Chapter 347 Switching Heart
Melanie had just entered the car and wanted to calm down, but her emotions made it difficult.
She instinctively held the left side of her chest, feeling her irregular heartbeat with a cold smile on her face.
Was she that bad at judging men?
She thought that it was because she was too naive and didn’t know love. That was why she met with the cheating Bryan West. Then, after getting her lesson, she accidentally married Jeffrey. From the beginning she
was extremely wary of him, only seeing the wisdom, decisiveness and justice in him after experiencing so much together. She had finally seen the kindness that he had hidden, and the respect he had for her. She had only started to let her guard down, feeling that they could finally know each other better and love one another…
She didn’t expect that, not realizing it despite her sensitivity, that what he looked up to and respected wasn’t
her, but something inside of her that didn’t belong to her in the first place…
She didn’t want to cry anymore. She didn’t want to tear up in front of Jeffrey just now either. If she made the wrong decision, then all she needed to do was to correct the mistake. There was nothing to cry about, she
thought to herself.
“Miss Melanie?
“Miss Melanie? Should I send you back to the company or back home?”.
“To Mount Aenea Hospital,” she said.
“Now?” The driver looked at her from the rearview mirror cautiously.
“Yes.”
When the driver saw that Melanie was firm with her decision, he chose to turn around in the next junction and head straight to the countryside. “It’s going to be a while before we get to Mount Aenea Hospital. You can sleep for a bit. I’ll wake you up when we’re there.”
“Sure.”
Melanie leaned against the seat and took out her phone, making a night booking with the heart specialist at Mount Aenea Hospital. That hospital belonged to Jones Enterprise, and it was also the same hospital where she had the heart transplant surgery all those years ago.
Two hours later.
Melanie arrived at the hospital and got a full diagnosis for her heart through the night. The doctor told her that her heart was very healthy, that she needed not worry.
“There’s something I don’t understand.”
Melanie came here with questions. “I studied about this in the past and knew that someone who had a heart transplant surgery like me would usually have some kind of complications after the surgery, and my physical fitness would never return to normal. Why would I recover so quickly?”

“It’s very rare for someone to recover like you have. It means that the donor’s heart and you match up very
well!” the old doctor explained to her.
The better the match, the more ironic things were.
“What? Isn’t this something to be happy about?” the doctor asked.
Melanie could feel the emptiness inside of her and she wasn’t showing any happiness. “My dad told me that
we need to protect all the information of the doner, right? I can’t find anything about it.”
“That’s right. The information on the donor and recipient are both protected. We’re not sure about it. All we
know is that we need to save the patient,” the doctor said.
But… Those who wanted to know about it managed to find out anyway, right?
Melanie’s eyes turned frigid as she stood up and thanked him before leaving.
Once she was back in the car, she gave Annie a call to say that she wanted to have a sleepover, but Annie said she was working overtime at her office tonight and asked her to look for her there instead. Melanie then
got her driver to drive to Annie’s PR company.
The party at the York’s residence had already ended.
Stephen saw how Melanie left in despair and how his uncle left in defeat. He knew something had happened and quickly asked William. He found out that someone had used the heart transplant to cause a rift between
his uncle and aunt.
He canceled everything tonight and got into Jeffrey’s car and said, “Uncle, why don’t you give chase? She won’t come back if you just wait in here, right?”
“If chasing after her will do anything, she wouldn’t have left just now.” Jeffrey didn’t even bother looking at
him.
It was Stephen’s first time hearing Jeffrey talk to him in such a normal way. Looks like his aunt really did get shaken this time.
“I’m experienced in this. When a woman runs away, it means she’s waiting for you to catch up. If you don’t chase after her, how is she supposed to come back?”
“Do you think those women around you are the same as Melanie?”
H
Jeffrey was getting impatient as he glared at him, and his voice was turning to how cold it usually was.” Would any woman around you get mad knowing that you get close to them because of the heart they got from
a transplant?”
Stephen shook his head weakly.
Not only would they not be angry. They might even want to transplant a heart from his ex-girlfriend…
While Stephen was getting a little timid, he was still shocked. “To be honest, I just found out that she was the one that got the heart transplant all those years ago… So… Uncle, is the reason you got close to her really

“Scram!”
Jeffrey didn’t want to hear anything similar anymore!
“Then I won’t disturb your peace.”
Stephen had just gotten out of the car before he ran into William who came urgently to report to Jeffrey. “Boss, the madam had gone to Mount Aenea Hospital and booked an appointment with a heart specialist for tonight!”
“That was where she had the heart transplant all those years ago.” Jeffrey couldn’t help but tighten his fist. his eyes cold.
Stephen was so shocked that he quickly commented with wide eyes, “Don’t tell me that she’s so haunted by this that she wants to dig her heart out and give it back to you?!”
