I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 70 The Signal
“A bunch of thugs, up to no good.”The private detective summarized, "But if they're following you here, it's unlikely for robbery or assault. This auction is not a good time for such activities.""I think so too."Melanie nodded in agreement, "I don't know who's behind them yet. For now, let's not startle the snake. Just keep an eye on their movements.""But Ms. Melanie, their seats are right next to yours. Aren't you afraid that-""I'm not."Melanie was confident, "The person directing them wants to witness my embarrassment firsthand. So, they won't take drastic actions during the auction. When I take off my hat as a signal, that's your cue to act.""Understood."The private detective agreed, then turned and left, swiftly blending into the crowd who were looking for their seats.Melanie settled into her seat, and soon, the two men who had been following her took seats nearby.The auction began.Melanie did not participate in the earlier auction items. She kept her head dow
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 71 A Chance Encounter
The man next to her intentionally held up his paddle in front of Melanie's face but kept his face away, and Melanie knew her guess was likely accurate.Fortunately, she was prepared.In this way, as others began bidding, each time Melanie raised her paddle, the man next to her followed suit. She discreetly held her breath, noticing the man paying even more attention to her reactions.Seizing the opportunity, she pretended to feel a bit dizzy, rubbing her temples as she got up and headed toward the exit.The man beside her had not expected her sudden departure. Hesitating for a moment, he followed her out. Melanie walked briskly in front, feigning a stagger.Reaching the last row of seats, suddenly, an arm extended from her left, blocking her way. She lost her balance and fell into the arms of the person in front of her.She raised her almond-shaped eyes, looking at the man's face in the dim light. "Jeffrey..."How did she encounter Jeffrey everywhere?In such a small-scale auct

Inside the van.As soon as Melanie was tossed into the vehicle, those inside promptly responded, shielding her. Subsequently, the two men who followed were also subdued by those in the van.How they had treated her earlier was now turned against them with ten times the force."Ms. Melanie, we have control of the people who were assisting them outside. This is their leader. You can ask him anything." The private detective informed Melanie.The man who had been trailing her had no idea what was happening and was securely bound."Why were you sent to abduct me?" Melanie asked after removing her hat and fixing her disheveled dress."We really don't know, Ms. Please spare us! We're just doing it for the money." The three thugs began pleading for mercy."Tell me who instructed you, and I might spare you. Otherwise, there will be no mercy." Melanie's voice turned stern."We genuinely don't know. It was Damien who contacted the buyer. We were just messengers." The thugs wailed, terrifi
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 73 Who Kidnapped Whom?
"Alright."The private detective agreed and asked, "Are you still going to the hospital?""Yes."Melanie thought for a moment and said, "Since Lena is so eager to see me, I'll go meet her and put an end to her fantasies.""Okay, we'll be outside, ensuring nothing happens to you," the private detective assured.**Love City Hospital, Room 903.Melanie pushed the door open and saw Lena, with casts on her hands and feet, lying in bed looking quite miserable. Lena, who usually wore heavy makeup, now appeared frightened with her pale and unhealthy complexion."Melanie?"Surprised to see her enter, Lena muttered under breath, "This Damien!"They sent her over without any notice. Lena had not even had a chance to groom herself. She looked thoroughly unprepared.She was covered in injuries, while Melanie casually strolled in. Anyone unaware might think Melanie had come to mock her!Lena adjusted her hair, widening her eyes theatrically, "Looks like my people have been too kind to y
I Became His Sweetheart Chapter 74 I’ve Been Too Indulgent Towards You
Melanie calmly sat in the private detective's car, and a cold, determined glint appeared in her almond-shaped eyes.Lena was not very bright. Someone always had to clear up her mess."Ms. Jones."The private detective's voice interrupted her thoughts. "Your people, are still following behind."Melanie raised her almond eyes in surprise, looking at the rearview mirror.Seeing Jeffrey's black Maybach steadily parked behind, she smiled helplessly. "Well, there's nothing more happening today. Thank you for your help. I'll take my leave now.""You are my young lady's best friend, no need for thanks," the private detective responded politely.Melanie walked towards the Maybach in the back, and the driver opened the door for her.She glanced at Jeffrey, casually opened the car's mini-fridge, took out a bottle of water, and took a few sips. The icy sensation helped her fully wake up."You walked unsteadily in the auction house. Did you get drugged?" Jeffrey asked."Yes," she replied

"President Morgan, what do you mean?"Melanie who had turned her back to Jeffrey, felt annoyed by the reprimand."Don't understand anything, do you? Do you think you've fulfilled your duties as a wife?" Jeffrey's voice lowered a few degrees, carrying a strong warning.Melanie took a deep breath, trying to stabilize her emotions, and retorted, "If you demand that I fulfill the duties of a wife, why don't you first inquire whether the duties of a husband are being fulfilled?" She was genuinely irritated, and after saying this, she slammed the door and left.However, just as she walked a short distance, she saw a housemaid with Dr. Noah sitting in the study, waiting."Dr. Noah? Why are you here?" Melanie asked with suspicion."I came to treat Mr. Morgan's injuries," Dr. Noah said as he smoothed his white beard.At this moment, the bathroom door opened, and Jeffrey, using a crutch, slowly walked over. The housemaid assisted him to sit down, allowing Dr. Noah to perform acupuncture a

Melanie nodded, leaving the box behind, she put on her coat and grabbed her bag before hastily heading out.The investigative team was there to look into the plagiarism of the proposal.They conducted their inquiry professionally, questioning each member of the project team, including Melanie. Almost everyone involved in the proposal discussion could recall the details effortlessly.During the lunch break, Melanie politely inquired, "I wonder if the experts have concluded this incident?"The members of the investigative team shook their heads.They explained to Melanie, "To be frank, we came to your company after completing the investigation at White Group. Before coming here, the chairman and a few judges who were present at that time briefed us on the basic situation. We have a general idea, but unexpectedly, collecting evidence has proven to be difficult."Implicitly, Melanie understood that the White Group had been meticulous this time, making it challenging for the investiga

Melanie, unaware of many details, had a satisfying lunch and returned to continue her diligent work as an employee.In the afternoon, the investigation team concluded their questioning and began packing up to leave.Before departing, they left with a firm attitude. "Ms. Jones, Jones Enterprise cannot produce any evidence to prove its innocence. Now, with the testimony from White Group and public opinion online pointing fingers at you, we have reason to believe that Jones Enterprise is finding it difficult to shake off the responsibility for the plagiarized proposal.""Dear experts, please give us another chance. Our new product line is ready. Calling a halt at this moment would have a tremendous impact on Jones Enterprise." Melanie and several leaders from the Perfume Division chased after the investigation team, doing their best to advocate for themselves."Now, saying anything won't help unless you present evidence!"The investigation team showed disdain, continuing to walk away
