Chapter 355 You Have Me in Your Heart

After pausing for a few seconds, the dizziness disappeared.

Melanie stood upright. “I’m fine.”

It was then that she noticed she had accidentally scratched her finger on a wooden splinter by the wall

causing it to bleed.

“You expect me to believe that you’re fine? If you’re not in good health, rest more. Why were you so

anxious to

come here?” Gabriel shook his head with concern.

Above their heads, there happened to be a surveillance camera. In the monitoring room stood a man

with a strong and commanding presence. He zoomed in on the image, focusing on Gabriel’s hand,

which was holding Melanie’s arm. His Adam’s apple bobbed frantically.

The man standing behind her should have been him!

Jeffrey furrowed his brows and gritted his teeth.

William asked cautiously, “President Morgan, they’re out of the fragrance blending room, so the

surveillance

can’t capture them anymore. Are you still going to watch?”

Jeffrey’s eyes turned dark. “Do you have band-aids?”

“Yes.”

William hurriedly took out a band-aid from his pocket, which his wife always made him carry. Jeffrey

grabbed

it, and walked out of the monitoring room.

Melanie and Gabriel returned to the hotel across the street, each heading to their respective rooms.

The sky was dark, threatening to rain. Melanie was a bit worried about Annie. She knew her friend was

careless, and probably didn’t bring an umbrella.

Just as Melanie was about to call Annie, she heard someone knocking on her door. Thinking it was

Gabriel, she opened the door. The anxious man standing at the door surprised her.

“Your hand…”

Jeffrey looked at her injured finger, and saw that there was already a band-aid on it. Did Gabriel give it

to her? He was a step too late….

“It’s just a small injury, President Morgan. As I’ve said before, please don’t follow me.” Melanie’s tone

was

cold and harsh.

Jeffrey frowned again. “I was passing by.”

“If you were just passing by, please act like a passerby and don’t knock on my door.”

Melanie tried to close the door, but Jeffrey raised his hand to stop her. The two stood facing each other

for a

moment.

Melanie’s clear eyes showed some impatience. “If you insist on staying, I will call the police.”

“I just want to explain.”

“Then please say it quickly.”

“Perhaps our start wasn’t pure.” Jeffrey lowered his head, speaking in a low voice, “But now, I have no

ulterior motives toward you. I just know one thing-to cherish the person in front of me.”

His gaze deepened. Melanie instinctively took a step back, reminding herself to stay rational. “If you’re

done. please leave. I don’t care about what you’ve said.”

Her clear eyes, as if containing stars, made Jeffrey unconsciously take a step closer. He approached

her and said, “If you didn’t care, you wouldn’t have taken a step back to avoid me.”

“You’re too confident. You think the only reason I don’t want to see you is because I care about you?

Disgust

is also a possibility.” Melanie lowered her gaze, avoiding his stare.

However, Jeffrey didn’t back off. In an instant, he invaded her space as he stepped into the room.

Melanie couldn’t stop him in time. To avoid physical contact, she could only step back. He advanced,

and she retreated. Soon, there was no more room for her to retreat. He reached out his arms and put it

on either side of her, backing her up against the wall.

Melanie dodged his gaze, her cheeks flushed. Something seemed to erupt and grow wildly within her,

and Jeffrey controlled his breath that was getting rugged. Bending down, he lowered his head, and his

tall nose almost touched her slightly cool one.

Melanie blinked incessantly, gripping her phone tightly. With her eyes shut, she warned, “If you don’t

leave now, I’ll call the police!”

Jeffrey suddenly smiled. “Your breathing is fast, indicating that you do care about me. I’ll give you time.

I’ll wait until you accept my explanation.”

After speaking, he retracted his arms, leaving behind a remark, “Don’t wet your wound.”

Then, he left.

Melanie realized she had been fooled. She quickly closed the door and leaned against it, taking a deep

breath.

Jeffrey looked back at the tightly closed door, his eyes flickering.

Outside, heavy rain began to pour, washing the windows. Melanie’s thoughts returned. She realized

that it was late, and Annie hadn’t returned yet.

She picked up her phone to call Annie, but Annie’s phone remained unreachable.

Melanie became tense and quickly contacted the private detective from the Snow family, asking him to

inform the Snow family members in Medonia and ask their help in finding Annie.

She also quickly put on clothes and waterproof boots. Then, she grabbed an umbrella and prepared to

go out
