I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 264 Issuing a Challenge
Melanie slept well at the Gibson residence. The servants there were also very considerate, and everything in the room, from food to clothing, was prepared for her. The next afternoon, Cyrus took Melanie to attend the Angle family’s centennial celebration. In the car, Cyrus asked, "I heard that your grandfather was a skilled traditional medicine practitioner?" "You even found out about that?" Melanie expressed surprise. "Yes, my grandfather was a renowned local traditional medicine doctor. His house had a large courtyard filled with various medicinal herbs. I used to play there as a child and even sun-dried herbs with my grandfather." "Hmm..." Cyrus nodded thoughtfully. "With your grandfather around, even if someone in your family has health issues, it's like having a precious treasure in the family." Melanie didn't fully understand, and Cyrus didn't intend to explain. "During the celebration today, stick with me the whole time. Don't wander around, understand?" "Are you afr
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 265 The Final Medicinal Herb
Cyrus held considerable influence in the business world of Medonia. Moreover, he had cleverly transformed Charles’ so-called challenge into a competition between Medonia and Ustal, making it irrelevant whether the participants were from the York family or not. Everyone agreed with Cyrus, so Charles had no choice but to go along. Melanie was in a similar predicament and could only reluctantly participate. To ensure fairness, Melanie's twenty herbs were still selected by the five people who had chosen the medicinal herbs earlier. Cyrus stood at the end, placing the herbs into the last four boxes and closing the lid. "Inspection complete. Miss Jones, please begin your identification!" declared one of the judges. Melanie went to stand in front of the first box, took a deep breath, and focused her mind. Fortunately, she hadn't forgotten the knowledge she had accumulated from her time at her grandfather's house. She lowered her head to sniff and wrinkled her brow, saying, "Foul-s
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 266 I’m Protecting Ms. Melanie
The judge was already on stage, where the two contestants were standing in place.Melanie walked up to the stage with a feeling of helplessness. The other two contestants signaled that they were ready, upon which the sound signifying the countdown started.Melanie finished identifying the scents first.And then, in less than a minute, Medonia’s prodigy also finished his turn.The judge walked over to the card that they’d written their answers down on and confirmed the results, then announced, “The male candidate has misidentified three scents, while the female candidate has misidentified two scents. The final result: Ms. Melanie comes out on top!”“Congratulations, Elder Gibson! You managed to recruit a good disciple!” The judge couldn’t help but praise him.Cyrus also walked up the stage at the time and stood next to Melanie with a smile. “My disciple’s sense of smell is mainly focused on medicine, but she still doesn’t know much about fragrances. Thank you for your praise, ever
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 267 The Answer in One’s Heart
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier?!”When William saw how gloomy his boss’s face was, he couldn’t help but yell at his subordinate.The bodyguard didn’t dare to say another word. William turned around and looked at Jeffrey, “Boss, this is my mistake. I was thinking that it’ll be more convenient if I find someone with an unfamiliar face. He had just joined Morgan Group and didn’t know about the madam’s identity...”Jeffrey was unmoved as his mind continued to race.He had just personally seen the last contest and saw that the woman seemed to feel that something was wrong. With her abilities, it would be very easy for her to identify 20 fragrances. How could she get two wrong?That also wasn’t mentioning how his grandmother had asked him to come protect her. Was there something wrong with her being in the Yorks’ territory? He then remembered how Eliza and his grandmother were having coffee together. Was this something that Eliza had asked her to help with?Jeffrey had a thousand qu
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 268 Swap
Jeffrey quietly closed the door and sat in the lounge next door.After a while, William came back and reported, “You’re right, boss. After the servant left the lounge, she immediately went to report back to Joseph York. And then, the butler dispatched his subordinate to the paternity lab to conduct a paternity test...”“However, they didn’t exchange hands throughout the entire process. I couldn’t swap out whatever that the servant took from the madam in the lounge. However, I’ve made arrangements at the paternity lab so that we can swap it at the end.”Jeffrey nodded in agreement. “As long as the result that the Yorks receive is not what they want. As for how you achieve that... It’s up to you.”“Understood.”William received his order before asking, “Why don’t you go in, boss?”“Let her get some rest.”Jeffrey said with his lips formed a faint smile.“Sir, the Yorks have heard that you’re here and would like to invite you to sit with them...” William asked Jeffrey for his opi
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 269 Recurring Nightmare
“Mm...”When Melanie got a kiss instead of the answer she expected, she was stunned for a second before pushing the man away. Jeffrey slowed for a little, locking his eyes with hers. He then said with an urgent tone, “I’m sorry.”Melanie had just wanted to say that she wasn’t having any of his nonsense, but the love in Jeffrey’s eyes coupled with his apologies devoured her, and she simply let him kiss her as they slowly moved toward the sofa.“This is just a lounge...” She tried to tell him her worries when she had a moment to catch her breath.“William’s guarding the outside,” he explained to her.They had finally moved over to the sofa when William’s voice came from the outside. “Boss, the Yorks have delivered the banquet invitation to you for tonight, and I need a response. Will you be attending tonight?”Jeffrey paused, his hand still behind Melanie’s head. He asked, almost growling, “Are you going?”“I am.”“Then I’ll be going!”Jeffrey yelled at the door as he raised his
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 270 A Murder
Melanie quickly hid her worries and calmed Cyrus down. “Don’t worry. This time, it’s a genuine blackout.”And about a minute later, the hall’s lights were back on.The person managing the banquet hall awkwardly explained, “I’m so sorry, everyone. That blackout was a surprise, but our backup generator has been activated. There won’t be any more problems after this. Please, continue.”“Let’s continue, then.”On stage, Joseph York was the most highly regarded of them all. When he suggested they all continue with the signing ceremony, all of them exchanged a glance and realized that something was wrong.“Charles!”“Master?”“What’s going on?!”Melanie, Joseph and the other two patriarchs all screamed out.Melanie was holding Cyrus tightly in her hand, only to see him collapse in the chair as his entire body went numb, his mouth twitching...“Doctor! Somebody, get a doctor over here now!”Melanie screamed as she held Cyrus’s body. At this time, Cyrus’s assistant also ran up to th
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 271 Two Murderers
On stage, Cyrus was still lying on the stretcher that was temporarily moved here. He could already feel his muscles while Melanie and his personal assistant were guarding him.Melanie could feel the chill down her spine. She knew that it was legal to have a taser gun here, but she didn’t expect that she would be a witness to an assassination, especially when the murderer was so close to her and Elder Gibson!She raised her eyes and looked at everyone that was on stage.Joseph was sitting in his wheelchair, remaining still throughout the entire ordeal.Charles was already dead, and his corpse had been moved off stage by his servants.The other two families left were the Murrays and the Romero. The former had a steelwork-focused business while the latter started their family fortune through medicine. The patriarchs of both the families were confused, started by Charles’s butler.“We’ve already called the police! If we can’t find the murderer that killed my master, none of you can l
