Chapter 6

Scarlett was stunned for a few seconds, then glared at me with gritted teeth.

"Melody, we're both people of importance. Do we really need to be so petty about this?"

"I am, after all, the young lady of Stratton Corporation. Can't we just save face for each other?"

"As for your boyfriend, I can give him back to you right now. Why don't we just let this whole thing go?"

I wagged my index finger in front of her face.

"That won't do, Miss Stratton. A person of your word shouldn't go back on a promise so easily."

"All these employees of yours heard it. As a company leader, you should follow through on what you say. How could you face going back otherwise?"

"My time is limited. Hurry up and take off your clothes. Fulfill your promise."

After hearing my words, Scarlett's face grew increasingly pale as she glared at me viciously.

"You better think this through. This is New York City, Stratton family territory."
