Chapter 371 Hugging Each Other

“Will you wear that tonight?” Annie asked out of curiosity.“I will,” Melanie said with a sigh. “Jeffrey will be going to the dinner, too. If I don’t wear it, it’ll be obvious that I agreed to go just to anger him. He’ll never sign the divorce papers that way.”Jeffrey was going to the dinner too?Annie nodded. She felt more assured with Jeffrey accompanying Melanie to the dinner.Melanie put the box containing the gown and jewelry aside, and got changed into a casual set of shirt and long pants that was comfortable to move in. Very soon, she received a message from the Snow family’s private investigator. “Gabriel has entered the fragrance blending room.”“I’m going there too,” Melanie said to Annie.“Have you thought this through?” Annie asked, still concerned.“It’s fine. I have to actively enter the lion’s den instead of being a sitting duck,” Melanie said as she patted Annie’s shoulders. “Jeffrey’s men are also stationed nearby the fragrance blending room. Don’t worry.”

Chapter 372 Spicing Up Their Romance

The dinner at the Yorks hadn’t officially started yet.The family was in the living hall downstairs. Only the older members of the family were surrounding Joseph, talking in the glass room above the backyard.Everyone saw the scene in Gabriel’s fragrance blending room, and started talking among themselves.“I heard yesterday, she concocted a fragrance for Gabriel in front of everyone using many types of roses as a base, saying that it results in a stark contrast between control and impulse. There’s definitely something between those two!”“Is that…how artists spice things up in their romance…in the fragrance blending room?” someone remarked with a chuckle.Joseph’s face turned dark with displeasure.He turned back and glanced at his two grandsons, his eyes glinting. Harlow couldn’t contain his gleeful expression, while Leo stood there looking aloof, which came as a surprise to Joseph.“Grandpa, this…is their personal affair. It’s not that appropriate for us to continue looking a

Chapter 373 Showing No Mercy

“You… Shut up!” Harlow yelled in frustration, with no way of refuting Melanie.“Why are you getting angry, Mr. Harlow? Did I say anything wrong?” Melanie’s voice turned cold, refusing to spare him.Everyone else understood what was going on and that everything turned out to be Harlow’s ploy.He wanted Melanie and Gabriel to be photographed together in the fragrance blending room, and deliberately created an opportunity to show the Yorks the footage so Melanie’s reputation would be torn to shreds.The Yorks knew that Leo was pursuing Melanie. If Melanie’s reputation was ruined, Leo would in turn become the butt of everyone’s jokes.The Yorks’ heirs were brothers, but everyone knew how insignificant brotherly ties were in the face of inheritance issues.“I’m sorry for ruining the mood. The dinner is about to start. Leo, bring Melanie here.”Joseph kept his gaze down, making it difficult to tell his mood right now. He finally urged Leo to bring Melanie to the dinner banquet after h

Chapter 374 Be With Me Instead

“Mr. Harlow, where did you go just now? Why didn’t you let me come with you?” Sylvia immediately clung onto Harlow upon his return.“Scram!” Harlow glared at her before leaving in frustration.Sylvia tried to hide her indignation and composed herself, straightening out her necklace, before approaching a group of ladies and exchanging pleasantries with them.Coincidentally, the ladies were complaining about Melanie. When Sylvia joined them, they asked, “Did Mr. Leo give Melanie Jones the gown and jewelry she’s wearing?”“Yes, he did.”Everyone knew Sylvia was Harlow’s new girlfriend, and would certainly be aware of things going on in the York family. Her words could be trusted.“How shameless! How dare she accept such an extravagant gift!”Some of the ladies were outraged and raged at Melanie behind her back, while deliberately looking at another woman who was the focal point amidst the group of ladies—Kelly Murray, the heiress of the Murrays.She was the only one who remained

Chapter 375 Top Priority for Protection

Another hand grabbed Harlow’s hand in midair. He struggled against the hold, and the realization that he was overpowered embarrassed him.“President Morgan! Why are you interfering?!” Harlow yelled at Jeffrey, furious.“Show some self-respect!” Jeffrey flung Harlow’s arm, and he winced in pain. Harlow glared at Melanie as he rubbed his arm. “I just don’t understand. Why does Grandpa like you so much, a social climber who’s still entangled with Jeffrey Morgan?”“Why don’t you ask him yourself if you’re so curious?” Melanie said coldly.“Hmph!” Harlow left in a huff, mumbling under his breath, knowing that he had no chance of taking advantage of Melanie.Jeffrey looked at Melanie. When Harlow raised his hand, he saw Melanie subconsciously protecting their baby. That meant that she wanted to keep the baby, despite her saying that she wanted to leave him…That meant he still had a place in her heart…Jeffrey was moved by that thought, and set his mind on being wherever she went

Chapter 376 Over 15 Million Dollars

Kelly swallowed past her constricted throat. From the corner of her eye, she could see everyone sniggering at her. It made her feel even more awkward.Melanie Jones has a sharp tongue indeed!But she hadn’t made her move yet. It wasn’t yet clear who between them was the victor!Kelly put down the plate, and sneered as she looked at Melanie from head to toe. “Are you wearing the gown Leo gave you?”Melanie looked back at Kelly and noticed that the disdainful look in her eyes resembled Harlow. Both of them showed no respect and regard for others.“Do you know how much the gown and jewelry you’re wearing costs? Don’t you feel bad accepting them?” Kelly raised her voice, accusing Melanie bitterly right in front of everyone.Melanie was speechless. Although she knew that such banquets were dull and boring, she should have expected even more dull and boring people to come along and broaden her horizons.“The Murrays have invested in this country for years, and have been thriving. You

Chapter 377 Truffle Hunter

Kelly’s face darkened with displeasure when she saw how the tables had turned. “Mr. Leo, thank you for the gown and jewelry you gave me. Many guests praised me for them,” Melanie said, raising her voice deliberately.Leo smiled, and waved his hand. “You’re the one who accentuated their beauty. It’s a mesmerizing scene to see stunning jewelry worn by a true beauty!”“Jewelry pieces have collection value. I’ll return this set to you after tonight, Mr. York. Since you bid for and purchased it from an auction, I’m sure you like it very much. You should be the one keeping it,” Melanie said.“Huh? Why would I take back a gift that I’ve given?” Leo said, waving his hands profusely.“Alright, then,” Melanie went on with a smile. “I won’t put you on the spot then, Mr. York. Why don’t we make a promise to cooperate on the two Unraveling Enigmas perfumes? If the results aren’t stellar, I’ll gladly return you this jewelry, okay?”“You have a deal.”Leo’s eyes shone as Melanie reached out h

Chapter 378 A Life For A Life

After a while, the Yorks’ butler stood on the second floor and officially announced the start of the dinner dance.He invited the two sons of the York family to the dance floor with their companions for an opening dance.Harlow called Sylvia and took her hand while walking to the dance floor. Leo walked toward Melanie while Isla kept winking at her, implicitly trying to hook the two of them.Melanie placed her hands on Leo’s arm as both of them waltzed to the music on the dance floor.“You must be tired today. Why don’t we go slow?” Leo said thoughtfully.“Sounds good,” Melanie said.They slowed down their pace, and it became easier for her to follow through the steps. “Thank you for the gown, Mr. York,” she said. “It’s beautiful, and I’m here to express my appreciation and gratitude.”She deliberately made her purpose in coming clear so that things wouldn’t be vague between them.Leo smiled graciously. “It’s good that you like it. Please don’t overthink things. My family app

Chapter 379 Divorce

Melanie stood up, and followed the medical staff to the guest room on the first floor. The doctor had to treat Jeffrey’s wound, and outsiders weren’t allowed in.She stood outside anxiously. Very soon, all the bodyguards of Morgan Group were gathered outside, standing behind her and William while waiting for instructions.The butler was waiting outside, while the servants kept him constantly updated on the situation. Melanie could hear them saying that the attacker was a subordinate of Charles Miller, and that he had come to seek revenge on her…But she had no mental capacity to try to figure out what was going on. Her focus and attention were all turned to the door before her that was still tightly shut.Melanie finally heaved a sigh of relief when the doctor came out and informed them that Jeffrey wasn’t severely injured, and that his main artery wasn’t wounded. Jeffrey would be able to recover with some rest and recuperation.“Mrs…” William blurted out, almost making a mistake

Chapter 380 Ten-year-old Boy

Leo was injured because of her, and it was only right of her to go and see him.What’s more, the butler had made himself so clear that Melanie had no choice but to smile and say with a nod, “Where is his room? I’ll go check on him.”“I’ll have someone bring you there. I won’t be going. Mr. Joseph York just returned from his room, and I have to be by his side.”The butler called some servants and instructed them to lead Melanie to Leo’s room. He didn’t stay in the same building as Joseph. The servants asked for Melanie’s permission, “Miss Melanie, it’s getting late. Shall we bring you through the shortcut?”“Sure.”Melanie was of the opinion that the less she walked, the better.After a distance, as they were passing through the backyard between two blocks, a sharp, pungent smell made Melanie cover her mouth and nose with her hands. She suppressed the discomfort in her stomach. “This place is…”“This is where Mr. Harlow stays. He stays here whenever he comes back,” one of the
