Lucas lost his patience upon hearing Melody's irritated response. "What you and Thalia said that day were completely different. I believe you, in front of so many people, but I'll have to wait until you find

evidence before you can give everyone an explanation."

"I only have one thing to say, I did not touch her at all that day!"

To Lucas, Melody's attitude meant that there was no way to communicate.

He did not want to continue arguing with Melody. No matter what he said, it would be meaningless.

Melody felt even worse seeing him persistently speaking up for Thalia.

Neither of them said another word for the rest of the journey.

Knowing that they were coming home, Beatrice and Cedric waited at the door in advance. She was overjoyed to see Melody coming back.

However, it seemed there was tension between Lucas and Melody. The expressions on their faces were cold, and they did not even make eye contact.

Beatrice and Cedric looked at each other, and it seemed that they had to tell Lucas and Melody what Thalia had done as soon as possible. Otherwise, the misunderstanding between them would not come to an end.

"Welcome back! How was the traffic?"

Melody forced a smile and said, "Eh, it was alright, Grandma."

"Good to hear." Beatrice helped Melody inside and said to Lucas behind Melody, "I asked Lucas to bring you back today because there is something I have to tell you.

"It is an important matter, so both of you have to be here. Had it not been important, I wouldn't have asked you to return, you see."

Melody did not know what she was going to say. "Grandma, even if you didn't have Lucas take me home today, I'd still make time to come back."

"That's right. Your dormitory on the set is temporary, and your real home is here." Beatrice patted the back of Melody's hand, feeling very satisfied.

However, even though what Beatrice wanted to say was very important, she still insisted on making sure the two of them were fed before talking about it. She wanted to prevent them from losing their appetite after hearing such unpleasant things.

Melody was fine with the arrangement, but Lucas frowned as though deep in his thoughts.

"If it's important, Grandma, then you can tell me now. Thalia's situation is not stable yet, and I'll have to visit."

Beatrice's expression darkened. She used to work alongside Cedric in the business world when she was younger, so she had a stronger aura than regular elderly ladies.

"There are nurses in the hospital, are there not? You do not have to worry about that."

"I am just wary. After all, she..."

Lucas took a deep look at Melody. Melody looked down at the tip of her nose but did not look at him. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Even though the matter between them had not yet been resolved, Lucas had already assumed that Melody did it.

There was nothing more to say.

"Why? It's because this woman is too greedy. She was staying well in Molomia. If she didn't come back, how could these things happen? Don't forget, Melody sprained her leg because of this woman! Why don't you care more about your wife?"

Lucas lowered his head under Beatrice's pressure, unwilling to talk back.

Melody took a deep breath. She almost forgot that her leg sprain was because of Thalia. Why did Lucas ignore the elephant in the room?

"This is different. I am aware of Melody's injury. However, in Thalia's case, someone intentionally hurt her. She still cannot speak clearly. I promised the Garcia family to take good care of her."

Beatrice saw what was said on the news, but she always believed that Melody would never do such a thing.
