Lucas pressed both hands on Melody's head. "How generous of you to push your husband to another woman so casually and walk away so freely with another man." Melody smirked. "Did I do something wrong? Isn't that what you've wanted? Didn't you always run to Miss Stella's help whenever she was in trouble before? I know Miss Stella is important to you, and I'm not that clueless to stop you from helping your friend." "Why you..." Melody becmore impassioned as she spoke, "Don't worry, I have a very clear understanding of where I stand. Can you let go ofnow? There's no one else here but us, so there's no need for us to put on a lovey- dovey act." Lucas gripped her chin. "Getting sharper and more eloquent now, are we? At the end of the day, you just want to get rid ofso that you can spend stalone with Sherman! After all, how can you possibly get into his car without worrying if I'm around?"

"What right do you have to your personal space? Don't forget, everything you have now is because of me. Think about the situation you would be in if it weren't for me! So you better drop your self- righteous attitude when talking to me!" Melody opened his hand angrily and forcefully. "I know all of that very well. There's no need to remindover and over again!" Lucas leaned closer to her face. "I'm glad to hear that! Until your debts are cleared, please adhere to the role of a faithful wife and don't get too close to other men." Melody glared defiantly back at Lucas' condescending gaze. "And what about you? You demand this of me, but how do you plan to handle your relationship with Miss Stella?" Lucas seemed to have a sudden realization. He chuckled with amusement. "Wait, are you jealous?" Melody's cheeks reddened. She then frowned and avoided his gaze while her hands balled into fists. "You're overthinking. Why would I be jealous?" "Then why can't you look at me? Lift your head. Look atwhen you speak!" Just as Melody was thinking about escaping, Beatrice happened to call.
Lucas instantly put on a neutral expression and said, "It's Grandma. Be quiet." He released Melody and walked to the window to answer the phone.
Melody sighed in relief.
Every second near Lucas kept her nerves on edge. His every word and action tugged at her emotions, yet he remained unaffected and completely self-contained. Melody disliked this side of herself.
