Her Seven Little Bodyguards novel Chapter 352

Chapter 356

Naturally, Hanson heard every single word of their exchange. He had his doubts about this already, and now that Melanie looked like a deer caught in the headlights, his doubts solidified.

If Melanie's not the woman from that night, who is? Who gave birth to the children?

His eyes flitted over to Vania before he could even control himself. He was in disbelief as he asked himself, Could it be her?

Was it possible that all the children she gave birth to were his? Were they actually septuplets?

There was a storm raging inside Hanson right now as he found it hard to believe that such a thing could happen. Still, there was not enough evidence of this right now, so it was still just a guess.

Moreover, this matter might involve Eddie. He was determined to get to the bottom of this.

Vania made the comment in passing, so she did not anticipate the magnitude of Melanie's reaction.

Her instincts were telling her that there was something to be discovered here, but now was not the time to dwell on this. She simply stared at the ashen-faced Melanie and said, "If you don't want to continue causing a scene, then stop right now."

In reality, Melanie had no way to turn things around anymore. She had tried time and time again, but when had it ever not ended in disaster? She had long since exhausted any patience or courtesy that might have been shown to her.

However, if she continued to put up a fight now, it might infuriate Hanson enough to look into Morales and Morgan's parentage, and that would destroy everything for her.

In the end, after giving it much thought, Melanie said to the boys, "I still have some things I need to do. You boys go ahead with your father to get a check-up. I'll come and see you again when I can."

Vania was glad that Melanie decided to stop her madness. She held the boys' hands and said, "Let's go."

Morales and Morgan glanced at Melanie before leaving with Vania.

As for Hanson, his eyes had been fixed on Vania all along, and he stared at her with even more affection than before.

While Melanie watched them leave, she thought about what Vania had said, and she decided that things could not carry on like this.

She had to get rid of Vania at once. She could not let her stay by Hanson's side any longer.

Melanie jumped into action at once. She gave Dylan a call and said, "Come and meet me right now. I want to talk to you."

There was some improvement in Jones Enterprise's situation over the last two days, but it wasn't because Melanie helped them. It was just one of Hanson's tactics.

Melanie had deduced that Hanson would use such a tactic, so that was why she said those things to Dylan.

"Okay. I'll meet you at our usual place." Dylan assumed that Melanie was the one who helped Jones Enterprise regain some foothold, so he agreed to her request at once.

It was the same restaurant as last time. By the time he got there, Melanie had been waiting for quite some time.

As soon as Dylan entered the private room, he saw Melanie with disheveled hair and her clothes in disarray. It looked like she had just returned from battle.

Dylan was taken aback. He did not know what happened, but he took a seat opposite her without mentioning it.

Instead, the first thing he said was, "Thank you for helping our company. What did you want to talk to me about today?"

Melanie's mind was full of sinister thoughts right now, but she reined it in a little in front of Dylan. "Since I helped you with overcoming Jones Enterprise's crisis, you should hold up your end of the bargain, right?"

Dylan's brows furrowed slightly. The situation did improve a little for the company, but he still felt rather uneasy.

He had a nagging feeling that something big was about to come, so when he heard Melanie's request, he hesitated.

Melanie urged impatiently, "What? You're chickening out now? You don't want Vania anymore?"

Nothing had gone her way so far, and now that she saw the hesitation in Dylan's eyes, she blew up at him. "Have you forgotten who helped you overcome this crisis?"
