Murray nodded. But then, he began to laugh wickedly, which Melissa found very creepy. She then hurried to put on the coat which she had thrown on the bed and went to the next door. Soon, Demetrius, with a resentful look on his face, came out.
"The plan has worked out well?" Demetrius looked sullen, judging from his expression, which had no smile in it at all. But one could tell that he didn't seem to be angry as well.
Melissa nodded and returned to their room with Demetrius. On their way, Melissa turned around and thanked Demetrius in earnest, "Thank you, Demetrius. If it weren't for you, I might have been on the news now."
As she spoke, she glanced at Murray subconsciously. Demetrius was left looking at them with mixed feelings.
Demetrius thought, I don't think, by fair means, I can't beat Murray at winning Melissa's heart!
