Chapter 344 Last Value

Melanie and Leo had just reached the staircase on the second floor when they saw Jeffrey coming up.

The three of them glanced at each other for a few seconds before Leo asked, “You’re coming up here

to get some rest as well?”

Jeffrey cared little for his tone and immediately replied, “I heard that Miss Melanie isn’t feeling well, so

I’m coming up to check on her.”

“Looks like you care about Melanie a lot.” Leo’s voice was very cold.

Jeffrey didn’t change his expression. His eyes stayed on Melanie’s face as he said, “Miss Melanie is

my partner for the night. How can I not care about her?”

Leo wanted to say something else, but a servant came up to him. It seemed like there was something

urgent. He quickly said his goodbye before leaving, and only Melanie and Jeffrey were left on the

staircase.

“How did things go?” Jeffrey asked as he took another step forward.

The two of them were at the same height as they were separated by one step.

“We’re right.” Melanie nodded.

Ten minutes ago.

A maid suddenly came looking for Melanie in the washroom, saying that Leo was looking for her. Isla

wished that Leo and Melanie could get closer, so she pushed her to follow the maid.

Melanie didn’t think much of it, but she didn’t expect the maid to take her to a desolated corner, and

she saw Jeffrey there.

He showed her the message he received. Melanie was shocked. She took out her phone, but there

was no

such message in the chat history between the two of them.

“Someone used my phone to send that message to you and deleted it as soon as it was sent?”

She analyzed and said, “It might be Isla. She was with me in the washroom and our purses were on the

sink.”

Jeffrey nodded. “So, room number seven is a trap.”

“I’ll go take a look,” Melanie said.

“No.” Jeffrey refused her suggestion.

However, Melanie insisted. “I saw Jane go upstairs just now. If I’m right, she’s the trap.”

Jeffrey was still frowning and hesitating, and Melanie continued, “Leo’s partly why Jane appeared. Isla

knew about it beforehand as well. Do you think they have other accomplices?”

“Yes.”

Jeffrey said confidently. William had been keeping an eye on Jane from the outside. He quickly made a

someone and waiting for the next set of instructions. If the person that gave her orders were the Yorks

or Romeros, then she had no need to leave since both Luis and Leo were at the party.

Melanie nodded and agreed with his analysis. “That’s why I need to go take a look. If possible, I can

use this chance to force her to reveal who the people behind this are.”

Seeing that she had already decided, Jeffrey had no choice but to let her go. “Ten minutes. I’ll go look

for you after ten minutes.” He was still afraid of her getting into danger.

“Sure.” She nodded.

She had just wanted to leave when he held her hand, his eyes full of worry. “Are you sure you’re okay?”

She smiled and said she was fine. Then, she went upstairs to meet Jane. That was why the scene in

room number seven occurred. Because she was sure that Jane would only expose who was behind

her when she was afraid.

“But I didn’t expect Leo to appear so soon. Just two more minutes and I could have asked who they

are,” Melanie said in disappointment.

“Leave it to me. You don’t have to worry about it.” Jeffrey calmed her down.

“Nothing’s happening upstairs,” Melanie said as she looked up. “Jane was obviously hesitating. She

wanted to give up the people behind her and Leo saw what she was trying to do… Will he do

something to her?”

“You’re worried about her?”

“I’ll go up and take a look,” she said.

Jeffrey shook his head, but Melanie simply gave him a bright smile. “Just five minutes, alright? Five

minutes and you can come look for me. You can calm down now, can’t you? Mr. Morgan?”

“Go.”

Jeffrey shook his head helplessly as he let the woman quickly go back up to the third floor.

Room number seven.

Jane bit her lips tightly till it bled. She was nervous and terrified, but she still couldn’t avoid Nathan’s

call.

“Melanie’s suspecting you now?” Nathan asked immediately.

When Jeffrey suddenly turned back and Melanie was the one that went up, he already knew that his

plan failed.

“Yes…”

“Repeat to me everything that she said to you!” Nathan said coldly.

Jane shuddered and told him everything about the conversation that she could remember.

Nathan paused before continuing with an even icier tone, “I didn’t expect you to not even make it for

three

“Mr. Quinn, it’s not that I’m not doing my best… But they’re… too…” Jane cried again. She didn’t

understand what she did wrong and how she ended up so far from Nathan’s expected results.

“Looks like you only have your last value left.”
