Chapter 50 A Literary Salon (2/2)

Perry decided to be selectively deaf ignoring Melinda and continued to call her Mellie as if she hadn't even talked. She was too tired to even argue much with him so she just let him have his way. She would respond to him from time to time when he talked pretending that she was listening to what he was saying.

ion. He couldn't bear to be regarded as a coward. After thinking about Perry's argument, Yulia suddenly got goose bumps all over her body and shuddered at the thought of another woman hitting on her.

”Alright. Let's not talk about these awful things. Don't embarrass us anymore,” Yulia ordered.

Thinking of the generous reward that he had been promised, Perry calmed himself down. The file Yulia gave him was about the literature salon. He was allergic to the word ”literature” ever since he met Melinda.

Her words were dripping with sarcasm and they really hurt.

Perry kept hitting on Melinda, a task that was consuming all his energy and the little patience that he had. He never gave up even though he wasn't receiving any positive response until he mentioned that he knew some writers who were going to hold a literary salon.

Melinda had taken part in similar salons with Kent before, and had gained a lot. Even though she didn't like Perry, she was still interested in salons.

Seeing that Melinda was finally willing to talk to him, Perry had the illusion that he would soon be successful. Then he made up a story according to the scripts that Yulia had provided.

That was right. Yulia also gave him a script, giving him details on how to act. She had anticipated all the questions that Melinda would ask, so fortunately, Perry had this information, or else he would have been dismissed within three minutes.

After hesitating for a while, Melinda finally agreed to go to the salon. The salon was usually held at night, but Perry didn't tell her the exact location, and only asked her to meet him at a specific place. Melinda deliberately wore a small nondescript skirt to show her respect and not draw much attention to herself.

Perry liked beauties, and Melinda was a beauty. The minute he spotted her, he couldn't take his eyes off her body. For the first time since he got involved in this crazy scheme, he actually thought that he had made a great deal with Yulia.

Melinda didn't like how he was staring at her, he reminded her of a hunter seizing up his prey, so she deliberately kept a distance from Perry. She furrowed her brows more deeply after following him for a while and it didn't seem as if they were any closer to their destination.

Generally, this kind of activity was held in a banquet hall, but when she looked around, no building in their vicinity looked like it could host a banquet hall.

”Here we are,” announced Perry triumphantly.

Melinda raised her head to check out their destination and found that it was a restaurant.

”Mr. Yang, I obviously overestimated your literacy on matters literature,” Melinda mocked with a tight smile.

This was not a salon, it was simply a guise to deceive her. Melinda didn't even give the man the chance to explain himself. She turned around and left, taking out her mobile phone to delete him from her WeChat.

She had been wanting to do this for a long time.
