Her Seven Little Bodyguards novel Chapter 400

Chapter 404

Vania knew very well that even if she agreed to Melanie's condition, that wouldn't save her child, anyway. In the end, she would be under Melanie's control, and she and her child would be even more miserable.

This was a chance she would never give Melanie.

"As long as I'm around, you can forget about returning to Hanson's side."

"You're more ruthless than me, Vania Grayson. You're not even saving your child because of yourself," Melanie said sarcastically. Although she knew that Vania was strong and stubborn, she didn't expect that she still wouldn't budge even when she blackmailed her with Jude.

What a tough nut to crack, she thought. Then, she threatened again, "Only I know the antidote."

"So, you're really the one who did it," Vania sneered. "Just to return to Hanson's side, you're pulling all the tricks you can think of, huh?"

"That's right. It was me," she admitted and turned to Hanson. "Are you really not considering my offer, Hanson?"

Doesn't he love Vania to bits? Why is he unwilling to save her child now? Melanie wondered, keeping her gaze fixedly on his eyes, impatient to hear an answer from him.

When she saw that he didn't answer her, she pressed on with urgency, "Hanson, just agree to my condition, and I'll save the child immediately."

Finally, Hanson moved his lips. "The title of Mrs. Luke will belong to Vania forever."


His reply completely shattered Melanie's heart, and maybe because she had died from the heartbreak, she chortled loudly instead after hearing it. "Vania, I'm truly envious of you, but it's such a shame that the man who loves you so much is unwilling to save the child you had with another man."

Melanie deliberately emphasized the words 'the child you had with another man' as she loved to use the incident back then to infuriate Vania, but this tactic didn't seem to affect them one bit.

Therefore, she couldn't help but tighten her jaw at the composed expression on their faces. "Looks like there's nothing else we can talk about, so let me go quickly. If you regret it in the future, you can beg me, and maybe I'll give you another chance again. However, my terms will be the same."

Melanie assumed there was no antidote for this poison, so she thought they would look for her again sooner or later.

She didn't expect Vania to snicker mockingly in reply. "I don't think that you alone are capable of getting the drug from the laboratory. Who's the mastermind behind it?"

This was a direct ridicule of Melanie's capabilities, and she was so mad that her face twisted into a nasty scowl as she said, "No matter what, your son's life is in my hands. If you make me unhappy, I'll never give you the antidote."

"Do you really think that I can only get the antidote from you?" Vania said haughtily. "I'm the one giving you a chance now. Your threats have no effects on me."

Her words and expression instantly threw Melanie into a fluster. "That's impossible because this poison has no antidote." Immediately, she realized that she had said too much and quickly changed her saying. "Only I know what it is."

All of a sudden, Vania and Hanson's eyes dimmed. Even though they already knew that they couldn't find out much from Melanie, they still wasted so much time on her because they wanted to find any slight trace or hints from her, and it seemed like they got something now.

Hanson narrowed his eyes. "You better think it over carefully whether you're going to hand over the antidote and reveal the person behind this."

Melanie was frightened by the menacing look in his eyes as she knew just how terrifying Hanson could be, and if she fell into his hands, she would live a life worse than death itself.

"I don't know anything," she denied. "Even if you keep me locked up here, I still don't know anything."

Compared to her cocky and superior persona earlier, the way she was so spooked now was such a huge difference that it seemed ridiculous.
