I Became His Sweetheart

Chapter 479 Save Them

“We have instructions to protect both her and the baby!” the chief yelled fiercely at the doctor.” “Her heart isn’t in a good condition. If we forcefully keep the baby, we might lose her instead... the doctor said, clearly in a difficult spot.

The masked man next to him started to panic, and asked anxiously. “Chief, what should we do?” “We've b

“We've been told that the key is her heart. The priority is to protect the woman, then the baby!” the chief eventually said.

The baby...

Melanie’s heart pounded hard in her chest before she went out cold.

Jeffrey took a flight to attend an important finance meeting. After the meeting ended, he hopped on another flight back to Medonia almost immediately. He promised her that he would be back tonight.

But when his plane landed, he received a call from a bodyguard from Morgan Group that the island where the research base was located caught fire. A group of armed men had abducted them all amidst the chaos.

Jeffrey's breath caught in his chest as the image of a heavily pregnant Melanie running for her life flashed past his mind. He asked in a panic, “Where is Melanie?”

“Mrs. Morgan has been abducted too...

The bodyguard himself was injured too, and he gritted his teeth in pain through his reply to Jeffrey, “I’ve informed the rest of the team to chase after them in a boat-

Jeffrey ended the call, a vicious look in his eyes as he instructed William to speed up on the road. One hour later, they reached the island dock.

The sky was dark.

When Jeffrey rushed to the island, the fire had been put down, but all the vegetation around had been burnt to ashes. The place looked just like doomsday had fallen.

One of the bodyguards from Morgan Group rushed over to report about the situation. “President, the masked men’s weapons and combat ability were very sophisticated. They have +15 BONOS

conceal all their signals. We couldn't track them down yet.”

“The map!” Jeffrey stretched his arm out, and William immediately handed him the map.

He unfolded it, and glanced through it quickly.

“We found signs of the boat’s departure at this exit. After making some comparisons, we figured it’s probably the abductors’ boat and not the boat we always use.” Jeffrey’s subordinate said,

pointing at the west side of the island and said.

“They set off in the west-

Jeffrey analyzed the situation through narrowed eyes. “They want to leave the country.” “To Delfino?” William asked.

Jeffrey didn’t answer him, but instead said, “Get in a boat and chase after them right away! Contact Delfino’s sea customs. | know the director general. Ask them to stop all boats departing

their harbor!”

“Yes, sir!” William immediately rushed off to make arrangements.

Jeffrey sat in Morgan Group’s boat and soon after, received a call from Nathan. “Jeffrey Morgan, where are you right now?” Nathan chuckled darkly.

“Did you abduct her?” Jeffrey cut straight to the chase.

“Her?” Nathan feigned ignorance.

Melanie was abducted, and Jeffrey couldn’t remain as calm and composed as he usually was. He said with panic that he couldn’t suppress, “Don’t think that I’m clueless about an armed force you've been training in secret to do your every bidding! | know the base of the armed force is located right in Delfino!”

“That’s right.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

To Jeffrey's surprise, Nathan admitted it.

“| know you have great influence in Delfino. Since you suspect me, you'll surely stop me at the sea customs, right?”

“Good that you know. Release them right away!” Jeffrey bellowed.

“Don’t worry, | won’t touch your woman. I'll return her to you, but I’m taking everyone else away!” Nathan started negotiating the terms. “But | won't return her to you for free. Allow Delfino’s sea

+15 BONOS “Why should 17”

“Because your wile and baby’s lives are in my hands!” Nathan sald viciously. “If it weren't for me. your baby would’ve been dead a long time agol If you keep bargaining with me, | might just lose my patience and kill them!”

The thought of Melanie being in bad shape made Jeffrey's heart constrict. He clenched his fists.

“| can let the sea customs let you go, but | must first see Melanie and make sure she’s fine. That is my bottom line!” Jeffrey said, tying his best to calm down and negotiate for as much as he

could.

“I'll wait for you for two hours. You’d better hurry up! And remember, you must come alone. Bring one more person with you, and I'l kill one person here!”

Nathan hung up after shrieking.

Jeffrey's brows knitted. “Prepare the boat. I'll go by myself.” “President, you shouldn't.”

William tried to stop him.

“It's too dangerous. The moment Nathan drives his boat and takes you away from the harbor, we won't be able to act fast and make arrangements in Delfino to guarantee your safety. How am | going to explain things to Mrs. Morgan and everyone in Morgan Group If anything untoward happens to you?” William said anxiously.

“You have no need to explain anything. This is my decision.” Jeffrey's eyes dimmed as he looked at William putting together a team of bodyguards who would. follow him to save those who were abducted.

He said darkly, “I can go alone. One more person might add to the chaos. Since Delfino is too big and difficult to make arrangements in, I'll stay at the sea customs. | won't let him take them away

from there.”

William understood what Jeffrey meant, and instructed his men to prepare guns and a micro bugging device to be attached to Jeffrey.

“The guns will be confiscated. And do you really think Nathan won't notice these things?”

Jeffrey refused to have the bugging device, and simply chose a tiny weapon among the collection William prepared.

As long as you make the necessary arrangements at the sea customs, |’ll think of a way to update you. Just wait patiently.”

With that. Jeffrey strode off and swiftly hopped onto the speedboat.
