Chapter 272: Chapter 281

Chapter 281 Matchmaking “Leo’s the one that protected the key evidence with his men, which proved my theory right. Otherwise, the test result for the silicon would have been changed. I believe that I owe him thanks for that,” Melanie explained.

“Oh?”

Joseph turned around and gave Leo a glance. “You’re being attentive for once!”

He paused a little before turning around and said, “But It’s all useless. The culprit surrendered himself while you were on your way to the station. Even without the test results, Melanie is innocent!”

“You’re right. Cough.”

Leo nodded gently, pushing the wheelchair from behind.

Joseph turned around and looked at Melanie before saying, “There’s no need to thank him. You youths have your own rules, so you can talk about it on your own. For now, let us eat.”

“Sure.”

Melanie nodded while Leo gave her a faint smile.

She suddenly realized that the atmosphere was a little awkward. She turned around and saw Jeffrey frowning very deeply.

She wanted to slow down and wait for him, sensing his jealousy. Then, she saw William coming from behind and catching up with Jeffrey.

“Boss, we’ve already released the wrong results at the lab. Which means that the Yorks must have already received news,” William said.

“Around what time?” Jeffrey asked.

William estimated it and told Jeffrey about it. His eyes narrowed. “That means that Joseph already knows that Melanie isn’t a York?”

He frowned even deeper. So, why was the York family still supporting Melanie and standing firmly by her side?

William sensed his boss‘ worry. “Maybe it’s because Joseph and Elder Gibson are friends? Or perhaps, it’s because the madam has helped the Yorks a lot, and he wants to repay her? Or maybe, he simply appreciates her intelligence?”

“That’s not how Joseph does things. There’s a motive to everything he does.”

Jeffrey’s expression darkened. As he thought about it, he suddenly took notice of the man and woman who were on Joseph’s side. Looking at them, they looked like they were a match...

He felt anger burning inside of him as he abandoned William who could only look at him, stunned. He walked over and took over Elder Gibson’s wheelchair from his personal assistant, and pushed him slowly.

Once the coast was clear, Jeffrey suddenly bent over and whispered, “My men changed the results of the +15 BONUS would never let go of the person that he wants easily!” Jeffrey said as he analyzed.

“You’re saying...” Cyrus was being suspicious.

“Don’t you think that Leo’s appearance today is too much of a coincidence?” Jeffrey asked.

“Joseph wants Melanie to be his granddaughter–in–law?” Cyrus mumbled to himself.

“That’s why I need your help.”

Jeffrey lowered his head and mumbled something into Cyrus’s ears. After listening, Cyrus raised his head and glanced at Jeffrey.

“I gave it a thought just now, and that Leo isn’t that bad...”

Jeffrey was speechless.

“I should let Leo clear all those random men from my disciple’s heart, and when she finally falls in love with somebody, things will be much easier!” Cyrus intentionally taunted him.

Jeffrey sighed and said, “Am I really that bad?”

“You’re Cece’s grandson, so you’re not that bad. But don’t think I don’t know that you used to torture my disciple.” Cyrus turned around and glared at Jeffrey. “When you’re torturing my disciple, you’re also torturing yourself! What’s the point in that?”

When he saw Jeffrey in deep thought, he asked, “Speaking of which... You said your men destroyed the test results, but did you see the actual results?”

Jeffrey shook his head. “The Yorks are very careful. Destroying it is difficult.”

Cyrus narrowed his eyes and mumbled, “Which means that we still don’t know the results...”

After he said that, he slapped away Jeffrey’s hand and rolled his wheelchair himself, before saying, “I promise to help you this time, but if you harass my disciple again, I’ll show you no mercy!”
