Chapter 2281

"Is this guy crazy? Did he really say, 'Feel free to come again'?" Monica rubbed her own goosebumps, while Penny smiled faintly.Penny somewhat understood Lucas' perspective. Perhaps when he said those words, it was all for Melody's sake. After all, Monica was good friends with Melody, and he likely wanted to maintain a cordial relationship with her.As they watched Monica and Penny flee, Melody smiled. When she locked eyes with Lucas, she could not resist blurting, "I have something to tell you…"Lucas stood there for a moment. They both knew what Melody wanted to say. Eventually, he walked over to her in silence."I…want to go back to filming after I've recovered," Melody said.She thought it would be challenging to bring the matter up to him, knowing that every incident not only affected her but also Lucas, Beatrice, Cedric, and others who cared about her.Melody did not want to keep causing them to worry. However, she could not suppress her genuine desire to act.Melody tigh

Lucas thought that Melody should act if she wanted to act. However, he would not allow a repeat of what happened.He was aware of the public backlash against Shaun's crew, but managing public opinion required patience. The most effective time to clarify things would be when public negativity peaked.Lucas had already planned ahead. He knew deep down that Melody would never give up acting.He went home to get some casual clothes for Melody. As he got out of the car, Thalia came running toward him."Lucas, you're back!" Thalia seemed to be in a good mood. She hugged his arm, wanting to walk inside together. However, Lucas calmly withdrew his arm."Lucas, you must be tired from taking care of Melody in the hospital," Thalia said."No, you stay here. I need to talk to Lynette about something."Thalia frowned, insisting on going with him. "What are you going to talk about? Can't I listen? Do you know how boring it is for me alone at home?"It was not a big deal, and she could certai

"I know I've caused you trouble, but I just wanted to come back. If it weren't for you, why would I fly back alone and wait at the chilly airport? But don't you worry, I won't trouble you anymore!"Thalia turned around and ran away.Lucas grew frustrated. Thalia was unfamiliar with the place, and letting her run around might lead to unforeseen accidents.Thus, he quickly ran up, grabbed her, and tried to comfort her."Fine, I shouldn't have said what I said. I don't find you troublesome at all. It's just that you said you were bored at home, so I was trying to come up with a solution. You should be having fun with your friends during your school break. Yet you're stuck here with Grandpa and Grandma. You can stay as long as you don't find it unbearable."Thalia listened to his explanation, sniffing. "Do you really mean what you say?"Lucas replied somewhat helplessly, "Yes. I swear.""I'm not getting in the way of you spending time with Melody, am I?"Lucas frowned, not understa

Just as Lucas was about to respond, Beatrice suddenly appeared downstairs, interrupting him.Beatrice walked over with a smile. "Lucas, why are you still here? Don't you have something to do? Don't let Melody wait in the hospital for too long. She's still a patient after all."Upon seeing the elderly woman approaching, Thalia understood that her plan might not work out. Even if Lucas was willing to agree, Beatrice would surely not allow her to go to Melody's film set.She turned and greeted Beatrice with a smile. "Hello, Grandma Beatrice."Beatrice, as if just noticing her, said, "Oh? You're here too?"She then looked at Lucas. "You must be back here for a reason. Why are you still standing here foolishly?"Lucas finally reacted. He quickly said to Thalia, "I need to check with Melody first to see if you can go to the film set. I'm afraid I can't make that decision on my own."Thalia's smile looked a bit forced. She had hoped to seize this opportunity to visit Melody's film set.

'Why does this old lady insist on coming between Lucas and me? I'm the one who knew him before Melody did! And he promised my sister that he'll take care of me forever!' thought Thalia.However, in these years, she and Lucas had spent little time together. Lucas' career was in the country, and it was not possible for him to spend so much time with her.Moreover, Lucas was a simple-minded man. He only took care of Thalia because of the promise he had made to her sister. Thus, the only advantage Thalia had over Melody was that she knew Lucas way earlier than her.Nonetheless, Thalia was not willing to accept that fact. There should be a sequence between them.'I've known him for so many years before that woman, so why does she get to be with Lucas? Even Grandma Beatrice has accepted Melody as her granddaughter-in-law! Just what kind of magic spell did Melody put on that old woman to make her speak so highly of her?'At that moment, Cedric also slowly walked over to them. He stood wi

Cedric sighed, acknowledging the situation. However, as elders, they found it challenging to directly intervene in such ambiguous situations."We can only hope that Thalia will gracefully step out once she realizes that Lucas doesn't like her that way. That's the best outcome for everyone," Cedric remarked.Beatrice, who always cared deeply for Melody, expressed relief that what happened just now did not happen in Melody's presence. Otherwise, it would have been emotionally challenging for her."No, I must find time to have a serious talk with Lucas. He's already someone else's husband, so he should draw a clear boundary with other women," said Beatrice firmly.Cedric knew that persuading his wife would be futile when he saw the determined look on her face.…The atmosphere on the set was tense since the crew members were afraid that Shaun would suddenly call it quits.Penny and Monica did not have much to do on the set, but staying at home made them uneasy. Thus, they decided t

To be more straightforward, Shaun would clarify everything as soon as Melody returned to the set. After all, the production team had to rely on Lucas for support.Monica's eyes widened after hearing Penny's analysis. "Is what you're saying true? I didn't know Melody has the backing of someone so powerful! Does that mean I'm going to have it easier from now on since we're friends?"Monica knew Melody had Lucas' support when she became friends with Melody, but she did not think too much about it. After all, the two of them looked like a perfect match."But why do I feel like Melody doesn't seem like someone who'd rely on Lucas? Didn't you see it too when we visited her last time? Lucas left the room to give us some space as soon as we told Melody we had something to tell her. I feel like he respects Melody a lot," said Monica.Penny nodded. "Looks like your eyes are not just for show. I mean, Lucas is pretty powerful, but that doesn't necessarily mean there's anything improper betwee

Chapter 2288

Despite Melody's concerns about whether this constant companionship might exhaust Lucas, there was no doubt that Lucas' round-the-clock presence provided her with a strong sense of security, and her mood improved significantly.Lucas, realizing that his companionship was beneficial to Melody's physical well-being, was very pleased. He felt extremely grateful for heeding Patty's words and noticing Melody's psychological issues.However, for the past couple of days, Melody had been insisting on going home to rest, unwilling to stay in the hospital any longer."You heard what the doctor said yesterday, right? I've already recovered about ninety percent, and the doctor said I can rest at home now!" said Melody.Lucas was organizing things, and Melody's gaze followed him as he moved."Stay in the hospital for a couple more days. And there's one test result still pending. Wait for that report to come in before going home."Lucas' tone was indifferent, and to Melody's ears, it sounded s

Lucas nodded somewhat helplessly, but seeing Melody so happy, his mood lifted as well. At that moment, he could not foresee how Melody's emotions might affect him in the future."Since you've asked so nicely, I guess I've no choice but to relent. Come on, change into something casual. Let's go home."Melody was ecstatic all the way, and even when they reached the entrance of their mansion, her face still bore a bright smile. She was eager to get inside."It's only been a little over ten days since I was last home, but it feels a bit unfamiliar already," she remarked.Lucas reached over to unbuckle her seatbelt. "No need to be so dramatic. You'll see that nothing has changed once you get out of the car."Melody did not take his remark to heart, given the good mood she was in. At that point, she had not realized that she already considered Lucas' home as her own."Oh, Melody, you're back?"Melody was thrown off by a girl's voice, and her smile faltered. She instinctively turned to

Melody remained silent and avoided Lucas' outstretched hand, walking ahead alone.Thalia followed behind with a face full of grievance. She pouted and looked at Lucas but found that his attention was entirely elsewhere.Thalia reluctantly suppressed her feelings, but her heart was already filled with resentment.Beatrice and Cedric were waiting at the door. Melody had called them when she was still in the car, and they eagerly anticipated her return.It had been several days since they last saw Melody, and they were not able to visit her at the hospital. They were eager to know how she was doing."She's back! Melody's back! Welcome back, sweetheart!" Beatrice hurriedly descended the steps, her movements so swift that Cedric struggled to keep up.Melody quickly walked forward, winning a few steps and grabbing Beatrice's arm.Beatrice, genuinely concerned for Melody, sighed after giving her a thorough look. "You've lost weight. Why are you so skinny now?"Melody had not noticed i
