Chapter 279
Melody paused momentarily to process the idea that never crossed her mind. “But Carly, it’s Nate that I like.”
Carly immediately advised, “Melody, you should give up on Nathan. He’s getting married to Laura. The Gardners and the Lynches are going to be in–laws.
“This land of marriage is unshakable. You must hurry up and look for a new target.
“The Shaws are a wealthy family from Mercity. What’s there to consider when Ewan comes from a good family and has a nice character?
“Remember, this is the guy the Lynches have chosen to become Halley’s husband. Just win him over, and you’ll get to marry into the Shaws.”
Carly was right. Nathan was getting married soon. Regardless of how much Melody liked him, she should not waste her youth on him. Melody was from a distant branch of the Alvarez family. Now that Linda had brought that up to humiliate her, Melody was even more determined to marry well
At that point, Ewan was the best option. There was surely nothing imperfect about him if the Lynches would pick him.
All Melody needed to do to get her revenge on Hailey was win Ewan over. Regardless of her identity as the illegitimate daughter of the distant branch, she was capable of winning over the flance of the Lynches‘ daughter.
Carly smirked. “Who would’ve known Ewan’s fiancee was an ugly woman? No man on earth would pick an ugly woman if he had a choice. Melody, Ewan likes you.”
Melody was
was an expert in keeping a lot of men interested in her. When she saw that look on Ewan’s face, she knew he liked her. Melody was sure that Bailey had nothing to make Ewan stay.
Meanwhile, Melody was the most popular student at Yorhine University majoring in dance, making her the dream girl of every introverted guy. For Melody, winning Ewan over was a piece of cake.
Nodding, Melody said, “Okay, Carly. I’ll bring you good news soon.”
“Hailey’s meeting Ewan for a movie tonight, isn’tshe? Well, you know what to do,” said Carly.
Blushing, Melody made an okay sign with her hand.
When Hailey returned to the female dormitory, she did not tell Celine about how she taught Carly and Melody a lesson.
instead, Hailey changed into a pretty y dress and twirled in front of Celine. “Celine, do you think Ewan will like it if I wear this for our date?” Celine was writing a prescription when she looked up at Hailey’s bright expression. Nodding, Celine answered, “He will.”
With that, Hailey decided she was going to go with the dress. Next, she began doing her makeup.
Celine had just recently gotten to know that Ewan was Hailey’s fiance: “Hailey, why do you like Ewan?” “Everyone calls me ugly because of this birthmark on my face. Ewan’s the only person who says I’m pretty
“I think he’s a really kind person. After some time, he confessed his feelings to me, and we got engaged ”
Celine met Ewan once when he was playing basketball on the court with many girls cheering for him. No doubt, he looked charming and charismatic. Nodding Celine approached Hailey and covered the birthmark on the left side of her face.
Hailey’s real face was revealed. She had an innocent face and a pair of large, twinkling eyes which gave her a dainty look. Many men w Hailey if not for her birthmark.
“It’s almost time, Celine. I’ll get going first. Having done her makeup, Hailey stood and grabbed her bag to leave.
Waving with a smile, Celine said, “Okay. Have fun.”
