The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2445

"Is there any reason why you can't show up?"

Ethan said nothing. He just felt ashamed to have to go to the police station at such an old age. He would be so embarrassed if anyone caught him at the station. The police officer mused how dysfunctional their family dynamic was.

"Okay, fine. Your call."

Meanwhile, after Lucas sent Melody to the hospital, the hospital quickly treated the wound on the back of Melody's head. Fortunately, it was nothing fatal. "Doctor, why is Melody still unconscious?"

The doctor said to Lucas earnestly, "Mister Lucas, when Miss Melody was admitted to the hospital previously, I told you to pay attention to her mental well-being. Don't you remember?

"I don't major in psychology, you see. I know that Miss Melody's wound isn't serious, so if she hasn't woken up yet, it can only be due to her mental health. Although Miss Melody looks very optimistic and positive, she may have a serious trauma." S~ᴇaʀᴄh the (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The doctor had mentioned Melody's mental state to Lucas more than once. Melody was much more cheerful the last time that she was hospitalized. Lucas did not expect the doctor to bring up her mental health issues again.

He never thought that it could be because of psychological factors that Melody was unwilling to wake up.

"Allow me to take the liberty of asking: What caused the injury on the back of Miss Melody's head?"

Lucas glanced at Melody, who was lying quietly on the bed, and sighed. "She was injured by her mother."

The doctor was greatly surprised. "Mister Lucas, I won't ask any more questions. However, I suggest that you contact a psychiatrist quickly so that Miss Melody can receive timely symptomatic treatment after she wakes up."

Even if the doctor did not remind him, Lucas was going to contact a psychiatrist.

Of course, it would have left a great impact on Melody's mental well-being for her to have lived in such a household for a prolonged period.

Melody deliberately suppressed her issues most of the time. She chose not to talk to others about them and solved these problems silently.

Lucas could not imagine how much Melody had secretly gone through alone, all these years. Helen's assault was probably the last straw that broke her final defense.

Lucas never regretted the slap that he gave Helen, and he even thought he could have slapped her harder. If it were not for the fact that Helen was a woman, he would have beaten Helen until she could not get up.

How could there be such a confused mother in this world who coddled her adopted daughter but turned a blind eye to her biological daughter?

Lucas did not know why she appeared on Melody's set, but he knew very well that she was not here for Melody's good.

If he knew Helen showed up, he would have sent someone to stop her in advance.

This woman, as well as the Sutton family, must be as far away from Melody as possible.

He did not hesitate to speculate on these people with the greatest malice. They had done enough to Melody.

It was unfair to her, but she was asked to shoulder a burden that was not hers.

Lucas stroked the wrinkles between Melody's eyebrows with great distress. He could not help but feel wary.

He did not know how much she had gone through over the years and how many times she had denied herself.

At this moment, Lucas was glad that Melody had become an actress. There were so many strangers who liked Melody from all over the world, which made her feel a lot of support.

To some extent, it made up for Melody's previous lack.

At the same time, Thalia also woke up in the hospital.
