I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 287 She’s Filthy
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
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 288 Need To Please her
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. I’m not sure what they’re plotting, but get your men to keep a clo
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 289 Playing With Their Lives
Olivia no longer had the nerve to stay on. She lifted the hem of her dress and fled the scene, her limited edition crystal heels instantly becoming a huge burden in her attempt to escape.It was raining outside the banquet hall. 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. Tomorrow was the first day of the mountain bike cross-country race. Many domestic and international bigwigs would have their eyes on the Hans family. If they were
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 290 Claiming Credit
Nelson was the main organizer, yet he didn’t understand the basic requirements of a mountain race. With this in mind, Melanie had to summarize the key points that she felt he would be able to understand or at least care about.“Have you considered the fact that the bikers will be racing on mountain roads, and that if it were to start raining in the next two hours, a mudslide might occur that might put the bikers’ lives in danger? If anything were to happen, would you and your men be able to drive in from the base camp to rescue the bikers in time?”Reason finally returned to Mr. Hans as he pondered over Melanie’s words. The risk she described did exist on Mount Coloss. This was the first mission Johnson Corporation tasked him with. He had to do a good job and claim credit for it. He couldn’t allow anything to go wrong under his watch.Nelson’s eyes narrowed as he waved his assistant over.“Announce to everyone that there might be rain in two hours’ time. Shorten the race by two
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 291 Extreme Weather
The mountain roads were difficult to drive on. It began raining two hours after Jones Enterprise’s vehicles entered the mountain, and the rain was escalating into a storm.The leading vehicle stopped on the road and informed the vehicles behind him, “Things are looking bad! We can’t drive on the roads ahead and can only walk.”“Miss Melanie, are you okay with that? Why don’t you return to the base camp and wait for our updates?” the leader asked.Melanie looked up the mountain, and said, “We need all the help we can get. Don’t worry, I have experience walking on mountain roads.”The leader nodded, and led everyone into the mountain with supplies on their backs.There were a total of six refreshment stations set up for this mountain race, and Quincy was assigned to the third one.The roads between the third and fourth refreshment points were the most rugged, with many steep rocky cliffs that were impossible for vehicles to pass. Rocks and sand covered the roads with no canopy ov
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 292 Stay Here, I’ll Go
The biker didn’t go on, but everyone else fell silent. Even people who were used to extreme sports feared matters of life and death. “Don’t worry, my colleague is already on his way to save them,” Melanie said, trying to comfort them.They weren’t far from the refreshment station, yet due to the terrible weather conditions and muddy ground, Melanie and her team took one hour to reach there, with the six bikers in tow.When they finally reached the tent of the refreshment station, which had been heavily battered by the storm and cold wind, the employees of Jones Enterprise quickly started up a fire and boiled some water to warm up the bikers.The bikers changed into clean thermal wear as they felt their body temperatures return to normal. The blood returned to their faces.After settling down the bikers, Melanie and her employees reorganized their supplies and headed off to find Quincy by following the map.After another half an hour, Melanie and her employees spotted some colorf
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 293 Secret Passage
Many hands make light work. The men in the water gradually arrived at a consensus, and order ensued amidst the chaos. Slowly, the heavy rock crushing the bikers started being lifted.Some of the men continued lifting the rock with all their might, while other men tried to rescue the bikers from the gap.The bodyguards of Morgan Group were well-trained in outdoor survival skills. They used rope and a makeshift stretcher to lift the badly-injured bikers up and out of the pit, while everyone else helped the bikers with minor injuries as they walked forward.“This is the midpoint between the two refreshment stations. Which of the two should we head to?” Quincy asked.“Let’s go back to the station we came from,” Melanie suggested. “We settled down six bikers there before coming here. Let’s go back and meet them.”Everyone nodded in agreement, and started the strenuous hour-long journey back to the refreshment station.After everyone’s energy was restored in the refreshment station, th
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 294 White Bones
An old woman sat before the vanity mirror, with a girl next to her. The girl looked to be slightly over 20 years old. The old woman had a head of white hair, donning a sheepskin robe with dyed embroidery flowers. At the man’s declaration, the old woman turned around and looked shocked at the sight of Melanie.Silence ensued for a few seconds, and Melanie took the chance to survey the old woman. Although she was advanced in years, her skin remained fair and dewy. Her eyes were crystal clear. She must have been an outstanding beauty when she was young, Melanie thought.After a while, the old woman composed herself. She stood up and walked toward Melanie. She held Melanie’s hand, and mumbled something. The young man standing next to her interpreted her words. “My mom asked if you’re injured?”“I’m not. The bikers are the injured ones.” Melanie pointed outside the window in a panic.The old woman mumbled a few more times, and the young man translated what she said again. “Don’t w
