NovelOnlineChapter 1932 Lucas' gaze once again fell onto Melody's slender legs.
Feeling his stare, Melody quickly sat back down and covered her thighs." Uh, I can explain...but where are my clothes? Can I please change back into my own clothes?" Melody could not fathom why, given that nothing happened, she woke up naked in bed. Plus, she had searched the entire room and could not find her clothes anywhere.

Melody looked down at the white shirt and felt even more awkward. 'Oh, sorry. I couldn't find my clothes earlier, so I just put this on." Melody would have taken the shirt off immediately if she had another one. However, she could not find any other clothing anywhere.
"By the way, with such a low alcohol tolerance, drinking alone with a man does leave room for smisunderstandings," said Lucas.

She lowered her head in shand tugged at the blanket covering her.
"Lucas, could you please have the hotel send over my clothes? I can return yours to you then." "Sure." Lucas called the hotel service and gave them Melody's size accurately.
How does Lucas know my size so well? Did he see it yesterday?' The thought made her blush involuntarily again.

"Melody, are you in need of money?" "What?" Melody suddenly looked up, nodding but immediately shaking her head. 'Well, I am a bit short on cash, but I won't be anymore after you pay me." "If money isn't an issue, then why are you doing this?"

Melody wished there was sother explanation as well, but the stark truth remained.
"You find it hard to believe too, don't you?" Melody laughed self-deprecatingly. There was a hint of irony in her gaze when she looked up. 'I never thought my own parents would treatlike this either."
Melody lowered her head again, sighing softly. "My mom toldit would be the last tshe promised botheragain if Ithey won't bot cwith them to apologize to Mister William and help my sister secure a movie role."
