Leonard scoffed at this, and raised his voice to ask. "You don't deserve to say that. Life savior you say? You have controlled her for so many years, how many illegal things has she done for you? Can you still say that you saved her life?"
After that, Frans looked at him coldly. "I saved her and asked her to do something for me. Does that sound weird?"
Leonard was frustrated by his fiery rage. When he thought of Mellisa's wandering life all those years because of this man, he couldn't wait to plunge a hard fist on his face.
At this moment, Jean's eyes fell on his cheek. Frans was not surprised, and he asked unhurriedly, "Are you saying that you knew she was going to have an accident?"
Frans spoke frankly and proudly, "Not only did I know that something was going to happen to her, I also knew who wanted to kill her. Her sister and aunt intended to kill her together, and she was supposed to be dead for sure. Knowing this, I thought of doing good deeds… So, isn't saving her and then making her mine interesting?"
Leonard was surprised by his words. "Do you know Trisa and Leila?"
Frans furrowed his brows and smiled coldly. "I don't know, but that doesn't stop me from getting information. The underground casino behind the nightclub is a place where various people gather. Those of us who have spent our money at the casino can't be short on information. Leonard, you used to be a police officer in the capital city, you must be familiar with underground casinos, right? We can meet a lot of bad people there."
"Besides, don't think that people's hearts are dark. Many of us are mutually helping each other, basically everyone is a businessman. Leila herself is the same, she has money and the people at the casino have abilities."
The daughter of the Irwan family, the granddaughter of the Mayer family… How many people with such a status in Indonesia? Unknowingly, she had become my subordinate that I could easily control. I taught her many skills through my acquaintances. If Lilia hadn't appeared by accident, she would have been controlled to death by me in this life. Jean, by the way, we haven't settled the issue between us yet. You started it all, don't expect to run away from a payback!"
There was no doubt in Frans Ruihan's eyes. His current attitude and tone of voice was arrogant.
Of course, he didn't save people out of good intentions.
On the contrary, he liked Mellisa's identity and nurtured her. He also forged her into a sharp knife in his hand.
In this way, in case he stumbled upon something, he could use Mellisa's identity as a shield.
She's a descendant of the Mayer family… Who would dare to ignore her?!
It's just that, he did not think Mellisa would meet with Lilia, and he did not think that she would have sex with Leonard.
Thinking of this, Frans' face became irritated. He faintly looked at the silent Leonard with hatred in his eyes. "Do you know why I chose to help Lockhart and his son?"
Leonard could clearly feel his hatred, he narrowed his eyes. "Because you hate me?"
Frans took a deep breath, his shoulders shook slightly, and the glass he was clamping in his hand cracked violently. "If it weren't for you, the person she met at the bar while she was in Jakarta would have been…. me!"
When those words were finished, Frans' palms were immediately covered in blood.
In his rage, he shattered the glass in his hand, and his constantly moving facial muscles made him look terrifying.
He was clearly ready to meet Mellisa, from the drugs to the trick, every step was accurate in his calculations.
However, Leonard suddenly came and disrupted all of his plans!
Mellisa should have belonged to him in the first place!
At this time, Leonard looked at Frans' right hand with a strange face. The shards of the wine glass penetrated into his flesh, but he still squeezed his palm tightly.
His gaze slowly moved upwards, and he met Frans's stunned and hateful eyes, then hesitantly said, "You gave her medicine?"
"Is it important?" Frans sneered while looking at Leonard. His eyes had a touch of melancholy. "Everything has been messed up. The person I held in my hands for so many years… because of your arrival, all of my plans were ruined. I know everything about Mellisa because everyone around her is all arranged by me."
"From the moment I rescued her, I sent her to my base to recover. Watching her grow step by step, I have been waiting for the day of my fateful meeting. That day, I should meet her with my true face and fall in love again. If that really happens, I can proudly show off my woman who comes from two big families in Jakarta. And if Mellisa's actions were exposed, I would have the Mayer and Irwan families take care of it. They would be helpless because their granddaughter was in my hand!"
After the words fell, Frans' expression changed. He closed his eyes tightly, revealing a hint of bitterness.
He had nurtured her for so long and carefully trained her for a long time, but in the end, he had to lose her.
He really wanted to kill Leonard.
So he did not hesitate to threaten Mellisa with Leonard's life at stake, and as long as she obeyed him, he could forget her mistakes.
But now everything is destroyed!
His efforts were in vain, and this hatred gave him the idea to help Lockhart get rid of Leonard.
As a result, he was trapped and into the net created by Jean!
At this time, Frans' expression changed several times, and finally returned to normal after a while.
His eyelids hung downwards as he looked at his bleeding palms, and his voice hoarse. "Jean, I've said all there is to say. Now, I want to talk to you alone! If you still don't agree, then I don't mind fighting until one of us dies. Even though I don't have as many resources as yours, I believe I can hurt those around you."
"Fine!" Leonard stood up just in time. "I will go out!"
Then, he stood up from the chair and left the room.
Hearing what Frans had done left him a little breathless.
He didn't expect that the man would still have that kind of feelings towards Mellisa.
Knowing the ins and outs, he was very lucky because it was he who met Mellisa at the bar, not Frans.
Otherwise, Mellisa would have fallen deeper into hell today.
A woman like her, despite looking cold and tough, had never received the attention of her family since she was a child, which made her yearn for things like warmth.
If the person she met was Frans, she might actually choose to stay with him.
Mellisa had wandered for too long, and in that state of mind, no matter who appeared, it would definitely leave an imprint on her heart.
At this moment, Leonard was struck in a cold sweat by his own thoughts.
He walked to the balcony outside the room with a confused look, somewhat having trouble breathing with his hands on the railing.
Finally, he understood why Mellisa could smell poison…
And it's all because of Frans Ruihan!
