I Became His Sweetheart by Bright Eyes

Chapter 478 Lose The Baby

“I can’t bear to see her like a sitting duck, either.”

Professor Turner smacked the couch, and stood up.

“I’m talking about another research base of mine, which is even more hidden and secluded than

this one. Do you understand now?”

“Pardon me, I was too anxious.”

Jeffrey’s knitted brows relaxed as he apologized to the professor.

It was rare of Jeffrey to apologize to someone else. Melanie looked at him, amazed that the savior

effect was strong enough for Jeffrey to behave like this.

“Since things have come to this point, let’s not delay things any further and move out tomorrow

morning!”

Professor Turner turned around, and pressed a button. Very soon, his research assistant

appeared. The professor relayed his instructions to prepare for the move overnight while keeping

everything a secret.

The next morning, before the sun was up, everyone in the research base started moving their

things out. They split themselves up into three groups, and the first two groups of people had

successfully moved over.

There wasn’t much equipment to move, as the other research base was sufficiently well-



equipped. That enabled them to move over without causing too much of a commotion that might draw

the attention of people keeping tabs on them.

Melanie sent Annie off, too. It had been long since Annie returned home, and she seized the

chance while they were moving out to fly back home for a few days. They agreed for Annie to come

over to keep Melanie company after they settled down in the new base.

The third group included Melanie’s mother and Yelena, who were escorted by a few bodyguards.

Melanie was in Jeffrey’s car, which was right at the back.

Everything was going smoothly so far.

The new research base was located on an island. It was surrounded by water and the location was

indeed very hidden and secluded, as the professor claimed.

Some of Jeffrey’s men and the staff members of the research base worked together to quickly prepare

the new base for operations. The professor was on high alert and made his men keep

After a day and a night passed, nothing abnormal was observed. They didn’t notice anyone suspicious

around.

Jeffrey stayed with Melanie on the island for one night. The next morning, she woke up in clearly

better spirits.

“You’re heavily pregnant right now and need lots of rest.” Jeffrey reminded her as they enjoyed their

breakfast together. “I need to leave the island to attend to something. I’ll rush back at night.”

“Go be busy and don’t shuttle to and fro like this. If you accidentally lead a foe in here, all of us weak

and vulnerable people won’t be able to stand up against him.” Melanie said with a roll of her

eyes.

“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure to eliminate all suspicious people before coming back here,” Jeffrey

promised with a smile.

Melanie kept Yelena company as she went through her treatments throughout the day.

After dinner, Melanie didn’t receive any news from Jeffrey about his return. She went upstairs and

prepared her bath.

Just then, a gunshot sounded outside the window.

She hurried to the window and lifted the curtains.

The sea was ablaze with fire!

She saw many boats docking on the shore, and people Jumping out of them. The torches they were

holding lit up the black cloths shielding their faces and the guns they were holding!

Her eyes widened in shock as she instinctively ran out of the door toward her mother’s ward. Before

she made it downstairs, power in the base was cut off and everything went dark.

Melanie quickly hugged the staircase rallings and waited till her eyes got used to the darkness before

continuing downstairs. Suddenly, a bright beam of light shone Int

her eyes, disorientating

her.



“She’s the one! Take her away!” a man behind the light source said firmly.

“Who are you guys?!”

The moment Melanie said that, two masked men appeared from behind the light source and

bound both her hands behind her back.

She struggled for a while until one of the masked men holding the torchlight warned, “Don’t waste your

energy, or you might end up hurting your baby!”

The two men brought her downstairs and out of the base.

Fire was burning outside, and she could see the three men around her. Their head and faces were

covered, and it was impossible to identify their facial features.

Very soon, someone ran over and reported the situation to the man who appeared to lead the

pack. “Chief, we found Yelena York and President Chairman Jones. That professor was with them.

too.”

“Kill them,” the chief said without hesitation.

Melanie’s heart almost leaped out of her throat as she struggled against their hold and yelled,” You

can’t kill them! Who in the world are you people?!”

“Shut her up!”



The chief furrowed his brows in annoyance as his men immediately stuffed a rolled–up handkerchief

into Melanie’s open mouth.

“Mmmph!”

Melanie protested through muffled groans as she struggled against their hold with all her might.

They wanted to kill her mother, Yelena, and the professor! Who in the world are these people?

She struggled so hard that her belly hit the ankle of one of the masked men. She immediately crouched

over in pain that was so debilitating, she broke out in cold sweat.

“Mmphoof…”

She exhaled out loud, the pain making it difficult to keep her eyes open.*

“Chief! Will she be all right?”

One of the masked men noticed her condition, and immediately reported it to the chief.

The chief masked man glanced at her, and said anxiously, “Quick, bring her onto the boat! Find a

doctor! We’ve been instructed to kill everyone else but her. She must be brought back alive!”

Melanie found herself hauled up and forcefully brought onto a boat. The handkerchief stuffed in her

mouth fell out, but she couldn’t speak because of the pain.

Very soon, a man who looked like a doctor rushed over and checked her.

“She’s not in a stable state, and she might lose the baby…”
