บททั้งหมดของ I Became His Sweetheart: บทที่ 111 - บทที่ 120

"You've got it all wrong," Melanie sighed, feeling the need to clarify. "Yes, we're married. The term 'uncle' is just a nickname," She awkwardly explained with a tight-lipped smile."I don't care about any of that!" The old man snapped impatiently. Without warning, he turned around and pressed something, causing the trap on Jeffrey's leg to snap open.Melanie heard Jeffrey suppress a groan of pain. Seeing the bleeding wound on Jeffrey's leg, she could only imagine the agony he must be feeling. She frowned deeply and urgently asked, "Sir, is there a hospital nearby?""Look around! There's no one here, and you're asking about a hospital?" The old man retorted sarcastically."It's just a flesh wound. I'm fine," Jeffrey reassured her. He remained seated on the ground without moving.Melanie's eyes were fixed on his injury, concern clearly in her eyes.It was rare to see her like this. Was she really worried about him?"Are you worried about me?" He blurted out in surprise.

"Granny?" Melanie turned in surprise to look at Jeffrey.Jeffrey explained that Madam Morgan had returned to the country yesterday. When she heard that Melanie was filming a city promotional video for an international socialite banquet, she went directly to Azure City. Madam Morgan was disappointed when she didn't see Melanie when she arrived.Jeffrey instructed everyone strictly not to disclose Melanie's disappearance. He simply stated that the production team had taken a day off today, and Melanie had gone to meet a friend.However, Madam Morgan would surely grow suspicious if Melanie didn't return today after being gone for a day.Jeffrey had a stern demeanor but was surprisingly very considerate of Madam Morgan's feelings. It was a side to him that Melanie hadn't expected.Melanie understood Jeffrey's intentions, so she returned to the apartment as per his wishes.It had been a while since Madam Morgan had seen Melanie. The moment Melanie got out of the car, Madam Morgan wa

The man was staring intently at the electrocardiogram monitor by her bedside with a focused expression."Who are you?" Melanie asked as she sat up in confusion.The man gently smiled when he realized she was awake. "Hello, Miss Melanie. I'm here on behalf of the organizers of the International Socialites Gala. We heard about what happened and wanted to extend our heartfelt wishes for your swift recovery."Melanie observed him. He looked refined and dressed elegantly. His smile was gentle, and it gave off a comforting vibe. She nodded and asked, "When did I have an ECG?" She glanced at the device clipped to her finger."I believe the doctor performed it while you were asleep. I'm not entirely sure," he replied politely.Noticing the basket of fruits and flowers he had brought, Melanie smiled and said, "Thank you for the heartfelt wishes. I'm fine and will be discharged soon.""Nevertheless, you had an accident for a show we were in charge of. It's our duty to offer assistanc

How strange!Melanie raised an eyebrow as she skimmed through the news.The pictures in the news were a bit blurry, but the woman beside Jacob White did indeed resemble her... This was both amusing and exasperating.It was no wonder John was the face of White Group in recent matters. It turns out his father preferred the company of a mistress over handling official duties.Melanie scrolled through the comments to find that some people were convinced it was Melanie. They noted that even the dress resembled what she wore at the International Socialites Gala interview.Others dismissed it as a joke, mentioning the well-known rivalry between the Jones and White families, finding it unbelievable that the heiress of Jones Enterprise would be the mistress of White Group's chairman."Miss Melanie, could this be a deliberate scheme by White Group?" the assistant asked with concern.Melanie furrowed her brows slightly and said, "I can't see any advantage for them in doing so right now.

Gemma looked up. She followed Grace's gaze, her brows furrowing instantly."It's her...""Why would she come to a White Group hotel this late?" The glint in Grace's eyes became sharper.Grace had initially planned to deal with Melanie at the Azure City. It was remote and deserted enough, and she had used her most trusted individuals. Even if the Jones family investigated afterward, they would hardly find any evidence linking back to her. She had thought her plan was foolproof. But against all odds, she heard Melanie had returned unscathed after being rescued by an unknown person!This news left Grace seething.But now, with the recent news of Jacob's alleged affair, Grace felt as if a gateway to a new world had opened up before her. This was undoubtedly another opportunity to bring Melanie down! Even if she couldn't end Melanie's life, she could ruin her reputation. She could ensure Melanie would never show her face in public again!Almost instinctively, Grace followed Mela
