Chapter 2191

Based on what Nathan understood, the Riveras' old lady ought to belong to the latter group. The Riveras intentionally handed over all the good scripts to Melody, as she was their new and hard-sought granddaughter-in-law. However, Melody had no intention of exploiting her privileges in such a manner. She wanted to land a role in the movies fairly.Then again, everything he heard was nothing more than hearsay. Discerning the veracity of the information thus became a challenge. Those who had a longstanding involvement in showbiz would have forged some connections, and Nathan was no different.Melody nodded without the slightest hint of reservation. There was no point in her trying to hide her status since it was already common knowledge. Doing so would give her the impression that she was being too petty.Furthermore, it worked to her advantage for outsiders to know that she was the granddaughter-in-law of the Riveras since she was still under contract with Lucas. She was well aware of

Melody recoiled in fear and took two steps back. She then hastily reached forward and grabbed Lucas' hand in a desperate attempt to halt further violence."What are you doing, Lucas?! Stop it—" Melody pleaded as Nathan got back to his feet and struggled to contain his rising temper.Melody knew that Lucas was strong enough that Nathan stood no chance against him in a physical confrontation. To avert escalating tensions, Melody disregarded her safety and positioned herself in front of Nation. Lucas ceased his aggression after being hugged tightly by Melody."This is a misunderstanding, Lucas! Calm down and hear me out!" Melody then turned and said to Nathan, "Hurry up and leave! I'll—"Before she could finish her sentence, Lucas dragged her away by force.Clearly seething with anger, Lucas held Melody's wrist like a clamp. His grip was so powerful that she hissed in pain."It hurts! What's gotten into you, Lucas?! Let me go!" Melody stumbled as he dragged her away and attempted to

"Me? Out of my mind? Did you have to react so dramatically to me? Why didn't you react that way with that other guy?" Lucas narrowed his eyes threateningly."What did you think Nathan and I were doing in my lounge?" Melody gestured to herself with a perplexed expression. Lucas offered no response, yet his silence spoke volumes."What do you take me for, Lucas? Just because you don't respect me doesn't mean you can assume that others won't either!" Irritated, she took two steps back and distanced herself from him.The lounge door was wide open when he entered. If she had harbored ulterior motives, she would have been an idiot to leave the door open like that. They had merely signed a contract, and he had no right to attack another man as if he was her boyfriend—which he clearly was not."What does this have to do with respect? Do you think it's appropriate for you to be so close to that man?" Lucas asked coldly.His arrogant, condescending gaze only fueled Melody's anger. "That has

There were times Lucas could feel as though Melody had feelings for him, so he could not understand why she was that reluctant to reconsider their relationship.Melody cried and shouted, "Why should I be with someone who doesn't know how to respect me? Do you even know the meaning of the word 'respect'? Just because you are the Rivera Group's president doesn't mean you can treat me badly."Melody's shoulders were trembling, and she closed her eyes to try and stop herself from crying. Lucas's mind went blank for a moment. He raised his hand to wipe away her tears, but she avoided it by instinct."Enough! Stop playing games with me. And don't lie to me anymore..." Melody whimpered, feeling drained of all energy."Lie? When did I lie to you? I don't understand what you're accusing me of!" Lucas retracted his hand. His expression soured, and he gazed down at the crying Melody.Melody smiled bitterly. "You don't understand anything, do you?""Yes, I don't," Lucas answered frankly an

Melody turned around in frustration and said, "This has nothing to do with Nathan! It's about you assaulting Nathan for no good reason! He is my colleague! We're at work! You don't even know what we're talking about!""I might not know what you were doing with him, but I have eyes, Melody! I'm not blind!" Lucas yanked his tie in frustration."So, you think I'm cheating on you and having an affair with another man?" Melody found his logic extremely absurd. She never questioned him about his relationship with Thalia, yet he was jumping to conclusions about her relationship with Nathan!'What does Lucas think of me? A pet to keep at home and entertain only when he's in a good mood? He listens to me when he's in a good mood, but he can't even let me finish a sentence when he's unhappy!'Melody became angrier the more she thought about it. She raised her arm and pointed at the door. "I don't care what you think! It's not like you're going to understand whatever I say anyway! Please leav

In the end, she left the room when Lucas was out. Nathan must still be in disarray, and all Melody wanted was to apologize to him. However, with all that had happened—especially the matter of her and Nathan being shipped together by the fans—made it challenging for her to explain everything at once.She needed to go home and clarify things with Beatrice and Cedric. As she was still under contract with Lucas, she felt obliged to ensure that neither of them worried too much.With that thought in mind, Melody decided to send an apology text to Nathan since she could not locate him anyway. [I'm really sorry, Nathan. How are you feeling now? Are you hurt?]She hurried home and asked one of the assistants on set to help check on Nathan.Nathan seemed to be in good condition and even sent her a photo of himself. [Don't worry. It wasn't that bad. Mister Lucas held back.]Melody felt relieved to hear that it was not serious, but her apologies continued. [I'm sorry I got you involved in thi

When Melody was given a spoon and a serving of lime sorbet, she did not know how to begin telling them about what happened."How does the lime sorbet taste? I put a lot of effort into making it.""Really? Let me try it!" Melody hastily took a slice and savored its sweetness before swallowing. "It is delicious! Your cooking is always the best!"Cedric enjoyed his serving of lime sorbet too, but Beatrice served him a very small portion out of concern for his blood sugar."I'm glad you enjoy it. It makes all the trouble worth it! How about I have someone bring you lunch to the set later in the afternoon?"Melody's hand paused as she stirred the sorbet. "I might not go to the set this afternoon. There's been an incident.""Oh?" Beatrice promptly set down her spoon. "Did someone bully you again? You need to tell us if that's the case!"Melody felt a surge of warmth in her heart. Beatrice and Cedric had provided her with the care and affection she never once received. "No, no one trou

Melody gazed at Cedric, who had just finished his bowl of lime sorbet and was delicately wiping the corners of his mouth. He nodded to his wife's observation. "Don't worry, Melody. Your grandma and I stand by you. We know that you're not that kind of person. We've seen this sort of thing a lot already."Melody then turned to Beatrice, noticing not a single hint of blame in her expression—only genuine concern that brought tears to Melody's eyes. She felt incredibly fortunate to have encountered the old couple, but she felt a simultaneous pang of disappointment settling in.The interactions with Lucas' grandparents felt remarkably different from her interaction with Lucas. They unconditionally chose to believe in her, yet Lucas could not even show her the courtesy to try and understand her situation.A sigh escaped her lips.Beatrice's dissatisfaction with Lucas grew evident, and she was clearly displeased with her grandson's inability to comprehend a woman's heart. When it came to s

"At the end of the day, this issue is between a young couple who are going through a tough time. Don't be so harsh on Lucas," Cedric remarked.Beatrice rolled her eyes. "Look at you, already defending him before I even said anything to Lucas. You're the reason he's like this!""Sure, it's all my fault. It's not like you've ever spoiled Lucas, right?" Cedric chided sarcastically.Beatrice cocked an eyebrow. "Are you trying to settle old scores with me? I won't deny that I doted on Lucas when he was a child! But when it comes to more important matters, I never let him do as he pleased!"Cedric nodded. "Okay, okay. You're right. I'm the one who let him have his way. But on a more serious note, I do need to talk with him when he returns. He can't just cast aspersions on Melody like this!"Beatrice sighed and pointed out, "Melody is sad because he doesn't trust her."Even Cedric acknowledged that the entire issue centered around trust.…Melody went into the room with a heavy heart.

Lucas did not return the entire night, and Melody was unsure how she eventually fell asleep.The following morning, she came down and saw Edmund. In the meantime, Beatrice was having breakfast at the nearby dining table and offered a smile when Melody descended. Edmund greeted Melody respectfully, too."Edmund? Why are you here at this hour?" Melody asked, puzzled. Under normal circumstances, Edmund was always with Lucas and rarely visited the home.Edmund nodded slightly and replied, "He flew abroad last night. I'm here to pack up his belongings and catch a nine o'clock flight."'He went abroad?' Melody was stunned, but she soon nodded and chose not to dwell on it. Once Edmund noticed that Melody was up, he immediately went up the stairs to collect Lucas' luggage.Lucas had departed without informing Melody, which greatly displeased Beatrice. However, she concealed her anger in Melody's presence. Adding discord to their already-delicate relationship would not be a wise choice.L
