Chapter 440 False Witness

“Sure.”

Even if it was a trap, she could only get closer to the truth by facing it directly.

Melanie agreed to it without any hesitation. Nethan immediately led her to a quieter balcony. After

closing the door leading to the balcony, only then did he make a request for a conference call to

Clement.

The man on the screen looked somewhat familiar. His hair was all white, but Melanie could still

remember his face. That was because a few months after the surgery, she’d gone to visit Clement at

the hospital frequently. He was the one that had organized her physical therapy.

“Uncle Cyrus…”

Melanie was still using the name she’d used to refer to him when she was little.

“Are you doing well now, Melanie? This is great!” Clement said with a smile.

“How are you and your family?” Melanie asked.

“We’re doing well,” Clement answered without hesitation.

“Uncle Cyrus, there’s something I want to ask you…” Melanie immediately asked.

“I know what you want to ask,” Clement said on his own initiative. “Someone just asked me about the

surgery some time ago… Your dad is a good doctor and director. He wouldn’t have harmed another

just because he wanted to save you. By the time Emma reached the hospital, she already brain dead.

Your father made the decision to prepare the surgery at the final moment and asked me to perform the

heart–transplant surgery on you.”

Melanie wasn’t surprised to hear that.

She had never doubted her father’s kindness.

Melanie nodded and said, “I want to ask you one more thing. Did someone from Morgan Group ever

look for you and ask you about the surgery?”

There was a glint in Clement’s eyes. He said, “Yes. A few years ago, around the time when your dad

was… well, someone from Morgan Group came to look for me. Wanted me to make a false testimony

saying that Emma wasn’t dead, and that your dad was the one that killed her… I refused, but I was also

afraid to get into trouble, so I migrated with my whole family…”

Melanie looked at Clement’s expression carefully and asked, “Why did

wtell you to do that?”

“I’ve been thinking about that same question as well. I don’t know why they asked me to be a false

witness, but I can tell that they wanted to do something to your father!” Clement said.

“Uncle Clement, I’ll go over to Medonia in a few days. Can we meet up?” Melanie asked.

“Of course. There are things that can only be clarified when we meet each other,” Clement nodded.

They hung up.

Melanie frowned while Nathan looked at her and said, “I didn’t lie to you.

“Uncle Clement’s current address… Can you give that to me?” She asked.

“You and I have been looking for him, but so are the people from Morgan Group. The less people know

about his address the better. Once you’re ready, I’ll take you there,” Nathan wasn’t planning to tell her

directly.

“Sure.”

Melanie didn’t force it. At this time, Pam came back and continued to bug Nathan, asking if she looked

nice in her new dress. Melanie left at this time.

She was feeling somewhat gloomy and didn’t want to stay in the gala anymore, and so she sent a

message to her mother about leaving early.

Melanie didn’t go back to Marina Heights and instead went to Annie’s apartment. She’d already bought

the apartment one floor below Annie’s. The original fixtures and fittings for the place were already quite

tasteful, so she didn’t want to change anything. Since she couldn’t breathe in any methanal during her

pregnancy, she moved in directly.

Annie had helped her switch out some of the furniture that Melanie commonly used. She was planning

to stay with Melanie in her new home.

The two ladies didn’t know much about cooking, so they ordered takeout. Just when they were going to

celebrate Melanie moving in, the doorbell rang.

Annie opened the door and then yelled, “Ah! I thought he was here to deliver the food, but the delivery

boy is just too forceful! I’m leaving now! You can do what you like!”
