Melody was being shaken by her collar, but she calmly replied, "Look at yourself. You're acting like a madwoman. Where did the well-bred Miss Wendy Sander go? No matter how much you push us, he'll only love me. That reality must be driving you even crazier."

Melody hit the nail on the head with what mattered most to Wendy. Wendy felt it was unfair. Why would Lucas be attracted to Melody, who had nothing? What did he see in her? She had thought that kicking her out of the family would ruin her life and finally give her relief from years of resentment. She never imagined that Melody would meet Lucas and that Lucas would actually fall in love with her!

"Don't tell me you think I'm jealous of you, do you? Why would I be jealous of you? Your own mom doesn't even love you! You're no different than an orphan since both your mom and dad don't love you! Do you really think Lucas loves you? He's only after your looks. Once he sees your battered face, he'll naturally run away from you. Do you think you're so special to him? There are plenty of beautiful actresses in the entertainment industry, so don't think too highly of yourself!"

Wendy burst into laughter. "You're nothing but a pathetic creature begging for love. Well you should know you'll never get it! I'm going to send these photos to Lucas now. Let's see if he's really like I said, or if he loves you like you think."

Melody's throat tightened, and she swallowed hard. 'Lucas should be able to track my location once Wendy sends him the message, right?'

The atmosphere on Lucas' end was as cold as ice. He would never have left Melody alone in the hospital if he knew Wendy had not given up on taking revenge against Melody.

'This is all my fault!' he thought with regret. 'Why do I always regret things when it's too late?'

"Can we track where they went?" Lucas asked as he looked at the screen showing the license plate number they had found.

"It's a fake number plate. They disappeared after leaving the city," Edmund replied while leading several other technicians to frantically search for information.

All of them had their hearts hanging

in their throats. They still did not know where Melody was and Lucas was already on the verge of a

breakdown. They were sure he ne Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

would definitely go crazy if

something were to happen to Melody.

Meanwhile, Lucas had already Lucas submitted the relevant information to the police station, and the officers were working overtime to keep an eye on the situation. However, since it had not been 24 hours yet, they could not officially file a case.

A new message popped up, and Lucas glanced at it impatiently, but what he saw almost made him lose his composure. In the image, Melody's hands and feet were bound rendering her unable to move. There were also two bright red handprints on her face while blood was seeping from the corner of her mouth. It was obvious she had gone through quite an ordeal.

Wendy did not even bother hiding her identity as she tauntingly asked, [Do you still love Melody when she looks like this?]

Lucas gripped his phone tightly. He took a deep breath before forwarding the picture to Edmund with the instruction asking him to track the location.

[Be quick about it.]

Edmund and the others all gasped at the sight of the photo. Who would dare to harm Melody like that? Why would someone be so cruel?

[What do you want? Money or something else?]

Lucas quickly typed out this message and sent it to Wendy.

Meanwhile, Edmund and the others were racing against time to find clues about Melody's whereabouts through the photo.
