Melody forced a smile. "Really? But why does she seem to know everything about us..." Melody's gaze was piercing as she stared at Lucas. Although his expression changed quickly, she caught a hint of evasion in his eyes.

"Huh, it sounds like you know her quite well too. Don't you think you should've toldwho she is first? She didn't answer me, and you didn't telleither." Lucas frowned, seeming a bit puzzled by Melody's sudden assertive tone. "Thalia is a friend of mine. You'll meet her in the future." Melody wanted to ask more questions, but she saw Lucas pick up his phone and excuse himself to make a call. It did not take much to guess who he was calling, but why was he in such a hurry to call Thalia back? 'Who exactly is Thalia, and why does Lucas care so much about her?' thought Melody.
In their brief conversation, whenever Thalia's nwas mentioned, Lucas' entire demeanor becnoticeably concerned.
Melody had not asked Lucas to give up his friendships with the opposite sex for the sake of their relationship, but she hoped that he could at least explain who Thalia was. 'Or does he feel no need to explain to me?' He seemed like he had forgotten the words he uttered not long ago when he confessed to her. Could all of this be just a dream of hers? Melody sat quietly in the restaurant, observing in silence as Lucas, just a wall away, dialed Thalia's number. She did not know what they were talking about, but Lucas' expression was visibly relaxed. His mouth moved continuously as if he had endless things to say.
'Has he ever talked for such a long twhen we were together? He seems to enjoy chatting with that girl,' Melody could not help but think.
It was not until Lucas hung up the phone that Melody withdrew her gaze, staring back at the cold hotpot in front of her.

Melody nodded, indicating understanding. However, she could not help but ask him in the end, "Who is Thalia? You two..."
Before Melody could finish her question, Lucas interrupted herm "Thalia is currently not in the country. She's just a friend of mine. I hope you don't overthink it." "I'm not overthinking, but have you forgotten that you..."
Melody looked at Lucas, who remained composed while observing her expression. The questions she wanted to ask suddenly felt difficult to voice; she feared the answers Lucas might give would be hard for her to accept. "What? Why did you stop?" Lucas seemed a bit impatient, and Melody did not want to push it further.
It appeared that he had indeed forgotten. It was just a quick trip to the restroom, but it seemed like he had lost all memory. She would not E be surprised that she had been completely pushed to the back of his mind from the moment he received Thalia's call. X
