"There's no one more ungrateful than Melody. Wendy has always treated her well when they were kids, and now she turns around and stabs her own family in the back?!"

Ethan, unlike his earlier stance of staying out of Melody's affairs, stood up and headed to the room upon hearing Wendy was in trouble. He needed to change clothes to go bail out his precious daughter. Helen followed him silently. 'Couldn't that stubborn girl stay out of trouble? Why did she keep getting into so much trouble?'

Helen frowned, feeling tired of all the trouble Melody brought into their lives. She had already been through a lot in this family, and Melody's repeated antics were just adding to her frustration.

When Melody opened her eyes, they were already near the police station.

"Are you up? We need to give a statement," said Lucas softly, reaching out to brush her hair from her forehead.

"Yeah, okay..." Melody's gaze shifted as she nodded. She knew she had to cooperate with the police investigation.

"How was your nap just now? Feeling any better?" Lucas asked in a low voice as he helped her sit up.

Melody's cheeks were imprinted with faint marks from sleeping. Though she did not sleep for long, she did feel a lot more energized, especially with Lucas beside her. No nightmares came to her at all. "Yeah, I slept really well," said Melody lightly.

Every time she just up, she had this endearingly groggy look to her. Lucas could not help but reach out and pinch her cheek.

"Remember, you're the victim in this matter. There's no need to try to find fault in yourself. Just go in there and tell the truth, understand?" asked Lucas.

Melody nodded. She knew that if Wendy had not harbored ill intentions, she would not have suffered, let alone come close to a situation where it could not be reversible. Thus, she would not go soft on Wendy anymore. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I'll go in with you. Let's go." Lucas extended a hand to Melody.

She felt like he radiated a glow, dispelling all the gloom in front of her as if he were an angel guiding her forward.

Melody gently placed her hand in his, and he quickly closed his hand over hers.

Lucas remained with her throughout the entire process of recording the statement. His face gradually darkened at Melody's recounting of her experiences.

After completing the statement, Lucas took Melody out, intending to take her home to rest. However, before they could even leave the police station, they heard a commotion near the entrance. Lucas frowned and called Edmund over. "What's going on at the entrance?"
