Chapter 279 Flirtatious
The man had a bony face with very prominent cheeks. He had handsome features and his lips curved
downward. His hair, brows, and sideburns were neatly trimmed, and even his collars were properly
ironed.
Melanie instinctively felt that he was probably the cleanest man she had ever seen in the past twenty–
odd
years.
He was one of the Yorks‘ heirs?
Before coming to Medonia, she had read up on the Yorks. Because the Yorks had a hereditary heart
condition, the family had always had few members.
The patriarch, Joseph York, had one son and one daughter, but they both passed away when they
were still young. They had left behind two young grandchildren for Joseph. One was said to be very
violent, and the other quite hardhearted. She wondered which of these two he was…
The high–ranking officer read the bloody report and called the police station’s laboratory, asking them
to do the same test on the same sample.
“Bring me the person that brought us the report with no silicon traces!” The high–ranking officer yelled
harshly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVery quickly, his subordinate came over to report to him.
“Since we got to the island, we didn’t see the person who reported that there was no silicon residue…
No one knows where he went… He must be the culprit’s mole!”
“Idiots!”
The high–ranking officer roared angrily. But when he remembered that he had been deceived as well,
all he could do was suppress his anger, and he said, “Take him to the hospital for treatment!”
He then turned around and said to the man, “Looks like the culprit is quite bold, modifying our evidence
like that! Thank you for safeguarding the truth for us, Mr. York!”
Cough!
The man coughed a few more times and said, “It’s nothing. My grandfather bas asked our men to keep
an eye on the result of the analysis. I’m worried that they’re not thorough enough so I went over to
monitor things myself. I didn’t expect something like this to have happened.”
“Mr. Joseph must be very pleased that you are so attentive!” The officer quickly praised him.
A large group of officers had formed a human barrier at the dock and both Jeffrey and Cyrus couldn’t
cross over. When the alert was called off, Jeffrey quickly rushed over without waiting a second longer
and immediately pulled Melanie into his arms. William held an umbrella over them.
Melanie turned around and looked at the man in shock before thanking him. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
He approached her and Jeffrey and said, “I’m Leo York. You have a great sense of smell. I admit that
you’re

Jeffrey gritted his teeth, turning away and leaving with Melanie under his protection. He couldn’t take it
when Leo flirted with his woman in front of him, treating him as air!
When Cyrus heard the good news from the officer, he cried, “Since we have the truth now, what are
you doing?
Why don’t you free my disciple?!”
“Miss Melanie is only free for now, but she can’t leave the island. That’s because we still haven’t found
the real murderer. As such, she’s still our prime suspect,” the officer said.
“This is ridiculous!”
Cyrus was so angry that he raised his crutch, but his assistant quickly stopped him. How could he be
so violent against the police officers…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Isn’t this enough evidence to clear her of any suspicion? If you can’t catch the murderer forever, does
that
mean she has to stay on this island forever?”
“Elder Gibson, please don’t make things difficult for us. These are the rules. Miss Melanie really isn’t
allowed to leave the island,” the officer said stubbornly.
Cyrus still wanted to argue but Jeffrey managed to calm him down. “It’s not a problem if she can’t leave
the island. It’s only a matter of time before they catch the culprit. You’re being too pessimistic.”
“You fool!”
Since Cyrus couldn’t vent his anger on the police, he directed it toward Jeffrey instead. “You kept on
flirting with my disciple earlier… Is that all a sham? This is not Harbor City and not my territory! Why do
you want to keep her here?!”
