"No, no, it's not like that..." Wendy's mouth twitched a couple of times. "It's a misunderstanding. You must've misunderstood! Maybe Melody said something in the heat of the moment, but don't take it seriously! I am her sister, you know, and it's normal for sisters to have occasional disagreements." Melody had long seen through Wendy's intentions. Unfortunately for her, while Wendy was interested in Lucas, he was not interested in her.
'We occasionally have disagreements as sisters?' thought Melody incredulously.
In the past, if they fought over a toy, Helen would not even ask and just let Melody give in to Wendy. Over the years, Melody had gotten used to it, but unfortunately for Wendy, Lucas was a living person and she would never again hand over her beloved to someone just because Wendy wanted it.

"Mister Lucas, what do you mean by that? I haven't provoked you, so there's no need for you to insult me," Wendy retorted.
"Miss Wendy, perhaps you should ask your conscience whether or not you feel guilty for saying these things. I'm not a fool either. Do you think I'd believe Melody's words or yours?"

Your words are my command!" said Melody.
Lucas glanced at her, fully aware that she was trying to avoid upsetting him. However, he was not really angry; he only felt concern for her.
"Oh please, do you think I'll believe you again? You might've been hurt by her again if I hadn't rushed over." Melody felt genuinely guilty. "How was I supposed to know she'd suddenly lunge at me? She seemed perfectly calm when we were talking... And, by the way, don't blMister Shaun and the others. They've already checked her bag this tto make sure there wasn't anything else in it before letting us meet, and we were in such an open space." Lucas scoffed. Of course he knew all that. Otherwise, he would not have let them off the hook.
