Chapter 3291 After a long pause, he murmured, "You still blme for what happened, don't you? But Melissa, it was my backing off that led you to Marcus.
If I hadn't let go of us, what would you have done?" "This is pointless.
Melissa tossed her briefcase into the white Bentley and moved to get in.
But Ryan grasped her hand suddenly, leaving her stunned.
He released her hand quickly, a bitter smile on his lips.
"I'm leaving the country and will be transferred to sremote place.
I heard it was Marcus' idea and that it was arranged through HR.
I think it's because of that wedding gift I gave you.
Melissa, I'm not out to cause trouble.
I just need a chat.
There's stuff you might not know, like what went down with Shawn last time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDoesn't it seem fishy? How'd he score that gig and cash? And hooking up with his boss' girl? Plus, who'd go for him with that mug?" Melissa asked icily, "What's your point?" Finally seated in a cafe across from her workplace, Ryan passed her a recorder pen.
He grinned, saying, "Got a good rapport with Mr.
Roger Hill from Fowler Group.
I recorded him blabbing while he was sloshed.
Turns out, Marcus set Shawn up from the get-go.
Even arranged for Shawn's fling with that woman.
And when Shawn got busted, Marcus bailed him out big time.
Melissa gazed at Ryan in silence for a moment, and then flicked on the recorder pen.
She recognized Roger's voice, though it cin bits and pieces.
Yet, the message was clear.
Finally, Roger stuttered, "Shawn's like a puppet in front of Marcus Fowler.
Marcus handed him twenty million as hush money but Shawn kept tight-Lipped.
He tried crawling back to his wife but she wouldn't have a bar of it.
" " Ryan smirked, remarking, "Do you hear that, Melissa? Your man isn't what he seems.
He's just a slimy snake, willing to do anything for your forgiveness.
With a sigh, Melissa switched off the recorder and slid it across to Ryan.
Ryan looked stunned.
"Aren't you mad? Don't you want to grill him on this?" Melissa replied calmly.
"This is between us.
None of your business.
She rose to leave but Ryan's voice stopped her in her tracks.
"If I swapped places with Marcus, would you still love him? You wouldn't, right?" Melissa hesitated.
Then she answered.
"The truth is, I never loved you.

Ryan wondered, if he had it all, would Melissa choose him instead? Melissa slid into her car.
After a moment of silence, her phone buzzed.
It was Marcus calling.
"You had coffee with Ryan?" "Yeah.

No one likes being watched, Marcus.
