Chapter 401 Whom Do I Trust

“My dad…”

Melanie staggered, her vision darkening for a moment.

“Are you saying that my father’s death was not accidental, but a murder instead?”

Nathan neither confirmed nor denied it. “In Harbor City, who can compare to Jeffrey when it comes to manipulating the situation and covering up crimes?”

After calming down, Melanie asked, “Why are you telling me all this?”

“Perhaps I haven’t mustered the courage to move on from the pain of losing Emma. That’s why I value you so much. I don’t want you to be deceived by Jeffrey,” Nathan said solemnly.

“But I heard that you and Jeffrey were as close as brothers back then…” Melanie trailed off.

Nathan’s eyes flickered for a moment before he replied, “In the past year, we’ve had too many disagreements. Our goals and paths have diverged. Things are not as they used to be.”

“I suppose the disagreements between you two are because of me?” Melanie said calmly, poker-faced. “The relationship between the three of us is intricate and hard to unravel. Whether it’s Jeffrey or you, I hope we can coexist peacefully in the future, and minimize conflicts as much as possible.”

After saying this, she turned and left.

each other? Instead, he waited until she exposed his plot before coming forward.

The moment she got into the car, Jeffrey’s call came in.

“Did Nathan give you a hard time?” he asked right away.
