"I don't know what you're talking about. You promised me that you'd give up on Lucas, so you better keep your word," Beatrice said, pushing past Thalia to leave."Where are you going?" asked Thalia.Beatrice, being older, could not match the speed and strength of Thalia. She stumbled and felt some discomfort in her arm when Thalia pulled her. She had probably sprained her arm."I suggest you don't push your luck! This is my home, so I can go wherever I please. You, a guest, shouldn't act so cocky! Aren't you afraid that I'll call Lucas over?"Thalia did not care if Beatrice called Lucas over. After all, she had nothing to lose anymore. Moreover, they were in a corner where anyone rarely came over.Thus, sometimes living in a mansion also came with its own headache. With such a large mansion the Riveras lived in, Thalia was confident that no one would discover it immediately even if she did something to Beatrice there and then."Call him over if you're confident you can. Why waste

Cedric was filled with immense regret, wondering if the tragedy could have been prevented if he had followed Beatrice upstairs. At least then he could have tried to catch her when she fell, preventing her from lying here all alone.At that moment, he thought about many things. Earlier, when discussing matters of life and death with Lucas and Melody, he could still face them with composure. He and Beatrice had already agreed that no matter who left first, the other would follow after arranging everything. However, when everything actually happened, he found himself unable to do it; he could not accept her death."You've always bossed me around, so why aren't you telling me what to do now? Get up and tell me what to do! I just had two drinks with Old Freddy, so why aren't you giving me hell for it?"Cedric's aging face was even more wrinkled. Tears were pooling in his eyes, making him look even more pitiful.Melody stumbled and fell beside Lucas. She looked at the elderly woman in fr

Lucas wanted to refuse Thalia's suggestion. To his surprise, Melody paused for a moment and instead suggested that she and Quinn stay."Just as Thalia said, we need all the help we can get right now to find evidence. We'll also need to take Grandpa's shift at the hospital to look after Grandma after she wakes up. With so much going on at home, it's indeed overwhelming."Even though Beatrice was still lying in the hospital, her condition uncertain, Melody's words calmed Lucas' mind. It was as if telling him that his grandmother would wake up for sure."You're right. After Grandma wakes up, both of us will have to help Grandpa look after her. After all, he's getting old and can't be at the hospital all the time," Lucas said, nodding in agreement.After thinking about it, he looked up and gratefully glanced at Thalia and Quinn. "Thank you for offering your help. We might just really need it later on."Quinn was pleasantly surprised and smiled, waving her hands. "It's already a pleasa

[It's better to keep the peace and look at the bigger picture. What if Wendy starts spreading lies again and people believe her? Melody will be in trouble then.]Many people sent private messages to this fan, asking her not to provoke Wendy anymore. However, this fan ignored them all. After all, she did not need to do anything for Wendy to be provoked.Wendy had harbored hatred toward Melody for a long time, evident from her words and actions that she had resented her since the day Melody was born.'Oh, how naive those other fans are. Did they really think that crazy Wendy would stop posting harmful content about Melody just because we decided to stop engaging with her?' thought the fan.The fans should have toughened up after going through so much with Melody, but that was obviously not the case. Perhaps it was because of Melody's kind nature that all the fans she attracted were kind too.Even when faced with Wendy, Melody's fans would always take the softer approach instead of a

"What?" Thalia looked up, surprised by Melody's sudden question. Melody seized the opportunity to ask further."Why are you so insistent that Grandma fell by herself? Did you see something you're not telling us?"Thalia quickly changed her demeanor to one of apparent grievance."I didn't see anything. I just think Grandma Beatrice is old, and I know we all don't want this kind of accident to happen, but that's just life. I also know Lucas listens to you now, so whatever I say, you both think it's wrong. I'm fine with that, but it's also precisely because he listens to you that you should advise him. Or do you really want him to keep worrying like this?""Is that so? Is that what you think?" asked Melody.There was no way Melody would be easily fooled by Thalia, given their past history. She had already suspected Thalia, but she could not say anything since she did not have any evidence yet. After all, Thalia might take it as Melody causing trouble for her.Lucas touched Melody's
