The receptionist watched her leave and sneakily pulled out her phone to take a photo of Melody. She then sent it into the company's group chat and said, "Mr. Gray's friend." Soon, several people replied to her.
"Her figure is insane, and her legs look so long. She's definitely a stunner." "Her outfit is in Chanel's latest collection, and it costs more than our annual income." "Why did you just take her back? I want to see her face." "Mr. Gray has female friends? Does Mrs. Gray know about her?" "I thought Mr. Gray was one of the last few good men left. I did not expect him..." Adrian glanced at his phone before turning back to the opening elevator. Once Melody walked out, he stood up and greeted her. "Ms. Jones, please follow me." "Are you Theo's assistant? He has a habit of working until he forgets to eat and sleep. You should remind him to take care of himself more often. If I have time, I'll drop by and bring him sfood myself." Melody wanted to get close to Theo, so it was only natural for her to bribe the people around him.

Upon seeing Theo, a bright smile immediately reappeared on her face. "Theo, long tno see. Oh, right.
Your assistant's quite the talker, but he lacks tact. Why don't recommend a better ass but efout a to you?"
Although she had phrased it as a question, Melody did not wait for Theo to reply before she began explaining how superior the assistant prex she recommended was. As she spoke, Theo did not even lift his head. He only spoke up after he was done going through the documents in hand. "No need for that." Despite being rejected, she did not get mad. Instead, she walked up to him, and her expression was filled with affection. "Alright. Whatever you say."
