Chapter 745
"On the surface, it looks like Melanie, but she has disappeared for now, and Nathan has been looking for her for the
past few days. Actually, he came looking for me because he can't find her, but North found out that she seemed to
have escaped to Worthersby."
Immediately, Kate blew her top. "That shameless woman is really persistent!"
"But I think it's not as simple as it seems. Think about it, if Melanie was acting alone, how would she know where
you've eaten and stage an act of hugging Nathan right before you?" Olivia pointed out.
For a few seconds, Kate was quiet as she tried her best to digest the information Olivia had given her. "You mean
someone has been stalking me?"
"Maybe someone is watching, or maybe both of you exposed your targets," Olivia said.
Kate's heart trembled with panic for some unknown reason at her words. "What do you mean? Are you saying it's

"That's only my suspicion. You have to pay more attention to it yourself."
"That can't be. We randomly found a restaurant yesterday, and he didn't purposely plan it.
Furthermore, he's an especially considerate guy. That day, I was so mad that I struck Nathan with my heels and got
into his car without shoes. The first thing he did was take me to a mall to buy socks and shoes, and he even cleaned
my feet for me. I think not even my mom would do something like this. How can such a gentle and attentive person
like him be so manipulative?"
"For such a meticulous man, will he randomly pick a restaurant?" Olivia pointed out directly.
Kate was silent. That's right. For a person like him who has a plan for everything, how could he randomly pick a
restaurant?
"I was the one who asked to go to a random restaurant, but maybe he had eaten in that place before. The food in
that restaurant is rather tasty, actually."
"Well, this is only my suspicion. If it's not him, then there's most probably someone who was following both of you,"
Olivia added.
"It looks like a puppet master is pulling the strings in the dark!" Kate muttered to herself.
"Seeing how you're defending Jasper, I feel kinda consoled. Do you have feelings for him already?"
"Actually, he's a really nice guy."
"So, you're going to friend zone him?"
Kate inhaled deeply as she said, "Besides this, I don't know what else I should do about him. Recently, I've been
trying my best to treat him as my boyfriend, but I realize that I really can't do it, and I even feel awkward when he
holds my hand!"
"Don't do it if you can't. Whether it's Nathan or Jasper, nobody should dictate your actions. You should just do as
your heart wants!" Olivia said.
"I feel much better after chatting with you. I've been feeling horrible recently," Olivia replied.

"That's because I'm afraid Eugene will come and get even with me," Kate said with a chuckle.
"What gives him the right to do that?"
"Well, you're his girlfriend."
"First, I'm myself before I'm his girlfriend. He doesn't have the right to ask me not to be myself. Do you get it?"
"You're amazing, Olivia Maxwell!" Kate complimented, laughing.
The court proceedings started three days later, and just as Evan and Mandy expected, even if Eugene wiped away
the incident of Ellen's death, the fact remains that Lara had a motive for harming Ellen in addition to defamation,
premeditated murder, poisoning, and other charges. Even if Penny had hired the best attorneys for Lara, she was
still sentenced to eleven years and six months of jail time.
For his part in setting up Ellen as the cheater in the relationship, Edward was imposed to a total of two years and
three months in prison.
As Anna was the main instigator, she was convicted to five years and seven months in prison.
