Chapter 558 (A Sneak Attack)

Melissa bit her lips and stared at Jacob with tears in her eyes. "I'm not leaving either, Jacob. What's the point of living if you die? I can't live without you anymore…" 

 

At last, Melissa had blurted out her innermost thoughts. 

 

She had long fallen in love with Jacob but only held back from confessing her feelings because of Stefanie. 

 

Now that the truth was out, Melissa's face flushed with embarrassment. 

 

Although Jacob was stunned by the confession, Stefanie remained unfazed. She held Melissa's hand and gave her a reassuring smile. "It's okay, Melissa. I've known this for a while now. I'm just glad we can both be with Jacob, even in death." 

 

Melissa nodded excitedly in response, nary a trace of fear or panic on her face. 

 

Death, to Stefanie and Melissa, was nothing to fear. As long as they were with Jacob, nothing else mattered.
