I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 239 Be There Or Be Square
“I’ve looked through the portraits you’ve taken. The most popular one is the series with Mr. Lindsey. The theme was The Knight of Fragrance. As for the series you shot for me, you changed the name of the theme to The Genie of Fragrance. Since the masses love them, and you yourself are interested in the tools used in creating fragrances, why don’t you consider doing a fragrance series again?” she proposed.“Will you be my model again?” he asked.That was what Mr. Smith had in mind, but there were some problems in actual implementation.“You just used me as your model. If you do that again, you might tire of it. How about increasing the number of models from one to two? You can invite both the knight and the genie to come together to create a fragrance. I’m sure sparks will fly.”Mr. Smith’s eyes lit up. He admitted what Melanie said was right, but…“I’ve said it before, I’ll never shoot Gabriel Lindsey ever again!” he said stubbornly, brows furrowed.“If Gabriel weren’t as difficu

Two days later, Melanie arrived at the studio using the address Mr. Smith’s assistant gave her. To her surprise, she saw Gabriel already there. He was sitting silently, getting his makeup done and leaving his thinning hair in the mercy of the hair stylist.“How’s everything going?” Melanie asked the assistant in a whisper. He smiled, and said softly, “Mr. Lindsey came bright and early and cooperated well, but he and Mr. Smith are ignoring each other. They didn’t exchange a single word…”“It’s good for them to speak less to each other. The less they talk, the less likely a mistake is going to happen,” Melanie said with a smirk.Keeping their silence was the greatest level of tolerance these two geniuses were extending to each other.After Melanie had her makeup done, she and Gabriel changed out into a new set of office wear. The white and blue attire matched well with the clean and bright perfume studio. Silvery precision equipment and colorful bottles scattered across the table

Melanie agreed with her parents.She behaved just like any other ordinary person, playing games that other children played. She didn’t want others taking extra care with her because of her condition. She knew her body’s limits, and always watched her boundaries.“To think I share the same talent as the Angles. I’m truly a late bloomer,” Melanie said self-derisively.Just then, Mr. Smith put down his camera, satisfied.“Excellent!” he boomed.“You’re done, Mr. Smith?” Melanie asked with a smile.She and Gabriel were done with the first step of creating the fragrance, too.Mr. Smith nodded as he eagerly looked through the fruit of his labor. Melanie held the test tube, and took a deep whiff.“Hmm…”She subconsciously closed her eyes, thoroughly enjoying the light fragrance that was a result of the clash of inspiration between them.“Let me smell it, too.”Gabriel was immersed in the mood, and bent over to sniff the fragrance in her hand.“Whoa!”The crew gushed uncontrollabl

They had encountered a landslide in Northwest Village. Had he not rushed over and protected her with his own body, disregarding his own safety at such a critical moment, she wouldn’t have been lucky enough to survive.“Why didn’t I know about you saving me?” Melanie asked.“I once saved you in my dreams!”Jeffrey couldn’t be bothered to explain to her as he started the engine of the car, his face turning cold as he asked, “Where to?”“Home.”Her voice was crisp and clear, and Jeffrey found it exceptionally pleasing to the senses. His home was hers, and her implicit admittance to that lifted his mood instantly as he drove her back home.However, reality wasn’t as ideal as Melanie thought it to be.One of Mr. Smith’s crew members at the studio recognized Jeffrey after all. In her shock, she scrolled through her contacts and called Grace’s number.“Ms. Grace, I have big news. What price can you offer me?”“What big news can you have? Hmph.”The caller used to be a huge wannabe i

As expected, the banquet reached its climax an hour later.John took the stage to speak, praising himself eloquently before eagerly introducing Gabriel.With Gabriel by his side, John's confidence grew as he announced to the crowd, "I have good news to share with everyone!"Starting today, Mr. Gabriel will be the perfume consultant for White Group! With Mr. Gabriel's guidance, I believe White Group's perfumes will surely make a stunning international breakthrough!"The audience erupted into applause and praise.John scanned the crowd triumphantly, noticing Melanie standing in the front row. He squinted momentarily before decisively saying, "Apart from the elites from various industries present today, my colleague, Miss Melanie, is also here!"Following John's gesture, a spotlight illuminated Melanie, causing everyone's attention to shift toward her."Did anyone pay attention to the recent Fragrance Gathering? Melanie ranked in the top five and stood alongside four renowned perfu

"Because the previous night, the hotel room where I was staying suddenly caught fire," Gabriel continued, causing a stir among the audience. "Miss Melanie rushed into the room to save me at the risk of her own life. However, both of us suffered from smoke inhalation, and it took two days for our sense of smell to fully recover. Hence, we couldn't smell anything at the Fragrance Gathering.""What caused the fire?" Someone from the audience queried."Excellent question!" Gabriel pointed at the individual. "I wondered the same thing. How could such a coincidence occur in a high-end, professional hotel? Such a matter with a low probability of happening couldn't be mere chance, right? Would you like to know the truth?"As he spoke, he signaled for his assistant to come forward.The assistant connected a laptop backstage, and a large LCD screen descended onto the stage. The screen began displaying a photo taken by Mr. Smith. The photo had been enlarged. In the bottom right corner sto

"Let's leave it at that for now," Melanie said with a hint of resignation.She hadn't anticipated Jacob's appearance. Her plan was to exploit John's momentary lapse to pressure him into publicly admitting his involvement. However, Jacob's unexpected arrival threw a wrench in her plans."Just like that?" Gabriel looked at her, disbelief evident in his eyes. "That doesn't sound like something you'd say.""I said, 'for now,'" Melanie emphasized as she pursed her lips. "Besides, even if we didn't completely cripple White Group tonight, they will require a substantial recovery period. Our plan might not have achieved maximum impact, but it's far from a failure. Look over there..."Melanie gestured discreetly. Across the room, the head of White Group's business department was surrounded by a throng of people. Many guests tonight were White Group's partners, and now they were clamoring to terminate their contracts out of fear that White Group's tarnished reputation would affect them

"Jeffrey!"Grace looked utterly surprised, unaware that Jeffrey was also present tonight.In truth, not only was Grace caught off guard, but Melanie herself was puzzled as to why Jeffrey had exited the banquet hall.Ignoring Grace completely, Jeffrey approached Melanie. His tone was soft when he spoke to her."What did she say to you?"Melanie felt a tightness in her chest, and her body tensed up. She remained silent.Sensing her unease and recalling Grace's track record of causing trouble, Jeffrey gave a subtle gesture. Soon, his car pulled up in front of them. "Get in. I'll take you home."He deliberately supported her waist and ensured she got into the car safely. Just as he was about to follow her in, his gaze fell upon the photo in Grace's hands. The sight of those two familiar figures from his past instantly ignited a fiery rage in him."What do you have there?!" Jeffrey's voice was cold and menacing.Startled, Grace instinctively took a step back. However, Jeffrey s

Pleasantly surprised, Melanie turned around to see the man she had been looking for. She never stopped saying his name in her head. He stood right behind her.At that moment, she stopped thinking completely.Without even hesitating, she ran toward him and dove into his arms."Ughh."Jeffrey groaned in pain. He did not dare to press against her stomach. Instead, he arched his back to hold her."Where the hell have you been? Do you have any idea how I…" She cried so much that she could not speak."Alright, alright. Good girl. Don't cry. I've come back."Jeffrey kept rubbing the back of her head. "Eagle was too neurotic. I've nearly gone mad from dealing with him. I finally got him to regain some of his sanity today… That's how I had the chance to find you…""How did you know where to find me?" Melanie asked."Today is the day of Nathan's trial. I know you'd definitely be in the courtroom," Jeffrey said confidently.Melanie finally calmed down a little. After letting go of him,

"We're not together…"Kenneth's facial expression changed as soon as he saw Melanie.Melanie noticed there was a hint of guilt in his eyes. This was an unsettling feeling for her. "Then where is he? What happened to you guys?"Noticing that she was shaking, Annie and Carson, who had accompanied her to court, rushed forward to assist her."Eagle had a prior arrangement with Nathan. Once Nathan and Leo's plan at the York family's residence was thwarted, Nathan would press a button. Eagle would then receive a code to detonate a bomb. He'd blow us all up," Kenneth explained."Jeffrey was the one who noticed Eagle wasn't in the right state of mind. That's why he informed me to leave with Mr. Oliver. He… Stayed behind to persuade Eagle…" He added."What happened then?" Melanie's voice was shaking."All I knew after that was that the hotel blew up. I waited for him to contact me but he never did. Mr. Oliver and I have been on the run from Nathan's shadowy pursuits. I only managed to sn
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 1082 I Have Evidence
Three days later, the trial was officially in session.Leo's attorney was practically defenseless because the York family's allegations of him poisoning Joseph had been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Leo was directly sentenced to life in prison.Nathan's attorney, on the other hand, was clever. They tried everything they could to deflect Nathan's allegations.After the presiding judge evaluated the case, he looked up. "Does the plaintiff have any more evidence that the defendant, Nathan, intentionally killed someone?"Hank sat silently at the plaintiff's table.They could only provide evidence of the time when Nathan had tried to murder Hank. However, they had no evidence of Nathan being involved in the explosion on the island this time.Hank looked at Melanie in the audience. She was also frowningThe presiding judge's implication was well understood. Without more evidence, Nathan would not receive a life sentence…"The plaintiff simply does not have sufficient evidence to

Carson sighed. It was time to explain everything to Hank…Although Carson had spent a lot of time in Hank's hospital as Professor Marshall, and he would also tend to their men's wounds, as well as discuss a variety of topics with Hank, they had never acknowledged their relationship…Besides, Carson knew Hank hated him.Hank hated him for being heartless to his grandmother back then. That was why Hank changed his last name to Castillo instead of Yule…"Let's take Melanie back to rest. I'll explain the rest to you myself," Carson said. Hank had already figured out half of it."Grandpa, I'm not going back. I'll wait for the news here," Melanie said firmly.There was no sign of Jeffrey's corpse yet. She would wait until the rescue team confirmed that they could not find any corpse.She wanted a clear answer."Okay. I'll get the trailer ready for you. You can lie down inside. You can't afford to hurt your body anymore than you already have. I checked your pulse earlier. It's not loo

Buzz!Melanie's vision turned black. She began falling backward."Melanie! Melanie!"Carson propped her up and called the doctor over.However, Melanie opened her eyes after a few seconds and tried to stand up. "I'm fine… Grandpa, take me there… I want to go to the scene of the explosion…""You're in no state…""I'm fine. I can hold up," Melanie promised."If you don't let me go and see it with my own eyes, I'll be even more paranoid," she added.Carson knew his granddaughter too well. He sighed and frowned before requesting for a ride. He met up with Hank. The two of them accompanied Melanie to look for Jeffrey.Jeffrey, Kenneth, Mr. Oliver, and Eagle waited at the drop-off point near the York family's residence. Nathan had instructed them to not do anything rash.Mr. Oliver and Eagle were still useful to Nathan.Once Nathan acquired Joseph's signature, he would meet up with them.However, the small hotel they were waiting at was already in ruins. There was smoke everywher

'Chief… Frankie?'Leo turned around in surprise. Nathan did the same. They saw Chief Frankie and several Interpol agents walking out from behind a screen in Joseph's room.Melanie was a part of that group!"Aren't you… dead?" Leo pointed at Melanie in shock."Thanks to you, I'll live a long life." Melanie sneered.Chief Frankie waved his hand. The police behind him charged forward to put handcuffs on Leo and Nathan. Leo narrowed his eyes and quickly pressed a button on the remote in his hand."We'll all die together!" He shouted.However, no matter how hard he pressed, nothing happened in the room."What's going on here… Eagle?" Leo's voice was trembling.His hands were cuffed, and the remote control was confiscated by the police."Leo, you are suspected of poisoning Master York and attempting to murder Melanie and others on the island. We are arresting you for premeditated murder!" Chief Frankie uttered calmly."No… No…" Leo struggled but to no avail. He had no idea what wa

At the same time, Melanie and Carson were on a plane with Professor Turner. They soon arrived at Medonia.Carson contacted Hank ahead of time and asked him to pick them up with his men.After the exhausting journey, Melanie's face was pale. She seemed to be in very poor condition. "I've already contacted the maternity hospital for you. You can go there and wait for your delivery. Leave the rest to me.""No…"Melanie shook her head. "I have to go back."Jeffrey was still in Nathan's hands. She would not be able to wait peacefully if she went to the hospital.Carson knew his granddaughter well enough. "Let her go. Professor Turner and I will be with here. We'll be ready for anything."Carson was still disguised as Maximilian. Hank did not know he was Carson. Hank nodded in agreement.“Mr. Castillo, there's something I need to trouble you with.” Melanie said."I heard from Professor Marshall that you're on good terms with the chief of Medonia's Interpol. Can I trouble him to be a

"Wait a minute! Isn't Jefford actually Jeffrey?" Leo asked while running after Nathan.Nathan ignored him and continued to walk forward.Leo did not give up and followed Nathan closely. "Who exactly is Jeffrey to you?""Are you being unreasonable right now? Why are you still so unsure at this point?" Nathan glanced at Leo contemptuously."I'm dealing with serious business. Don't get in my way with your petty romantic affairs!"After saying that, he glared at Leo and exited the cabin.Leo felt chills in his heart, but he could not make Nathan stay…-Jeffrey was tied up on the deck all this time. His body was freezing, and his lips were turning purple from the cold."Hey, President Morgan, fancy seeing you like this!" Nathan laughed grimly when he saw the miserable state Jeffrey was in."Thanks to you, I've been more miserable than this on many occasions. This is nothing." Jeffrey made it sound like a walk in the park."Hehe." Nathan sneered."I know. You've had strong willp

Lynette seemed stunned. She could not help but stand up with the help of the railing on the speedboat. Her eyes turned red as looked at the island burning in the distance. There was a look of disbelief on her face…If they had not evacuated five minutes ago…By now…She would not have even been able to breathe and think…The explosion sent shockwaves across the ocean's surface. The ride became even more bumpy. With sea water splashing against them, they had all become wet."Are you alright?" Carson protected Melanie. He was worried she would not be able to take it.Her stomach did feel awful, but she braced herself and tried not to tense up. Her emotions would affect her baby.When Lynette heard the voices behind her, she turned around to look at Melanie. Her gaze had become much softer than before. "You're not going to give birth on the boat, are you? I'm a woman, but I don't know how to be a midwife!""I won't give birth now. There are still things left to do," Melanie said.
