Chapter 40
“home?wrecker?”
Ignoring Leo’s surprised tone, I quickly looked away.
With that, I shifted my glance to Bright, who was laughing with his fans around him. Leo was an intelligent man, he took my hint and didn’t say anything further.
I was thinking of an excuse to leave the party for a break when a shrill voice echoed in the surroundings.
“How can you say that I am not invited? Let me in!”
An intruder?
Who could be that?
This sudden disturbance at the reception was a perfect chance for me, so I left Leo on the
dance floor to deal with the security staff. Echo rushed towards me and reported,
“An uninvited lady is fussing to get in. I bet she is Karen!”
As imposters were used to crash into luxurious parties, I sent out invites for the convenience of my guests. That must be the reason that the lady was screaming nonstop.
As I moved forward, that signature yelling disclosed the name of the evildoer, I rolled my
eyes at her.
“Melody!”
What an inconvenience!
She was out of prison now as her seven–day detention was up, free to spoil my mood. However, I couldn’t believe my eyes to finally saw her at the entrance. Melody, a supermodel, renowned for her exquisite taste was dressed in a dull gown, it wasn’t even ironed properly.
Her scattered hair, slippers instead of heels, and barely make–up face wasn’t a party look at

all. It seemed that she didn’t get a chance to tidy herself up after leaving the detention
center.
Hah!
What a desperate lady!
As it would be interesting to witness her questionable appearance at the party, I ordered my guards to let her in.
“Melody is also a friend. She must have forgotten her invitation.”
After all, who was I to stop the reunion of the two lovebirds after the painful wait of seven days!
In addition to Bright, Melody was here as a villain in Leo’s life as she spotted him in the crowd and shouted.
“Leo, baby!”
As expected, countless gazes followed her tracks as she ran blindly and almost jumped at Leo, crying profusely.
“I couldn’t enter our home, babes. The password of the main door has been changed!”
Melody complained about the technical errors regarding the lock system in the White mansion. But my eyes were darting from one corner to another, witnessing the irritation on the faces of the sponsors and company owners. They were disgusted by Leo’s attachment with such a woman.
I took a glass of champagne this time to celebrate and chuckled inwardly…
“Congratulations, Leo!
You have got all the attention that you wanted. Now, enjoy!”
This news would be a top trend across all the social media platforms that Leo’s lovely girlfriend created a scene at the party and embarrassed him. I can’t wait to read the business news tomorrow morning.

But all my hopes went down the drain as Leo didn’t lower his head in shame. Instead, he
spoke harshly.
“Melody, there is no issue with locks. I have changed the password.”
Blimey!
The ferocity of his accusatory tone crackled the air with tension as he pointed his finger at his lover.
“You don’t deserve to live with me anymore, Melody. You are a cruel–hearted person.”
Melody stumbled back, blinking rapidly to clear the fog of disbelief clouding her vision. She found it difficult to digest that the person speaking so rudely was the same Leo, just like me. That was indeed an intriguing twist in the situation that Leo was slandering her.
A quick bark of laughter burst from Melody’s throat as she asked.
“Are you breaking up with me, Leo?”
Léo’s eyes were fixated on Melody, burning her with the savage fire of his hatred. She gave a startled gasp before a swear slipped her tongue.
“Leo, aren’t you the same? I–I…”
She stammered on the words that couldn’t come out and cried out, panicking Leo as he stepped forward to intimidate her.
While living in the crystal castle, he dared to throw a stone at Melody’s small glass jar, her retaliation was going to destroy him for sure. That was the reason I initially planned to provoke Melody for details as she was Leo’s partner in crimes.
That brainless beauty would spill the beans for sure.
However, like an experienced criminal, Leo used the reason of disturbance and walked towards me. He requested my security staff.
“Escort this woman out!”
“No!”

As this was one of its kind opportunities, I stopped the guards and addressed them firmly.
“If Mr. Leo is hiding something that damages FB’s reputation, you will bear full responsibility.”
My attempt to dig out the truth was fruitless, as Leo stared into my eyes and smiled
mysteriously.
“I should have known
Standing beside me, he leaned in and whispered into my ear.
“Miss Laura, if you know about my past, then I know about yours too. I know what did you want, you want my love right?”
“Yes, always.” I can barely stop my eyes from rolling to the sky. Let’s see what this fool does.
