Adam was kept busy with preparations for tomorrow’s show the moment he arrived at the hotel. Make-up trials, outfit tryouts, jewelry matching and stage rehearsals filled his schedule.It was only when he finally had time to eat that he heard about the organizers taking the liberty to find a new partner for him without his agreement—and it was the rich heiress of an organization he had never heard of in his life!He was sought-after by many and born for the stage, but he was also equally fearful of the stage. That was why it was a pursuit of perfection for him each time he appeared on stage. He would communicate in advance with the organizer of each and every event he made an appearance in, and he had to agree to the partner that the organizer had planned for him.This time round, they had agreed for the finale of the show to be his personal catwalk without a female partner. The last minute change made his blood boil!He snapped harshly, “I’m done with organizers who don’t know ho

Ms. Yancey stood stunned for a moment before turning back to look at Melanie.Melanie stepped forward upon realizing that she had been implicated in the issue.“Ms. Yancey,” she said, “I’m afraid this is all a misunderstanding. I don’t really understand it myself, but I heard Ms. Murray mention earlier about someone who thinks too highly of herself in wanting to be Adam’s partner, which was what angered Adam. Was she referring to me?”“This was a misunderstanding to begin with.”Ms. Yancey couldn’t be bothered to spare a glance at Kelly. She looked at Melanie, before her gaze landed on Adam. “I can promise you that no one is able to stuff a partner down your throat without getting your express permission. As such, you can catwalk at tomorrow’s show with peace of mind.”“That’s great! We similarly look forward to our first collaboration with you, Ms. Yancey,” Adam’s manager chimed in at just the right time.“What I’m most concerned about right now is whether Melanie Jones is wil

“This question again?” Linda looked at Melanie with a smile, her eyes twinkling. “You really feel a strong affinity with me, don’t you?”Melanie’s face remained unchanged. She looked patiently at Linda, waiting for the latter’s answer.There seemed to be no reasonable explanation for the many coincidences between them. However, Melanie clearly remembered being rescued by a mysterious stranger from the fire at the York’s estate. When she was unconscious, the mother of that little boy once said that she knew that she was pregnant… Since Melanie saved that little boy, said woman would do all she could to protect the mother and child.Wasn’t everything that Linda was doing to protect Melanie and her child?!“I feel a strong affinity with you, too. It feels just marvelous!” Linda said.Melanie wasn’t surprised. She didn’t expect Linda to give her a genuine answer anyway.However, Linda’s vague answers to her questions were enough for Melanie to pinpoint the problem. Melanie smiled,
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 428 A Smart Person
The bodyguard standing behind Linda said, “Ms. Yancey, we’ve called the police. They’re on their way here.”“What use will they be?” Linda shrieked, clearly displeased. The police would come, open the case, interrogate suspects and investigate the matter. Even if they manage to find the stolen diamonds, so what?Could her show wait till then?“Melanie, what do you mean?”Linda was pinning all her hopes on Melanie. Melanie sniffed out the entire safe thoroughly, and turned around to say, “I smell a lingering scent on the safe, which smells like a mix of perfume and tobacco. If you can gather everyone here and line them up with a gap in between each person, I’ll be able to quickly pinpoint who touched that safe. That’ll make the matter easier to investigate.”Linda’s eyes lit up. “How could I forget the talent that you are?”She chuckled, and instructed the bodyguard behind her, “Make everyone line up and await checks!”“Yes!”The bodyguards split up to maintain an orderly qu

“What makes you so sure?”Linda’s right-hand man was puzzled.Melanie saw the curious look on Linda’s face, and explained, “When Adam lost his temper last night and you scolded Mr. Wright in front of everyone, he smelled only of tobacco. Not this brand of cologne that he was wearing just now.“I suppose it’s because he must have been very busy preparing for the show over the past few days, and didn’t bother with his usual luxuries.“When you called him and Kelly over to explain themselves, I paid close attention and noticed that he hadn’t applied any cologne at that time. However, I also noticed a faint smell of cologne after he queued up. He’s smarter than Kelly, and used only a little to create the impression that he had applied the cologne much earlier on.“But no matter how faint the scent is, a professional will be able to pick up the top note mixed with a bit of the middle note instead of the base note, which should be present had he applied the cologne much earlier on.”“I

Melanie and Annie followed Linda’s right-hand man backstage.Adam had his makeup on, and had changed into his outfit for the runway. A yellow diamond larger than the size of a pigeon’s eggs hung before his bare chest. The yellow diamond looked exquisitely cut and was surrounded by pave diamonds which looked like stars accentuating the beauty of the moon, yet not stealing the limelight of the yellow diamond featured in the middle.The Sun and Moon collection was indeed dazzling and mesmerizing.“I see that you’ve found it!” Melanie exclaimed.Linda smiled. “I did, all thanks to you!”“I had my men secretly follow Mr. Wright who, as we suspected, wanted to flee with the diamonds. He even had plane tickets booked. We restrained his wife and child and lay in wait for him at his house. It was a breeze finding the Sun and Moon collection after that!” Linda’s right-hand man looked admiringly at Melanie. “Our men all praised Miss Melanie for her brilliant idea, which saved us from m

No one knew if Linda truly agreed with Jeffrey or was being strong-armed into agreeing with him. That famous photographer was quickly located and dragged over, and they all began discussing Jeffrey’s proposal.With Linda and Jeffrey physically present, the photographer had no choice but to agree with it.While Melanie and Adam were still partnering up during the next photographing session, the two of them had almost zero physical interaction.During the interval, Melanie would occasionally peek at that visitor who had come uninvited from her place on the stage. She would intentionally narrow her eyes, hoping that he would see her death stare.A few hours later, the photographing session ended.Jeffrey’s car was waiting outside.Melanie immediately got in and asked, “Where’s Annie?”“I had someone send her back to the hotel first,” Jeffrey said. He had already arranged everything properly so that they could have some private time to talk.“Isn’t it a bit too risky for you to come over t

“It’s a long story.”Jeffrey had a mixed expression on his face as he paused and said, “When you’re free later, I’ll tell you the story between my parents.”“I’m free now,” Melanie said. She wanted to listen to it.All she knew was that the Morgan Group had been under the control of Jeffrey’s grandfather. Only after his passing did Jeffrey inherit his authority. Jeffrey’s grandfather’s only son had two sons, and the oldest son was Stephen’s father. It was said that he was sickly and had been staying overseas for a long time for the sake of his health. As a result, his presence in the company was very lacking.However, the only son of Jeffrey’s grandfather, who was also Jeffrey’s father, was almost invisible. It was said that Jeffrey’s grandfather disliked him a lot, which was why he passed the power over the family straight to his grandson, Jeffrey.Jeffrey had never mentioned his parents to her, so Melanie was naturally very curious about it. She couldn’t wait to hear more about

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.
