Chapter 335 Into the Woman’s House
Melanie secretly took a deep breath, trying to soothe the stuffiness in her chest. “That’s his business.”
“That’s right.”
Leo nodded and started his car.
Coincidentally, both cars were heading down the same route, with Jeffrey’s car right ahead of Leo’s.
Only after she saw Jeffrey turn into a low-cost neighborhood did their cars finally separate.
At this time, Leo suddenly received a call, and he stopped his car by the roadside and apologetically said, “I’m
going to pick up the call. Please give me a second, sorry.”
Melanie nodded.
Leo then got out of the car and picked up a call while Melanie turned to look at the neighborhood. Leo was
engaged with his call for a long time but didn’t see Jeffrey drive out.
Which meant, he went to the woman’s home…
Even if he were to send that woman home as a gesture of courtesy, there was no reason for him to stay for so
long. Not to mention that Jeffrey would not show some mixed signals like this for the sake of courtesy.
She couldn’t help but feel nervous.
One hour ago, Jeffrey had told her he had something else to do back in the company. In the end, he went out
to dinner with that woman and sent her home instead! She would be lying if she said she wasn’t feeling upset.
About twenty minutes had passed when Leo finally finished his call and got back into the car. He then put on
his seatbelt and kept on apologizing.
When Melanie finally calmed down, she realized there had been too many coincidences. She could see everything between Jeffrey and that woman with her own eyes. And on top of that, Leo had personally chosen which restaurant they went to, which table they sat at, and even where to stop to pick up a call… Could it be that he’d intentionally taken her to see all of this?
There was an iciness in her eyes.
After Leo’s car drove off, Jeffrey’s car also left the neighborhood in less than five minutes.
Jane was standing on the balcony with a night light lighting up her place dimly. She was reporting back to
Nathan.
“What did he say to you?” Nathan asked.
Jane recalled their conversation and repeated it. Nathan was very unhappy with it. “That’s all? He stayed in your place for half an hour!”

“That’s all he said. I was worried that I would do something wrong, so I recorded everything.” Jane said quickly, guaranteeing the truth in her words. “All he did was walk around my place for a little before leaving…”
“Did you not do everything I told you to?” Nathan’s voice became vicious.
“I did… My clothes were all wet. He asked me to change, and I didn’t… When I got home I said I wanted a
I I shower, but he didn’t let me…” Jane was very upset and also found it hard to mention it.
She had been trying to seduce him all along. Jeffrey knew it all, but he still refused.
Nathan hung up in anger, the gaze in his eyes so vicious that they could terrify someone else.
Looks like Jeffrey had changed a lot in the few months after he got back from overseas, to the point that Nathan almost couldn’t recognize him.
He stood there for a while before calling Luis and said, “Mr. Romero, Jeffrey has already seen the woman I’ve arranged today.”
“I know. Mr. Leo personally led Melanie to witness everything!”
Luis let out a hearty smile from the other side of the line. He managed to profit from working with Nathan this time around. Even if he didn’t include the future marriage between his family and the Morgans, he had still managed to use this to please Leo! It was killing two birds with one stone!
“You’re so smart, Mr. Luis. No wonder you’re the leader of the Romero family!”
Nathan then sneered at him without being too obvious, “You better not forget what you promised me, Mr. Luis.”
“Don’t worry! Are you worried what you want can’t be done when Leo and I work so closely together?” Luis smiled wickedly.
Melanie returned to Jones Enterprise, but she couldn’t even read a single word from the document she was holding.
And then, she immediately called Jeffrey, but William picked it up. “Madam, the boss is having an important international video call. Is it urgent?”
Melanie’s eyes went cold. “He’s back at the company?”
“Yes.”
William answered straightaway.
Melanie hung up, but she was still somewhat confused. She couldn’t help but wonder if Jeffrey was in Morgan Group or at that woman’s home.
She didn’t want to make herself become a suspicious woman, so after making the decision, she immediately got downstairs and called for a cab before heading straight toward Morgan Group. No matter what, she would
personally discover the truth!
