After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities

Chapter 97

Right then, a waiter knocked on the door of the private box.

A man reminded them, "It should be the birthday cake."

He trotted to open the door immediately.

A two-layered cake was pushed into the box, which eased the tensions in the room.

Melissa worked in the showbiz, so she could still keep a graceful smile after the slight grudge just now.

"It's my birthday today. Shall we take a group photo together?"

Then she passed her phone to the waiter who delivered the cake. "Could you please take it for us?"

The waiter felt flattered and agreed immediately.

Everyone stood up, surrounding Melissa, who was standing in front of the cake.

She was like a princess.

But only two persons remained seated.

Sylvia smiled ironically. "Sorry, but I'm not close with you, Miss Kelly."

She stood up. Although Franklin was beside her, her aura could match his.

Melissa's smile stiffened. "Miss Andrews, are you still mad? I apologize to you on my brother's behalf."

"If you killed a person and apologized, would it work?" Sylvia ignored her.

Melissa didn't expect her to be so arrogant. She thought it was all because Franklin was her backer.

"Miss Andrews, I know you are still angry. We're friends..."

Sylvia interrupted her, "We are not friends."

Something quickly flashed through her delicate face. "It's your birthday. I don't want to bully you by

asking a demanding request. However, I cannot let go of it easily."

Melissa looked at her and cracked a smile. "Miss Andrews, what on earth do you want?"

Sylvia's clear voice echoed in the room. "Kelly Group has a land in South Suburb, and it doesn't cost

much money. It's quite remote in the suburbia, so Kelly Group hasn't developed it for years. Many

people wanted to buy it from your father, but he repeatedly increased the price. The current price is 150

million dollars. I'll offer 80 million dollars to buy it. What do you think?"

Her words were clear and logical, appalling others.

Roman gritted his teeth in anger. "You!"

Melissa stopped him. "Calm down, Roman."

Then she looked at Sylvia. "Miss Andrews, my brother and I cannot decide anything relevant to the

business. We need to ask our father for his opinion."

Franklin felt bitter and jealous.

If she wanted a land, he had many. He could give all of them to her for free.

However, she just wanted the land belonging to Kelly Group, which angered him.

Franklin seethed with rage.

"Miss Andrews, do you have 80 million dollars?" Paul looked at her worriedly and reminded her, "It's 80

million."

Others also didn't believe Sylvia could have 80 million dollars.

Neither did Roman and Melissa.

Therefore, Melissa asked Roman to calm down.

"I want to buy the land. Of course, I can afford it. I only offer 80 million." Sylvia looked stern. "I know it's

worthless for the Kelly family."

Gritting his teeth, Roman looked at her. "Miss Andrews, you are too aggressive. Don't you care about

your public image at all?"

Sylvia blinked. "Kelly Group kept increasing the price. Don't you care about your company's image at

all?"

Franklin didn't know why Sylvia wanted that land, but he kept it in mind. He called Roman's father on

the phone directly. "Hello, Mr. Kelly. How much will you ask if I want the land in the suburbia?"

Roman's father was too excited to believe it. "Franklin Maskelyne? Mr. Maskelyne, do you want it? The

land is worthless. Although it holds thousands of acres, it's too remote. Mr. Maskelyne, you are always

good with the land. Why are you interested in it?"

Franklin answered impatiently, "Stop beating around the bush. How much?"

"Mr. Maskelyne, I'll give you the lowest price if you want it. 50 million dollars."

"I'll send my assistant to sign the agreement with you." Franklin ended the call directly.

Melissa and Roman looked annoyed and embarrassed as if they were slapped in public.

They fawned over Franklin secretly, but it was another story when others witnessed their father

flattering him and reducing the price.

Melissa had always been a focus since childhood. She was the campus belle at school. After growing

up, she worked in the entertainment business, and many people flattered her.

This was the first time that she felt so embarrassed and upset.

Looking at Franklin, she couldn't believe he stomped on her dignity fiercely because of Sylvia.

Mainly, it happened on her birthday.

Roman also gaped at Franklin.

The Kelly family always wanted to connect with the Maskelyne family. If it wasn't for the fact that

Brayden liked Melissa, Roman wouldn't have deserved to show up in Franklin's presence.

Although they went to school and grew up together, Brayden was Franklin's only close friend.

Brayden liked making friends, and the group of people who wanted to flatter Franklin fawned at

Brayden.

Therefore, Franklin and Brayden became their group leaders.

However, it was too difficult to get along with Franklin. Although Paul always gathered with them, he did

it to disgust Franklin.

After all, they had been foes since school.

Until now, it was still the same.

Roman had never expected Franklin to fall out with them for a woman.

Others' mouths dropped open while watching the scene, including Brayden.

They had never expected Franklin to be so aggressive and overbearing.

Sylvia glanced at others, raised her hand, and yawned elegantly. "I'm too sleepy. Send me home.'

The tall, sturdy prince-like man stood up, gently squeezed her to his side, and walked toward the door.

Brayden followed suit after darting at Melissa apologetically. "I'll explain to you another day, Melissa.

Roman, you shouldn't have commented Sylvia that way." Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Other men's dates watched Sylvia's receding figure in envy and jealousy.

They believed Sylvia's beauty was her biggest weapon.

One woman muttered, "Is her name Sylvia? She seems to be on the trending again today."

"What's it about?" Paul tapped his phone to look for Twitter trending topics. "Gosh!"

"What's wrong?" others asked curiously.

Paul complacently shared the news with them, "My goddess had a group photo with Mayor Cody and

Mr. Hill. She was even rewarded a silk banner."
