Chapter 489 Hatred
One month ago.
When Annie heard that Melanie and Jeffrey were in trouble overseas, Annie wanted to fly over to be with her. However, Professor Turner told her that Melanie was in the York residence, and it wouldn’t be good to have too many people there.
Once Melanie was awake, Annie still wanted to come over, but Melanie had wanted her help to find out where Jeffrey was buried as well as the condition the Morgan Group was in. She was asking Annie to be her eyes back in the country.
Annie could only stay to investigate what Morgan Group did to Jeffrey’s body, but when she dug deeper, she realized she couldn’t find where he was cremated or where his grave was.
Jeffrey seemed to have suddenly disappeared Into thin air, as if he had never even existed.
“Could it be that he never died?”
Melanie’s voice trembled as she held the window Instinctively.
Every time she dreamt of him in the middle of the night, she would wake up in a cold sweat. It seemed like there was a voice deep within her subconscious telling her that Jeffrey didn’t die, that he was waiting for him somewhere.
“Melanie, I know you can’t accept this truth, but everyone that came in to save you saw it. William saw it with his own eyes, too. Jeffrey…didn’t make it… He was already on the spot…” Annie said pitifully.
“But… If he really did die, why didn’t the Morgan Group bury him?” Melanie said, unconvinced.
“Maybe they hid it so that the Morgan Group wouldn’t fall into further.chaos?” Annie analyzed.” But no matter how tightly they keep it a secret, I will find out eventually. Once you’re back, let’s go see him together with your kid. You have to take good care of yourself!”
Melanie’s face was already filled with tears.
Her tears dripped onto her pregnant belly. She only realized it when she felt the slight coldness.
Gabriel was still behind her, and she didn’t want to lose her composure. She pretended to raise her hand and waved as she wiped her tears off. “Sure. What about everyone else?”
“I did as you asked and told my men to keep a close watch on Nathan and Mr. Lincoln. Nathan’s quiet, discreet and suspicious, but Mr. Lincoln seems to be fine. He gave his all while working for your company, and he would always be the last one to leave work every day.” Annie said.
Melanie closed her eyes…
She could never forget that night they were in that sealed room in that ship. Jeffrey had tried to
explain that the man behind her mother getting into the accident, killing the driver, Judas, setting the island on fire, kidnapping them… all of It was caused by Nathan. That he orchestrated all of it.
But she was too angry at the time, and she didn’t believe him.
But now that she thought about it, why did Nathan hate them so much?
What had exactly happened all those years ago?
Mr. Lincoln had personally come to Medonia so that he could show her the proof that the Morgan
Group did harm her father. If Jeffrey was innocent, could Mr. Lincoln be innocent too?
Her father’s death, her mother’s injury, Jeffrey’s death, Morgan Group’s collapse… Nathan
seemed to have a hand in all of this. What were the Yorks and Yanceys‘ role in this?
She instinctively touched her huge belly. She had to keep her head low for now, but it was fine.
Once she had fully recovered, she would personally reveal the secrets behind all these mysteries!
She gritted her teeth as the thought crossed her mind. She then told Annie that she was safe
before hanging up.
“Looks like I’ll have to leave behind a bottle. You can give it a whiff whenever you’re unhappy.”
Gabriel raised his eyebrow and exposed her.
The edge of her lips twitched. She couldn’t smile.
Gabriel wasn’t going to stay for dinner. He wanted to leave after seeing her.
Melanie realized that she hadn’t finished her questioning yet. “Did you sign any agreement with
the Frost family in Delfino?”
“Huh?” Gabriel didn’t understand.
“Looks like you didn’t, yet you can still easily have access to Yarawood. Doesn’t that mean you
have a special relationship with them?” she deduced.
She looked at Gabriel’s expression. He was wearing the face of someone whose secret had been
exposed. She knew she’d gotten it right.
“Are you the scion of the Frost family?”
