Damn! I Fall in Love With Him
Chapter 115: Tanner Mansion

Chapter 115: Tanner Mansion

Mel was shocked. She didn’t think that Ghosts was so slick. They could even pass through the XTeam headquarters, which was very difficult to track down. But this fake Mario can get away with it. If only she didn’t have an SCL that could identify fake Mario, it could be possible, their base will be attacked by Ghost. Instantly she felt goosebumps at the thought of XTeam basecamp being attacked.

"And another problem occurred," Alex said.

Alex’s voice brought Mel back from her deep thoughts. She looked at Alex with a curious look. "What is it, brother?"

Alex deeply sighs before he says, "What information do you think they could get from Mario?" Alex didn’t answer him but asked her back.

Mel was even more confused by Alex’s question.

Alex added, "Looking at Mario’s injuries, he’s been tortured very badly. I’m sure they were trying to extract important information about XTeam and possibly about the Bio Weapon 7 case!"

Mel was stunned. Her face turned ashen.

"B-brother, is this certain?"

Alex shook his head slowly. He said, "We’ll know when Mario wakes up. So, for the time being, you must be careful. You can become their target because you are our vital member who can easily find their location. If Mario spills about you..." Alex couldn’t continue his sentence. But, still, Mel knows what he means. She immediately feels shivers.

Along the way, they talk about Ghost and their new plan, without realizing they arrived at the gate of Tanner Mansion.

"Little Sister, are you ready?" Alex glanced at Mel, who had been sitting quietly.

Mel turned to look at Alex. She took a deep breath, then nodded slowly.

Alex got out of the car and opened the door for her.

They walked into the Tanner Mansion’s courtyard, which that night was decorated very beautifully.

Suddenly Mel’s childhood memories of being in this big house came back to her mind, her heartfelt warmth with a good memory. Still, before long, her face turned sad, and her chest felt heavy. She suddenly remembered her mother.

Alex, who saw Mel aura turn gloomy, immediately patted her back lightly and said with a calm tone... "Little Sister, smile. You have to look confident and show them that you are happy, don’t show them your sad-looking face like this. If you do that, Vivian will rejoice."

Mel nodded. She tried to calm herself by taking a deep breath and exhaling deeply. After that, she smiled, showing off her neat white teeth at Alex ... "Don’t worry, brother, I won’t spoil my mood, and thanks for the reminder."

"Good!"

They walked toward the backyard, and before long, a butler came up to greet them... "Young master Alex, welcome to the Tanner Mansion." He said with a respectful tone, and then he looked at Mel, "This is Miss?" He asks Alex.

"She is, Miss Tanner," Alex answered calmly.

Butler’s eyes widen when he hears Alex introduce the beautiful lady who looks familiar as young Miss Tanner. He saw Mel with teary eyes, then immediately bowed his head 90 degrees towards Mel. "Y-young Miss Melanie."

His voice sounds sad and happy at the same time, "you grow so fast, and you look so beautiful like madam. Oh my Lord, I couldn’t believe I could see you again, young miss." After he expresses his feelings, he continues his sentence, "Young miss Follow me. I’ll take you to Old Tanner. He’s already been restless waiting for you since this morning." He then led them to the old master study room.

Mel smiled at her grandfather’s Butler, and also she felt a little bit sad in her heart, "Thanks Butler Song."

They follow the Butler quietly. Mel feels strange when she enters the mansion. It feels surreal back at this place after many years past. She tries to calm her racing heart by thinking of the good memories she has of this place. They arrive on the second floor a minute later. They enter the same study room she remembered used to visit it when she was a child. The interior has not changed, still using the traditional interior style that perfectly fits with grandfather’s personality.

Mel was startled when she saw on the brown leather sofa sitting four the old man, they all chatting happily.

"Master, young miss, and young master Alex come," Butler said while bowing slightly.

Grandpa Tanner immediately stood up as soon as he saw Mel enter the room. "My lovely Mel, you finally came. Come here, give a hug to Grandpa." Mel immediately walked and hugged her Grandpa.

After that, Grandpa pulled Mel to sit on the sofa, but before she sat, someone greeted her.

"Little Mel? It’s been a long time since I saw you. You now become prettier..." Mel recognized him. He was grandpa Hill, Alex’s grandfather. He looks tall and still has a fit body, the same as when he was still a commander in chief when he was younger. The difference was, now his hair was all gray and slightly bald.

"Grandpa Hill, how are you?" Mel smiled at him.

Before Grandpa Hill had time to answer, Mel heard another old man greet her.

"My baby girl? Wow!! You changed a lot. Now you are this big and look very beautiful like a goddess." Mel looked at him, then her eyes widened, she saw an old man with gray hair, slightly taller than grandpa hill and have a sportier body, he is Andrew Grandpa.

Mel smiled, seeing him. "G-grandpa Will, you haven’t changed, still young and energetic like before." She remembers when she was a child, her grandfather often visited Will’s mansion. She always accompanied them to play chess or fishing in the lake behind Will’s Estate, and that’s when she got to know brother Miles a.k.a. Andrew.

"Come here, let me hug you, my baby girl..." Grandpa Will hugged her and patted her back gently. Mel feels happy and nervous at the same time because Grandpa Will soon is her Grandpa In law.
