Melody intended to pull Christopher and Philip down, but she felt both of them holding onto her at the same time. Together, they jumped from the plane.At that moment of descent, Philip noticed that Melody was facing Christopher, who was protecting the back of her head. Witnessing this, he looked desolate and released his grip.All three fell to the ground together.Melody's head was shielded by Christopher, so she didn't feel any pain. She emerged from his embrace, breathing lightly. "Are you okay?" she asked."I'm fine," Christopher replied, lips slightly curved.Hasty footsteps echoed. Immediately, the three became alert, swiftly getting up and looking towards the source of the sound.Alice, watching them rise from the ground, appeared puzzled. "What's going on with you guys?"Melody noticed Alice's abnormal expression, and asked, "Princess Alice, you don't look well. What happened?"Alice looked ashamed. "Sorry, Miss Nolan. While you were all at the airport, my father sec
As soon as the plane landed, Melody took Lisa to meet Cyril's mistresses. In just half a day, Lisa's love vanished completely.Seeing her saddened, Melody said, "A man like that isn't worth your devotion. I have a way to make him honest and stop him from harming other women, but I need your help.""What do you need me to do?" Lisa's eyes, devoid of the earlier despair, were now filled with hatred and anger.Seeing her finally awaken completely, Melody smiled with relief. She had saved the love-stricken brain; all the effort had not been in vain.Melody smirked, and said mysteriously, "First, you need to arrange a meeting with him.""Okay."Without hesitation, Lisa took out her phone and dialed the number she had long since memorized by heart. The phone rang for a long time before someone picked up."What is it?" a familiar voice said.Listening to that familiar voice, Lisa covered the receiver, took a deep breath, then flashed a smile."Cyril, I miss you. I want to see you,"
As the abrupt ringtone echoed, Melody had an unsettling premonition. While silently praying that nothing else would go wrong, she reached for her phone.Seeing that the call was from Ethan, she relaxed and answered.Through the receiver came Ethan's carefree laughter. "Miss Nolan, long time no see."She leaned back on the sofa, and gently massaged her temples. "Yes, indeed, it's been a while."After a brief exchange, Ethan cut to the chase. "Have you figured out a solution for Modish Group?" Melody shared the agreement between Modish Group's former supplier and the Organization V with him."I have some free time lately. Why not let me handle this matter?" Ethan offered.Seeing his initiative, Melody hesitated for a moment. She was currently stretched thin. Entrusting this to Ethan might work, but the Organization V's methods were too sinister and unpredictable. It was too dangerous for him to handle this."I'm also a partner in the new energy project. Miss Nolan, do you undere
"I never expected to fall into the hands of the Nolan family in the end. It truly is a disgrace to me!" Cyril burst into mad laughter.Suddenly, the sound of a helicopter came from above.Melody and Cyril both glanced out the window at a helicopter parked outside.Observing this, she couldn't help but twitch her lips inwardly, thinking, that this man was exaggerating too much. She had instructed Christopher to bring people to subdue Cyril's men, but she hadn't anticipated such an elaborate setup, even involving a helicopter. Was it because they feared she couldn't handle Cyril, so they sent a helicopter specifically for her?Thinking of Cyril still under her blade, Melody quickly redirected her gaze back to him, her eyes carrying a hint of mockery. "Throughout your scheming, did you ever consider that the past was just a misunderstanding?""A misunderstanding? Don't deceive me!" he exclaimed.Seeing his sudden change to a fierce expression, Melody remembered Philip and sternly
"You've misunderstood." Melody turned to face Cyril. "Back then, Grandma had no choice but to abandon you in order to save you."Hearing this, Cyril paused, tilting his head back with a few hearty laughs."Melody, you truly are the dotted granddaughter of this old lady. You believe whatever she says. Abandoning me for the sake of saving me? What a touching and moving explanation! Try to make your expression a bit more sincere, and I might just believe it!" Malice ran rampant on his face."Abandonment is abandonment. No need to paint your sins with such noble colors."Seeing his disbelief and increased hatred, Melody pursed her lips, looking at him with a desire to speak but hesitated. Just as she was about to speak, her clothes were tugged by a hand. Looking behind her, Melody saw Linette gently shaking her head."Cyril..." Linette couldn't help but speak up to stop his malicious words.Cyril's face was full of mockery. "What, a couple of words about your precious granddaught
Seeing their firm attitudes, Melody knew she couldn't persuade them further; more words were futile. The group entered the appraisal room.After the paternity test was completed, neither Cyril nor John and Linette looked particularly pleased."The test results will take three days. Mr. Cyril, please stay temporarily at the Nolan family during this time," Melody said.Thinking of Cyril's previous actions, she did harbor some resentment. But considering his experiences, she also felt a sense of pity. As she spoke, she involuntarily made sure to be polite."You talk so nicely. Are you afraid I'll do something wrong again? Is that why you want to watch over me?" Cyril smirked, his face tinged with mockery.Melody's brow furrowed. Though that was indeed her intention, hearing it from him made her feel like she was the unpardonable sinner."I'm considering everyone's safety, given the things you've done before. It's only natural to be cautious of you." she replied calmly.He chuckled.
Melody stepped out, and knocked on the car window. After a brief pause, the car window slowly lowered, revealing Christopher’s face."Mr. Bolton, your recent visits to the Nolan family seem rather frequent, don't you think?" she asked coldly."How's your mood?" he replied, dodging the question."What about it?" She looked at him, puzzled.He gazed deeply into her eyes. "You found out the truth last night. Are you still upset about it?"Melody pressed her lips. After what happened yesterday, the emotions of those involved were all troubled. She didn't want to add to anyone's discomfort, so she was silently processing it alone.She thought she had hidden these emotions well, but Christopher seemed to have noticed. For a moment, she didn't know what to do.He got out of the car, and gave her a warm smile. "I intended to accompany you last night, but you all had family matters to discuss, so I stayed outside waiting.""Wait, you stayed in the car all night?" It was then she notic
Once again, the family fell into silence. Cyril smiled to himself, but his expression was uglier than crying."It's my fault, all my fault. I've harmed so many people. Turns out, I'm the one who's a complete joke," he murmured softly, followed by some unclear words no one could understand.Melody could see that perhaps due to the tremendous shock, his mental state had become somewhat abnormal."Mel, it's up to you how to handle this. You have the final say," Linette said, her eyes slightly red.Although she felt guilty towards Cyril, a mistake was a mistake, and she couldn't shield him. She didn't want Melody to feel disheartened, either.Cold determination flashed in Melody's eyes as she stated decisively, "He broke the law and should face legal consequences."She was determined to send Cyril to the police station. And so, she called the police in front of everyone.The atmosphere in the living room grew heavy. Melody went to the garden to relax.A set of footsteps followed be
