Billionaire's Beloved Wife

"Chase, don't let him get away!"Melissa Ernest dragged her suitcase down the street, drenched in the heavy rain. Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps came from behind, and a group of burly men in black rushed towards her. She only breathed a sigh of relief when they ran past, but as she turned, a dark figure startled her."Ahh—" Melissa Ernest's eyes widened instantly, her heart racing!Just as she screamed, a hand with a metallic scent of blood clamped over her mouth. A low, raspy voice hissed in her ear, "Don't make a sound, get inside!"Melissa Ernest was paralyzed with fear, unable to move. The man behind her, running out of patience, urged her again, "Hurry up!"Melissa Ernest nodded, not daring to defy the criminal, fearing his wrath. Her mind was clear, but her feet felt glued to the ground, unable to take a step.Seeing this, the man cursed under his breath and scooped her up like a chick, tucking her under his arm. In the next second, he roughly pushed her into the

Thus, Melissa Ernest would work part-time at the Imperial Kitchen during the day and write on her computer at night. She had always been a novelist.Although the Yun family was considered a prominent household before its decline, Yun's parents had always instilled good values in her, so even though they were not short of money to provide for her, she almost entirely used her living expenses to support the orphanage. The costs of her education and living were mostly covered by the income from her writing, and her novels were very popular among readers.Just as she was about to start writing, her phone rang. Picking it up, she saw an unknown number, shook her head, and was about to put the phone down, thinking it might be a spam call. But then the ringing stopped.A few seconds later, the phone rang again. After some thought, considering it might be someone she knew, she answered."Hello! Are you Miss Melissa Ernest?" A male voice asked."Hello! Yes, I am. May I ask who is calling?"

After speaking, Professor walked towards Melissa Ernest. She didn't know why, but it seemed that everyone present was very respectful to this man. Instinctively, she didn't dare to argue with Frederic Howard's arrangements and just stood there, letting Professor examine her.After a thorough check, Professor frowned and then approached Frederic Howard, "I will do my best. We'll start with medication to see if we can clear the poison. The poisoning has been going on for too long, and the recent fatigue has exacerbated its spread. All she can do now is rest; she mustn't overwork herself, and her emotions must remain stable.""Alright, thank you, Professor."Once the others had left, only the two of them remained in the ward. Frederic Howard looked at Melissa Ernest, who was staring blankly from the bed: "I’ve had your father's ashes retrieved. Let me know when you want to hold the funeral. If there's anything you need, feel free to ask. By the way, my name is Frederic Howard." He hand

Mansion—"Sir, Miss Ernest says thank you and that there's no need to send anything next time," Andy reported respectfully upon his return."Hmm, you may go!"Frederic Howard turned and walked upstairs directly to his study. His phone rang, and he slid it open to answer."Something up?""Ouyang, are you alright?" Edwiin Brewster's concerned voice came through the line."I'm fine now.""I heard from Evan Hicks that you were saved by a woman?""Mm-hmm.""Is she single? Introduce her to me.""Edwiin Brewster!" Frederic Howard frowned, his displeased tone making Edwiin Brewster shiver on the other end of the call.Desperately trying to save himself, Edwiin Brewster quickly added, "Alright, alright, just kidding, don't take it seriously. She's your savior; I wouldn't dare have any inappropriate thoughts."Seeing Frederic Howard's strong reaction, Edwiin Brewster couldn't help but wonder if he had developed feelings for the woman.Just as he was about to ask, another stern warni

"It's nothing, I just feel weak all over."Melissa Ernest shook her head, her hoarse voice barely a whisper, as if sharing a secret between lovers, so soft that it barely reached Frederic Howard's ears.After a while, the doctor came in for an examination. "Everything is fine now. You can be discharged and go home to rest. Your fever has gone down; take these medications for two days, and you'll fully recover.""Thank you, Doctor." Melissa Ernest looked at the doctor with gratitude."No need to thank me. Your boyfriend was very patient, changing your cold compresses and towels for two hours straight. Otherwise, your fever wouldn't have dropped so quickly," the doctor said with a smile.The doctor's words made Melissa Ernest's face instantly flush red. She lowered her head and instinctively explained, "He's not my boyfriend."The doctor smiled and left the room without another word."Thank you. I've taken up too much of your time. If you have something to do, please go ahead. I c
