Unscented-Chapter 1195 - 1137 Seem Like Another Person

Melissa could hear someone arguing to be let in into her office. The voice sounded familiar but she couldn’t recognize who it was and why her workers were trying to stop him from coming in.

She stood up and went out to see for herself.

She was surprised to see Murray’s father, her father-in-law.

"Let him come in!" she yelled at those that were stopping him. "That’s my father in law" she scolded them.

"I was told he has no official appointment with you" the security officer defended his action and moved away.

Murray’s father stared wickedly at Melissa.

"I’m sorry for that" she apologized.

"There is more to be sorry for, by the way" he retorted. It seemed he was blaming her for what he just experienced.

Murray’s father walked past her into her office. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

She followed him immediately.

"What I am hearing about this company, is it true?" he asked impatiently.

"Please, you should be more specific about what you heard" Melissa pleaded.

"The popular news about you, how you are destroying entertainers’ career, wasting investors’ funds, collapsing other companies" he aggravated it

Melissa smiled subtly. She was amused by the way Murray’s father was exaggerating.

"I should tell you, we are not doing any of that. All what I am doing is giving Anthony’s company a dose of their own medicine" she chuckled.

"What you are giving them is not medicine, it’s poison" Murray’s father professed furiously. "It’s high time you stop all of these" he advised her

"I will when it is the right time" Melissa was adamant.

"When it is the right time, really? You have done more harm to them already. You have to stop now" he insisted.

"But why is everyone seeing me as the bad person here. Anthony started this" Melissa fumed.

"And you have had your revenge. Enough is enough" he slammed her desk.

"It isn’t enough" Melissa refused. "He attacked when I was sick. I had to go to court when I am convalescing. He nearly killed me. The little I can do is to destroy his company" she said bitterly.

"You have had your revenge, Melissa. Now you are being inconsiderate. What about the entertainers that work for him and the investors that work with him, do you want to destroy them too?" Murray’s father was trying to make feel guilty.

She wouldn’t let anyone discourage her not even her father in law.

"The investors and entertainers can find other companies" she countered.

"You are literally destroying careers and you don’t want to stop" Murray’s father shook his head. He sprang up angrily and walked out of her office.

Melissa did not feel intimated. She knew that was what Murray’s father wanted.

Melissa’s assistant came in not long after.

"There is a letter for you ma’am" he handed a letter to her.

Melissa took it, she opened it.

It was a summoning letter from Association of Entertainment Companies. She felt skeptical.

She didn’t even know the AEC was still in existence and secondly why they would summon her was not clear to her.

"Is this really from AEC?" she asked him.

"I didn’t read it, you did. If it says it is from them then it is from them" he snorted. It seemed he was happy.

"What do you think they are going to do to me?" she asked again.

"Isn’t it written inside?" he asked sarcastically.

"You should tell me, because you are the only person I know could send me a letter with the name of an association that has gone into extinction" she spat out angrily.

She believed her assistant was playing pranks to stop her from dealing with Anthony’s Company.

The assistant was dumbfounded. He couldn’t say a word. He just kept staring at her.

"Do you think I won’t know that?" she fumed and threw the letter at him.

"Why would you think I am the one who wrote the letter?" his tongue was finally loosened and he said calmly

"Do you still want to deny this?" she questioned him.

"If I write the letter, where will I summon you to?" he asked gently. "You said they summoned you, why don’t you answer before making your conclusions?" he said sadly and turned around to leave.

He was obviously feeling disappointed in Melissa.

Melissa quickly realized she had committed a blunder.

"Wait! I’m sorry" she apologized quickly. "I think I’m too afraid to face them. That is why my brain was defending in every way possible" she said softly.

The assistant turned back to her with his eyes burning with anger.

"Come and have your seat and advise me on what to do?" she urged him.

The assistant walked back and sat down. He tried to control his emotions and forced himself to smile.

"What should I do?" Melissa asked straightaway.

"Honor them by answering their summoning" he replied simply.

"It isn’t going to be as easy as that" Melissa sighed. "What am I to expect from them, a sanction, a ban?" she was terrified.

"I’m sure they want a discussion before they act. They are going to ask you why you have been doing all what you did. Their actions will be decided by your answers" he advised.

"There are right word to say. What will I say and what should I hide from them?" she was totally confused. Her mind was telling her she would screw this up.

"The best thing to say to them is nothing but the truth and when they make decisions that penalize, you have to beg them. This isn’t the time to prove that you are right or you are powerful" he said slowly and Melissa was grabbing it.

She felt they were all good ideas.

"It will be better if you represent me at the meeting" she gloated.

"I would love to do that but they are going to see it as a form of disrespect from you. Just disrespect if it is not stated in the letter. But if it is stated that’s another offence" he revealed.

Melissa hurriedly check the letter again. Her assistant was right.

"It is clearly stated for her to come in person, no representative, no aide" she read out remorsefully
