    She had checked out and was nning to leave Navelie, but her stomach was indeed ufortable.


    “Come with me, Mervin said without waiting for her response, taking her arm and leading her forward


    when he saw a white Maserati pull up. With his other hand, he opened the car door. “Get in. To the


    hotel


    first.


    With that, Melinda got into the car with him because her stomach was really hurting.


    “Isn’t this Mrs. Fox, boss?” Altair, who was in the driver’s seat, nced over and waved, smiling. “Hello,


    Mrs. Fox!”


    “Hi,” Melinda replied with an awkward chuckle.


    “Go back to the hotel and book another room,” Mervin instructed Altair, then turned to Melinda and


    asked, “Are you sure you don’t need to go to the hospital?”


    “I really don’t need to. The young woman leaned back in her seat, cing her recovered bag on her


    lap. She changed the topic and asked, “Howe you’re in Navelie? Have you just arrived?”


    “Yeah, I just got off the ne,” he answered. The guys are participating in a cybersecuritypetition,


    and I came to give them some guidance.”


    “Have you wrapped up your scenes?”


    “Not yet, but taking a break for a couple of days won’t hurt.” He smirked, still carrying that confident and


    unruffled demeanor.


    After arriving at the hotel, Mervin took her inside, got her a room, and kindly escorted her upstairs.


    After settling her down, he asked in return, “What about you? Why are you alone? Where is


    he?”novelxo fast update


    Melinda met his gaze, unsure of how to answer. She pursed her lips.


    “Have you to fallen out?” Mervin asked, observing her expression. “Just my guess.”


    “Not really.” Melinda sighed under her breath, turning to walk toward the floor-to-ceiling window. “Are


    you all staying in this hotel too?”


    “Yeah.”


    “Thank you for today.” Melinda paused and looked back at him sincerely.


    “Don’t mention it.” Mervin smiled and reminded. The criminals in Navelie are dangerous. They’re


    usually desperate characters. Don’t risk your life chasing after them. Even if you catch up, you might


    end up losing your life. Money and possessions are just external things. I had a buddy who died like


    that.”


    His words freaked her out.


    “Really, I’m not lying to you!” Mervin spoke like an elder. “Got it? Don’t chase after them next time!”


    Intimidated by his aura, she quickly nodded. “Got it.” However, the things in her bag couldn’t be bought


    Tll go and check on the guys,” he said with his hands in his pockets. “Thepetition’s in two days.


    Call me if anything. You should rest for now.”


    “Alright.”


    After seeing Mervin away, Melinda withdrew her smile and let out a weary sigh while casually putting


    her bag away. The pain in her stomach was bing more pronounced by the second.


    She poured a ss of warm water and drank it, then took off her shoes andy on the bed for a while.


    On the helicopter flying to Navelic, Jennifer cried until she had no strength left. If she could, she would


    willingly exchange her life for her son’s.


    Regret overwhelmed her. Maybe it was my insistence that harmed Stan. If I hadn’t been involved in his


    marriage. if I hadn’t interfered with his choices, maybe he wouldn’t have been in a car ident….


    Or perhaps, if Melinda hadn’t entered his world, he wouldn’t be lying in the emergency room.


    s, that was human nature; no one would ever admit to their own faults.


    Monica had be numb from the pain at this point, both physically and emotionally. She had one


    thought in her mind-if Stanley died, she wouldn’t want to live either.


    Her whole life, Stanley had been her everything, and he was her sole motivation to keep living.


    Back in the hotel room in Navelie, Melinday t on the bed, covered with a thinforter. The pain in


    her stomach was getting more intense, causing her to furrow her brows.


    Despite being a doctor, she couldn’t tell what was wrong.


    She hadn’t eaten anything bad, and even if she had, it wouldn’t cause this kind of pain! It wasn’t due to


    her menstrual cycle either, for it wasn’t the right time.


    Shey there, thinking that maybe a nap would make it better.


    “Are you asleep?” Suddenly, the door swung open, and Mervin entered the room without knocking.
