"Miss Yancey..." Milo also looked toward Linda, leaving a trailing remark in a timely manner.

He was implying that if Jefford wasn’t supposed to come with Linda, he could ask Jefford to leave.

"The people from the Yancey family are quite interesting..." Greg said with a smirk.

Linda concealed a hint of embarrassment and anger in her eyes. She was good at being composed, which was her usual demeanor. "Haha, let me introduce him to everyone. This is Jefford, my nephew. I asked him to come here."

As she spoke, Linda glanced at Jefford, who was approaching, and said to him, "What took you so long? Yet, you're blaming me for arriving first."

"There was some trouble on the road, hence the delay. I'll punish myself with a drink!" Jefford walked to the last empty seat and sat down, pouring himself a drink.

"Mr. Yancey, you sure are straightforward!" Milo chuckled.

Melanie looked at Jefford. She didn't understand why he suddenly appeared here.

    After leaving Linda, Jeffrey secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The slaps from Linda just now had drenched him in sweat. A few deep wounds still hadn't healed, causing a lingering pain. However, the pain kept him clear-headed. It was likely that the one who bribed Nathan's assassins to kill him was none other than his dear aunt. Linda was more eager to tear their relationship apart openly. This made Jeffrey even more cautious. Not only did he have to guard against Linda making another attempt on his life, but he also had to be wary of her targeting the people he cared about. He composed himself and returned to the dining room. As soon as he stepped inside, he sensed the tense atmosphere. Greg had someone prepare a special cocktail for Melanie, but before she could speak, Hank naturally said, "She's allergic to cocktails." Jeffrey's steps paused and secretly clenched his teeth. Hank even knew about her dietary restrictions! Having just seen Linda outside the restaur

    Melanie's long eyelashes trembled slightly. It seemed that Greg had informants everywhere here. Even if they left this room, he knew every move of the people at the table. She was worried for Jefford. Yet, she saw that Jefford remained calm, his eyes showing no hint of panic. "Is it strange?" Jeffrey calmly asked in return. "Milo is a good host. As soon as you step out of the door, you can see the restroom sign." "Oh?" Greg smirked. "Am I so inattentive? Last time I went out, I didn't see any sign." "There is indeed one." Milo smiled. Greg laughed heartily on purpose. "I thought you had been here before, Mr. Yancey." "Never." Jeffrey replied with a steady, polite smile, "But this place is so nice. I'll come more often in the future." "You're always welcome. Your frequent visits would be an honor for Heaven on Earh." Milo raised his glass and clinked it with Jeffrey's. Melanie secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Jefford remained calm and logical. How

    Melanie hurriedly fled from the pink-lit private room. Just as she was about to catch her breath, she caught sight of the gilded door next door, guarded by Heaven on Earth's bodyguards. Jefford had just taken that woman through this door. Inside, he and that woman were... Her heart suddenly tightened. She didn't dare linger and quickly walked into the restroom, clenching her fists. She locked the restroom door. Leaning on the sink, she took several deep breaths. The cold marble felt as icy as her heart, yet it wasn't enough to clear her mind. She turned on the cold-water tap, splashing her face with the freezing water. Suddenly, the rushing sound of water stopped abruptly. Someone had turned off the tap! Melanie looked up in shock, her eyes meeting Jefford's face in the mirror! He was standing right behind her! Melanie quickly turned around, her eyes wide. "You... aren't you supposed to be..." "Why are you and Hank so close? What is your relationship with him?

    The voice outside the door was like a bolt from the blue! It instantly shattered the amorous atmosphere in the restroom. Jeffrey's movements halted abruptly, and Melanie shuddered. She quickly cleared her throat and said, "I'm fine. I'll be out soon." She jumped down from the sink but was caught by the man who encircled her in his arms. "What exactly is your relationship with Hank? Why does he treat you this way?" "I...” Melanie sighed helplessly. Explaining now that she and Hank shared the same grandfather was too complicated... "We’re friends. It’s not what you think," she simply assured. "He knows you very well. He’s more than just a regular friend!" He had a look that said she couldn't leave today until she clarified everything. "You’re overthinking it. I'll explain later. I really need to get back, or they'll get suspicious. You should go back too." Melanie pushed him away and started straightening her clothes. Jeffrey frowned. It was the first time he had seen a

    The atmosphere suddenly shifted. Greg and Hank were feeling awkward a moment ago, but now they both glanced at Jefford. There was someone who felt more awkward than Greg and Hank now, making the situation even more interesting. Linda sneered in the shadows. Milo silently exclaimed in awe. He never expected that Jefford would get involved in this mess. It was truly interesting! Everyone was watching the spectacle and enjoying his embarrassment, but Jeffrey didn't care. He just looked at Melanie in disbelief. Even if she had reasons before to temporarily stay with Hank, now that she was healed, she should have explained everything clearly. Hank kept claiming that she was his person, completely disregarding her dignity. Was she still planning to go back with him? What would Hank do to her if she did? Jeffrey was also a man, so he understood men. After this banquet that was aimed to destroy them, it would definitely ignite Hank's possessiveness. If he had any respect for

    "Why did you need to talk in private?" When Melanie and Linda entered the room, Greg asked arrogantly in his seat. "Girl talk." Linda smiled coyly. "Mr. Hardy, I came today to let you know I'm safe. Last time I left, I was unconscious and couldn't say goodbye to you. This time I wanted to make up for it," Melanie said sincerely after composing herself. "You’re already here, and yet you still want to say goodbye to me?" Greg had hoped Linda would persuade Melanie to stay, so he was somewhat disappointed. "Yes." Melanie nodded decisively. "I have patients who need my care. I don't belong here. I hope my presence tonight hasn't spoiled anyone's mood." "But I also have illnesses. My lungs are bad, and I have heart problems. You know this, don't you? I could also be your patient." Greg made a final effort. "Mr. Hardy, you have a prestigious status and surely no shortage of professional doctors to serve you. My patients need my unique acupuncture to recover. They really need me

    Three days later, Melanie, Alex, and Caleb returned to the temporary hospital. The car they were in was tinted. They sat in the back seat, unable to see any scenery along the way. By the time the car stopped and they got out, they were already inside the temporary hospital. Melanie understood that this was to prevent anyone from revealing the location of the temporary hospital. After Nathan's recent assassination attempt, Hank had tightened the management of the temporary hospital even further. Professor Marshall was very happy to see Melanie return safely. He even had the hospital kitchen prepare some bread for her. On the first night after her return, at dawn after her night shift, the two of them ate bread in the cafeteria. It was considered a small welcoming party for her. "Are you full already?" Professor Marshall looked at Melanie and urged her kindly, "Have some more." His tone was like that of a typical elder urging someone to eat. Melanie reluctantly quickened he

    "You are a doctor yourself, so you should understand that not feeling hungry doesn't mean you can skip meals." Professor Marshall emphasized with a stern face, "Go eat now. Oh, by the way, I'm planning to go home in the next two days. What are your plans?" Melanie was surprised for a second but then quickly understood. They had been at the temporary hospital for two months, and she had heard that no new patients would be admitted in the near future, so it was indeed time to leave. "I came here with you. If you're leaving, why would I stay?" Melanie replied. "I thought you were so absorbed that you'd want to stay and continue studying the old cases," Professor Marshall teased. "When are you leaving? I'll go with you. I also feel that my health hasn't been great lately, and I need some time to recuperate," Melanie said. Caleb's residual toxins had long been cleared, and Alex's leg had regained sensation. They no longer needed her, as there were professional rehabilitation d

    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.

    '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.
