Melinda President Fox’s Love

Chapter 199

Chapter 199 Do You Admit to Doing That?

Hobson disposed of Melinda’s boarding information and confirmed that she successfully boarded the plane to Navelie.

Jennifer sat on the courtyard couch in front of the vintage villa in Repulse Bay, attentively listening to his report while watching the video he had handed over. The screen displayed the recently captured footage with remarkable clarity in visuals and the recorded conversation.

She was overcome with a mixture of disbelief, shock, and profound sadness as she watched the footage. It felt as if she had been plunged into a frigid abyss.

Holding the phone, she remained dazed.

Hobson stood by her side, and after what seemed like an eternity, he finally broke the silence. “Miss Fox. Monica had malicious intentions toward you. If your condition had worsened, Melinda would’ve been held responsible. Monica took a risk by tampering with the medication to win over Mr. Fox.”

Jennifer could not believe it.

He asked, “Don’t you want to think twice about keeping someone who resorts to such unscrupulous methods around?”

This question undoubtedly struck her conscience. Her eyes flickered with a mix of panic and astonishment. She clenched her teeth and raised her gaze, handing the phone back to him. After a moment, she instructed him, “You can leave now. I need some time alone.”

He sighed lightly and left.

Jennifer sat on the couch, struggling to accept the harsh reality. She realized her recovery had relied on a stroke of luck, which could have easily been undone. Monica used me as a pawn! I can’t believe her obsession with Stanley blinds her to everything else. Her love is irrational.

Contemplating the situation calmly, she realized she was caught in a dilemma. Monica had been under her care and had demonstrated exceptional skills in various areas. Her diligence and discipline were particularly noteworthy.

She pondered, wondering if perhaps Monica had simply made a momentary mistake.

In the vice president’s office of the Fox Group about an hour later, Monica entered after a meeting when her phone suddenly rang. Glancing at the caller ID, she swiftly answered, “Miss Fox.”

“Come back now.” Jennifer’s tone was indifferent.novelxo.com fast update

Monica could not sense the caller’s emotions. “I… Alright.” In reality, she had two pressing matters demanding her attention.

“Lydia, please take these two documents to Mr. Vance on my behalf.” She added, “I need to step out for a while, but I’ll return shortly.”

During the journey to Repulse Bay in the red Bentley, Monica repeatedly reflected on Jennifer’s tone from earlier. Why is she so eager for my return?

She mulled numerous possibilities while an unsettling feeling gripped her heart. When the car stopped in the courtyard, she also steadied her mind. I’ll just face whatever lies ahead and adjust accordingly.

After all, she had spent years navigating the business world. Dealing with various circumstances had become second nature to her.

As Monica stepped out of the car, her gaze immediately fell upon the middle-aged woman sitting on the outdoor couch not far away. She gently closed the car door and walked toward her.

Jennifer’s stern gaze landed on Monica’s face, indicating that Monica was uninvited to sit down this time. She stood before Jennifer with a smile. “Miss Fox, is there something you need from me?”

Jennifer stared at her without answering her question. Her silence caused Monica to feel a tinge of anxiety, and her smile froze.

“Did I do something wrong?” Monica cautiously inquired, “Are you mad at me?”

Jennifer’s gaze intensified as she lifted the teacup, her voice lowering into an intimidating tone. Think for yourself. Is there anything that I should be mad at you for?”

Startled, Monica maintained a calm expression. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Seven years ago, you drugged Stanley at a charity banquet, which resulted in Melinda spending the night with him. Do you regret your actions?”

Speechless, she met Jennifer’s gaze with astonishment.

Simultaneously, Stephanie, who came to deliver snacks, froze and stood rigidly beside the tall potted plants.

“Do you admit to doing that?” Jennifer asked again.

Monica was aware that she must have gathered substantial evidence, as she would not be so confident otherwise. Therefore, she had to admit it, even if it meant steeling herself.
