Chapter 460 Two Lives

What a joke!

Melanie glanced at Jeffrey, who was heating milk for her not far away in the kitchen. She took a deep breath and said, “Jeffrey is right beside me. Who made you accuse him again?”

“He wants to kill me! Obviously, he’s not going to do it himself!” Judas’s voice on the phone was low but twisted with fear.

“After I got out of prison, we agreed to settle our debts. I just want to live peacefully with my wife. I don’t want to kill anymore! He doesn’t believe I’ll keep his secret. He won’t let me live! His people are about to arrive. Please come and save me!”

“How can I save you?” Melanie asked, playing along.

“I know the York family values you a lot. Please ask them for help. I’m begging you. I don’t want to die! I don’t want to see my wife die either…”

Judas’s words continued, and then the call suddenly disconnected.

and fruits in front of her and instructed. “Eat while it’s hot.”
