Chapter: 3585
After the door closed, Shawn waved his fist, exclaiming, "What's he implying? Does he really believe no man desires Melissa? Men would fight for a woman like her."
"Be quiet. You're always causing problems for Melissa," Julie snapped.
Shawn smiled and interacted with Matthew. "Matthew, don't you agree?
Your mommy is both beautiful and capable, isn't she?"
Matthew chuckled, eliciting a helpless sigh from Julie.
With Julie looking after Matthew, it eased much of Melissa's workload.
She had intended to go to the company that day but had to postpone it until tomorrow. She spent the morning reviewing documents and was occupied with the latest financing for Watson Group.
In the afternoon, some good news finally arrived.
Alan had taken an interest in their project and was considering investing in it.
Therefore, Melissa wanted to arrange a meeting with him.
Her secretary was efficient, promptly scheduling a meeting with him for Melissa. However, it was scheduled for an auction in two days rather than a private meeting. Melissa understood that such meetings were the most challenging.
She had to consider the perfect gift to give Alan. However, beyond the gift, the most crucial aspect was establishing a good rapport with him.
Alan was testing her abilities.
After ending the call, Melissa found herself in a lighter mood. When she glanced over, she spotted Matthew standing next to the suitcase, dressed neatly and clutching a stuffed toy-his favorite teddy bear.
Blinking, he asked, “Will Dad come to pick me up?"
She crouched down to his eye level.
She tenderly ruffled his hair, replying, “He's working. He might not be able to come today."
He pouted, saying, “But you have to work too. Yet you always stay with me."
Smiling, she responded, “Aren't you glad I'm here with you? How about this? When I'm busy, I'll have Daddy keep you company, okay?"
Matthew reluctantly agreed.
