Chapter 454: Chatper 463

Chapter 463 Bloodline Madam Morgan was indeed Yelena’s close friend, and it was only natural that their families were close because of that.

And all these years, Melanie’s parents kept her in the dark. They didn’t allow her to enter the world.

of perfumery or tell anyone about her heart transplant surgery, all because of her connection to the York family...

More precisely, it was her father’s connection to the York family.

Melanie remembered that Joseph had personally told her about his missing son and even probed her to see if she knew his son’s birthday....

And Yelena mentioned feeling a sense of familiarity when she saw her...

And the York family’s high regard for her. If it was because of blood ties, then everything made sense.

“These are just my deductions. I don’t know why Madam Jones urgently came to find you. Apart from wanting to inform you of this evidence, she might also mention your lineage.

“But now, if you want to know about your lineage, you’ll probably need a kinship verification from the York family,” Mr. Lincoln said from across the table.

Melanie bit her lip, the taste of blood filling her mouth.

She didn’t want to believe it, but she had to face it all.

*My mom once said the York family’s waters run deep, that they would sacrifice even kin for their own interests. They’re extremely ruthless.

“Even if my mother wanted to tell me about my dad’s lineage, she probably wouldn’t want me to return to the York family,” Melanie said as she clenched her fists tightly under the table.

“In that case, my mom’s sudden accident is likely related to these two matters. Someone didn’t want her to tell me about the evidence of my father’s murder, or perhaps, didn’t want her to tell me about my lineage.”

As she spoke, her voice grew colder. “I’ll investigate from these two angles. Whether it’s the person who wanted to harm my dad or the one who harmed my mom this time, I’ll uncover the truth!”

“Miss Melanie, your relationship with Jeffrey...” Mr. Lincoln was concerned.

+15 BONOS “I’ll handle it,” Melanie replied.

Melanie’s eyes were clear. “Whether it’s sincere or false, the truth will always come to light.”

“Remember also to take care of your health,” Mr. Lincoln added.

Melanie nodded. “How long do you plan to stay this time? Where will you stay?”

“I haven’t told anyone about my visit this time. I was afraid of accidents. I still have a lot of matters to handle back in the country.

Once we’re done here, I’ll leave in the afternoon,” Mr. Lincoln said.

“Then you should also be careful,” Melanie advised.

“Don’t worry, those who want to harm Madam Jones don’t know that I also have this evidence in my hands. I’m not in danger,” Mr. Lincoln reassured her, and the two looked at each other in silence.

After finishing their coffee, Mr. Lincoln got into his car and headed straight to the airport.

In the car, he took out his phone and composed a message.

[I’ve met her.]

Shortly after, he received a reply with just an “OK” gesture.

After watching Mr. Lincoln’s car leave, Melanie turned around and hugged Annie as she closed her eyes.

“Mel, are you okay?” Annie was extremely nervous.

Even she, an outsider, found it difficult to digest all this information at once.

If she felt that way, what about Melanie, who was directly involved in this matter?

“Let me lean on you,” Melanie whispered.

Annie felt her heart ache and held Melanie without moving a muscle. “Don’t worry, no matter what happens, I’m by your side.

Whether you’re facing Morgan Group, the York family, or any big villain, I’ll be with you every step of the way!”

“Thank goodness I have you.”

Melanie wanted to smile, but she found she couldn’t.

She trusted Jeffrey so much. Did he know about all this?

115 BONOS Melanie drew warmth from Annie’s embrace. During this time, Jeffrey called several times, but she didn’t answer.

After some time passed, Professor Turner also called. Annie pulled out Melanie’s phone for her and asked, “Do you want to answer it?”

“Yes.”

Melanie brushed her hair away from her face and answered the call. “Professor, I’ll be back soon.”

“I thought something happened to you. Come back quickly if you’re okay!”

After hanging up the phone, Melanie and Annie got into the car. Melanie squeezed Annie’s hand and said, “Annie, I need you to help me investigate those things Mr. Lincoln mentioned just now. Keep it under wraps.”

“I already knew without you saying It. I’ll find the most trustworthy person to investigate,” Annie nodded, then asked after some thought, “Do you really trust Mr. Lincoln?”

“He’s the person my parents trusted the most,” Melanie summarized easily.

Moreover, she had just witnessed the evidence with her own eyes.

“And what about Jeffrey?” Annie couldn’t help but ask.

Melanie lowered her gaze, thought for a moment, and remained silent.

She wished he was the person she trusted the most.

But now...

Melanie suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, “Annie, can you have someone help me look into someone?”

“Who?”

“Judas.”

Melanie suddenly connected all the dots. She felt like the entire thing might be a huge conspiracy. Before her mother’s accident, Judas called her for help, saying that Jeffrey was sending someone to kill him.

She wondered about his current situation.

As they drove from the cafe towards the research base on the outskirts, Annie received a call from the private investigator.

+15 BONOS With a solemn expression, she told Melanie, “Judas died this morning. His ex–wife also died with him. The police have been to his house. They suspected it was murder, but they haven’t found any suspects yet.”

He was really dead...

Melanie looked down at the news, and there was a shadow over her eyes.
