Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 786

After saying that, Melanie's face darkened. She turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing this, Zoila grabbed her arm right away. Zoila squeezed out a smile, and persuaded her, "Melanie, since you're here, just go in and have a seat!"

At this moment, Fade couldn't help feeling curious, he peeked inside.

There were around eight young men and women in their mid-twenties, sitting on the sofas in the private room. On the table in the middle, there were all kinds of cigarettes and wine.

The people were chatting with one another, seemingly enjoying themselves. It was completely different from what Zoila had described on the phone. No wonder Melanie's face darkened when she took a glance.

Zoila seemed to feel that she misunderstood the situation. She pulled Melanie and persuaded, "Melanie, I contacted Harrison. But Young Master Yue happened to be with Master Zhu and Miss Huang, so they came together."

"You did?" Melanie's face was doubtful.

What a lousy excuse! How could there be such a coincidence? Just when Melanie needed his help, Harrison, who was Graham's son and the eldest son of the family, happened to be mingling with these rich heirs of Westamor District?

Now that Melanie thought about it carefully, she knew that the whole thing was probably a fagade, in order to deceive her into coming over and meet Harrison and the others.

Thinking of this, Melanie couldn't help looking at Zoila. Melanie immediately questioned her, "Tell me, Zoila, my mother was not taken by the Yue family, was she?" Zoila's expression changed and she stuttered. She did not know what to say.

In the private room, a man in his late 20s sitting in the main seat said with a smile, "Miss Yu, this has nothing to do with Miss Zoila. I asked for her help to bring you here."

Zoila nodded and said, "Melanie, it's Young Master Yue who asked me to help. You and he would be family in two days. It's good for you to get together and get familiar with each other in advance."

Melanie's expression darkened as she heard Zoila's words. She glared at Zoila and said, "If you want to get familiar with him, you can do it. I'm not interested."

With this, Melanie glanced at Fade and grabbed Fade's arm. She turned around to leave.

At the same time, she said, "Fade, my mother is fine. I was tricked. I was so anxious that I didn't think about it carefully. This lie is covered with loopholes. It's impossible for the Yue family to capture my mother, and that's useless anyway!"

Fade nodded and said, "Let's go."

Zoila was anxious as she spent so much effort bringing Melanie over. She rushed over and grabbed Melanie's arm, saying, "Melanie, since you're here, it doesn't matter to hang out here for a bit. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Melanie said firmly, "I don't want to sit with them."

Melanie immediately shook off Zoila's hand, walking away.

But at this moment, Zoila, who was behind her, suddenly knelt down on the ground and cried to Melanie, "Melanie, please don't leave. If you leave, I'm doomed. Please, save me!"

Hearing this, Melanie grew angry but surprised at the same time. She stopped and turned around.

Frowning, Melanie looked at Zoila, who was kneeling on the ground, she asked, "Zoila, you're doomed? What's going on?"

Zoila's voice faltered and she couldn't open her mouth.

At this time, Harrison, who was sitting in the main seat, stood up and came over. He said with a smile, "Miss Yu, I'm afraid you wouldn't know. Miss Zoila screwed up big time!" "What do you mean?" Melanie instinctively felt that something was wrong.

Harrison smiled and looked at a burly young man with a buzz cut to his left. He reached out and said, "Master Zhu, this matter has something to do with you. It'd be better if you're the one who explains it." Master Zhu immediately stood up and looked at Melanie. He said, "Two days ago, Miss Zoila went to the Stealth base for a visit. When she did, she took something forbidden away with her. Now, we, the Stealth Team, are still investigating this matter."

"What!" Melanie could not help but be shocked when she heard this.

She understood what the Stealth Team was. It was a huge organization responsible for the management of the national martial arts forces. Not to mention the Yu family, even the local aristocratic family of martial arts, such as the Yue family, would never dare confront the Stealth Team head-on.

But now, Zoila stole something from the Stealth Team. If evidence was found, at the very least, Zoila would probably be court- martialled, and would even drag the entire Yu family down with her.

For the Yu family, who lacked the support of martial arts forces, it would be a huge blow to them.

Thinking of this, Melanie was angry and anxious. She glared at Zoila and said, "How can you do this?"

Zoila said in a tearful tone, "I, I don't know either. I was just careless..."

"Careless? How could you be careless in such a matter?" Melanie was so angry that her face turned red and she yelled.

But at this time, Fade glanced at Master Zhu who wore a look of delight. Fade frowned slightly, pulled Melanie, and said, "Don't be angry. Listen to her, is that what really happened? The Stealth base is not a place anybody can enter."

After being reminded by Fade, Melanie recovered from her anger and felt that something was odd.

After all, Zoila was just a descendant of a branch of the Yu family and did not hold a high status. The base was guarded by the Stealth Team. Even Harrison would have trouble getting in.

However, Zoila entered the base and even stole something from them, yet nobody noticed.

No matter how she thought about it, it was a little implausible.

"What's going on exactly? Tell me in detail." Melanie glared at Zoila and questioned her.

Zoila looked at Master Zhu and Harrison anxiously. Seeing that they didn't intend to stop her, she told them the whole story, stuttering with fear.

It turned out that she did it to climb up the social ladder. As she came from a branch of the Yu family, her status was mediocre. Thus, when she first arrived in Yudson City, she had nowhere to stay. She often socialized with the people in the city, expanding her circle in hopes of obtaining a higher position in the Yu family.

In just a few days, Zoila had made friends with some rich heirs of Yudson City. However, despite their wealth, their statuses were far from top tycoons like Harrison's.
