Chapter 213 She’s in Navelie
The plane flying in the sky at an altitude of thirty thousand feet was bathed in a magnificent glow above the clouds, creating an enchanting view.
Seated in this very spot, Stanley and Melinda had once enjoyed the same beautiful view side by side.
As the man’s deep eyes gazed out the window, a cold wave of emotion washed over his chest.
Melinda’s voice, as melodious as silver bells, seemed to linger in his ears…
“Mhm. Your mother really enjoys my cooking. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“I just wanted to test my cooking skills. Okay, I was trying to please her. She even had two helpings!“
“Stanley, please stop arguing with your mother. She must have been through a lot these years. She doesn’t have someone who can truly understand her.”
But Melinda, who understood you all these years? For you to raise two children all by yourself, you must have endured a lot of hardships and received many judgmental looks.
Every time Stanley thought about this, it hurt him like there was a knife in his heart.
He vowed to find her and protect her for the rest of his life!
In Repulse Bay, a phone call came in for Jennifer. The person on the other end of the line told her, “Madam, Mr. Fox has gone to Navelie. He changed his schedule for the next two weeks.”
Jennifer’s expression fell while she held her phone.
Is he not coming back if he can’t find Melinda? He is leaving just like that because of that woman! He shows no rationality or sense of responsibility even though he is the leader of the prestigious For Group! My son will be completely ruined if this love continues!
At that moment, Jennifer’s hatred for Melinda grew even stronger, and she made up her mind.
When Stanley returned to Riverdale, she would arrange for Monica to conceive his child.
Jennifer understood her son well. As someone who cared a lot about the Fox Family’s reputation, he wouldn’t shirk his responsibilities.
On the other end, Monica lay in the hospital after undergoing a series of examinations. The pain was unbearable; it was something she had never experienced in her life.
Stanley’s forceful blow to her abdomen had caused severe damage to her novelxo.com fast updatespleen and stomach.
Since there was also internal bleeding, she was required to be hospitalized for observation and treatment. She only felt some relief after she took a double dose of painkillers.
“Doctor, will it affect my ability to conceive in the future?” This was her greatest concern at the moment.
“It’s highly unlikely,” the doctor replied. “Please focus on your recovery first. We’ll clear the congestion and stop the bleeding before we assess further.”
“When can I be discharged?” She wanted to get better as soon as possible because there was no hope for an injured person.
The doctor sighed. “Your condition is neither minor nor severe. Don’t worry. Just stay for another week before we decide what’s our next step.”
Even though every second felt like an eternity, Monica had no choice but to comply with the doctor’s orders.
“Miss Keller, how did you get hurt?” Lydia was completely puzzled.
But how was Monica supposed to tell her the truth? She had her pride to take care of, after all!
In the company, Max took on half of the responsibilities of the Fox Group. He was so busy handling all sorts of matters that he even started feeling disoriented.
The bustling night scenery of Navelie dazzled the eyes of passersby.
Inside that familiar upscale restaurant, a woman in a blue dress sat by the same window, quietly cutting into her steak as she tuned out all the surrounding noise.
It felt as if he was still sitting across from her.
Melinda had been dining here for the past couple of days. She had friends in Navelic, but she didn’t contact any of them. Since she boarded the plane, she hadn’t uttered a word, not even to the waitstaff.
She wore earphones and listened to the messages in Chloe’s voicemail.
“Melinda, where are you? Why did you leave without saying a word? Please come back, hmm? The children and I need you.”
“What exactly happened? Let’s face it together, alright?”
“I’m sorry. I failed to protect you.”
“Please come back… I can’t live without you… We promised to be together!”
Melinda had listened to these messages dozens of times. Each time, her state of mind would be different.
