Melody pouted in silence.Talia barked shamelessly behind Melody, "I thought Miss Nolan was a dashing and straightforward person, I did not expect her to be so nostalgic. She is already his ex-wife, yet she still comes here to curry favor with Chris. Nobody could ever know where she stands. To keep pestering her ex, she is just so thick-skinned. Perhaps the education she received from her family was mediocre."After saying that, she laughed coldly.Hearing the insult, Melody's long eyebrows twitched slightly, and she turned around."Apparently, you know that bad family education produces a bad personality. I do not have an aunt who is a mistress that personally teaches her niece to destroy other people's families. So I suppose if it is not a profession chosen by the elders of your family, you wouldn't be so good at it.""You!"Talia flushed in anger but was unable to refute it because Melody was telling the truth. "Stop changing the topic! Only the one who is not loved is the t
Olivia shook her head decisively. "No! I have to stay with Nat! What if she wakes up later and cannot see me?"Christopher was still as calm as usual and reasoned, "If you keep staying up like this, you will collapse before Nat wakes up. Do you want her to see you lying in a hospital bed as well? Would she be happy about it? Or do you want her worrying about you while she is sick?"The son knew his mother well. Christopher knew that she would not be convinced by simple words, so he coaxed her by manipulating her fears. Sure enough, she hesitated. She wavered while staring at her daughter."Okay. But you have to tell the caregiver to turn her body regularly and wipe her face and body every day with warm water. Don't use hot water. And one more thing, she has to call the nurse once the infusion is finished…"After listening to her nag for a while, Christopher brought her down and let Luke send her back.Meanwhile, Talia, who had been hiding in a corner, watched all of this in si
Madam Nolan's cooking was amazing. Melody had been very skinny because she was a picky eater when she was young. But after being fed with the former's delicious and nutritious food, her face finally got rounder.Though she had been ordering delicious meals from good restaurants, Madam Nolan's food was still incomparable. When Melody drank a large spoonful of soup, her chest immediately filled with warmth, and a considerable amount of fatigue that accumulated in her body dissipated.The soup was so tasty that she could not resist asking her grandmother for the secret of making good soup with the intention of improving her own cooking skills. During the conversation, Madam Nolan occasionally asked Melody about her work. But when she suddenly realized it, she quickly waved her hands and ended the topic."What am I doing? Being old makes me forgetful. Let's not talk about work during meals. Just focus on eating.""It's alright, Grandma. I know what I am doing. There's no harm in talk
Benjamin dodged and shouted bitterly, "Mother! I am your son! Why do you always side with her?"He did not finish what he wanted to say. "She will become a member of another family once she gets married, there is no use taking her side!""How dare you say that when you make your daughter into a liar!"Melody quickly held Madam Nolan, not because she was afraid of Benjamin getting beaten up, but because she was worried that her grandmother would accidentally trip and fall. "Grandma, be careful."When comparing the gentleness of her granddaughter to the wickedness of her incompetent son, Madam Nolan felt even more disappointed. She waved her hand and shouted, "I don't want to have lunch with you anymore. Get out of my sight!"Benjamin knew that it was impossible to gain any favor with Melody around. He pressed his lips bitterly and glared at Melody, then unwillingly left the house under the gaze of the maid. After he left, Madam Nolan was still angry, so Melody quickly brought h
The director was dumbstruck when he heard that and quickly defended himself, "We follow the rules and regulations closely. There is absolutely no favoritism, Miss Nolan!""Enough! Are you guys not going to join the show anymore?"The loud voice of the crowd drowned out Melody's voice. It was impossible to draw their attention.Albert immediately helped clear the way for her. While pulling them apart, he shouted, "Make way, the boss is here!"Melody was figuring out a plan when someone who seemed to enjoy watching the fight shouted, "Don't just gab on the matter, fight if you can!"The moment he said that a few boys were aroused.Calvert winked at his partner. He quickly immobilized the security guards and quickly broke through the crowd.In a flash, Calvert stood in front of Oliver. This was when the fight started!Oliver was a hot-tempered boy who could be provoked easily. His punches became heavier every time he swung his hand. Nigel, who was still sensible, immediately pulle
The news about Oliver and Calvert's disqualification from the program quickly became widespread.Nolan Enterprise reached out to both of their companies, requesting that they send someone to take the two away.Luke was the first to receive this news. He frowned upon hearing it, asking, "How did this happen? Okay, I got it."After hanging up, Luke looked at Christopher and found that he was deeply engrossed in his work and hesitated to interrupt.He decided to approach with a cup of freshly brewed tea. He chose his words wisely and cautiously, beginning, "Mr. Bolton, there's an update from the team at Nolan Enterprise."Christopher looked up, signaling for him to continue.Observing Luke's reluctance, he prompted, "Go on.""Oliver and an Altair Corporation trainee got into a fight and broke the program's rules. They've been disqualified, and I've dispatched someone to collect him.""Once he's back," Christopher scowled and commanded, "have him reflect on his actions."Luke then
Christopher had no reason to stay any longer at this point.Jasmine trailed behind him, and as they neared the door, she cast a cold glance back at Melody. What Melody had done to her today will stick with her.When there was another knock, Melody assumed it was Jenson returning.As she looked up, her mind had glimpses of fragmented memories. She spied a man's profile, somehow familiar but whose identity she could not place.She rubbed the aching point between her brows, ignoring the headache, and said, "Come in."The door opened from the outside, and Albert entered with an ice pack in hand.Melody questioned him softly, "Didn't I ask you to concentrate on your filming? Why are you back here?""Don't worry, Mel," he said cheerfully as he sat alongside her. "I'm on a break right now, and there's no need for me in the current game segment. I'm worried about you and want to see how you are doing."He placed the ice pack gently on her forehead, thoughtfully wrapping it in a towel t
The photo depicted a young couple in matching outfits, their eyes sparkling with affection as they gazed into the camera.On the back were the initials "P" and "M", written with elegant flair.The man in the photo was the one that frequently appeared in her dreams. He was the one who had taught her hacking skills and who had selflessly given his life to save her during the cruise ship disaster.This was her Philip.Her fingers trembled as they traced over the photo, and she could not restrain her tears any longer.Piece by piece, the scattered fragmented memories formed a logical narrative.All her memories of Philip came back to her in a flood.Philip Scott, the Scott family's eldest son, was a distinguished student at Copious College and Melody's senior. They had met at a dance, where their mutual attraction blossomed into love.They were each other's first love, a wonderful chapter in their youth that occupied an important part of their lives.Melody now understood why Sama
