When the nurse heard her voice, she quickly held Melanie down and said, “Don’t move. Your body is still very weak.”“Where’s my child?” Melanie asked, the desire to know burning in her eyes.“In the observation room,” the nurse answered.At this time, Gabriel and Professor Turner quickly walked into the room as well. Melanie’s tears immediately started flowing, and she grabbed the professor’s sleeves, asking, “Professor, my child... How is he?”“Lie down and listen to me.”Melanie only lay down quietly with Professor Turner consoling her.“You put yourself in grave danger by giving birth to him. The premature birth doesn’t affect him that much, but unfortunately, he inherited your heart disease. That’s why he’ll need to stay in the observation room. You won’t be able to see him for the time being,” the professor said, trying his best to slow down his speech.Melanie’s heart sank.She had thought about how this could happen and had prepared for it as well; this was because she k
Looking at Melanie’s doubtful eyes, Gabirel hesitantly asked, “You said someone picked you up and took you to the hospital? Who was it?”Melanie lowered her eyes and didn’t answer him.She couldn’t tell them.“I was queuing up to get you a hot drink at the time, so I thought you were still in the car. When the bodyguard came back with the mechanic, he’d actually thought that we were both in the car... He didn’t realize anything until you were in trouble, and I only realized that you'd disappeared when I went back...”When Gabriel talked about what happened back then, he still felt guilty and blamed himself. “I didn’t take good care of you... I’m sorry...”“I’ve already scolded him a few times in the past few days!”The professor was also quite angry about it. When he first heard about how Melanie had a premature birth, he was so shocked that he dropped the teacup in his hand and burnt his knee as a result...Luckily he managed to book a flight on that night itself to get over he
Melanie wasn’t exactly doing nothing in the past month as well.After she had slightly recovered, she was already continuing her work with Gabriel.But when she opened her equipment pack where she stored her needles, she saw a small pouch in there.While the pouch was small, the patterns on it were quite exquisite. The pattern was a picture of a flying phoenix, and it looked quite impressive.“What’s this?” she asked.“Isn’t this yours?” Gabriel said curiously.Melanie picked up the pouch and found that there was something hard inside.How could it be hers? She hadn’t touched the needles for at least half a month.“Could it be the professor’s?” she asked.Professor Turner was the one that had been conducting the therapy in her place during this time.“No.” Gabriel shook his head. “When the professor first opened the bag and saw it, he also asked me when you put this thing here...”Melanie blinked.She opened the pouch and found a small jade ring the size of a thumb inside.
“That’s right. I hope that the investigators can give us a conclusion soon,” Annie said in agreement.“One more thing. Annie, can you check if the Yanceys have any family heirloom or something similar? It has to be something very important.”Annie nodded. At this time, one of the staff from the first floor yelled, “Doctor Melanie? You have a friend coming to see you.”Friend?The three of them came out of the room curiously.Melanie had just appeared behind the second floor’s railing when the man on the first floor raised his head and yelled out to her excitedly.“Miss Melanie...!”“Quincy? What are you doing here? Why didn’t you inform me beforehand?” Melanie was also excited and went downstairs to greet him.William and Annie left, leaving some space for them to chat.“I’m here in Delfino for work. Originally, my schedule was quite tight, and I had no time for private matters. But suddenly, our partner didn’t show up, so I suddenly had two hours to visit you... and the boss
Melanie had a bad feeling about it.She recalled the time after she got back from the mountains. Jeffrey’s leg was injured for a long time, and his injuries were far worse than hers.But he had his bodyguards protecting him... How did he get hurt so badly?...She suddenly had a headache. The thoughts for Jeffrey that she had been suppressing so much instantly burst out, and all the tears started to pour forth...At the time, they hadn’t told each other of their love yet...Could it be that... He had been protecting her since then? Why didn’t he tell her anything? Why? Why did she only find out about it now?Quincy had heard about her relationship with Jeffrey. Seeing how emotional she had become, he stood up and said, “I need to see another client in the evening. I feel much better after seeing you. I’ll be leaving now.”“I’m sorry... About that... I need to confirm something, so I won’t ask you to stay any longer,” Melanie got up to see him off.“Please, there’s no need for
Before returning to the country, Professor Turner did a detailed genetic analysis on Melanie.She wanted to do it after giving birth to her boy, but the professor said that the test wouldtoll as well, so it was best for her to fully recover first.But because she wanted to go back, the professor carried out the test early.Seven hours later, they finally saw the result of the analysis.Professor Turner gave her the report. “Someone did something to your birthmark...” “This is... During my heart transplant surgery...?”Melanie first looked at the time it was planted. It matched the time that she had the heart transplant.However, it was filled with digits and special symbols. She looked at it curiously and asked, “What are these things, professor?”“Looks like I’ll have to arrange for you to get familiar with advanced medicine...”The professor took the report in his hand and explained it to her, but she still asked suspiciously after listening, “That means even you don’t know
“Do you still remember it? The fragrance that I shared at the International Fragrance Gathering? The unique perfume that I made for my friend.”When Melanie talked about that perfume, everyone in the meeting room glanced at each other.“Miss Melanie... The perfume had an extremely high demand in the market at the time. We even asked for your opinion about this. But didn't you say that the perfume is for your own private collection and won’t be marketed to the general public?” her personal assistant asked.Melanie narrowed her eyes...The reason that she wanted to save it was because she wanted to give it to Jeffrey.She didn’t want anyone else to share it with him.Or rather... She didn’t want to share his scent with anyone else.But he wasn’t around anymore. Suddenly, she wanted everyone in the world to know just how much she loved him.If the entire world knew about it, would he feel it on the other side?Melanie opened her eyes and spoke in a determined voice.“I’ve alread
“Are you still the same fragrance blending prodigy that I know?”Melanie got closer with a smile and looked at Gabriel in disbelief.“What? Even if I’ve changed my outfit, I haven’t forgotten who I am.” Gabriel couldn’t help smiling in return.Melanie didn’t waste her time and spent the entire day in a meeting. Gabriel didn’t stay idle and changed his style as well.He switched out his discreet and cold outfit. His hair was wilder and he even dyed his hair and wore a suit the color of avocado green... All so he could get her to smile.And he did it.Gabriel opened the trunk for Melanie and helped her with her things. Then, he opened the car door for her. He didn’t forget to ask, “Am I handsome?”“You are.”Melanie smiled again. “Those that don’t know might think that you’re going to debut as an idol.”Gabriel got into the car from the other side.Melanie looked at him. He had styled himself so well. Curiously she asked, “What happened to you? You want to have a new life?”“J
