Chapter 74 Things That Don’t Belong to You
The realization hit Melanie hard. Hanson did not come to see her; instead, he was here to interrogate her. Even though her heart was pounding, she was able to keep a straight face. After all, she had help this time, and there was no way it could be traced back to her.
When he saw Melanie falling into a daze, Hanson added sarcastically, “Do you still remember what I told you five years ago?”
Melanie’s heart dropped the moment she heard the words ‘five years ago’. Something happened that year that she had to take with her to the grave.
Her eyes darted around wildly out of fear that she might let something slip in front of Hanson. Then, she carefully said, “I remember.”
That was the first time she had met Hanson. She had fallen in love with him at first sight and committed everything he said to memory. That day, she carried the children in her arms and came to Luke Estate to tell him about what happened that night. Truth be told, she was just trying her luck. If Hanson decided to ignore what she said, then there was nothing she could do. To her surprise, Hanson ran a DNA test on the children and decided to keep them and her as well.
At the time, she was on cloud nine since it was every woman’s dream to be with such a man. However, despite her joy, she could still hear his chilling words ringing in her ears.
He had once told her not to get greedy and start yearning for things that didn’t belong to her.
Every single word of warning that he ever told her was still fresh in her memory. As they began to flit across her mind, all her happiness and surprise at seeing Hanson had vanished instantly. Instead, she was now filled with dread.
Hanson had a terrifying look in his eyes. “You do remember.” He raised his hands and gave a clap.
Immediately, a group of men in black suits rushed in. They began to drag all of Melanie’s things into a truck.
Melanie was scared out of her wits, and her tears could not stop flowing.
These had to be Hanson’s men, or else they would not dare to make such a ruckus here. Melanie wanted to stop them, but she was just one woman, and she could not block them all. They even shoved her until she fell at Hanson’s feet.
She wept and pleaded, “Hanson, must you do this?”
Hanson retorted coldly, “From now on, you’re no longer Morales and Morgan’s mother. Go back to wherever you came from, and don’t ever let me see you again.”
Melanie kept shaking her head as she grabbed his pants and cried, “Hanson, don’t do this. I thought we agreed that you’d give me one more chance? You have to tell me what happened and give me a chance to explain myself. Also, Morales and Morgan are still so young. How are you going to explain this to them? Are you really willing to do this to them?”
He kicked her aside and declared, “You’re the worst thing that has ever happened to them. Removing you from their lives is the best thing I can do for them. You don’t need to care about anything else. As for your explanations, I’m tired of listening to them. The fact that you sent someone to crash into Vania’s car is enough to send you to prison for life. The only reason you’re able to return to your family in one piece is because you gave birth to Morales and Morgan.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked off without even looking at her.
Melanie tried to chase after him as she cried out, “Hanson, don’t go. You have to let me explain. It’s not like that! It must be a misunderstanding! Hanson, I beg you! Please listen to me. Don’t ask me to leave, and I don’t want to leave you. I really love you. Hanson…”
