Chapter 847
Even after leaving the hospital, Melanie did not dare to think too deeply about the meaning behind
Eugene’s words. It felt like he was hinting at something, but she did not want to know what.
When she hurried back to the hotel and saw Merry playing with Yvonne, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Yvonne was puzzled. “Why do you look so anxious? Is someone on your tail?”
Melanie went over to hug Merry and kiss her on the cheek. Merry immediately stuck to her like glue.
“By the way,” Yvonne said, “Timothy’s brother is asking around about you. He probably ran into
trouble with Eugene, so now he’s looking for you directly.”
Melanie frowned. “What does he want from me?”
“1 don’t know, but you should be careful. Timothy is a nasty piece of work, and his brother is
probably
even worse.”
Yvonne was right. It was always good to be careful.

That night, as expected, Melanie received a call from Timothy’s brother. His attitude was pushy, and
he demanded to meet Melanie.
Melanie had just put Merry to bed. She went out on the veranda to answer the phone, declining his demands
outright.
The man was clearly displeased. “Miss Smith, all this started because of you. Don’t you think you should be
responsible for the consequences of your actions?”
He was being unreasonable. Timothy was the one who picked a fight and ended up behind bars for it. Why
should she be the one to take responsibility?
She could not help but ask, “What do you mean? How do you wantto take the responsibility?”
“Timothy is in jail now, and Eugene was injured. All three of you were involved, but in the end, you were the only
one who escaped unscathed.” The voice on the other end of the line was full of contempt. “Melanie, | heard that
you're doing well in Nava. In that case, I'm sure you know the extent of my family’s influence here.”
That was a blatant threat. Melanie pinched the space between her eyebrows..
If she wanted to continue to develop her career in Nava, she could not afford to offend the Harmons any further.
Surprisingly, Stella also reached out to her after Timothy's older brother had his turn.
She was as haughty as ever, tossing a file in front of Melanie. “I don’t care what you said to Eugene, but he can’t
make an enemy of the Harmons.*
Melanie looked at Stella, who was tapping the file in front of her.

Stella ranted, “Eugene isn’t going to relent. He is determined to send Timothy to jail! Did he was trying to get a
partnership with the Harmons recently? Now you've gone and ruined everything.”

Eugene had indeed been spending more twith Timothy recently. Melanie had considered that there could be
a deal in the books. However, she looked at Stella. “What he does with Timothy is his business. What does it
have to do with me? You should take it up with him.”
Stella slammed the table and scowled. She looked like she was about to swear like she always did. However, she

it’s equivalent to losing LeapCo.”
It was the first tStella had spoken to Melanie in such a tone. The fatigue in her eyes sanded
down her sharp edges, and she finally looked older than her years.
Melanie’s expression darkened. “You’re mistaken. He’s the one who won’t letgo.”
The years she had spent with Eugene had been the best years of her life.
They were happy once, in the beginning. Even though Eugene was cold by nature, he had always
treated her differently from the others.
He would remember her tastes and worry about her night blindness..
When did things change? When did their paths diverge?
To be honest, Melanie had never thought about it seriously. She knew she would just end up

Before leaving, Melanie returned the file to Stella without saying anything.
