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?”

“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.
