All Chapters of I Became His Sweetheart: Chapter 281 - Chapter 290

The ending of a banquet was the start of another with a different reason.Melanie was getting tired of it, and for some reason Cyrus and Jeffrey weren’t with her.Joseph told his men to take her to a room for some rest and prepared several sets of outfit for her to change into, but she wasn’t that happy and simply went downstairs after fixing her makeup.The York’s old butler bent over while he was pushing Joseph’s wheelchair and said, “Sir, everything’s ready. Later, Miss Melanie will personally thank Leo. Leo will then take her to the next building. The atmosphere will be just nice.”Joseph’s lips formed a wry smile as he ordered, “Keep an eye on Jeffrey.”“He’s not here. Something seemed to have happened and he left the island to deal with it,” the butler said.Joseph nodded. “Then keep an eye on that dock and don’t let him return!”“Understood!”Melanie went downstairs and chatted for a while, and looked around. She then asked one of the servants, “Where’s your young master

“How can I not know when you’ve hired people to protect me?”Melanie raised her eyes before saying, “Not to mention that my master told me that I have a sense of smell no weaker than those from the Yorks. If they can’t have me, then we might end up as enemies. Naturally, I have to be prepared.”“I see...”Elize let out a sigh of relief, worried that the intelligent daughter of hers would notice something.“But visiting the Yorks isn’t a waste of time. I can see that the Jones Enterprise’s perfume department has recently signed two large contracts and they’re both overseas businesses that I’ve known from the Yorks’ festival. It’s worth it,” Melanie said, trying to calm things down.“Two contracts aren’t worth your safety,” Elize said with a sigh. “All I want is for you to stay safe. I’m not afraid of living a hard life.”Melanie smiled, hiding the sorrow in her eyes.“Oh, by the way, the Hans are back in town. Did you know that?” Melanie asked.Eliza nodded. “The Romeros want to

Mrs. Hans smiled happily when she heard what Olivia said. “My daughter has matured.” “Of course I have, especially after going through so much,” Olivia said smugly as she twirled a lock of hair around her finger. “I even found out that Mr. York has been a germaphobe since he was a child, and is a clean freak! A woman like Melanie, with a lawsuit on her hands, is definitely someone so filthy to him that he wouldn’t even glance her way! He’ll find her dirty!”Mrs. Hans’s eyes narrowed. “In that case, I need to pay a little more to cover up your records.”The mention of her being jailed overseas made Olivia grit her teeth in anger and shame. “It’s all Melanie’s fault! She’s always the reason why I get humiliated! Mom, don’t you worry. This time, I’m fully prepared to settle all scores with her once and for all!”“We’ll wait for your good news, then,” Mrs. Hans said, feeling assured with her daughter at the helm of things.-On Saturday night, Melanie told the driver to send her

Olivia’s arms were crossed, doubtful that Melanie could ruin her plan.She had long paid people to suppress subsequent news of Melanie being cleared of suspicion and the true culprit confessing to his crime from various websites. It was impossible for anyone to find anything.Others had no idea what Melanie was doing, either.Leo signaled for his subordinate to step forward as he issued him an order, “Prepare an explanation for Melanie Jones so she doesn’t embarrass herself before the business circle in Harbor City.”“Yes, sir!” the subordinate immediately responded. “This trip was absolutely necessary. But sir, have you thought of how you want to deal with her?”Leo’s eyes narrowed. “Since Grandpa wants me to please her, I’ll do just that. I don’t need to overthink. What’s more, Grandpa doesn’t seem to have a concrete idea on how to deal with her. He had the butler check on her background multiple times in secret. I’m not sure what they’re plotting, but get your men to keep a clo

Nelson was the main organizer, yet he didn’t understand the basic requirements of a mountain race. With this in mind, Melanie had to summarize the key points that she felt he would be able to understand or at least care about.“Have you considered the fact that the bikers will be racing on mountain roads, and that if it were to start raining in the next two hours, a mudslide might occur that might put the bikers’ lives in danger? If anything were to happen, would you and your men be able to drive in from the base camp to rescue the bikers in time?”Reason finally returned to Mr. Hans as he pondered over Melanie’s words. The risk she described did exist on Mount Coloss. This was the first mission Johnson Corporation tasked him with. He had to do a good job and claim credit for it. He couldn’t allow anything to go wrong under his watch.Nelson’s eyes narrowed as he waved his assistant over.“Announce to everyone that there might be rain in two hours’ time. Shorten the race by two
