“Leo’s the one that protected the key evidence with his men, which proved my theory right. Otherwise, the test result for the silicon would have been changed. I believe that I owe him thanks for that,” Melanie explained.

“Oh?”

Joseph turned around and gave Leo a glance. “You’re being attentive for once!”

He paused a little before turning around and said, “But it’s all useless. The culprit surrendered himself while you were on your way to the station. Even without the test results, Melanie is innocent!”

“You’re right. Cough.”

Leo nodded gently, pushing the wheelchair from behind.

Joseph turned around and looked at Melanie before saying, “There’s no need to thank him. You youths have your own rules, so you can talk about it on your own. For now, let us eat.”

“Sure.”

Melanie nodded while Leo gave her a faint smile.

She suddenly realized that the atmosphere was a little awkward. She turned around and saw Jeffrey frowning very deeply.

She wanted to slow down and wait for him, sens

    The ending of a banquet was the start of another with a different reason.Melanie was getting tired of it, and for some reason Cyrus and Jeffrey weren’t with her.Joseph told his men to take her to a room for some rest and prepared several sets of outfit for her to change into, but she wasn’t that happy and simply went downstairs after fixing her makeup.The York’s old butler bent over while he was pushing Joseph’s wheelchair and said, “Sir, everything’s ready. Later, Miss Melanie will personally thank Leo. Leo will then take her to the next building. The atmosphere will be just nice.”Joseph’s lips formed a wry smile as he ordered, “Keep an eye on Jeffrey.”“He’s not here. Something seemed to have happened and he left the island to deal with it,” the butler said.Joseph nodded. “Then keep an eye on that dock and don’t let him return!”“Understood!”Melanie went downstairs and chatted for a while, and looked around. She then asked one of the servants, “Where’s your young master

    Cyrus asked for a doctor’s visit and a checkup, and then released the news that he was sick.No one suspected anything because he was electrocuted back at the festival. The elder decided to stay indoors for the next seven days, and told all the servants to be quiet about it.Seven days later.Jeffrey sent Melanie and Cyrus to the airport to fly back to their home country. He had some other arrangements in Medonia, so he needed to stay for two more days.After checking in, Melanie and Cyrus waited in the VIP lounge for their flight. She didn’t expect to see Olivia and her family there.When Olivia saw Melanie, she quickly took out her makeup kit to fix her makeup.Once she was sure she was beautiful, she pretended to walk over and notice them before greeting them. “Ah, isn’t this Melanie? You’re taking this flight back home too?”Cyrus pursed his lips and said, “We’re not blind, you know. We saw you powdering your face in front of a mirror just now.”Olivia was speechless.Mela

    “How can I not know when you’ve hired people to protect me?”Melanie raised her eyes before saying, “Not to mention that my master told me that I have a sense of smell no weaker than those from the Yorks. If they can’t have me, then we might end up as enemies. Naturally, I have to be prepared.”“I see...”Elize let out a sigh of relief, worried that the intelligent daughter of hers would notice something.“But visiting the Yorks isn’t a waste of time. I can see that the Jones Enterprise’s perfume department has recently signed two large contracts and they’re both overseas businesses that I’ve known from the Yorks’ festival. It’s worth it,” Melanie said, trying to calm things down.“Two contracts aren’t worth your safety,” Elize said with a sigh. “All I want is for you to stay safe. I’m not afraid of living a hard life.”Melanie smiled, hiding the sorrow in her eyes.“Oh, by the way, the Hans are back in town. Did you know that?” Melanie asked.Eliza nodded. “The Romeros want to

    Melanie drove Quincy’s car and sent him home.In the car, she couldn’t help praising him. “It has only been so long, but you’ve really impressed me!”Quincy waved his hand. “When I formed the medical department overseas, not only did I handle research and development, I also managed the business side of things. I learned these things eventually. Right, how did you and Mr. Luis get to know each other? From what I heard, it seemed like a lot of things had happened during the Angle Family’s Centennial Celebration.”“Stop being so curious.”Melanie didn’t answer his question directly. “I can bet that you don’t want to know about it.”After pausing for a moment, she asked, “What about the cycling competition? How’s the preparation?”Quincy straightened up and said, “ Jones Enterprise will only be providing basic first aid and will only be deployed during an emergency. Of course, the preparation went smoothly. From what I see, the Hans aren’t really that professional and the Romeros ar

    Mrs. Hans smiled happily when she heard what Olivia said. “My daughter has matured.” “Of course I have, especially after going through so much,” Olivia said smugly as she twirled a lock of hair around her finger. “I even found out that Mr. York has been a germaphobe since he was a child, and is a clean freak! A woman like Melanie, with a lawsuit on her hands, is definitely someone so filthy to him that he wouldn’t even glance her way! He’ll find her dirty!”Mrs. Hans’s eyes narrowed. “In that case, I need to pay a little more to cover up your records.”The mention of her being jailed overseas made Olivia grit her teeth in anger and shame. “It’s all Melanie’s fault! She’s always the reason why I get humiliated! Mom, don’t you worry. This time, I’m fully prepared to settle all scores with her once and for all!”“We’ll wait for your good news, then,” Mrs. Hans said, feeling assured with her daughter at the helm of things.-On Saturday night, Melanie told the driver to send her

    After hearing Melanie out, Annie chuckled over the phone. “Someone’s getting in hot soup this time!”“This is the price for provoking me the moment she returned to Harbor City. Consider it a generous gift from me,” Melanie said indifferently.“Melanie’s unique gift of a harsh lesson. It’ll be a kicker!” Annie hung up with a chuckle.Melanie kept her phone and went to the washroom to freshen her makeup before emerging once more looking fabulous.Things were warming up in the banquet. Even Olivia, who had been trying to keep a low profile since the banquet, started to flaunt around like a peacock, exuding irrepressible charm.That was because a big shot had just arrived at the banquet hall.Melanie turned to see the impeccably clean and neat-looking man. She didn’t expect to see Leo York here.Leo looked even fairer and lankier from afar. He occasionally coughed into a napkin, looking like he was unwell.Many grandchildren of the Yorks died early, while those who managed to survi

    Olivia’s arms were crossed, doubtful that Melanie could ruin her plan.She had long paid people to suppress subsequent news of Melanie being cleared of suspicion and the true culprit confessing to his crime from various websites. It was impossible for anyone to find anything.Others had no idea what Melanie was doing, either.Leo signaled for his subordinate to step forward as he issued him an order, “Prepare an explanation for Melanie Jones so she doesn’t embarrass herself before the business circle in Harbor City.”“Yes, sir!” the subordinate immediately responded. “This trip was absolutely necessary. But sir, have you thought of how you want to deal with her?”Leo’s eyes narrowed. “Since Grandpa wants me to please her, I’ll do just that. I don’t need to overthink. What’s more, Grandpa doesn’t seem to have a concrete idea on how to deal with her. He had the butler check on her background multiple times in secret.

Olivia was afraid the crew might catch up to her with cameras in hand, and rushed into the rain in hopes of hailing a cab without bothering to shield herself from the rain.When she finally reached home, her haute couture gown had become completely drenched. Her limited edition heels were completely ruined by the rain and mud. She looked completely disheveled and dreadful.Mrs. Hans comforted her daughter while keeping an eye on the storm brewing online.Olivia’s father, Nelson Hans, had been on the line with his brows furrowed, desperate to suppress all news about what happened to Olivia today.

    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

    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.
