Chapter 705 The Feud (10) Where is Hannah?

Hannah never expected that she would come here. Perhaps Cian also didn't expect that she would be sent here by Melvin.

After Melvin left at noon yesterday, she went back to her room, thinking that it was here to wait for the final results. However, in the afternoon, she was suddenly taken away. At that time, Hannah wondered whether Melvin regretted what he had promised her or not. But after a few rounds of turnover, she arrived at the island which used to belong to Cian.

The island had been full of Melvin's men already. This island now belonged to Melvin But when signing the contract, Melvin had promised Cian three months buffer period. After all, Cian owned billions of assets here, not to mention he needed time to replace another place to live. Surprisingly, Melvin had already settled here in advance.

There was only shock when Hannah and Cian meet, but of course, both of them can not show any surprise. The only thing to know was that they were both under the control of Melvin.

Hannah had only one thought at that time, which was, Cian could not be implicated in this matter. She was very clear about how important Cian was to the royal Wells family, but what was she supposed to do to get the word out? Given the current situation, she probably wouldn't be able to get a fly out under the heavy security guard on this island.

Cian was now deliberately losing his temper in the villa, scolding Melvin's immorality. It did have the effect of relieving his feelings, but nothing had changed. Until, the next morning, when everyone was quiet and asleep, there was an unusual noise in the villa.

Both Hannah and Cian rushed out of the rooms, coming down to see that Melvin appeared in front of them.

When Hannah saw Melvin, she was quite nervous actually. She knew that Oscar had taken action already, and she also thought that Melvin would die for it. However, if Melvin were dead, she would be dead too. So she didn't quite clear whether she was excepting Melvin's coming back alive, or his death. Anyway, when she saw Melvin at the moment, her mind was filled with unspeakable complicated emotions. Melvin looked a little bit frail. He was propped up on the sofa in the hall, leaning on it and panting. He seemed in a very poor condition.

Hannah and Cian looked at each other, and then both came close to him.

"What do you mean!" Cian expressed his dissatisfaction before Hannah said anything.

Melvin frowned, whose health condition seemed not to allow him to speak, but he still lifted himself and looked them face to face. At that moment, he looked at Hannah with all his eyes and neglected Cian beside her.

"Luckily, I'm still alive." He said to Hannah with a cruel smile.

Hannah forced a smile and asked, "Should I congratulate you?"

"You should congratulate yourself, too," Melvin said in a weak voice, but he seemed still strong enough.

"So, Oscar did not lie to you, right?" Hannah asked. Or else, Melvin would have been dead already.

He sneered. There was no sign of any emotion in his expression. Melvin indeed began to trust Oscar. If Oscar wanted to kill him during the fierce fight that night, he had so many opportunities to take his life. Melvin was also quite clear that he was not Oscar's opponent. Every time and every movement seemed to be fatal, yet every movement gave him the chance to live. In the end, he jumped off the cliff, in fact, it was a deceitful escape.

Due to the preparation in advance, the way he was chased to death was the way he could escape to live. However, the play had to be real enough. He and Oscar, therefore, acted in a great play. He had already arranged some men lurking in the seawater in advance. As soon as he jumped out off the cliff, those men would give him the oxygen cover, and take him away immediately. Then he took the speedboat docked in the distance and came straight to this island.

The island, of course, was locked down half a day earlier. The reason why he let Hannah help him bought this island, was that he needed to seek a safe place for himself. He had already made a throughout the investigation of this island. It turned out that it was not only a geomantic place but a place that would be hard to break into due to its unique location. That was to say, even if the Collins family found him, it would not be easy if they wanted to kill him on this island.

After everything was ready, he went to the state dining banquet. Sure enough, everything had happened just as he and Oscar predicted. The Collins thought he was dead, even though the sea under the cliff was too rough for a man to survive, and more importantly, he had been shot one time. And that, thanks to Oscar, who reminded him not to wear body armour into the dining hall, in case Rowan would suspect, but to wear it after leaving the dining hall. After all, the gun showed no mercy.

Of course, Melvin also thought of it. Oscar's words made him trust him more.

But even with the body armour on, the bullet hit on his back and damaged his ribs. And with all the time spent in the seawater, all the running up to here, he had been extremely exhausted.

"I need rest, leave me alone," Melvin said in a commanding tone.

Cian was not convinced and he was a bit mad. He thought Melvin did not respect him since he had already arrived here before his leaving.

He was about to speak when Hannah stopped him, "let him rest, let's go back to the room." Cian looked at Hannah, and she said, "It's not late to wait until he's rested enough." Thus Cian swallowed it and left angrily. Hannah followed.

Melvin smiles slightly because he thought that the way Hannah was acting might show that she cared about him. But he told himself not to overthink it.

Hannah wouldn't be so kind actually. She just believed that in Melvin's state, he wouldn't waste time on her and Cian. For him, his life mattered the most, and he would take care of his health in the first place. Hannah and Cian walked together towards the stairs.

Hannah said in a low voice, " Cian, take care of yourself, do not take any risks."

Cian looked at her.

"Melvin doesn't know who you are, and he will not harm you for the moment."

Cian was a little bit nervous.

"I cannot let anything happen to you," Hannah said firmly.

"Then what about you?" Cian asked her in return.

She would live if only she could. Her life was less important than Cian, Hannah thought.

"Anyway, keep yourself safe, I know how to protect myself." Said she.

"How can you protect yourself?"
