Chapter 70: Melanda Goes to See Jeffery
Only one thing was certain: Selina must be involved in this. Was Selina Jenny? But she was clearly not Jenny, so what was her relationship with Jenny?
Mike felt baffled. He hoped the truth would be out soon.
The next morning, Mike drove Melanda to M Company to see Jeffrey, as promised.
In the car, Melanda said to Mike apologetically, “Honey, I should go to the police station with you at this time. but I’ve already promised Jeffrey, so it’s inappropriate to change the time at the last minute. Fortunately, it’s only an hour. I’ll meet you at the police station immediately after it’s over.”
Mike said, “It’s okay, honey. We’ll all be there. I’ll take care of Mandy. You, on the other hand, have to be careful. Jeffrey didn’t cause any trouble after the last incident, and the police said they didn’t find anything, but I still feel worried.”
Melanda smiled. “You’re still the same as when you were young. You feel uneasy whenever a man comes near me.”
Mike smiled sheepishly. “Maybe. I hope I’m worrying too much. I put a spare phone in your bag for safety purposes. I’m the only contact on that phone.”
“Okay, I’ll remember,” Melanda replied.
Jeffrey was already waiting when they got to the meeting place.
Mike came down and greeted him. “Why are you guys meeting here instead of the office or the construction site. ”
“Hello, Mike. I didn’t expect you, Melanda’s superior, to personally send Miss Melanda off,” Jeffrey teased. “In order to shorten the work time, I want to pick Miss Melanda up here and set off together. ”
Mike looked at him and said word for word, “I’m not Melanda’s superior. Melanda is my fiancée. We’re engaged.”
Jeffrey raised his eyebrows. “Oh, is that so? Congratulations.”
“So, you have to be good to my fiancée,” Mike said as he shook Jeffrey’s hand.
Jeffrey smiled. “Of course. I’ll get her back to you unharmed.”
“You better,” Mike said bluntly. Then he turned around and hugged Melanda before leaving.
Jeffrey faced Melanda and said, “Long time no see, Miss Melanda. How are you recovering? Please get in the car.”
Melanda said as she got into the car, “Thank you for your concern. I’m fine now.”
Sitting in the back seat, Melanda folded her hands and kept looking out the window. She was still more or less nervous, but Jeffrey seemed to be focused on driving and nothing was wrong.
The car quickly hit the highway and sped forward.
“I wonder how things are going at the police station,” Melanda thought worriedly.
On the other hand, Mike quickly arrived at Mandy’s house. He picked up Mandy and her parents and headed to the police station together.
Shortly after they arrived, they saw Dave and a man being led into the interrogation room by the police.
That man should be the lawyer Dave had mentioned. Dave glanced at him. He nodded at Dave.
Mandy had dark circles under her eyes, and it was obvious that she hadn’t slept well last night. Her hands kept fiddling with the corners of her clothes, and her parents looked restless.
The detective entered the interrogation room and sat down with the officer in charge of the interrogation.
“Are you ready, Mr. Dave?” the officer asked.
Dave nodded.
“You know, I grew up in an orphanage. After I went to middle school, the expenses increased. At that time, I started to receive funding from someone. That person was Jenny’s father.”
Mike and Mandy’s eyes widened.
“He sponsored me for six years until I got into university and started working. Then, I had the ability to support myself. I was very grateful to him, and because of that, I interacted with his family quite often.”
“Something happened to his family when I was in my freshman year. Jenny suddenly got depression for some reason, so she couldn’t go to college. Later, I found out it was because she broke up with her boyfriend and was attacked by people on the Internet.’
“At that time, her brother was already in jail for manslaughter, so Jenny’s parents became very sad, and I often went to accompany them. Jenny was later sent to a mental hospital.”
Mike and Mandy already knew what he was saying, so they weren’t surprised.
They eagerly waited for him to continue..
