Chapter 171


    Chapter 171 Hopelessly In Love


    Jessica adored Melinda and was one of her biggest fans. How can I stand by and watch her suffer?


    Since busines and politics are inextricably intertwined, if I want to confront Stanley as the mayor’s


    daughter, I can cause him a let of trouble.


    Melinda then grabbed Jessica’s hand and smiled. Thank you for your concern. When I got up in the


    middle of the night. I didn’t turn on the lights, so I stumbled while going to the bathroom. Most likely, I


    cked out from low blood sugar.”


    “You have low blood sugar levels, but you’re a doctor and don’t even realize it!” Now, Jessica wanted to


    lecture Melinda. “You need to take care of yourself!”


    “I know.” Melinda sighed and uttered, “I even put on the concealer today.”


    “You didn’t cover up anything, and your face is also swollen!” Jessica stated bluntly.


    After hearing this, Melinda hugged Jessica and reassured her, “All right. Don’t be mad because this


    bruise has nothing to do with Stanley. He and Monica are merely colleagues. So, don’t ruin your health


    out of rage, and take care of yourself.”


    “That was my line!” Jessica nudged her away. “You are in no position to tell me that. I’m perfectly


    healthy and don’t need extra care.”


    “I know. I’ll keep it in mind.” Melinda smiled and said, “It’s gettingte. I have to head home. Stanley will


    return home tomorrow.”


    “I also have something to do today.” Then, Jessica sighed helplessly and said. “My dad asked me to


    head home for dinner, and it’s almost dinner time.”


    Following that, they said their farewells.


    Meanwhile, Melinda took a cab back to Repulse Bay, and while sitting in the backseat, she used her


    phone to check her face. She was rmed by the swelling on the right side of her face, where a tooth


    had been knocked loose. After a while, she exited the cab and headed toward the vi.


    On the other hand, Jennifer stood by the living room window and red ovelxo fast updateily at


    Melinda as she approached the front door.


    “Madam, Melinda greeted as soon as she entered the living room.


    However, Jennifer did not respond and looked at her indifferently as if she were toozy to talk.


    After that, Melinda headed straight for the stairs. Nevertheless, she could not help but recall the photos.


    she had seen on the massive LED screen at the mall earlier that day. She felt conflicted upon seeing


    that butter realized it was likely envy and jealousy. Despite this, she could keep a level head in


    Jessica’spany, but when she was alone with her thoughts, her emotions would make themselves


    known because, after all, she was a woman. She eventually concluded that, at least in Stanley’s eye,


    Monica was irreceable.


    After wiping away her makeup, Melinda smeared some medicinal cream on her swollen face. She then


    headed into theb to research his cure.


    At that moment, Jennifer lounged on the couch as Stephanie kneeled to apply medicinal cream to her


    arm. After removing the glove, she observed that Jennifer’s right arm had visibly recovered. “Madam.”


    With an unexpected surge of confidence, Stephanie suggested, “Why don’t we put some on your face?


    Otherwise, the bruise might worsen in a few days


    After hearing this, Jennifer was astonished to discover that every square inch of skin on her arm had


    recovered. She couldn’t believe she had been living with the wound for 11 years and that Melinda’s


    efforts. had resulted in some improvement.


    Meanwhile, at the castle estate of Navelic, Edward personally escorted thest guest to their car, and


    the banquet ended.

    It waste, and some maids had alreadypleted their duties and clocked off, but Monica was still


    wearing her beautiful gown and sitting by the pool. With a ss of red wine in one hand, she gazed at


    the rippling reflection of the moon in the swimming pool as another jolt of agony coursed through her.


    She felt the pain spread gradually from her heart to her veins.


    Then, with her head tilted back, she chugged the entire ss of wine to be inebriated and


    temporarily forget Stanley. As her gaze wandered, she saw him walking to his car, and a moment of


    perplexity crossed her face. Where is he going at this hour of the night? As the car drove out of sight,


    her disappointment and pain flooded back in.


    I can’t let Melinda cure Miss Fox, or else all hope of getting together with Stanley will be lost. When it


    comes to love, people always lose their sense of rationality and go insane because of the power of


    love. So, can something obtained through deception and scheme be considered love? Monica was at a


    loss for words at the thought, knowing that she couldn’t bear to be without Stanley because she


    depended on him so much and loved him so desperately.


    Meanwhile, he had gone out at that time to shop for his wife’s present, something he had put off doing


    until the kids were in bed. As he strolled through the streets of Naveliete at night, he took in the


    dazzling disys of light and bustling activity.


    The following morning at about 5.00AM, the sky had begun to take on a hazy hue of blue and white.


    Suddenly, Monica was startled awake by the doorbell’s frantic ringing. “Who is it?” she asked groggily


    as she stumbled to open the door.
