“Seeing that you’re so young, you probably don’t have much of a track record. But there must be a few cases that can wow us, right? Otherwise, where did you get your title as a prodigy? Don’t tell me you called yourself that?” Yvonne asked with a sneer.“Now that I’m here, I’m hoping that my treatment of Young Master Frost can be my first case that can wow others,” Melanie replied.“Ha!”Yvonne smiled coldly. “You speak well, but Gabriel is a pitiful boy. He lost his mother not long after he was born. I personally raised him. I will not allow anyone to hurt him, even if you’re using treatment as an excuse!”“She has no reason to hurt me.”Suddenly, someone called out from above.The people on the sofa looked up and saw Gabriel slowly walking down the staircase.Gabriel nodded and walked over to Melanie, smiling. “You really did find a way to treat me?”Melanie nodded. “I’ll try my best.”“You know each other, Gabriel?” Mr. Frost asked, confused.Gabriel explained, “She’s the
“Even then, it doesn’t concern you.”Gabriel detested how Yvonne acted and protected Melanie the best he could. “If you aren’t willing to raise your own nephew, you will never consider another person’s child, right?”Yvonne was stunned.She was angered yet again. She glanced at Mr. Frost who was standing next to her, only to see him looking at her with a gloomy expression. She wanted to argue back but decided to shut up.All those years ago when Gabriel’s mother passed away, Mr. Frost was busy with the family business and wanted Yvonne, who was staying at home, to take care of him.However, Yvonne’s attitude toward Gabriel was even worse than the nanny that took care of him. It was so bad that Gabriel swore to leave the family as soon as possible. She had a hand in everything that made him refuse to have anything to do with them.And now that Gabriel was finally back, Yvonne knew that she had to control herself.However, who the hell was this Melanie?Last year, a niece from Yv
Gabriel was the VIP of the party.As the only scion of the Frost family, he had never shown himself in any of his family’s parties. Now that Mr. Frost had announced his return publicly, all the guests understood what he wanted to say.Soon, Mr. Frost would retire, and all the Frost family’s assets would become his. Naturally, everyone would try to get on Gabriel’s good side.He was surrounded by a group of people as they chatted. When it was time to dance, he also had no lack of dance partners.Luckily, Melanie wasn’t feeling well, and so she sat in the corner. The servants had prepared her healthy food and fruit juice that were suitable for pregnant women. She looked around, planning to take a bite before leaving.It was at this time that there was a commotion at the entrance.She heard several female guests begin to chit-chat excitedly. “Look! That’s the scion of the Yancey family! He is even more invisible than Master Gabriel all these years!”“That’s right. I heard that he o
What did he say?Melanie held her back and looked at Master Yates, the focus in her eyes slowly dissipating.His disdainful laughter and sneer carved her heart into pieces. The pain was unbearable.When the scion saw that she still refused to leave, the disdain in his expression became even deeper. “What? You’re forcing me to dance? Fine, but I don’t like such a slow melody. If we’re dancing, let’s do the samba. Come on!”And then, he got close to her and grabbed her arm.Dancing the samba would require having to twist her waist without stopping. How could she do that when she was in her late stages of pregnancy? But he wanted her to dance the samba...Why?Melanie’s mind was thrown into chaos. She hit his hand away as everyone watched and simply left as quickly as possible while holding her belly. Only after she reached the end of the corridor leading to the washroom did she start to gasp for air while she had her back against the wall.As she gasped, she couldn’t help but cry
Jeffrey’s father and Stephen’s father had once been with a woman from the Yates family and she had given birth to a child.But strangely, after both Jeffrey and Stephen were born, their mothers went back to the Yates and never contacted the Morgans ever again.They didn’t want to see their children even once.That could explain why Jeffrey and Stephen looked alike. That was because... Not only did they have the same genes from the Morgans, they also inherited half their genes from the Yates.Speaking of which, Jeffrey was also the grandson of the Yates’ old matron.And that scion from the Yates family called Jefford Yates in the party... His age, his appearance, and even his behavior were all similar to Jeffrey. Even if there were some minor differences, she believed that they were one and the same!Not to mention... How could things be such a coincidence?It had been almost two months since Jeffrey had passed away, and this was around the time that the Yates’ scion who hadn’t a
“You...”Melanie looked at the man in front of her tearfully. She couldn’t even finish her sentence, feeling that she was going to faint from the pain soon.But she didn’t know if it was from her pregnancy or from her heart.The man didn’t fake his indifference about this. He was sneering at her, as if trying to expose a cheating woman who had nothing to do with him...But he was Jeffrey!How could he do that to her?!“Melanie!”Before she fainted, Gabriel finally rushed over and picked her up like a princess using both his arms. That pair of once-aloof eyes were filled with fury as he stared at Jefford, who didn’t feel anything from this at all.“Looks like you really do have a lot of love to share around.” Jefford’s eyes were still full of disdain.“I’m warning you, if anything happens to her, I’ll have you pay it back twofold!” Gabriel threatened him before turning around and running to the elevator.“I’ll take you to the professor right away. Just hold on. We’re almost th
Melanie, Gabriel, and Professor Turner all turned to the door.They saw a servant come in with a tray with medicine that the professor prescribed for Melanie. Yvonne came in as soon as the servant opened the door.Behind them, Mr. Frost walked in with a young woman.The moment they came in, a strong perfume smell rushed in from the outside. Melanie couldn’t help but frown.“What are you doing here?” Gabriel asked unhappily as he stared at Yvonne.“I heard that Doctor Melanie fainted, causing everyone at the party to get nervous. I’m here to see how she’s doing,” Yvonne answered in a strange tone.“Is the doctor alright?” Mr. Frost asked.“She’s fine. She just needs some quiet and rest,” Gabriel answered.Mr. Frost knew what Gabriel wanted to say and he quickly told everyone, “Since Doctor Melanie needs some rest, let’s all go.”“What do you mean go, brother? The doctor is here, but she herself got sick before she could even give treatment. Are you really okay with...” Yvonne p
"What nonsense is this? You’re shameless!"Sonia gritted her teeth, as if she couldn't stand Gabriel getting pricked in the buttocks with a needle. "Practicing medicine isn't the same as being a rogue. Miss Sullivan, have you ever been to the gynecologist?" Melanie asked calmly. Sonia's face turned red. "Miss Sullivan. If you insist on seeing me treat Gabriel with your own eyes, sure. You’re welcome to watch me do so in a couple of days. There’s more than one acupuncture point. In fact, everyone can come and watch, and I'll insert the needle into the Support Meridian last," Melanie said. She knew Sonia wasn’t the only one who was worried. Mr. Frost was probably the one who worried most. She could only settle with the Frosts by letting them witness her acupuncture treatment. "Well then, we won't stand on ceremony," Yvonne said unkindly. Melanie smiled. "Then let's meet in Gabriel's room three days later." She gave the order to leave, and Mr. Frost finally took Yvonne and
