CHAPTER 139: CHAPTER 139: TRY THE TASTE

A few women knowingly raised their eyebrows at each other, stopped shouting, only to find that the man on stage was looking at them with a playful smile, his gaze lingered for a few seconds.

Oh... my god, he actually smiled at them...

Melody Thorne’s eye twitched slightly, this man with a pure facade was actually the most cunning one here,

Those women are all daughters of prominent families, and just one smile from him would probably make them go through fire and water for him.

He wasn’t smiling at them, that was clearly the beginning of a tragic story for them.

Caleb raised his hand, and a hush fell over the audience, everyone waiting to see how The Adler Family’s drama would end.

"Then take it back," the man said casually, his eyes carrying a hint of malevolence. "It was always mine, but Uncle Adler had worked tirelessly for years, it’s time for him to have a good rest."

George Adler almost lost his composure and fainted. He originally planned to keep Caleb off the stage; the main purpose of this banquet was to showcase his noble and grand manner,

Unexpectedly, Caleb showed up and somehow retrieved the legal letter from years ago, making it public in front of everyone.

"Mr. Adler, will you be signing the handover agreement today?" A reporter spoke up again.

"I’m not feeling well, besides, handing over such a large company isn’t a matter of a day and a night," George Adler tried to evade the question, hoping to get through today first.

"No need for a handover," Caleb said unhurriedly, although he wasn’t raising his voice or shouting, there was an air of maturity and authority about him.

"The legal letter is quite clear, I only need to reclaim what’s mine. Uncle Adler was to manage the company, not own it. I will officially visit the company tomorrow."

"That is indeed the case," a lawyer also stepped up on stage, "There’s no need for a handover, the company has always been Young Master Adler’s, the legal representative too, Young Master Adler can visit the company at any time."

There was more being said on stage, and Caleb was already set to enter Adler Company, so it should be easier to investigate the collaborations from back then, Melody Thorne left the banquet hall.

As her car drove off, another car arrived in a grand manner, emanating a powerful aura all around it, much like the man inside.

The car stopped, the driver was sweating profusely, their car had broken down halfway, leading to the delay until now, it seemed like everything inside was already over.

Jared Quinn’s deep eyes flashed with a tidal wave of emotion; this woman, the surprises she gives him are truly accumulating, she even dared to tamper with his car.

"Young master, there’s no sign of the young madam inside," the driver came out and said.

Jared Quinn pinched his forehead with a big hand, indulging a woman too much isn’t a good thing.

Melody Thorne went to find Hans Montrose, he had just opened a new restaurant, and he invited her to taste the food.

"Is it delicious?" Hans Montrose’s charming eyes were fixed on her, waiting for her answer.

"Not bad," Melody Thorne nodded, eyes fixed on the huge hairy crab, "Am I also here to taste this?"

Waiter: "..."

This one costs thousands, you know.

"Yes," Hans Montrose nodded, smiling as he watched her.

Melody Thorne picked it up unceremoniously and prepared to peel the shell.

"Ow," her finger was immediately nicked by a small cut.

"What happened?"

"This crab comes with blades, doesn’t it?" Melody Thorne complained out loud.
