Chapter 1120 - 1122: Don’t Get Cocky

Ethan Knight’s lips curled with a hint of mischief. "I’m planning to save you, but I have one condition."

"There’s no such thing as a free lunch, but marrying you is definitely impossible, so don’t even think about it."

Ethan’s eyes darkened for a few seconds. "Alright, I want you to stay here for the next few days so that Jared Quinn won’t see you. How about it? Dare to agree or not?"

"Don’t dare," Melody Thorne answered fluently, twirling a lock of black hair with her fingers. "I guess if I don’t go back tonight, Jared Quinn will storm into your Knight Palace Gate with his men, and then there will surely be a lot of casualties!"

Ethan Knight: "...Then accompany me to a banquet tonight. If I’m pleased, I’ll give you the antidote, and you can return to Jared Quinn’s side. How about it?"

"Brother!" Flora Knight’s face was worse than eating crap!

Melody Thorne chuckled, "Alright!"

It’s better than having Jared Quinn threatened because of her by a woman like Florence!

"Alright, it’s settled!"

"Hand over the antidote!" Ethan Knight reached out to Flora Knight.

"Brother, you clearly know she’s just using you. Have you forgotten your past experiences? Have you forgotten that the animal you hate the most is women?" Flora Knight said emotionally, "How can you lose your mind over a woman now!"

"She’s a woman, and so are you," Ethan Knight extended his hand. "I’ll count to three, hand over the antidote, or you know what I’ll do!"

"One."

"Two," Ethan Knight squinted his eyes.

Reluctantly, Flora Knight handed over the antidote!

"Let’s go."

"Wait," Melody Thorne stood up from the sofa. "Isn’t the banquet tonight? I’ll go back to the Quinn Family first, and I’ll meet you later for the banquet!"

"Melody Thorne, don’t play any tricks in front of me. You can’t leave now. Have you forgotten the time you owed me yesterday? You can make up for it today!"

Melody Thorne originally wanted to go back to discuss or explain it to Jared Quinn, to gain his consent. But now it seems that’s impossible with Ethan Knight!

"Fine," Melody Thorne sat back down on the sofa.

"Brother, do you even know what you’re doing? If you use that antidote, you could completely threaten her to marry you," Flora said, her body shaking with anger.

"If she accompanies you for just one day like this, do you know what you’re losing? You’re not only implicating yourself but also dragging me down!"

"Now that I find her irritating, will you help me teach her a lesson?" Melody Thorne picked up the platter of washed fruit from the table, which included a big bunch of grapes. They tasted pretty good.

"Melody Thorne, don’t be so smug."

"Take her out," Ethan Knight waved his hand.

"Yes."

"You’ll definitely regret it, brother."

Flora Knight was driven out, and Ethan Knight’s gaze fell upon Melody Thorne. He waved the servants away and sat quietly next to Melody on the sofa. His face, more beautiful than a woman’s, turned towards her. "How should I use this half-day to make you devoted to me and forget about Jared Quinn’s existence?"

Melody Thorne ate a grape. "It’s very simple. You go upstairs and lie down to sleep for a while, and in your dreams, it’ll be realized."

"Are you telling me to daydream?" Ethan Knight leaned closer, his nostrils filled with the pleasant scent from Melody Thorne.
