Chapter 343 Shut Her Mouth
The footsteps at the entrance were very light. Jane felt her heart thumping, feeling terrified. In the end, she
simply covered herself in the blanket.
“Where is she?”
Suddenly, there was a woman’s voice.
Jane was somewhat suspicious while she stayed under the blanket. In the end, she couldn’t help popping her
head out of the blanket. The woman that came in was standing right at the bedside, staring at her without
much expression on her face.
“Melanie Jones?!”
Jane said in shock.
“You know me?” Melanie asked with her eyebrow raised.
Jane realized that she had misspoke, quickly sitting up as she tidied her hair and said without being forced, “I
drank a little wine just now and wasn’t feeling well, so I came up here to rest.”
“I didn’t ask why you’re here.”
Melanie walked around calmly and looked at her judgingly with a smile. “Who are you?”
“I’m Jane Kelley.”
“Ah, I remember you. You’re that staff from Morgan Group that’s in the gossip with Mr. Morgan, right?” Melanie
confidently asked her.
Jane was getting even more nervous. She could only nod and shake her head after getting caught by the
actual girlfriend.
“To think that you can get drunk, come up here to rest, shower, and even change your clothes at the party organized by Mr. York. Looks like you’re not just a simple staff from Morgan Group,” Melanie said quickly as
she walked closer, questioning her.
“No, no… I…”
Jane didn’t know how to answer her. On one hand, she feared Nathan. On the other hand, Melanie, who was
standing in front of her, was similarly forceful. She didn’t have the time to think of an answer at all.
“How do you know me? Through Jeffrey?
“And the scent on you is the Purple Lapis, isn’t it? What a coincidence. I believe that it’s the lady’s fragrance
that he said he liked in a past interview.”
“No… It’s a coincidence… Really just a coincidence…” Jane mumbled.
Melanie smiled coldly. “All the coincidences in this world are made up through someone’s hands. I don’t believe in coincidences. Now… Tell me, why are you getting close to Jeffrey?!”

“It’s because… I think he’s handsome… And rich…”
At this time, Jane remembered one of the questions that she prepared with Nathan. If someone saw through her ploy, she needed to pin all the blame on herself. She still remembered that.
“If you wanted to seduce Jeffrey, then you wouldn’t have been hiding under the blanket when I came in. You would have been sitting by the bed in a seductive pose.” Melanie instantly revealed her lies.
Jane started to get anxious and cried.
“Who sent you here? Tell me. I won’t make it difficult for you. Trust me.” Melanie finally softened her voice for
once since she stepped through the door.
Jane looked at her, sobbing. When she saw the sincerity in Melanie’s eyes, her sobs stopped.
“To be honest…”
Jane had just wanted to say something when there was a beep at the door, and it opened again. Leo quickly ran in, and his voice filled with urgency. “Melanie? Why are you here? I’ve been looking for you everywhere.”
“Oh? Well, I was feeling a bit uncomfortable, so I came up here to look for a room to rest,” she said as she turned around, her eyes cold.
“This is…?”
Leo looked at Jane, who was crying on her bed.
“I saw her here. She said that she’s feeling uncomfortable and resting here. Maybe she’s feeling very sick. Can you get her a doctor?” Melanie spoke without emotion.
“Sure.”
Leo turned around and ordered his servant before asking, “What about you? Do you need a doctor too?”
“I’m fine. I’m just feeling a little nauseated. I’m much better now.”
Melanie gave him a dry smile and said, “Since you personally came looking for me, let’s go down.”
Leo extended his hand toward her in a gentlemanly manner, letting her go first as he followed behind her. “You should see a doctor too, even if it’s just some nausea. It must be because you forgot to eat again. Remember not to bear everything yourself when you’re uncomfortable.”
“Don’t worry. When it comes to nausea, it’s sometimes not something biological, but psychological,” Melanie said icily.
