Chapter 978 Losing Your Loved Ones

Author: Bright Eyes
"He ended up staying alive, didn't he?" Joseph wasn't satisfied. He raised his voice. "Besides, we were both on the verge of killing each other! If I hadn't made a move, he would've killed me, wouldn't he?"

"Carson never considered hurting you!" Maximilian sounded calm.

"Hahaha!"

Joseph laughed maniacally. "Of course he would say that. You're not him. How would you know what he's planning?"

"Heh." Maximilian chuckled. There was an ambiguous look in his eyes, but he made no further explanation.

"Since Carson kept it a secret from me for decades and didn't want me to reunite with my son and granddaughter, why did he send the evidence to me now? What is he up to?" Joseph couldn't resist asking these questions.

"You said so yourself. I'm not him. How would I know what he's thinking?" Maximilian replied. "You have his number. If you're so curious, why don't you ask him?"

As soon as Carson was brought up, Joseph felt intimidated.

He was very afraid of Carson even back then. For fear

    "Yeah."Melanie nodded and continued walking forward.Jeffrey gave her a hand. "What's the matter? Are you not in a good mood?""I'm not quite sure."Melanie looked down. She was troubled by her own thoughts.To be honest, she knew about her identity long ago. However, now that it was out in the open, it did not feel as relieving as she had imagined. On the contrary, she wasn't sure about returning to the York family. How would they treat her? How would she deal with pretentious family members?She felt too exhausted to even make up her mind."If you feel tired, you don't have to go back so soon. There's no rush." Jeffrey seemed to be able to read her mind.Melanie looked at him in surprise. How did he know what she was thinking? Was he able to read her mind?"Do I look funny?" Jeffrey touched his face.He was worried she walked too fast earlier and would hurt herself. He did not even have time to change his undershirt. After grabbing a coat, he directly ran after her. He had

    "Are you mad?" Nathan asked when he heard Leo shouting."If the explosion hadn't suddenly occurred in your house, my plan would've taken place long ago. You're in no place to doubt me!" Nathan added while frowning angrily."Just so you know, my grandfather is starting to suspect me! Besides, he's also secretly contacting Melanie. If they'd already acknowledged their connection, Melanie will be my sister the next time she returns! She'll be another competitor for the inheritance! Can you tolerate that?""What's the hurry? Do you want me to make a move in Delfino?" Nathan said with a calm voice. There was a sinister smile on his face."Of course!" Leo quickly replied."It's much more challenging for my men to act fast in Delfino. You know how hard it is," Nathan said with an undertone."What's the condition?" Leo asked impatiently."The same rule applies. You made this request personally. Once the job is done, I want an extra ten percent." Nathan chuckled."Your greed indeed grow

    18th of May.It was the day Jeffrey pretended to be Greg, only to be hunted down by Nathan's men.He could not have remembered it more clearly.That night, he had collapsed in a tall bush with severe wounds. His throat was dry from thirst, but he was too afraid to venture out and contact his subordinates. He was getting desperate.Melanie had risked her life by running into the bush and found him.He remembered her thin nightgown.She had bared her true feelings then.That night, he experienced passion like never before.That was the night she got pregnant.She was pregnant… With his child!He was stupid enough to fall for Linda's lies!All this while, he believed Hank was the father of his children!Why did she not tell him the truth?Was it because she blamed him for not trusting her? Was that why she stubbornly refused not to tell him?Jeffrey looked at the date on the report. His vision turned blurry…He felt a burning pain in his eyes. He was not sure if he was cryi

    Jeffrey sat outside the emergency rescue room. The cold floor could not calm him down.All he could think about was the car accident he had witnessed two hours ago.The huge cargo truck had sent Melanie's car flying…Jeffrey was driving from afar. He saw the cargo truck driver getting back onto the truck, which had half the front knocked off, and escaping right before his eyes. However, Jeffrey could not stop him…Jeffrey forgot how he opened the blocked door. He saw Melanie lying in a pool of blood…Her head, upper body, and lower body were all covered in blood…Jeffrey carried her out with trembling hands. Fortunately, she was still breathing, weak though it may be. He frantically called for an ambulance. Once it arrived, he carried her onto the ambulance. Throughout the drive, he kept calling her name… For fear that she might fall asleep…Thump.The emergency rescue room's doors finally opened.Professor Turner walked out with sweat all over his forehead. "What exactly happ

    Melanie looked hopefully at Professor Turner. "What is the good news?""Of the twins, the underdeveloped one has stopped growing, while the remaining one remains vital." Professor Turner smiled.Melanie's eyelashes trembled a little. Her teardrop slid down her face.One of them was alive!"Perhaps this is the best outcome. The other one never developed well. Forcing yourself to keep it may not be the best for the other embryo," he added.Melanie nodded and wiped her tears away. "I understand. This is already a benevolent gift from God."After envisioning the worst outcome, hearing this news felt… Wonderful!"I'm glad you do. Please focus on recuperating. Your other baby relies on you for nutrition. It was a terrible accident. You're lucky to keep one of them. You suffered injuries to your head and legs. We have to keep you in the observation room for the next two days. Don't overexert yourself," Professor Turner added.Melanie nodded."Get some rest. Call me if you're not fee

    Jeffrey looked at Melanie's stubborn expression. He nodded while bearing the pain. "Fine.""Naturally so," Melanie teased."I'm tired. Please leave."He did not want to upset her. He also knew she had just woken up and needed to rest. He could only stand up and leave.However, as soon as he opened the door, he heard a commotion outside. Not long after that, he walked in with a few other people."The York family is here," he said.Professor Turner pointed angrily at the bodyguards in black clothes. "I told you. Don't you understand what I said? She can't leave with you now! You just won't believe me!""Miss Melanie, we're here to bring you home on Master York's orders. We will only listen to you!" The bodyguards' leader said respectfully while bowing to her.Melanie had seen this bodyguard before. He was frequently seen behind the York family's housekeeper. Clearly, they had sent their most trusted men."This is Professor Turner. He saved my life. He's also the person in charge

    "I saw Daddy's photo in your phone, Mommy!" Ermin answered in a crisp voice.Melanie blinked. She was surprised by her own son.Not only did Ermin know how to formulate a sentence at one-and-a-half years old, but he even remembered details from when he was still so young.At approximately one-and-a-half years old, Ermin watched cartoons for the first time. One night, when Melanie tucked him in, he kept calling out for his father. Melanie figured it was because he saw all other children in the cartoons had parents, while he only had his mother. He probably found it odd.Jeffrey had left them not long ago at the time. Melanie missed him too. That was why she went through old photos in her phone and looked at them with Ermin. She even told Ermin the man in the photos was his father. However, his father had gone somewhere far away… He would not return for a long time…She was surprised a young kid like him could remember his father's face.While Melanie was stunned, Ermin got too bor

    Strychnine…Melanie frowned.Many plants in the tropics contained strychnine that was colorless and odorless. Although it was soluble in water, it tasted extremely bitter…She suspiciously opened the folder Jefford showed her. She quickly skimmed through it while Jeffrey explained it to her. "Leo is smart. He knows strychnine tastes bitter and is pungent. Even if he refined a little bit of it, it would be enough for Joseph and his loyal subordinates to find out. That's why Leo used the extract of strychnine petals.""Strychnine petals are not bitter. On the contrary, they have a curry scent. Although the toxicity is weak, the right dosage can still weaken an eighty-year-old's organs and cause them to fail rapidly," Melanie finished his sentence."That's right!" Jeffrey nodded."Leo is very cautious. He knows that if Joseph dies violently, his loyal subordinates will surely investigate thoroughly, and the process of his poisoning won't be necessarily successful even if he's discre

    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. 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.
