MELANIE LAYTON'S HISTORY
Melanie was a party girl, living in Marseilles, France. She owed a few guys money, and when they came to collect, Max paid them off and Melanie was shocked to learn that the reason he did so was because they're siblings! She gives him a stolen necklace as payment, and was then arrested for stealing. She accused Max of stealing the bracelet, so she could get off. It worked. Max and Stephanie, too, were put in jail. She met Nick, who encouraged her to tell the truth, and once she did, Max and Stephanie were finally let go. She proved to be a handful, due to the horrible way she was brought up and abused. She was told by Trent, her father, to “party with” men in order to clear his gambling debts. She tried, but when she couldn’t do it, the man threatened her and Nick stepped in. The man was sent to jail, and Melanie, Max, Stephanie and Nick went back to Salem.
Melanie and Stephanie didn’t get along. Melanie was difficult and nasty to everyone but Max and maybe Nick. She tried to stay away from her abusive father and in front of witnesses says she wished he were dead. Soon, Trent is murdered and Melanie recalls meeting with him that night, but blacks out just before his murder. She only remembers waking up after, and assumed she may have killed him. She goes to Philip Kiriakis for help in finding the real killer, thinking she couldn’t have done it. When Caroline Brady turns up as suspect number one, Melanie is relieved in a way. Caroline is let go and Nicole and Melanie are both suspects in the case. Nicole is let go and the last suspect seems to be Melanie, but Salem PD detective Hope and new police commissioner Bo, find new evidence that leads to Nick Fallon.
Meanwhile, Melanie moves in with Nick, after receiving a note from an anonymous person who claims they saw her in the cemetery. She leans on him for support and starts getting anonymous phone calls as well. She panics and explains this to Nick, who tells her they’ll go away and hide. She’s reluctant to leave and figures she killed Trent. He tells her she did, lying so that she is kept needy toward him. He took her to a hotel near the airport and says if they marry, they wouldn’t have to testify against each other. Melanie has an epiphany and realizes that Nick killed Trent, and blasts him for letting her take the blame. Nick goes ballistic and when she tries to leave the hotel, he won’t let her. Hope and Bo arrive and Philip and Stephanie, and Nick is taken to jail while Philip saved Melanie from falling off the balcony. Nick is now in jail, awaiting trial for killing Trent and holding Melanie against her will, and Melanie has moved in with Maggie, at Nick’s insistence. She has a job with Titan as a receptionist and is causing issues with Stephanie.
