Chapter 10
Melody opened her eyes a little, looking lost.
Rylan touched his nose and smiled.
“My point was, I had an estate here. If you didn’t know where to go, I could let you stay there. You just happened to need some time to rest,
too.”
“You just thought I used to be a doctor and couldn’t stand to see people suffer.”
Melody’s fingers curled up.
Back when she returned to the Rosmere family three years ago, the kindness she always wanted but never got was easily given to her by a
stranger.
“You saw my medical record, my body…”
“Need a place to stay?” Rylan just smiled and asked again.
Melody was stunned, her eyes slowly turning red, and she started laughing too.
“Needed to.”
At Rylan’s manor, Melody had some rare peaceful days, and her health slowly got better.
In the afternoon, when she had free time, she would go out to the yard to get some sun and sit in front of her easel for the whole afternoon.

Rylan sometimes came by and brought her some afternoon tea.

They had only known each other for a few days, but there was this strange kind of understanding between them. They could talk about anything, and a lot of their views just clicked.
Melody didn’t bring up the past, and Rylan didn’t ask.
Her body was almost recovered, so Melody went to say goodbye to Rylan.
Rylan was in the study, and she quietly waited outside.
“Mr. Veyne, I suggested putting all the cash flow into this quarter’s new products, going all out to win the market back from the white guys.”
“With Alen’s popularity and his new work this time, we had a good chance to win.”
Melody looked up, her pupils shrinking.
The next moment, she pushed open the study door.
Rylan rubbed his forehead and looked up in surprise, “Melody, what’s
wrong?”
Melody looked at the design draft on the projector screen, “The design was copied.”
The study suddenly exploded, and all the blame was pointed at her.
“Who are you? How dare you say that!”
“Talking nonsense, did you know Alen was a top international jewelry designer, he…”
But Rylan looked at Melody and said, “Go on.”

Melody took out six photos of necklaces from different years and pushed her phone over.
“Smashed up and pieced together.”
Everyone compared right away, and in the end, they were speechless.
Rylan raised his eyebrow a little and opened the second design draft. After a moment, Melody found the original draft that had been pieced together.
Everyone gasped. If all the working capital for this quarter was thrown into copying designs, the Veyne Group was not just going to lose its reputation.
“But why… yeah, there seemed to be a rumor before. Alen’s finances had a huge gap.”
“These designs couldn’t be used, so what about next week’s new product launch? What if there was nothing to show..
Melody pressed her lips together, “How about letting me try?”
Everyone just thought it was funny.
But Rylan asked, “Three days, is that enough?”
Melody was stunned.
The Rosmere family also did jewelry business. After she was taken back by the Rosmere family, she tried really hard to get everyone’s approval.
But after she worked hard for half a month and handed ten design drafts to her father Darian Rosmere, he didn’t even look at them and just threw them straight into the trash.
“Elaine wanted to be a designer and you wanted to be one too, you just

“Elaine had to learn from a top teacher for three years before she made it. Can’t you have a little self–awareness and stop messing around!”
That look of disgust hit her like a bucket of cold water and made her finally see herself clearly.
Elaine’s stuff, she couldn’t touch.
Melody looked at Rylan, “You trust me? Not afraid I’ll mess things up for you?”
Rylan’s eyes lit up with a smile, “Give it a try, I got your back.”
Melody felt a clear thump in her chest, and her eyes got a little warm.
“Okay, I wouldn’t let you down.”
Everything about Melody started over.
And at the same time, Graham in New York was almost going crazy.
