His Heiress Wife (Retika) Chapter 84: Caught them by a Storm

Lance had no particular feelings for Reagan.He had the same attitude towards all the girls of Class 8.

The reason why he hated Reagan afterward was that Reagan didn't respect his Boss, Melody.

Melody was his idol, the object of his worship.So if Reagan disrespected her, then Lance would
naturally hate Reagan.

However, he had to admit that Reagan's gift had found its way to his heart.

Lance really liked this gift.

The Storm game had always been popular around the world.

Before this game went online, its preview clip had attracted the attention of many players.

Right now, Storm had just started recruiting players to review the game.

Money alone just wouldn't cut it.

To get their hands on this game, they had to have real strength.

Basically, only the top three players of the major countries had the chance to try.

Before the top players had even tried, Reagan had already obtained the game card, which showed how
valuable it was.

Lance reached out to take it and looked at Reagan.

"Thank you!" he said respectfully.

Reagan smiled faintly, then acted natural and unbothered.



"It's a birthday gift for you.I hope you'll like it!" she said and smiled.

Everyone was envious that Lance could receive such a gift.

Not only that, but they also envied Reagan for having the ability to get such a gift.

One of their classmates was overly curious and couldn't help but ask Reagan about the game.

"Reagan, you are so amazing.How did you get this game card? It hasn't even been released in the
country yet.I am so envious" he asked.

"Yes, I also want it.Reagan, you are really great." another joined in.

Their cries of envy brought satisfaction to Reagan's heart that had boosted her pride.She knew that
she would definitely be in the limelight today and felt satisfied with the attention she got.She pretended
to be casual about it and fashioned an indifferent expression on her face.

"It's nothing.It's just that my company happened to cooperate with Storm.Their product manager
thought that I liked to play games and gave it to me.But you know that I love ballet and piano the most.I
don't know anything about games, so I brought it here as a gift for Lance" she boasted, emphasizing
her company's said relationship with Storm.

Reagan was too nonchalant about it that she made it seem like getting that game didn't even cause her
sweat.

The other guests pursed their mouths in envy.Their hearts burned with bitterness and envy.

Reagan could easily get everything that they had tried so hard to get for themselves, and she could
give them away like nothing.

A faint smile had marked on Regan's face as her heart leaped with joy.



Her eyes then fell on Melody, who was quietly eating in the corner.

Reagan felt disgusted from the bottom of her heart.

Melody really was a country bumpkin in her eyes who hadn't seen the world.

She wouldn't stop eating like she was going to starve to death if she did.

Reagan was worried that she wouldn't get a chance to attack Melody

"Well, would you look that! Isn't this a great chance?’ she maliciously thought.

She looked at Melody with pure excitement and then pretended to be curious.

"Melody, everyone had already given their gifts.Where's yours? Aren't you close friends with Lance? So
your gift must be perfect, right?"

In that instant, everyone's attention was diverted to Melody, including Lance.

He was also looking forward to her gift, although he didn't expect Melody would give him a gift.

Melody sat on her chair unbothered and ate the seasoned beef steaks one bite at a time under their
heated expectations.

The beef was firm and smooth with the spiciness that was mixed with the smell of chili peppers.

The food tasted even more divine with a little sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper.

She was still stuffing food in her mouth when everyone's attention suddenly shifted in her direction.

Melody enjoyed her food a lot, but they had instantly spoiled her mood, and she lost her appetite.

She put down the knife and for in her hand and stared back at these people.



Lance looked at Melody's stone-cold face.

He thought that maybe she was embarrassed because she didn't prepare a gift.So Lance quickly
opened his mouth and came to her rescue.

"Everyone, are you hungry? Hurry up and eat while it's still hot.

If it's not enough, I'll get the chef to make some more; he said in the attempt to divert their attention
away from Melody.

Reagan was angry that Lance attempted to bail Melody out.

She really didn't understand what was wrong with these guys.

They were all defending Melody.

She knew that Melody definitely hadn't prepared a gift and was just trying to embarrass her.

"Melody, why aren't you taking it out? Did you forget to bring one?" she asked again.

Melody raised her eyebrows and looked at her with confusion in her eyes.

"Take out what?" she asked.

One look at her face, and Reagan could tell that she was pretending to be clueless, but Reagan
wouldn't back down.

She wouldn't miss this chance to make a fool out of her today.

Reagan was confident that even if Melody really took out something, it would definitely not be as
precious as her game card.She was looking forward to that moment when Melody got humiliated.



"Melody, don't joke around with us.Of course, you should take out your birthday gift.Come on, aren't
you prepared?’ Reagan said sarcastically.

Melody responded faintly, "Oh."

Her voice sounded way more chilly than usual.She reached into her pocket and fished out a small
envelope.She tossed it in Lance's direction.

"Here, happy birthday!" she greeted monotonously.

Lance caught the envelope.He didn't expect Melody to actually prepare a birthday present for him or
greet him with a happy birthday.He broadly smiled and thanked Melody cheerfully like a child.

"Boss, thanks for the gift.You just made my day!" he said.

Everyone's eyes fell on the envelope in Lance's hand.

They didn't have any idea what could be inside.

The envelope looked too crude and straightforward.

However, it was Melody's mysteriousness and element of surprise that had them dying of curiosity.

Not to mention Reagan, even Clifford was a bit curious.

"Lance, open it and take a look.Tell us what's inside too!" Clifford hyped him up.

Lance was just as eager as anybody else and couldn't wait to know what Melody had for him.

But he didn't dare to decide on his own.

Lance raised his head glanced at Melody.



He was like a puppy waiting for his master's signal to gobble the treat.

"Boss, can I open it?"

Lance expectantly asked for permission.

"Suit yourself!"

Melody replied out of boredom and didn't care too much about this matter.

With the persuasions of the people around him and Melody’'s permission, Lance opened the envelope.

All their hype subsided when a small USB flash drive fell out of the envelope.

Reagan burst out in laughter when she saw the gift Melody had prepared.

"Melody, did you just give him a USB stick? Did you record some birthday song or something?" she
jeered.

Melody didn't say anything and just looked at her with a cold gaze.

Reagan was swept away by the sarcasm in Melody's voice.She shivered with the sudden chill that
brushed her skin as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on her.

Lance didn't mind.

He felt happy no matter what Melody gave him.

Under Clifford and the others’ curiosity, Lance asked the servant to send a laptop computer over and
inserted the USB stick.



The moment they ran the information inside the USB and made it public, several boys watching the
show all burst out in a shocking cry.

"Oh my god..."

"Oh my god!"

"Oh my god, heavens!"

Their screams had attracted everyone's attention.

Lance came to Melody with his laptop in shock.

He was in a frenzy.

"Boss, is this really a gift from you? How did you do it? How did you collect so many Storm games?
Most of them had already been phased out.Heck! You can't even buy these copies anymore! This is
really too precious!" Lance rapped.

Everyone looked at Lance with envy, while their eyes only held complete admiration towards Melody.

Just now, Reagan only got him the limited experience game card of the Storm game while Melody gave
him the entire collection of the Storm games.

What a lucky guy.

Melody looked at everyone who was making a fuss out of nothing and looked a little confused.

She frowned while looking at the hyped crowd.

"What's there to be so excited about?" she cursed in her heart.



It was just some small game that she had casually created to pass the time.

Melody didn't understand what was making them fired up.

Before the crowd could even recover from their shock, Lance suddenly burst out another scream.

"Oh my god...this..." he stuttered.
