Lucas frowned and stepped in front of Melody. "Have you not learned your lesson from last time? Is that why you dare to appear before us again, shamelessly spreading rumors?" Confronted by the imposing figure of the man, Wendy could not help but tremble. However, the thought of such a fine man willingly acting as Melody's lackey made her feel disgusted.

Aren't you afraid she'll harm your grandparents?" Wendy's words puzzled Melody. She could not understand how Wendy concluded that she was someone who would neglect the elders in the family. However, the depth of Wendy's hatred toward her was evident in her words.
Even with Lucas standing in front of her, Melody could not resist firing back, "Miss Wendy, don't you think you're perhaps meddling a bit too much? What does my relationship with the Riveras have anything to do with you? You're definitely sticking your nose where it doesn't belong." Jealousy churned inside Wendy. 'How dare this despicable woman keep referring to the Riveras as if they're close? Isn't she afraid of getting herself into trouble?' "You have snerve to act like the Riveras are your real family when you've abandoned your real mother. If I were your mother and knew I'd give birth to such a heartless and ungrateful girl, I would've suffocated you in your crib!" Melody rolled her eyes tically. Helen might have actually considered doing that back then. After all, she desired a boy so much but ended up with her.
Melody could only attribute it to her good fortune that she was able to survive. However, none of these could justify Wendy's attacks on her.
"Enough with your baseless accusations. We have nothing to talk about. Unlike you, I have better things to do than to stalk someone," Melody retorted, further provoking Wendy.

"Who said I'm stalking you? Don't flatter yourself too much. I'm just feeling sorry for your mother! I pity her for giving birth to a daughter like you. She might as well have given birth to a psychopath! My dad and I always visit her, but she only ever thinks about you. Yet you refuse to see her even once. And when you finally do, you bring along so many reporters! I just can't understand it. How much twould it take for you to visit her once? Haven't you finished shooting your movie already? Can't you spare even a tiny bit of tfor your mother? Seeing you every day might help her recover faster!"
Melody exchanged a glance with Lucas. Even if they were slow on the uptake, they had grasped the gist of Wendy's wordsped words. Sath the FindNøv l.n't website on Gøøgl" to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Implicitly and explicitly, Wendy was painting Melody as a heartless and Lom unfilial daughter. However, the reality was far from what she described, especially since Wendy had not visited Helen herself.
"Sorry, but if you're really going to be so stubborn about this, then I'll have to talk ssense into you. When was the last tyou visited her? Even if you're standing here blocking me, have you even stepped into her hospital ward to see her? And as for Ethan, besides bringing her to this hospital, when has he ever visited? He's not even willing to send her to a better hospital. What are you all doing? You're letting her wait here in the middle of nowhere to die!" X
