Chapter 1818 She Is Not Suitable For The Position
Le spoke to Holley with a high degree of certainty over the phone. "Now that Charles is missing,
Melissa is sure to take over the Shining Company. How can it have nothing to do with me?"
"Le, it seems that your mother-inw really dotes on you!"
Although Holley could have more bargaining power in front of Ferry after helping him defeating the
Shining Company, she still felt a little unhappy because it was with Le''s help.
"Of course! But what about you? You are already pregnant, why aren''t you getting married yet? Would
you rather have a wedding after your child grows up?" Le pretended to be concerned about Holley,
but deep down, she just prayed in her heart that the Hu family wouldn''t ept Holley.
A hint of displeasure was evident in Holley''s voice when she replied, "That''s none of your business,
Le!"
"Okay, okay. Please, get back to me as soon as possible. Don''t keep me waiting for too long.
Remember, you''re not my only option." Le didn''t have the patience to keep ying nice with Holley,
so she quickly hung up.
Although Holley was infuriated by Le''s arrogance, there was nothing she could do right now, except
watch Le gloat.
Holley called Ferry''s number after she calmed down.
Ferry was having a drink in the bar when he received Holley''s call. He was surprised to see her name

on his screen, and he smiled. After a short pause, he answered it, "What''s up? Have the Hu family
seen through your tricks? Do you need my help?"
"If I help you get rid of Charles, will you help me in return?" Holley didn''t even bother to ease in as she
blurted out whatever was on her mind.
"Get rid of Charles? You? Are you telling me that you''re powerful enough to go up against the Shining
Company now?" Ferry''s face expressed utter disbelief. He thought that perhaps Holley was barking up
the wrong tree now.
Holley took a deep breath and told Ferry everything she knew about Charles'' situation.
"Charles is missing?" Ferry had been leaning back on the sofa just now, but after hearing the news, he
sat up almost immediately.
Holley reassured him, "Well, believe it or not, it''s true! Melissa is going to take over the Shining
Company soon. That means, our chance ising!"
Ferry''s face became deep and pensive with thought. After a while, he answered, "That''s great. You
should get Le to manipte Melissa first, so she can get the confidential documents of the Shining
Company. Finally! At longst, we can wipe them off the face of the!"
"Yes, I can do that! But will you help me after that?" Holley wasn''t going to rest until she could get Ferry
to give her his word.
"What do you want me to do? Do you want me to get you pregnant, so you can be a part of the
Hu family?" Ferry burst into scornfulughter.
Holley blushed at once, but she didn''t dignify Ferry''s question with a response.
"That will depend on your performance!" Ferry said before he hung up on her.
The smile on his face disappeared as his eyes drifted off elsewhere in pensive thought.
''Charles, I never thought I''d live to see this day. Perhaps you are just paying for your bad deeds. Do
you believe in karma now?''
With a satisfied smile, Ferry pulled the woman next to him into his arms and began to flirt with her.
After Holley got off the phone with Ferry, she could barely keep herself calm.
She knew that it was only a matter of time before Rex would realize that she was just pretending to be
pregnant. Her only hope was to go and find ck now, but if that didn''t work out, she would have to
find someone who could protect her from Rex.
Calling Le was the only thing that could save her now. It was, without a doubt, the only trick she had
left up her sleeve.
Holley did not hesitate to quickly call Le back. She felt relieved once she told Le everything Ferry
had said.
"I know what to do! When I need your help, I will contact you in advance."
Le just wanted to find someone to help her. Thest thing she had wanted was to get Holley''s
counsel.
After hanging up, Le slowly walked toward the balcony. She looked up at the bright moon glittering in
the dark sky, and a smug smile appeared on her face. She murmured to herself with her hands crossed
over her chest. "Sheryl, even God is on my side. Can you see it?"
This was the first time Le was able to get a peaceful night''s sleep after she came to Dream Garden.
The next day
Melissa got up early because she was going to go to the Shining Company today. Even Nancy felt
surprised because this was the first time she had seen Melissa up at this hour.
"Ma''am, why are you up so early? Couldn''t you sleep?" Nancy couldn''t help asking her.
Unfortunately, Melissa was in a bad mood already, so Nancy''s words only agitated her even more. She
rolled her eyes at Nancy and said, "What nonsense! Who said I can''t get up early? I am free to get up
whenever I want!"
"I''m sorry, ma''am. I didn''t mean it like that!" Nancy scrambled to exin, fearing Melissa''s wrath.
"Oh, forget it! Stop wasting time talking about these things with me. Hurry up and make breakfast!"
Melissa dismissed Nancy and then sat on the sofa to wait for breakfast.
Nancy shut her mouth at once and went to the kitchen quickly. She didn''t want to get herself in trouble
over a few words.
Le, however, was so excitedst night that she didn''t go to bed untilte at night. In the morning, she
wasn''t pleased to hear Nancy forcing her to wake up.
"Hey! What''s going on?" Le was really angry that much was certain. She was sitting on the bed and
ring at Nancy with eyes full of displeasure.
"Miss Zhang, ma''am is already awake and ready to have breakfast. If you don''t want to go to the
her master. Le, however, was just a guest to her. Her politeness towards Le was out of necessity
and duty, nothing else.
"Well, I know." Le''s face darkened instantly. After Le finished speaking with Nancy, she pulled the
quilt over her head again and went back to sleep.
Le tossed and turned in bed but couldn''t fall asleep. Before long, she went downstairs for a ss of
water. The expression of discontent disappeared from her face, leaving only ttery for Melissa.
"Aunt Melissa, you seem to be in a better mood. Are you ready to fight for what''s yours?" Le slowly
approached Melissa, took her arm, and walked with her to the table.
"Well, don''t worry. I''m all right. After breakfast, let''s go to thepany together."
Melissa looked at Le with a smile. After a night of ideological struggle, she now felt relieved, and for a
moment, she even stopped thinking about Charles. She realized that no news would sometimes mean
good news.
"Don''t worry, Aunt Melissa. I''ll be by your side." Le patted her chest and promised Melissa that she
would support her no matter the odds.
After breakfast, they soon arrived at the Shining Company.
David had known for a while that Melissa woulde. Although he didn''t think that she was suitable
for this position, it was not suitable for anyone else to take the post at the moment. So to show
submission, he came out to wee her on her arrival.
