I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 282 The Man in the Room

The ending of a banquet was the start of another with a different reason.

Melanie was getting tired of it, and for some reason Cyrus and Jeffrey weren’t with her.

Joseph told his men to take her to a room for some rest and prepared several sets of outfit for her to change

into, but she wasn’t that happy and simply went downstairs after fixing her makeup.

The York’s old butler bent over while he was pushing Joseph’s wheelchair and said, “Sir, everything’s ready. Later, Miss Melanie will personally thank Leo. Leo will then take her to the next building. The atmosphere will

be just nice.”

Joseph’s lips formed a wry smile as he ordered, “Keep an eye on Jeffrey.”

“He’s not here. Something seemed to have happened and he left the island to deal with it,” the butler said.

Joseph nodded. “Then keep an eye on that dock and don’t let him return!”

“Understood!”

Melanie went downstairs and chatted for a while, and looked around. She then asked one of the servants,” Where’s your young master? Why don’t I see him?” She wanted to say her farewells early and thank Leo in

person.

“You must mean Master Leo? He’s next door.” the servant pointed her the way.

Melanie wanted to walk to the other side by lifting her skirt a little. Suddenly, a servant ran in from outside.

Melanie realized almost instantly that he was one of Cyrus’s servants that came here with them.

“Miss Melanie!”

The servant called out to Melanie and said. “Master Cyrus isn’t doing well. Do you want to come and take a

look?”

“What’s happening? Is it serious? Where is he right now?” Melanie asked nervously.
