Chapter 352 Critical Condition
“Ahem!” Melanie almost choked. “Don’t talk nonsense.”
“If he doesn’t have any intentions toward you, why is he so concerned about you?” said Annie, with a
gossiping look in her eyes.
“Probably just repaying a favor.” Melanie replied.
“Got it.”
Annie pursed her lips.
“It would have been better if you didn’t mention repaying favors, but once you bring it up, it can only be
repaid with marrying him. In my opinion, this Gabriel isn’t bad. He’s quite good-looking, and his strength
in the fragrance world is not inferior to Jeffrey in the business world. Why not consider him? The best
way to heal a
broken heart is to get a rebound.”
“I’m going to sleep.”
Melanie closed her eyes, ignoring the woman next to her who was suggesting dubious ideas.
Out of the corner of her eye, Annie saw Melanie close her eyes. Across the aisle, Gabriel turned off the
overhead night light and removed his hearing aid…
Over ten hours later, the plane arrived in Medonia on time.

Gabriel and his assistant had a lot of luggage. While they were waiting for their luggage, Melanie and
Annie
left first because they packed light. They were just about to hail a taxi when a car stopped in front of
them.
The car door opened. Unexpectedly, Leo came.
“Melanie? You’re in Medonia?” Leo took the initiative to ask.
“Mr. York, weren’t you still in Harbor City the day before yesterday?” Melanie’s eyes flashed with a
sharp light.
“Yes, I came back yesterday. There were some matters at home.”
“Then… Why are you at the airport?” Melanie continued to ask.
“Oh, I came to send a friend, and I happened to see you come out. Where are you going? I’ll give you a
ride.”
Leo pretended it was a chance encounter.
While Melanie was hesitating, a disdainful and cold voice came from behind. “Waiting by the stump for
the
rabbit. There’s still someone using such an outdated method to pick up girls in this day and age?”
The group of people turned to look, and Leo’s expression suddenly turned cold.
The newcomer was a man in his thirties with a pasty complexion. Even though he had a strong build, it
was evident he had been affected by the excesses of alcohol.
Melanie had some impression of this man. Before her first trip to Medonia, she had looked into the
Yorks. If

Harlow, Leo’s elder brother.
Half of Joseph’s children died young. Leo and Harlow’s father was Joseph’s youngest son, who was
considered to have the best constitution among Joseph’s children. Unfortunately, he didn’t live past fifty.
This youngest son married a woman from a family known for strong longevity genes. Therefore, their
two sons, Harlow and Leo, were the only two among Joseph’s grandchildren who lived past thirty.
Consequently, the two of them were in the lead in terms of competing for the family inheritance.
“Harlow.”
Leo lowered his head in front of Harlow, seemingly not daring to look Harlow in the eye.
“So, you still recognize me as your brother.”
Harlow didn’t care about Leo’s pride at all. “I thought after Grandpa met you a few times in private
recently, you became arrogant, thinking you could amount to something! With your small build, be
careful not to die
before getting a woman.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeo looked furious, but he didn’t retort at all. It was completely different from the graceful and beloved
rich young master in front of others.
Harlow was still dissatisfied. He turned his head to scrutinize Melanie, his gaze lecherous and
contemptuous.
“You must be Melanie. I advise you to think twice. Although he’s a young master of the York family, he
won’t live for many more years. Although he can give you a lifetime of wealth and prosperity, he can’t
fulfill your sexual needs. You should refuse to ride with him from the start. It’s better not to catch his
disease. How about you ride in my car instead?”
“I dare not.” Melanie’s eyes were sharp, but her face showed no emotion. “Mr. York, if I dare not ride in
Leo’s car, then I dare not ride in your car either.”
“Why?” Harlow was very dissatisfied, raising his eyes and glaring at her.
“Because I’m afraid of catching the disease,” Melanie said calmly.
“What did you say?”
Harlow was furious. He took a step forward and stared down at Melanie, like ‘a fierce beast with its
bloodthirsty mouth wide open, ready to devour its prey.
“Don’t you know? Your illness is much more severe than Leo’s.”
Melanie wasn’t afraid of him. He was just a man who hollowed out by alcohol and lust.
