Exerting all her strength, Melanie ran forward. She knew things were not going to be easy the moment Viola pushed open the
door to the private room. That was why she had been conserving her energy, waiting for the right moment.
If she had confronted Viola and Quentin in the private room from the beginning, she would have definitely been at a
