Chapter 394 Confession Melanie wiped her tears away and said, âI have a few questions that I want to ask you.â
âSay it.â
Jeffrey sternly looked at the woman that was being serious. As long as she wasnât asking for a divorce, he would do whatever she wanted.
âWhen did you find out Iâm pregnant?â she asked.
Jeffrey stopped, frowning. So, she heard it....
âAfter you received your report,â he answered honestly.
âBut I thought the Snowsâ private investigators...â
âThey secretly changed the result of your report and even dealt with the doctor. However, that was because I made them believe that they succeeded,â Jeffrey said.
Melanie rolled her eyes. He was truly quite tyrannical.
That was why Jeffrey kept on shadowing her after she joined the York familyâs party, always within a certain distance. It was all to protect her.
âI see.â
Melanie nodded and took the handkerchief that Jeffrey gave her, wiping her tears away. Then she said, âIâll give you a chance to confess everything. From the beginning, when you approached me, till now, what else are you hiding from me?â
Jeffrey stood up, hand on the wound in his abdomen. He lifted the blanket and sat on the bed close to her.
âWhat are you doing?â Melanie asked.
âItâs a long story, so Iâm choosing a position thatâs more comfortable.â 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.
âFrom 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.â
âBe serious.â
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. âIf Iâm going to be serious... I miss you.â
As he said that, he tightened his hand behind her back, and he gently raised her face. Their eyes met.

Before she could even finish her words, she was immediately shut up by him getting close to her.
âHey,â
âBe nice.â
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 wasnât 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, âYou canât do anything too rigorous with that wound of yours.â
Jeffrey released her lips and had his forehead to hers, saying with a hoarse voice, âYouâre not in a state where you can do any rigorous activity as well... Weâll stop at a point...â
And then he kissed her lips again.
It had been a long time since they had had such a wonderful night.
Melanieâs heart was calm. The man sleeping next to her was the man she wanted, and they trusted each other now...
âIf youâre injured, why didnât you rest until you recovered? Why are you running all around the place?â She questioned him as she frowned.
âLet me ask you the same question. Youâre pregnant. Why didnât you rest, and run around instead?â
âDonât hide from the main point,â Melanie said as she raised her eyebrow.
âFine, Iâll stick to the main point.â
Jeffrey became serious again. âI donât want you to become too overworked, but if I donât tell you this, someone else with their own agenda will tell you about it. Thatâs why I would rather confess now.â
âAbout what?â
âThe reason that I first got close to you isnât because I know youâre the one that accepted Emmaâs heart.â
Jeffrey looked at her sincerely. âI wonât give up everything and start looking for a person just because she might have some of Emmaâs memories and approach her.â
âThen, why?â
