Chapter 394 Confession
Melanie wiped her tears away and said, “I have a few questions that I want to ask you.”
“Say it.”
Jeffrey sternly looked at the woman that was being serious. As long as she wasn’t asking for a divorce, he would do whatever she wanted.
“When did you find out I’m pregnant?” she asked.
Jeffrey stopped, frowning. So, she heard it….
“After you received your report,” he answered honestly.
“But I thought the Snows‘ private investigators…”
“They secretly changed the result of your report and even dealt with the doctor. However, that was because I made them believe that they succeeded,” Jeffrey said.
Melanie rolled her eyes. He was truly quite tyrannical.
That was why Jeffrey kept on shadowing her after she joined the York family’s party, always within a certain distance. It was all to protect her.
“I see.”
Melanie nodded and took the handkerchief that Jeffrey gave her, wiping her tears away. Then she said, “I’ll give you a chance to confess everything. From the beginning, when you approached me, till now, what else are you hiding from me?”
Jeffrey stood up, hand on the wound in his abdomen. He lifted the blanket and sat on the bed close to her.
“What are you doing?” Melanie asked.
“It’s a long story, so I’m choosing a position that’s more comfortable.” Jeffrey lied down and even intentionally groaned as he held his wound.
Melanie had no choice but to let him sit by her side, letting him put his arm around her shoulder, their backs against the bedhead. “From the very beginning, I wanted to look for you in Harbor City. But you got drunk by the streets overseas and sat in my car by pure coincidence. You even teased me and owned me for an entire night.”
“Be serious.”
Melanie turned around and glared at him.
Her clear, almond eyes were reflected in his black eyes, and the glittering stars inside her eyes moved him as he felt his heart tremble and his throat itch. “If I’m going to be serious… I miss you.”
As he said that, he tightened his hand behind her back, and he gently raised her face. Their eyes met.

“What are you… Ngh…”
Before she could even finish her words, she was immediately shut up by him getting close to her.
“Hey,”
“Be nice.”
Jeffrey responded by swallowing her whole as his hand began to move behind her back.
The sound of him being moved by his love took away whatever logic she still had in her mind as she responded to him. He wasn’t the only one missing her. She missed him a lot too!
She was mad at him all this time, forcing herself to stay away from him… She had enough of that life!
The two of them fell on the soft pillow as they kissed each other passionately. Only when she felt that he was getting more aggressive did Melanie recover some of her sensibleness and said, “You can’t do anything too rigorous with that wound of yours.”
Jeffrey released her lips and had his forehead to hers, saying with a hoarse voice, “You’re not in a state where you can do any rigorous activity as well… We’ll stop at a point…”
And then he kissed her lips again.
It had been a long time since they had had such a wonderful night.
Melanie’s heart was calm. The man sleeping next to her was the man she wanted, and they trusted each other
now…
“If you’re injured, why didn’t you rest until you recovered? Why are you running all around the place?” She questioned him as she frowned.
“Let me ask you the same question. You’re pregnant. Why didn’t you rest, and run around instead?”
“Don’t hide from the main point,” Melanie said as she raised her eyebrow.
“Fine, I’ll stick to the main point.”
Jeffrey became serious again. “I don’t want you to become too overworked, but if I don’t tell you this, someone else with their own agenda will tell you about it. That’s why I would rather confess now.”
“About what?”
“The reason that I first got close to you isn’t because I know you’re the one that accepted Emma’s heart.”
Jeffrey looked at her sincerely. “I won’t give up everything and start looking for a person just because she might have some of Emma’s memories and approach her.”
“Then, why?”
