Those bodyguards were all dressed in black suits. Although they didn't wear sunglasses, they looked serious and tyrannical. They stood quietly in front of them, staring at them with burning eyes. The leader said, "Colin, madam wants you to go back. Please go back with us first!"
Only then did Melissa know that these bodyguards were sent by Mrs. Fannie. Did Mrs. Fannie not only aim at her, but also at Colin? She even planned to use brute force to deal with Colin?
Melissa glanced at Colin, but Colin just patted her hand to comfort her. Then he turned to those people and said, "I won't go back. You go back and tell her that her means are useless to me." Then he took Melissa's hand and was about to enter the house.
But those bodyguards blocked his way. The man in the lead said seriously, "Colin, your father is seriously ill. It's a very serious matter. It's related to the safety of you and madam. Please go back!"
"What can you do if I don't go back?" Colin answered defiantly.
Only then did Melissa know that Gilbert, Colin's father, was seriously ill. That was to say, everything made sense. No wonder Mrs. Fannie suddenly came to her and forced her to leave Colin. It must be the most critical time to divide up the family property! How could a woman as powerful as Mrs. Fannie see the chance of her hand flying away? Madam wouldn't lose, so she was in a hurry to drive her away so that she could force Colin to get married?
But it was too late even if Colin got married. Colin couldn't have a child with Miss Linn so soon. Then why was Mrs. Fannie so anxious?
The bodyguards' faces turned even colder. The leader said in a deep voice, "Then I have to offend you." "We are only employed by madam, and madam's order is our task. We can only attack you!"
Seeing that the bodyguards were about to come up, Melissa hurried to the front and said, "Wait, wait!" Don't mess around. Let's have a talk! "You can talk nicely and the problems could be settled!" Then she pulled Colin.
She really didn't want to see Colin fight with these people. No matter how powerful he was, he was only an ordinary people. How could he be a match for these well-trained bodyguards? Moreover, these bodyguards were only hired by Mrs. Fannie. As long as they took Colin back, they could finish their task. They would use any means to deal with him. Would Colin get hurt? They didn't care, because it was not their business. So seeing that they were about to have a conflict, Melissa quickly came up to stop them. She said to Colin, "Colin, you can go back first. Your father is sick. It must be very serious. No matter what happens to you and what will be involved in this matter, he is your father. You should go back and have a look!"
Colin was about to fight with the bodyguards with a cold face. But when he heard the dissuasion from Melissa, he could only turn around and say to her, "You don't understand this matter. The conflicts between us is not clear by explaining filial duty and responsibility. I can't go back!"
"What are you worried about?" Are you worried that they will separate me from you? Colin, I have promised you that I will never separate with you no matter what happens! "If you don't trust me, I will go back with you. Is that okay?"
Melissa was afraid that he would have a conflict with the bodyguards, and that he would irritate his mother. His mother was not a person to be trifled with, and if she insisted, Colin would only suffer losses. Melissa didn't want Colin to drive Mrs. Fannie crazy, or they would be in a more dangerous situation.
Moreover, the members of the Ling family must be itching to take action when Gilbert was ill seriously. If Colin didn't go back, the situation would be unfavorable to him. She didn't want her man to be in danger everywhere.
