Chapter 451 Bullet

Melanie’s vision blacked out for two seconds.

After a brief moment of disorientation, she instinctively rushed forward and embraced Clement’s

emaciated body.

“Clement!”

She and Clement were the only ones in the room. His eyes were wide open, and a bullet had pierced

through his temple.

He wasn’t breathing anymore.

“Quick! Someone!” Nathan’s voice echoed from behind as he quickly rushed over and instructed.”

Protect this place!”

Melanie felt somewhat detached. The voices in her ears seemed unreal, and there was a constant

buzzing in her ears. She watched Nathan’s bodyguards rush forward and encircle them

protectively.

“Melanie!”

At that moment, sounds of struggle erupted outside. Jeffrey charged in soon after, running directly

to her and embracing her.

Nathan’s subordinates took the opportunity to start moving Clement’s body…

Melanie wanted to intervene, but she felt powerless. Every step she took seemed to make her

vision darken.

Thankfully, Jeffrey supported her from behind, preventing her from collapsing…

She made an effort to steady herself and walked towards Nathan. She demanded, “What’s going

on here? Do you even want me to know the truth?”

“You’re asking me?” Nathan looked at her coldly, then glanced at Jeffrey.

“You told him Clement’s location, allowing him to take Clement’s life! Don’t look at me with such

resentment. If someone indeed killed Clement, it’s because of you and Jeffrey!” Nathan finished angrily,

then stormed off.

The sound of the gunshot still echoed in Melanie’s mind, and Clement’s frozen expression kept flashing

before her eyes.

She felt like she was trapped in a nightmare…

When she finally regained some clarity, she found herself seated in Jeffrey’s car.

“How do you feel? I’ll take you to the hospital right away.”

“What about Clement?” she asked.

“Nathan’s people took him away. Don’t worry. My men are also following. They’ll take care of him.

properly.” Jeffrey furrowed his brows slightly.

Melanie leaned back In her seat and closed her eyes. She needed to stay calm!

“I haven’t told anyone else about meeting Clement except you,” She murmured to herself, sorting out

her thoughts.

“If then there’s only one possibility: Nathan staged it himself.”

it wasn’t you

Before entering the building, she confirmed that Nathan’s bodyguards were everywhere outside. It was

difficult for anyone to shoot through walls and kill a person with a single shot.

“Don’t dwell on it…”

Jeffrey’s voice carried concern for her. He couldn’t help but reach out to gently stroke her head. trying

to ease her tension.

“Where are we going?” she asked after a while.

“I’ll take you to the hospital,” he replied, realizing she hadn’t heard what he said earlier.

“Take me back to your hotel,” Melanie insisted.

She didn’t need to go to the hospital for any check–ups right now. What she needed was a safe place,

preferably with a bed and a warm blanket–she longed for that familiar sense of security.

Her heart was still trembling…

Jeffrey held her tightly. His Adam’s apple trembled as he instructed the driver to change direction.

Jeffrey stayed with Melanie in the hotel room for a few hours. By late afternoon, Melanie had calmed

down considerably.

She got up from the bed and said, “Pamela hasn’t seen me all day. I need to go back.”

“You don’t have to force yourself. Just make a phone call and explain the situation,” Jeffrey said,

reluctant to let her go.

Melanie shook her head. “Pamela needs me. It’s the same whether I’m at the York estate or lying

in bed here.”

Knowing he couldn’t keep her, Jeffrey instructed the driver to take her back to the York estate.

Yelena finished dinner and began another round of treatment.

After dinner, Pamela wanted to talk to her, but Melanie instinctively went upstairs to avoid her. She

feared that if Pamela asked about where she and Nathan had been, she might collapse.

Back in her room, Melanie locked the door. She wrapped herself in the blanket and buried herself in

bed, hugging her knees tightly. But the more she hugged, the colder she felt…

It was the first time she had seen a living person die in front of her!

Clement’s terrified face and wide eyes kept flashing in her mind…

She needed to relieve the pressure. More importantly, she needed to maintain her composure!

In the early hours of the morning, a strange sound came from the direction of the bathroom again.
