I Became His Sweetheart

Chapter 486 The Frost Family

Melanie touched her belly with her lips shut before nodding after a while.

She couldn’t protect herself at this stage.

If she were to go back to lead and fight for the Morgan Group, how could she guarantee her child’s safety?

Then she had to give birth to her child first. Even if the Yanceys had already acquired the Morgan Group, she could find ways to recover the group’s losses.

“Pamela, can you get all the recent information regarding the Morgan Group and the Yanceys to me?” She asked. “Didn’t you say you won't interfere?” Yelena frowned.

“Don’t worry. | know what is more at stake here, but | still need to make the necessary preparations right now so that | can know them like | know myself. Only then can | strike a critical

victory over them after I’ve given birth,” Melanie said in a gentle tone.

Only then did Yelena nod and order the other servants to gather information for her.

“But there’s something | need to remind you of.”

Yelena remembered something and got closer, then whispered to her, “This time, when | took you

and your mom back here to rest, | didn’t say anything to them, but everyone here is being very respectful of you. Joseph also cares a lot about you, almost at the same level as he did me.”

“You're trying to say that they already realized my identity?” Melanie asked. Yelena nodded.

Melena blinked and said, “To be honest, after my first visit last year, they had already sent someone to investigate my familial relationship. More than once, | think, but both results weren’t

that great.”

“How can that be?” Yelena couldn’t understand why.

“After | give birth to my child, I'll need to ask the professor for a thorough DNA test to find out

what happened,” Melanie answered.

Melanie was going to go into labor as the time passed. The butler personally arranged a maid for

When Joseph heard that she was awake, he personally came over to visit her together with the two York siblings.

The servant helped her down from the bed. Because she had slept for too long, even with the IV drip, Melanie was still quite weak overall. She needed someone to help her walk, and she was quite slow as well.

“Don’t think too much about this. You accompanied Yelena when she’s sick. Now, you can stay here and give birth to your child in peace. This is the repayment my family will give you for taking care of her,” Joseph said.

“That’s right. Stay here and don’t worry about anything. I'll take good care of you like you're our little sister,” Leo said with a nod.

Meanwhile, Harlow simply let out a snort and mumbled, “Like a little sister? So when she has her child, are you going to give her your share of the inheritance?”

While it was just a mumble, everyone could hear Harlow’s words clearly. “Harlow!”

Joseph slammed his walking stick on the ground violently. “Are you getting ahead of yourself again after you're in charge of the family business again?”

Earlier, after Harlow had again and again crossed Melanie and she decided to face him head on, Elder Gibson and Jeffrey worked together with her to force the Yorks to lock him up and give up

his authority.

Now that the Morgan Group had lost their influence and Melanie couldn't even protect herself, as well as the fact that what had happened had passed for quite a while, the Yorks had once again slowly let Harlow out into the public and restored his powers.

“Grandpa...”

Joseph was the only person that Harlow would lower his head for. “I didn’t mean anything by it. | simply didn’t like to see how fake a certain someone is.”

After saying that, he then peeked at Leo and said, “Earlier, you asked me to fight to cooperate with Delfino’s Frost family. | spent a lot of effort, but the Frost family also put a lot of effort into protecting their secrets to the point where the walls erected around them were impenetrable! No one can speak to Mr. Frost if they’re not someone that the family acknowledges! But even then, | was able to gather some information despite that wall of theirs!”

“What's the one thing that can find holes through an impenetrable wall?” Leo sneered.

“You're cursing at me!”

Only then did Harlow realize that Leo was saying that he was a rat, and he was instantly angered.

“You started it,” Leo said with a cold smile.

Yelena and Melanie both sneered as well.

Joseph shook his head and coughed.

His two grandchildren...

Harlow had never learned anything in school properly, and his talents in business were only so- so. However, he was not someone with grace, and he spoke whatever went through his mind. Leo was the complete opposite, but he would act high— and-—mighty everywhere he went... He was an arrogant man...

The butler behind them said, “Enough! Master Joseph had only recovered somewhat recently! Master Harlow, please continue. What did you find out about the Frost family? Delfino had always been something that the company couldn’t breach through. If you can reach an agreement with the Frost family, then we can spread our reputation in Delfino.”

Harlow glared at Leo. The kid had been directly opposing him again and again in public, as if he had already changed...It was like he had found someone that could support him!Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“| heard that the scion the Frost family has hidden has been sick all these years. His illness is something that gnaws at Mr. Frost’s heart all this while. If we can find a doctor to treat his illness, he wouldn't reject us. That’s our chance to get into the Frost family,” Harlow said with confidence.

“What illness?” the butler asked.

“| heard that he’s deaf!” Harlow’s eyes narrowed with contempt.
