Chapter 384 Reason for Hiding

“Nothing special.”

Melanie answered calmly.

Joseph then stopped looking at her and looked down. “I owe both mother and son a lot, so I’ve been

trying to

find a way to compensate them all this while. I wonder if the gods will give me this chance.”

After pausing for a while, he then looked at Melanie. “Well, aren’t you supposed to console me at a

time like

this?”

“I thought that someone like you wouldn’t want to hear words that mean nothing.” Melanie answered.

“All I

can say is that… It will become true if you believe in it.”

“Haha!”

Joseph let out a laugh, his loneliness suddenly gone. “You’re getting more and more interesting, girl!”

Melanie used this chance to ask him, “Is it because I’m interesting that you’ve been monitoring me?”

Joseph obviously frowned and the atmosphere around them immediately cooled down. In the silence,

refused to give up. She didn’t change the subject, because she had been seeking the answer to that

question.

The butler couldn’t help but tightened his hands behind his back.

After a while, Joseph’s eyes moved. He didn’t want the confrontation to continue and resumed the

conversation. “Why did you ask that?”

“You and Leo both treat me very well… So well that I’m getting wary of it. I was curious about it, so I

wanted to

ask you directly. Why?” Melanie asked.

“While my two grandsons are proficient in blending fragrances, their potential is quite ordinary. They’re

not the

cream of the crop. And also, because of their special identity, the Yorks will need you when we’re in

similar

circumstances after this. Just like how you helped that Ustalian yesterday,” Joseph explained.

He then turned and glanced at Melanie. “As for why Leo is treating you that well you can go ask him

yourself.”

After he said that, Melanie couldn’t ask him anything more. However, the doubt in her heart hadn’t been

dispelled. The attention that he was giving her was not something as simple as wanting to recruit her

for his

plans.

They chatted for about half an hour. When Melanie saw Joseph was getting a little tired, she then left

and said

her farewells.

The butler personally saw her out and kept on apologizing, saying that it was the Yorks‘ fault for not

being able to stop the assassination from taking place and ending up giving her a fright.

He suggested sending her back to the hotel with their own car to prevent anyone else from attempting

to harm her, but Melanie rejected his proposal, saying that her friend’s car was waiting outside and that

she wouldn’t be in danger.

She had spent a lot of time with Joseph and didn’t want to make the injured boy wait any longer.

After seeing Melanie off, the butler immediately returned to the study and said, “Master Joseph, I’ve

seen Ms.

Melanie off.”

“Has she completed her divorce with Jeffrey?” Joseph asked with a frown.

“Jeffrey hasn’t signed it yet,” the butler said.

“Find a woman that looks like her to make their relationship deteriorate further. This idea came from a

certain …Nathan Quinn?” Joseph asked again. “I vaguely remember that name. Where have I heard it

before?”

“Nathan is Emma’s brother. The Quinns also had some businesses here many years ago, but they’re

no longer in Medonia,” the butler explained. “Nathan was Master Leo’s peer in the business school.

You must have

heard his name back then.”

“Leo?”

“Yes, but Master Leo and Nathan are not acquainted with each other,” the butler explained.

Joseph nodded and then asked, “Why does Nathan want to ruin the relationship between Melanie and

Jeffrey?”

“All those years ago, Jeffrey and Emma were in love. His relationship with Nathan was also quite

cordial. After Emma’s death, Nathan must have been affected as well. I believe that… He couldn’t

stand Jeffrey falling in

love with another woman,” the butler said as he analyzed the situation.

“You believe?”

Joseph suddenly opened his eyes, a hint of viciousness in them.

The butler subconsciously bent over and quickly said, “This is just my analysis… It’s not necessarily the

truth…”

“You don’t even believe your own words! Ever since Nathan went back, everything he did was against

them. Is there a deeper reason for all of this?”

After pausing a while, Joseph immediately said, “Investigate him! Leave no stones unturned!”

“Of course, Master Joseph!” the butler said.
