Chapter 1911

"How dare you accuse me of making things up? Have you forgotten what you did yesterday?" Melody pulled out the USB drive the bar owner had given her. "Even if you've forgotten, that's okay. I have evidence! Shall I play it for everyone to watch?"Wendy was momentarily stunned. This marked the first time in many years that Melody had straightforwardly vehemently opposed her. Perhaps knowing she had a place to go in the coming year made Melody less fearful of being kicked out of the family.Wendy started to panic when she heard Melody had evidence. In a softer tone, she said, "Melody, you've already made a mistake. Don't make it worse. Mom and Dad might forgive you if you just admit your fault!"However, Wendy's efforts to stop Melody seemed to underscore the strength of the evidence in Melody's possession. Melody turned to Ethan, saying, "Dad, I'm still your daughter. Can't you at least give me a chance to prove my innocence?"For the first time in many years, Ethan took a serious

After watching the two videos, Ethan had made up his mind.He turned to Wendy and asked, "Wendy, what's really going on?"Even though he witnessed Wendy getting entangled with an older man, Ethan's tone was notably softer compared to the sternness he displayed during yesterday's phone call with Melody. It highlighted the difference. No matter what mistakes Wendy made, Ethan would not genuinely blame her or abandon her. Melody, on the other hand, seemed disposable."Dad, he's a boss in the entertainment industry. My agent introduced me to him, and I just wanted to secure a role. Nothing happened between us," Wendy pleaded pitifully. "Entering the entertainment industry was my own choice. I didn't want to trouble you to pave the way for me, so I had to rely on myself...""What about this, then?" Melody presented a hotel registration record. She was grateful that Edmund was there to help her acquire such evidence. "Why did Wendy book a room, but it was occupied by a man named Willia

It was only then Helen began to pay attention to Melody, but it was already too late.Melody got up from the sofa and walked to stand in front of the three of them."Mom, Dad, besides explaining my situation with Wendy today, I came back to tell you that I'm getting married.""Melody, marriage is a big deal! How could you make such a decision without discussing it with us? Do you still regard your parents with any respect?" asked Wendy, seizing the opportunity to stir up trouble again.Her casual remarks immediately ignited Ethan and Helen's anger.Helen stood up, took a few steps forward, and slapped Melody."Who gave you permission to get married? Who are you marrying? Did you even ask for our opinion? Don't tell me you've become a mistress and ruined someone else's family!"Melody covered her throbbing cheek and turned to look at Helen disappointedly."Mom, I've said it before. I haven't been involved in any homewrecking! Marriage is my own business. It's a matter of persona

"I'll repay every penny you've spent on me. As for the marriage, I won't follow your wishes."Melody picked up her suitcase and turned to leave."Melody, stop right there!" Helen's shout fell on deaf ears. She clutched her chest out of frustration, looking like she might faint."Dad, Helen, don't be angry," said Wendy in mock docility. She walked to Helen and gently held her hand. "Melody is just being stubborn. You still have me! I'll make sure to find a great husband in the future so as not to disappoint you and Dad.""Thank goodness we still have you. Melody used to be sensible when she was younger. I don't know how she turned out like this," said a heartened Helen."It's because you didn't raise your daughter properly!" muttered Ethan angrily. "If she wants to leave, let her leave!"Helen was silenced by his outburst.As Melody walked out of the Sanders' residence, she let out a long sigh, feeling a sense of rebirth.It was the day when she could finally prioritize her happ

Beatrice's question made Melody uneasy. How on earth could she explain to Beatrice that their meeting was the result of a one-night stand because she entered the wrong room last night?Lucas had not briefed her on how to handle this situation, so she was scrambling for the right words."We..." After a prolonged pause, Melody finally said, "This one time, I ran into some trouble, and Lucas helped me out. I thanked him afterward, and, well…we got to know each other."She deliberately made her answer general enough so as to not cause suspicions."Really?" Beatrice eyed Melody skeptically. "I never thought of Lucas as the heroic type."Melody silently agreed with Beatrice. Lucas appeared aloof and uninterested in others' affairs.Melody forced a laugh and said, "Perhaps it's just fate, you know…"She had to spin a little tale without giving too much away.'Seems like she's different from the previous women around Lucas,' thought Beatrice as she observed Melody's sweet demeanor.Of

Upon hearing Beatrice's words, Melody finally learned why Lucas wanted to marry her. After all, she did not believe that he was the type of guy who would feel responsible for her just because they had a one-night stand, nor did she think he lacked any potential marriage candidates.'No wonder Lucas rushed into this marriage proposal. It seems his family is really pressuring him, and he needed a quick solution,' thought Melody."Melody, I can tell you're a good girl. With you by his side, we can have a bit more peace of mind," said Beatrice.Facing Beatrice's goodwill, Melody felt a pang of guilt. Her marriage to Lucas was built on a lie, and she wondered how she would ever face Beatrice after the inevitable divorce from Lucas a year later.Beatrice shared some heartfelt advice during their stroll. She then had a servant take Melody to rest in Lucas' room.'Am I dreaming?' Melody could not help but marvel at the room much larger than her old one.Just a while ago, she had been liv

After preparing the pancakes and scrambled eggs, Melody decided to wrap up the cooking with a pot of oatmeal. As she did so, however, she felt a sudden discomfort in her stomach.Melody quickly turned to Chloe beside her and said, "Chloe, I need to use the restroom for a moment. The oatmeal isn't ready yet, so can you keep an eye on it for me?""Sure, Miss Melody," replied Chloe.The moment Melody left, however, a sinister smirk appeared on Chloe's face.…When Melody returned from the restroom, she found Chloe already serving the oatmeal."Is the oatmeal done?" "Yes." Chloe placed all the food on the table and said, "I'll go get Mister Cedric and Miss Beatrice down for breakfast now."Melody nodded with a smile and took a seat at the table. Oddly, she could not shake the feeling that Chloe's gaze held a hint of dislike toward her. However, she brushed it off, hoping it was just her imagination.After a while, Cedric and Beatrice arrived at the dining room.Beatrice smiled k

"Food poisoning?" Lucas turned to Mandy.Cedric and Beatrice had always been under Mandy's care, and she was responsible for their daily meals.Mandy quickly stood up, waving her hands in explanation. "Mister Lucas, I truly had no idea! I've always been cautious about your grandparents' health and never gave them anything from outside. How could this happen?"Mandy was anxious to defend herself. However, she lacked evidence to prove her innocence and could only gesture nervously.'Contaminated food? I made breakfast this morning. Is this happening because of me?' thought Melody suddenly.She glanced at Mandy, who looked visibly concerned. After a moment of hesitation, she stood up and timidly said, "Um... I prepared breakfast this morning, and I also cooked dinner last night. I don't think this has anything to do with Mandy."Lucas raised an eyebrow, silently gazing at her.In truth, he trusted Mandy. After all, she had been taking care of Beatrice for so many years, and their b

After snapping out of her shock, Melody was compelled to question Chloe.As Melody got closer, Chloe started stepping back and accidentally fell to the ground. "Miss Melody, I... I didn't mean to tattle on you, but since Mister Cedric and Miss Beatrice are this sick, I have no choice but to tell Mister Lucas what I've seen!"Melody looked at Chloe, who still was on the floor, with a frown on her face. "Just what are you trying to achieve by throwing baseless accusations at me?"Chloe looked away. She put on a frightened look of almost being on the verge of tears as she shuffled closer to Lucas.Lucas glared at Melody. "Speak! Why did you want to harm my grandparents?"It was then Melody understood that he had chosen to trust Chloe over her.It was understandable, considering one was a maid who had been part of their household for many years, while the other was a relatively unknown woman he had just met.It was clear whom Lucas would believe.In the past, Melody might have quie

However, Lucas chose to go along with Melody's plan and followed Chloe home.…The taxi stopped at the entrance of the Riveras' residence. Chloe hastily paid the fare and rushed into the yard.Melody never could afford further education after high school, so she reluctantly entered the workforce. Finally, she landed a position as a maid working for the Rivera family. The work was simple, but the pay was good.Nonetheless, what mattered most was meeting Lucas. She had a crush on him.Initially, she never dared to dream about being with such an unattainable man. She was content with just observing him from a distance for the rest of her life, but then Melody appeared.'If an unassuming woman like Melody can become Mister Lucas' wife, then I can, too!' thought Chloe.Little did she expect Melody to be quite cunning, figuring out a way to prove innocence by use of fingerprint verification. Thus, she needed to hurry home and wipe away all the evidence. That way, Melody would not have
