Chapter 394 Tomorrow Night
Thomas was in a good mood. He smiled and drank the wine Melissa poured for him in one gulp.
“Melissa, who are you inviting over for dinner? Why are you being so mysterious?” Thomas asked Melissa.
“Dad, I want to invite Yandel Moss over for dinner.” Melissa blushed. Her words were filled with the shyness of a little girl.
The expression on Thomas’ face changed when he heard the name.
Dexmed Pharmaceutical had already suffered a lot in the hands of Dream, and that bast*rd Yandel still dared to have dinner at the Nichols residence!
“What’s your relationship with Yandel!” Thomas asked sternly. “You even invited him to our house? Don’t fall into one of his schemes!”
Melissa couldn’t stand her father insulting the man she liked. She immediately defended him.
“Dad! How could you say that? He’s not as bad as you said.”
“Hmph! What did he do to you for you to defend him!” Thomas slammed the table angrily and asked, “Did you know that Dexmed Pharmaceutical biggest rival is Dream? He made me lose a lot of market shares!”
Melissa murmured, “Dad, that just means that he’s better than you.”
“Melissa, what did you say? I dare you to say it again to my face!” Thomas pointed at Melissa’s nose and yelled.
Yvonne, who had been silent, grabbed Thomas’ hand and said, “Hubby, Melissa didn’t say anything wrong. Yandel is a young and capable man. What’s wrong with him coming over to our house?”
Her voice was gentle and beautiful, and it had a bit of a coy tone. Just from the tone of her voice, she had already quelled most of the anger in Thomas’ heart.
“She may be young and ignorant but don’t you know the situation between Dream and us?” Thomas frowned.
“I do… How could I not know?” Yvonne said earnestly. “But I also know that there are no such things as permanent friends and eternal enemies in business. Melissa and Yandel are dating. Your future son-in-law is coming to have dinner at our home. There’s no reason for you to be so angry at your daughter.”
“What!”
Thomas didn’t expect things to develop to this level and was stunned when he heard it.
“Yandel is never involved in any scandals, right? No matter how busy he was recently, he had always been in contact with Melissa,” Yvonne said with a smile.
“He’s now pursuing Melissa, and she hasn’t agreed yet!” “If our daughter were to marry Yandel, do you think he would still target you, his father-in-law, like this? When that happens, wouldn’t it be easier for Dexmed Pharmaceutical to take over Dream Pharmaceutical than burning a substantial amount of money now?”
Yvonne painted a beautiful picture in Thomas’ mind.
Thomas took a sip of wine. Although he still had his doubts, the expression on his face was not as stern as before.
“Dad, I will always be a Nichols. Of course, I will help the Nichols family!” Melissa chimed in as well.
Those words made the greed within Thomas’ heart flare-up.
If Melissa could win Yandel’s heart, it would be an incredible milestone for Dexmed Pharmaceutical.
“Melissa, my beloved daughter. It’s all my fault for getting too agitated just now. I was being old-fashioned.” Thomas lovingly stroked Melissa’s hair. “If you youngsters are in love, no doubt I have to respect it. Besides, you already like him a lot. If you invite Yandel over, we will definitely welcome him with open arms.”
Melissa nodded happily.
Yvonne was smiling brightly as well. At least Melissa could get even with Yara this way.
No matter how great Samuel was, he never took the initiative to come over for dinner.
No matter how bad Yandel was, he was still willing to come over to pay a visit. Based on just his sincerity, Melissa was already way ahead of Yara.
Shortly after, Yandel received the official invitation from Melissa.
When he received the message, Natalie was right by his side.
“Just go.” Natalie slowly raised her face and smiled. “I’ll go with you tomorrow night.”
