Melissa couldn't believe her ears. Her lips parted slightly as she stared blankly and asked. “Did Kelvin say that
himself?”
Uram smiled at her. “Yes,”
Seeing Melissa's shocked expression, Uram felt nothing but satisfaction.
Melissa couldn't accept it. She stared at him for a few seconds, as if his smile had only made things worse.
“I don’t believe it!” She pushed down her panic, keeping her voice sharp. “I want to hear it from him in person. |
need to see
him!
Uram stayed calm. “He doesn’t have time. Ms. Baker, it’s better if you leave on your own. That would be much
more dignified.”
Just then, a phone rang.
Melissa suddenly cback to her senses. She took out her phone from her bag and placed it by her ear.
A man’s anxious voice cthrough. “The driver said our son was taken away at the neighborhood gate. What's
going on?” Hearing this. Melissa's face instantly turned pale. Her hands trembled as she lowered the phone.
The person on the other end kept calling her name, but she couldn’t hear a thing.
She looked up at Uram’s smiling face as if she had been struck by lightning.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Baker, he said calmly. “Your little boy has simply gone abroad ahead of you and is waiting
there. Then, with a deliberate pause, he added, “But if you're late, he might be bullied over there.”
Melissa clenched her fists by her sides, her body trembling uncontrollably.
“Letsee him.” Her voice was strained, barely holding back the storm of emotions
Uram was about to refuse when he saw her pull a crystal hair clip from her bag, turning its sharp edge toward
her own neck. Her voice was icy, her pale face twisted with desperation, and her eyes were filled with madness
as she said, “I'll say it one more time. Letsee him. Or I'll die right here in front of you!”
Uram felt helpless. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath., thinking. ‘She’s at it again with her craziness!
Uram pulled out his phone and called Kelvin. After hanging up, he looked at the frantic Melissa, suddenly finding
no amusement in the situation.
“Let's go. Ms. Baker. I'll take you to him.”
Getting what she wanted, Melissa still didn’t lower the sharp object in her hand. She remained on high alert the
entire car ride, only relaxing slightly when they arrived at Serenity Hospital's parking lot.
Stepping out of the car, she gazed at the hospital building, shrouded in the dim evening light. Her eyes, once
filled with madness, cleared just a little
“Is Charles in the hospital?”
Uram locked the car, grabbed the keys, and led her inside. Hearing her question, he let out a mocking chuckle,
his tone dripping with sargasini.

Chapter 76
“Ms. Baker, have you hurt so many people that you've lost track? The one lying in this hospital isn’t him. It's Mr.
Adler's daughter.”
Melissa's eves flashed with doubt and hesitation.
She had targeted Charles that day, but she never even touched the little girl.
Something wasn’t right. If Charles hadn't cto the hospital, it meant he wasn’t injured.
She wondered why Kelvin was taking this so seriously.
Melissa asked a few more questions, but Uram didn’t seem to hear a thing. Frustrated, she finally gave up and
fell silent. Uram led her to an empty ward. The moment he opened the door, she almost thought she had walked
into a hotel suite.
She looked at the man standing by the window and paused for a moment before walking in.
Uram closed the door and followed behind her.
Melissa glanced at him and frowned. I'm here to talk to Kelvin. Who told you to cin?”
Uram acted as if he didn’t hear a word, ignoring her completely.
He simply jogged over to Kelvin’s side and stood there dutifully.
He held a small black device in his hand, adjusted it briefly, and then clipped it to his chest.
It was better to record everything, just in case she decided to spread lies later.
Kelvin sat down with his back to the large window, crossing his legs as he fixed his gaze on her.
He did not say anything. He was used to waiting for the other party to speak first. However, his dark eyes
seemed to look past Melissa, as if seeing someone else through her.
Melissa couldn't hold back her anger. “Kelvin, nothing happened to Charles! What gives you the right to send me
overseas?” Kelvin leaned back, staring at her. The warmth in his eyes from that afternoon when he looked at
Yvonne was gone. Now, they were cold, distant, and unapproachable.
“I don’t have to explain my decision to you.” His voice was cold, and his deep eyes were colder than the night.
“If not for your status, you wouldn't even be qualified to sit here and talk to me?”
Melissa held her breath, her expression changed drastically because of his cold attitude.
“Fine. I'm not qualified” Her expression darkened. She grabbed the hair clip in her hand and pressed it against
her neck again, looking at him with a fake smile.
She used so much force that the sharp tip left a red mark on her skin.
“Giveback my son, and I'll apologize to Charles. | swear I'll never lay a hand on your child again. Otherwise,
neither of us will have peace!
Melissa's face was tense, her expression twisted with desperation.
Kelvin stared at lier, his dark eyes shadowed in the dim light.
“I didn’t want to use this method,” he said, his voice calm yet chilling. “But all | need is an intact corpse.”
Hearing this, Melissa suddenly shivered. She looked at the refined and handsface in front of her, and her
mind buzzed

The hairpin she had been using as a threat slipped from her fingers at spoint, hitting the floor with a sharp
clack that echoed through the silent room
Uram walked over and kicked it far away.
Melissa did not notice. She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief, her voice trembling. “You... you want to
kill me?”
“I don’t.” Kelvin said coldly. “So do as you're told. Leave the country and never appear in front ofagain.”
He said the sline.
For the first time. Melissa felt that he was like a stranger. The endless patience he once had for her now seemed
like nothing
more than an illusion.
A cold chill spread through her body as if she had been doused in ice water. She didn’t need a mirror to know
how pathetic she must look right now.
“Kelvin, you can’t do this to me. On our wedding day, you said you wouldn't letdown for the rest of your life.
You even
swore...
Kelvin didn’t bother listening to the rest. He cut her off, his dark eyes shifting slightly, filled with an almost
overwhelming disgust. Though the dim light hid his face, the impatience in his voice was clear.
“Did | say those words to you?”
Melissa's face turned even paler as she stared at him in fear.
At this moment, she realized that she might really be finished.
Melissa thought about her properties in Strate City; her husband’s company that had just started to grow, and
her many
investiments...
Leaving Strate City meant she would have to live under Kelvin’s watch.
By then, her carefree life as a rich wife would be gone forever.
Her husband would resent her, and when her son grew up, he would see her as an

Melissa's body trembled slightly as she called his name, her voice hoarse. Her attitude finally softened, and there
was a hint of pleading in her eyes.
“Kevin, | know | was wrong. As long as you letstay in Strate City, I'll do whatever you want.”
The implication in her words was clear, making Uram regret coming in.
There was a long silence.
Since the room was too dimly lit, Melissa couldn’t see his expression.
She did not know that Kelvin was looking at her with Leven more disgust.
Just as she nervously took a step closer to him, a voice, dripping with hostility and enough to send chills down

Melissa froze on the spot, her face turning utterly grim.
At that moment, she heard Kelvin speak again. This time, addressing Uram..

Uram was confused, but he still did as he was told.

Melissa's face lit up with joy. Just as she was about to thank the man in the shadows, his next words froze her in
place.
“If you hurt yourself just to spite me. I'll carve the swound onto your son.”
“Kelvin” Melissa’s breath caught in her throat. Just imagining that scene made her shiver in fear.
That was the son she had given birth to with the man she loved.
“He’s only six!” Her voice was hoarse and sharp as she demanded, “Why are you targeting my son? Give him
back to me!”
“Remember what I said. Kelvin cast her a cold glance before turning to Uram.
“Send her abroad.”
Uram quickly agreed, quickly agreed. The thought of personally sending this crazy woman away filled him with
exhilaration.
He drove to the airport himself, where he encountered another group escorting Melissa's husband. After making
contact, they bundled the two of them up and tossed them onto a private jet.
