Chapter 49 Stay Out of My Way

Melanie could not believe her eyes. A look of unease flitted across her gaze as she stared at Vania. “Isn’t this Master Mia’s office? Isn’t she with a client right now? Why is it empty, and why are you sitting there?”Had she been tricked again? Was this one of Vania’s schemes?

Melanie was enraged by that thought. She cheated me out of so much money, and she even stopped me from meeting Master Mia! All at once, Melanie stormed over to Vania and began to shriek, “I underestimated you! What a good trick you played on me. First, you gave me Master Mia’s address, but it turned out to be a fake one. Then, you got the receptionist to fool me and take my money. What a schemer you are!”

However, Vania retorted nonchalantly, “It’s nothing compared to what you’ve done. You handed my children away to multiple different people and after all my efforts, I still haven’t found two of them. Miraculously, I received information about them being in Eastland, but it turned out that you sent a bunch of people to ruin me. Why don’t you tell me who’s the toxic one between the two of us?”

“You deserved all that!” Melanie was seething with rage.

Upon hearing that, Vania sneered. “I deserved it? And why do I deserve such treatment, huh? You and your mother barged your way into my family and wanted to steal my inheritance. You teamed up with Dylan Jones to set me up and make me lose everything. You wanted to drive me out of the family. I haven’t settled my score with you yet, and you dare to say that I deserve to be treated like this by you? I could not take my revenge back then, but now, I am the one in control. I can do whatever I want to you and even if you can’t stand it, you don’t have a choice!”

However, Melanie snorted arrogantly. “Hah! So what? I was the one who won, and you were chased out of the family. As for your children, I thought you had everything under your control? Why haven’t you been able to find them then? All their information is in my hands and if you make me happy, then I’ll consider telling you about them. But if you make me unhappy, I won’t say a single word. No matter how powerful you are, you still can’t force it out of my mouth. I want to see Master Mia, so you better tell me where she really is, or else your children’s lives are about to become a whole lot worse!”

Vania’s tone was dripping with derision as she said, “Melanie Greyson, can’t you change it up every once in a while and come up with a new threat? Is this all you have? I’m tired of hearing it already. I don’t need your help to find my children. In fact, there are so many ways that I can just destroy you right now. Don’t you think I don’t know why you’re looking for Master Mia? Hanson doesn’t want to bother himself with you anymore, am I right? You can’t even see your children now, right?

Do you think that just by meeting up with Master Mia, you’re going to win back Hanson’s heart? Stop dreaming! Sooner or later, he’s going to find out everything you’ve done in the past. But don’t worry, I won’t tell him now. I’d much rather let him put it together piece by piece. It’s going to be so much fun.”

Vania’s words only served to drive Melanie mad, especially when she said that Hanson no longer cared about the latter anymore.

“How do you know all this? Were you the one who said something to Hanson that made him treat me like this? I’m warning you, even if I don’t get what I want, I won’t let you get it either.”

However, Vania simply smirked. “Don’t be so sure about that. I can easily get my hands on things that you’d never be able to. One example is Master Mia, who you’ve been longing to meet.”

Immediately, Melanie’s expression became grim and she snarled, “What are you doing? Don’t even think about getting in my way! I have to meet Master Mia!”
