Chapter 271 Two Murderers

On stage, Cyrus was still lying on the stretcher that was temporarily moved here. He could already feel his muscles while Melanie and his personal assistant were guarding him.Melanie could feel the chill down her spine. She knew that it was legal to have a taser gun here, but she didn’t expect that she would be a witness to an assassination, especially when the murderer was so close to her and Elder Gibson!She raised her eyes and looked at everyone that was on stage.Joseph was sitting in his wheelchair, remaining still throughout the entire ordeal.Charles was already dead, and his corpse had been moved off stage by his servants.The other two families left were the Murrays and the Romero. The former had a steelwork-focused business while the latter started their family fortune through medicine. The patriarchs of both the families were confused, started by Charles’s butler.“We’ve already called the police! If we can’t find the murderer that killed my master, none of you can l

Chapter 272 Found the Taser

“Are you implying that Luis Romero and I are the culprit?!”At this time, the patriarch of the Murray family, Kiefer Murray, stepped forward. He looked at Melanie with angry eyes.“I never said that.”Melanie predicted that this would happen, so she responded to him calmly. “We’ll only know the truth once the police and the coroner get a closer look. There are also a lot of things that are involved here, such as the margin of error for the electrocution’s duration and the source of the taser gun. I’m simply analyzing one of the possibilities.”“You’re obviously trying to get the Yorks and the Gibsons out of this while dragging us in instead!”Kiefer said angrily and refused to let Melanie escape. “Otherwise, why didn’t anyone else here say what you said? You’re the only one that’s meddling in this affair! You’re Elder Gibson’s disciple, and you even won two contests for the Yorks today! You must have your own intentions! Maybe you’re the real culprit!”“The only reason I stepped

Chapter 273 Fingerprints

Not long after, the police officers dispatched by the nearby station had reached the area and began their investigation. A coroner was with them.Under the police officers’ orders, all the guests that wanted to leave could leave without any issues as long as they were willing to queue up for a pat down and investigation.Due to the uniqueness of the case and the fact that the victim was a local wealthy man, not to mention that the witnesses and suspects were all local leaders, the police station had dispatched a large number of officers to investigate the case on the island, and all suspects couldn’t leave the island temporarily.About half an hour later, the coroner had completed his task, and he held the same opinion as the doctor on the island. The officer also found the taser gun buried in a flowerpot.“Calm down, everyone.”“We’ve already found the taser gun that was used for the crime. After investigation, the gun had only been fired twice when the crime took place. The micr

Chapter 274 I Accept

One hour ago.Jeffrey personally went to the testing lab after Melanie left the lounge.He was getting worried about his subordinate’s work. The Yorks could be quite brutal. If they did something wrong and they couldn’t control the result of the paternal test, then Melanie would be in the Yorks’ line of sight!The York family was a swamp, and lying within that swamp were the bones and flesh of those who were part of the family. He was thinking of personally overseeing it, but the moment he reached the lab, he suddenly received William’s report. “Boss! This is bad! Someone has committed murder in the Yorks’ banquet! Charles is dead, and now the madam is one of the suspects...”Jeffrey took a deep breath and had no choice but to let his subordinate take over the matter with the lab. He quickly got back into the car and drove as fast as he could.Once he was back on the island’s banquet hall, the police officer had already confirmed that the fingerprints were a match with Melanie’s f

Chapter 275 Self-Help Is a Headache

“Ms. Melanie, solitary confinement doesn’t allow anyone else to accompany...” the police officer cut her off with her frown.“I’m talking about something else,” Melanie said calmly.Her insistence surprised those who were watching. Even the police officers themselves were surprised. No one could have thought that the first person that could regain their composure was the young woman in front of them, especially when she was accused of being Charles’s killer with all the evidence pointing at her.How could she be so calm? How could she even think of exchanging terms with the police officers?“This is a murder and a scheme. While I’m the primary suspect, I request to be a witness to the investigation,” Melanie said.“You don’t have that right,” the officer refused.But Melanie still refused to give up. “From what I know, your country also has no right to allow all those people in the VIP seats to be there when you’re gathering evidence, right? You still allowed them to do so either

Chapter 276 A Life for a Life

“What do you mean?”The captain asked Melanie.“From your expression, I supposed that I’m mostly accurate in this matter?”Melanie said with determination, “Then, please explain to me if, in theory, my fingerprints were really left behind by the murderer, does that mean that the tool he used is made of silicon?”The captain picked up that taser and sniffed it with his nose. Other than the smell of burnt metal caused by the electricity surge, there was no other scent...“Replicating one’s fingerprints does require the use of silicon, but because silicon has a strong smell, a professional would have removed the scent. There won’t be any scent left behind.”The captain suspiciously explained to them. “I’ve given it a sniff, and there’s no smell. Try smelling it yourself.”The other officers passed the gun around and sniffed, and they all agreed that there was no silicon scent.“Just because you can’t smell it, doesn’t mean I can’t,” Melanie said.“We can all be a witness to that.

Chapter 277 Let Her Join the Yorks

Joseph sat in the garden’s greenhouse. The angle he was sitting at allowed him to see Melanie inside the room. Only after a long while did he say...“Cyrus really likes his little disciple.”“That’s right. He’s been sitting by the door. He never left.” The butler agreed.At this time, a sharply dressed subordinate quickly walked over. He said something to the butler and gave him a document. The butler read it and his expression changed slightly.Before he could say anything, Joseph asked without turning his head, “The test results are out?”“Yes... Master Joseph.”“She’s not...?” Under Joseph’s eyelids, his eyes trembled.“No...”The butler walked over and put the results in Joseph’s hand. “Miss Melanie Jones is not the young master’s descendant... But someone has been tracking us all the way, wanting to sabotage the test results during the festivities. However, our people managed to avoid them without alerting them. The result is real... Master Joseph... Please don’t be sad...

Chapter 278 Leo York

The entire area was in an uproar.The police didn’t find any trace of silicon!But Melanie had been so sure that almost everyone was deceived by her! Was she trying to buy time? Or maybe she had another partner in crime? Or did she have some other goal?“That’s impossible! I didn’t get it wrong!”Melanie was riled up. She couldn’t believe that this was how things were going to end.She was very confident with her sense of smell. Unless her body was injured, her sense of smell had never failed her.“Stop arguing, Miss Melanie! From now on, you have the right to remain silent. Everything you say can and will be used against you at court!”The high-ranking officer continued, “According to our analysis, there’s no silicon on the taser gun at all. And the grip of the taser is also not made of silicon. If you maintain your argument, the court will believe that you are trying to avoid taking responsibility for your crime!”“If the material isn’t made of silicon, then there’s no mistak

Chapter 279 Flirtatious

The man had a bony face with very prominent cheeks. He had handsome features and his lips curved downward. His hair, brows, and sideburns were neatly trimmed, and even his collars were properly ironed.Melanie instinctively felt that he was probably the cleanest man she had ever seen in the past twenty-odd years.He was one of the Yorks’ heirs?Before coming to Medonia, she had read up on the Yorks. Because the Yorks had a hereditary heart condition, the family had always had few members.The patriarch, Joseph York, had one son and one daughter, but they both passed away when they were still young. They had left behind two young grandchildren for Joseph. One was said to be very violent, and the other quite hardhearted. She wondered which of these two he was...The high-ranking officer read the bloody report and called the police station’s laboratory, asking them to do the same test on the same sample.“Bring me the person that brought us the report with no silicon traces!” The hi

Chapter 280 The Culprit

“I know that this isn’t Harbor City nor your territory, but I’ll accompany her.” Jeffrey consoled him with a whisper when he saw Cyrus getting agitated.“Accompany her?”Cyrus gave a cold smile. “Do you think you’re the aegis of Melanie or something?”There were some murmurs from the people around them who were watching, as well as Leo’s coughing every now and then.Melanie gave Jeffrey a look. When she saw the certainty in his eyes, she knew that he had made arrangements. She calmed down a little and walked over to hold Cyrus’s hand and said...“It’s alright, Master. Let’s go home... There’s no use throwing temper tantrums, right?”“What temper tantrums?! You’re the one that’s being forced to stay here, not me!”Cyrus pretended to be frustrated and pushed her hand away before he got back into his car with his crutch.When the convoy finally reached the banquet hall on the island, they saw Joseph waiting for them with a group of people behind him. When he saw Melanie get out of
