Chapter 56: To Inherit Millions of Dors
Everyone was glued to their seats, wondering what was going on.
Reagan was bold enough to stand up and to use Ms.Watson, the homeroom teacher, of lying.
That action did not go unnoticed as the homeroom teacher''s expression darkened, eyes a bit
narrowed.
"What do you think you''re doing, Reagan?" the teacher said, her voice tinged with distaste.
"Is that how you talk to your teachers?"
Reagan emanated a confident aura as she stood and Ms.Scott, the math teacher, spoke right away, "If
you know anything, Reagan, then say it.Don''t worry, we''ll do our best to understand, Ms.Scott
reassured Reagan.
Reagan nodded.
To expose Melody''s true colors, Reagan had to disregard quite a few things.
"It''s just that I live in the same house as Melody and my parents haven''t called any teacher before,’
Reagan said.
The story that circted was that Melody was a girl that the Sullivan Family found in the countryside,
but no one came forward to admit who started it and Melody had never confirmed it so it stayed as a
rumor.
But with what Reagan had said, she did confirm that Melody was her older sister.
With Reagan''s statement, everyone''s gaze was pulled to Melody in the hopes to see her reaction.
Melody remained calm.
Her beautiful features were unmoved even with Reagan''s words.
And Reagan hated how deadpan Melody could be.
Reagan wanted Melody to be shocked and frightened, after Melody knew just how powerful Reagan
was.
Unfortunately, Melody did not show any of those emotions.
Her face was left expressionless.
Not a word, not a twitch.
And Melody''s calm state made Reagan internally panic as her heart started to pound against her chest.
Reagan clenched and unclenched her hands, discreetly hiding the panic that was rising within her.
Taking a deep breath, she decided that the way to shake it off was to have a bit more force.
"Come on, tell us.Tell us how you found someone to pretend to be your family to ask for a leave.Is the
teacher even really lying?" Reagan raised a brow at Melody.
With a cold and almost uninterested smile on Melody''s face, she looked at Reagan who was starting to
look like an absolute fool.
"Since you want to know a lot, why don''t you ask the principal who called this morning,’ Melody
confidently said.
Before Reagan could even ask, the principal had already stepped in to exin the situation.
"It was Melody''s guardian, Atty.Lewis, the famouswyer in California"
Alistair Sullivan used to have full custody over Melody until it was transferred to Atty.Lewis.
Although Melody was technically an adult, she was still studying.
So to make things easier for her to go to school, she remained in custody.
Looking at Reagan''s defeated expression, Melody felt more at ease.
Melody normally didn''t like to stoop down to the level of people like Reagan.But Melody could feel that
her anger had not subsided yet.She was not happy and those who had done her wrong were going to
be miserable, too.Melody walked up to the podium and took out her old cell phone from her pocket.
It was an old model with a keypad and a small screen.
Seeing Melody''s phone, everyone around was stunned.
Almost everyone was buzzing, wondering how Melody could live with such an old cell phone.
It was something pulled from a different era.
They even started to whisper if Melody ever had the Telegram app.
While everyone was shocked, Melody opened the projection that was on the ckboard.
Melody then yfully gazed at Reagan.
"Since you want to know what I did this morning, then I''ll show you,’ Melody said.
Melody clicked something on her phone and then something happened.
The cell phone automatically connected to theputer on the tform, which announced financial
news through the projection.
"It is reported that the decision for the chairman of the Sullivan Enterprise has been made” the voice
said.
"The second granddaughter of the former chairman of the Sullivan Group, Ms.Melody Sullivan, was
elected as the chairman of the Sullivan Enterprise."
This was what financial news was talking about.
Global Finance was the world''s most famous financial channel and for it to report about the Sullivan
Family showed a lot of authority.
After the video ended, the crowd burst into amotion.
Reagan''s eyes almost popped out of their sockets, unable to believe that Melody had be the
chairman.
Melody''s father agreed and that was a question in itself.
It was not just Reagan who was surprised, even Lance was in a state of disbelief.
But Lance gave Melody a thumbs up as he smiled at her, his eyes glistened with admiration.
"So you mean, you disappeared the whole morning just to inherit 100 million dors?" one asked.
"That is awesome.From now on you''re my hero.I''ll even call you my boss’’ Some of the people''s
mouths were wide in shock.
It was just like one of the rumors that said even if she didn''t study hard, she would inherit millions of
dors and assets anyway.
Ms.Scott was incredibly surprised.She originally thought that Melody was just a student with lots of
connections.
It wasn''t supposed to be that special.After all, Ms.Scott was also someone with power and a good
background.But it was still unexpected for Melody to have such a powerful background.
The chairman of the Sullivan Family Businesses was unbeatable.
‘This is troublesome!’ Ms.Scott thought.
She was scared and Melody had no intention of letting it go that easily.
For one, Melody never liked to cause trouble but once provoked, she wouldn''t stop until she was done.
She reached and picked up the chalk box on the table.
With ease, she stood in front of Ms.Scott.
Melody‘s face was almost expressionless until she narrowed her eyes as a confident yet deadpan air
surrounded her.
"It''s time to fulfill your promise, Ms.Scott” Melody said with a faint smile on her lips.
Ms.Scott''s lips trembled as she forced an awkward smile on her face.
"I was just joking, Melody."
Sheughed awkwardly.

"Let''s forget about this misunderstanding, shall we?"
Ms.Scott already had her head hung low.If she didn''t open the discussion, Melody wouldn''t be going all
out.
That kind of trick may work on others but not on Melody.
"I never joke around!"
Her cold tone was domineering.
Melody was not giving her enemy a chance, not one bit.Melody red at Ms.Scott with pure anger and
hostility.
Melody knew how to navigate through the sick and twisted game that they were trying to have her y.
"Don''t worry, I will stand by my word.If I don''t get first ce in ss next week, I''ll automatically drop
out” Melody firmly said.
Setting that deal, Melody left no room for negotiation on the other end.
It had a tone of finality that could not be moved.
Melody was spontaneous on top of being courageous which added to her re.
Looking at the embarrassed math teacher, the students around felt a little afraid of Melody.
At that point, no one wanted to mess with her.
Seeing the situation, Ms.Watson stepped in to mediate.
"Is there a way to fix this, Melody?" Ms.Watson said.
"Maybe you can reconcile with Ms.Scott as she didn''t do it on purpose.’ Ms.Watson pleaded with a
worried look on her face.
"Why don''t I ask her for an apology and we can call it even?" She sounded and looked hopeful at the
student.
Melody looked up at Ms.Watson.
From the first day of school, Ms.Watson had always been nice.
Every time Melody had something she needed or wanted to do, Ms.Watson helped out.
Considering that, Melody agreed.
"Alright." Melody nodded.
Seeing that Melody agreed, Ms.Watson hurriedly grabbed Ms.Scott.
"Hurry up!"
Ms.Watson scolded the other.
Ms.Scott unwillingly looked at Melody.
"It''s my fault this time.I misunderstood you.I''m sorry”
Despite the apology, Ms.Scott''s face was slightly scrunched as if she didn''t want to say any of it.But
even if she was hesitant to apologize, she still did.Melody didn''t want to go overboard because of the
ss teacher.
Seeing that everything was fine, everyone got ready to leave.Suddenly, Melody said something that
frightened
