Nander sighed softly and dropped his casual smile. When the others left the hospital, they all went their separate ways, leaving only the two of them in the villa. Xander lowered his gaze and looked at Melanie with a flash of pity in his eyes. 

“Don’t worry too much. Things will get better,” he said gently. 

Melanie pierced the piece of steak with her fork. It had been perfectly cooked. She lowered her gaze and stared at the steak as she asked in a low voice, “Do you think I can win this time?” 

“Yes,” Nander replied without hesitation. 

Melanie looked up at him and asked, “Are you just trying to comfort me?” 

“Yes, but not entirely,” Xander met Melanie’s eyes solemnly. “Melanie, you need to know that you were right from the beginning, so you won’t lose.” 

Melanie was quiet for a moment but then finally said, “But Dylan jumped off the building. Am I too stubborn?” 

She had been like a dog on a bone. It was why Dylan pretended to be crazy and jumped off the building, Melanie could not help but feel suffocated when she thought about Dylan kneeling in that contorted position, banging her head against the railing. 

Dylan had constantly asked her if she was satisfied. Melanie felt like a heavy stone was pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe. She had been trying to suppress her emotions since leaving the hospital, fearing that she would collapse. 

Dylan’s manic appearance had actually terrified Melanie. 

Sitting across from her, Xander could clearly see the confusion and pain in Melanie’s eyes. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he said, “Melanie, you’re indeed a stubborn person, but you’re also very 

brave,” 

He thought for a moment and said, “Your grandfather would be very pleased to see you like this.” 

Melanie’s hand that was gripping the fork suddenly trembled. She lowered her head and looked at the pasta on the plate. She bit her lip tightly. 

She felt unwell. She had barely taken a few bites of her food before going upstairs to rest. Even then, she could not sleep. She decided to search for more cases Luther had previously handled on her phone. At around 4:00 pm, she received a message. 

Yvette had created a group chat at some point, with Eric and several others part of it. The message was from Eric, who specifically tagged Melanie: [Mr. Lowe’s plane is at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning. Are you going to the airport?] 

Seeing the message, Melanie was quiet for a moment before replying: [Yeah].

She had discussed with Eugene about going to the airport to pick up Jackson: It was not something that could be delayed, especially since it was part of her job at Burning Star Studio. 

Melanie pinched her temples and then got up to pack her luggage. There was not much to pack as her suitcase had almost gone untouched since she brought it back 

The flight was at seven o’clock in the evening, Melanie dragged her luggage downstairs. She coincidentally bumped into Oliver and the others, who were returning, 

“Are you going over tonight?” Reny asked, 

“Yeah, Jackson will arrive at the airport tomorrow morning,” 

“Have the boss take you. It’s dark outside now, and it won’t be easy to get a taxi,” 

Melanie’s phone rang just then, and it was Eugene calling, 

“The flight is at seven o’clock tonight,” he said,  sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Melanie did not reply and just waited for him to say what he wanted to say next. 

“Lee will go pick you up. We should discuss the matter regarding Jackson Lowe again,” he said, his voice cold and deep.
