think I'm a tough and merciless person, but I'm a woman too. A pretty one, at that. Why are you treating me icily?”

Donald replied, “I know you won't get upset. I'm curious why you're pestering me, though.”
