Chapter 15 Your mistress can’t.
Keelan arrived at Harlan’s mansion at 2 o’clock in the afternoon and requested Melanie to follow him to his company. Elle was awake by then and insisted on following Melanie to Keegan’s company.
”You should rest very well, Elle, don’t go through the stress of following me around,” Melanie tried to convince her.
”As you likely know, I have little time left to live, I don’t want to miss anything regarding my brother’s wedding,” Elle had said, which made Melanie stop convincing her. Kyle decided to tag along too.
Keelan’s company was a 10 storey building and was very cozy, unlike Flynn’s company that was a 22 storey building and had a dark aura.
A woman whom Keelan introduced to be his collaborator, Cecilia Cecil, also known as CECE was the one in charge of everything pertaining to the bride, Melanie.
It’s not like Melanie had a problem with it but didn’t Flynn say Keegan was going to be in charge of even her wedding dress, oh, whatever.
Cece taking Melanie’s body measurement was the main highlight of the day.
It was an amazing experience.
But what scared her the most was her future husband who claimed to be a Mafia lord.
According to the movies she had watched and stories she had read, she understood how dangerous a mafia was. Of course, Flynn had a dark aura but was he really a Mafia?
This man will be the end of her.
Melanie enjoyed her day with Cece and that was because the older woman was very sweet to her.
When Melanie told Cece she wanted a black wedding down, Elle laughed and said,
”That is going to fit Flynn’s personality but why would you choose a black wedding dress?”
”I just want to try something different,” Melanie replied.
”I’ve attended a wedding that the bride’s dress was red,” Cece said and Elle laughed.
”I like something different too, sister-in-law will surely look good in a black dress,” Kyle said and Melanie nodded her head in agreement.
”Can I choose my Make up artist myself?” Melanie asked.
”I don’t know if Mr. Harlan won’t have a problem with it,” Cece said, unsure.
”It’s fine, Flynn won’t have a problem with it,” Melanie assured her.
She did not know if Flynn was going to have a problem with it. She can cross the bridge when she gets there, right?
After they had finished what they came to do at Keelan’s company, Kyle called a driver from home to come to pick them since they came in Keelan’s car.
”Mel!”
Melanie heard her name as she came outside the building with the twins. She saw Tyler across the road and wave at the man who hurriedly crossed the road.
”What are you doing here, Tyler?” Melanie asked as she hugged her friend.
”I came for a home service around here, how about you?” Tyler asked as he glanced at the woman standing beside Melanie.
”I came for some stuff regarding my wedding. By the way, this is Kyle and Elle, they are Flynn’s siblings,” Melanie introduced.
Kyle waved his hand at Tyler and dipped his hand in his pocket back while Elle shook hands with Tyler.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
”I am Elle Harlan,” Elle smiled as she tucked her hair behind her ear.
”I am Tyler Moore, I’m very pleased to meet you,” Tyler grinned at the beautiful woman in front of him.
She’s a beauty!
”Really? I’m pleased to meet you too,” Elle smiled as she released Tyler’s hand.
Melanie said nothing but only stared at them as they act like kids who spoke to their crush for the first time.
”You’re such a beauty,” Tyler commented and watched Elle’s cheek reddened.
”Hey! Are you flirting with my sister right in front of me!?” Kyle flared up.
”Even pictures are taken, but you’re not. What a pity,” Elle shook her head and everyone laughed.
”Whatever, the car is here,” Kyle groaned and left them to the car.
”Elle, let’s go, it’s getting late. Tyler, we’ll talk later,” Melanie smiled and Tyler nodded his head.
”Bye, miss Elle,” Tyler said and Melanie shook her head.
Hope it’s not what she was thinking.
”Bye,” Elle blushed and left with Melanie.
The drive back home wasn’t silent one bit, Elle wouldn’t stop asking about Tyler.
”Are you sure he does not have a girlfriend? Wait, which job does he do? Most importantly, how old is he? I don’t like guys that are too older. By the way, don’t you find him cute too? Lanie, how long have you known him? Wait… Did you hear when he said I was a beauty? Malanie, you didn’t notice that I blushed, right? It wasn’t obvious, right? Answer me, Melanie…” Elle whined
”Ask one at a time, which one should I answer first?” Melanie asked as she rest her head on her palm.
”Does he have a girlfriend?”
”No, Tyler is a single motherfvcker,” Melanie chuckled.
”What a relief, but he didn’t ask for my number, perhaps he doesn’t like me. But he called me a beauty, you heard right? I’m sure I wasn’t hearing things,” Elle pouted and Melanie laughed.
”Tyler is not like that, maybe he doesn’t want to rush you. But if you want his number, I can give it to you since I have it,” Melanie suggested.
”No no, I don’t want to look desperate,” Elle tightened her arms across her chest.
“What a dummy, what is the essence when you will be served hot breakfast at the end?” Kyle finally joined the conversation.
”Look at you. Enemy of love, we know people like you, duh!” Elle rolled her eyes and faced Melanie.
”He will ask for my number, right?”
”I don’t know,” Melanie laughed loudly.
”Lanie!” Elle pouted and Melanie kept laughing.
It was barely seven pm they arrived home,
”It has been a few days since I enter the kitchen, guys, should I prepare something for us to eat?”
”You know how to cook?” Kyle widened his eyes.
“What do you think? Which lady can’t cook these days? Well, I guess some can’t,” Melanie said and Elle burst into laughter.
”Why should I know how to cook when I have over fifteen chefs to make my food since I was a baby?” Elle chuckled.
”Well, you’re right but I don’t believe that, what should I prepare?”
”Anything, but very delicious,” Kyle said.
”Okay,” Melanie said and walked towards the kitchen.
”By the way, Elle…,” Melanie glanced at Elle.
”Tyler loves it when a lady can cook, I’m just telling you,” Melanie said, and Elle jumped from the couch.
”He must know I’m an excellent cook,” Elle dashed after Melanie.
”Really?” Melanie laughed as Elle grabbed her by the arm.
”Don’t let Elle follow you! She will spoil your cooking!” Kyle screamed.
”You’re a fvcking sadist!” Elle screamed from the kitchen and Melanie’s laughter filled the kitchen.

As Flynn entered the living room, the aroma that hit his nose almost made him salivate.
Did a new cook get hired inside this Mansion?
Those existing maids won’t make him salivate the way he just did.
He strolled to the dining table and saw Melanie and the twins about to dig inside their food.
He walked towards them and sat beside Melanie.
”Do you care for some?” Melanie asked and Flynn nodded his head.
Melanie served Flynn and a few minutes after he started eating, Elle started a conversation.
”Did you like the food?”
”Yes, who made it? Did you hire a new maid?” Flynn asked as he drank water from the glass cup.
”Sister-in-law did,” Kyle answered as he worked on the beef.
”Which sister-in-law? Melanie!?” Flynn choked on the water he already swallowed.
”Yes, don’t you like it?” Elle asked.
”Like? I love it!” Flynn said.
”My fiance Is a great cook,” Flynn added.
Melanie smiled back and Flynn pulled her closer and whispered to her ear, ”Your cooking is good, but I’ll rather tell a cat that,” Flynn smiled, and Elle, who thought her brother was commending her sister-in-law blushed.
”Yes, because your mistress can’t,” Melanie whispered back and smiled sweetly at him.
”B! tch,”
Flynn mouthed and Melanie saw what Flynn did that she laughed hard, choking on her food.
