NovelEnglishChapter 1491:
“I stuck to the script,” Kate admitted, her brow pinched with regret. “He’s giving us the money for our daughter's
house, but he wants nothing more to do with me.”
“So how do you feel about that?” Franco pressed.
“I really can’t say.” Uncertainty filled her face. “Part ofwants to make up for everything, but after all these

Seeing the tight restraint on Melvin’s face, Jessica reached for his arm. “Hug?”
Melvin stopped in his tracks. Before he could react, she wrapped her arms around him.
“I'll always love you.” Her voice was gentle, carrying warmth just for him. “I'll give you everything I've got.”
Slowly, he lifted his arms and hugged her back. In that moment, the ache in his chest began to ease.
