Chapter 39: Who Did You Fancy?
Chapter 39: Who Did You Fancy?
Melody came out of the alley and was about to get her motorcycle.
Suddenly, a red BMW Z4 drove towards her and stopped beside her.
Melody knew that the car was coming for her, so she glanced at it.
Then, the car stopped steadily beside her, which revealed Sarah's smiling face.
"Little Melody, are you surprised to see me?" Sarah asked.
'Surprised?' Melody asked herself.
'I was more frightened than surprised!' she screamed through her mind.
Melody lowered her eyes and looked at Sarah indifferently.
Her cold face didn't have any warmth at all even though she was talking to her sister.
Even if her attitude had always been cold, Sarah didn't seem to mind at all.
She was as enthusiastic as ever.
She waved at Melody excitedly and said, "Melody, I guess it's your first time studying here.You don't even have someone to eat lunch with yet, right? I used to study here too.I knew that there was a super delicious restaurant nearby, so I specially came to take you there.Let's go."
Melody originally planned to skip class in the afternoon, since the classes were indeed a little boring.But Sarah's sudden appearance ruined her plan.Sarah didn't even wait for Melody to answer.She had already taken the initiative to get out of the car and opened the door for her and pushed her into the car.
"Melody, you don't have to be shy.I will treat you and will let you have a good meal!" Sarah said confidently.
"Let's go, let's go!" Sarah added.
Sarah had a sweet and bright smile on her face, which was so dazzling under the sunlight.
Melody looked at her and couldn't quite understand her.
Sarah was the one who received the worst treatment in the Sullivan Family, but there were no signs of sadness on her.
There seemed to be a warm feeling that she always emitted that made people listen to her requests and subconsciously made them approach her.
The restaurant was indeed not far from the school as Sarah said.
After Sarah brought Melody through the door, she gave Melody a warm introduction about the restaurant, "The dishes served here are not only delicious, it feeds your eyes as well since the dishes are exquisite"
Melody didn't pay much attention to Sarah's endless speech because she noticed the two people sitting at a table in the corner the moment she entered the shop.
Iven was talking to Seth about the latest financial report when Seth suddenly looked a little weird, his eyes were glued in a certain direction.
Ilven immediately noticed that something was wrong and looked in the direction of Seth's gaze and saw Melody which he didn't expect.
"Is she the black sheep of the Sullivan family..."
Before lven could finish his sentence, his face instantly twisted.
Then, he gritted his teeth and let out a muffled sound, pain was written all over his face.
Melody glanced at them indifferently and then looked away.
She thought that people she was unfamiliar with weren't worthy of her time so she ignored them.
It was not easy for Iven to recover from the pain he suddenly suffered from.
He then searched through his memory and finally remembered the girl Seth was looking at.
Seeing that she was about to enter the private room, he quickly shouted, "Melody..."
This time, not only Melody and Sarah's attention was caught.
Everyone stared at Iven curiously.
Sarah looked back and found out that it was lven who called her sister.
Ilven was not a stranger to her so she immediately smiled and said.
"The second son of the Adams family, what are you doing here?!"
After that, she enthusiastically went over to where lven was. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
But she didn't go by herself, she naturally dragged Melody along.
When Iven saw that Melody was too cold and didn't give him any attention, he focused his attention on Sarah.
"Sarah, what a coincidence.Are you here to eat lunch as well?" lven asked.
Sarah was two years younger than Iven and although California was big and many people resided there, there were only a few families who stood on top.
That's why it wasn't strange that Sarah and Iven knew each other.
"It's indeed a coincidence.My sister goes to Sanguine, and this is her first day so I brought her here for lunch: "Let's go together then!"
As soon as Iven warmly invited them, Seth and Melody frowned.
The only one who was happy was probably Sarah.
She smiled and nodded, "Okay, your table is big and there are only two of you so it wouldn't be a bother for you if we join you, right?"
Sarah sat down, so Melody naturally sat down as well since her sister already decided to eat here.
Melody looked at Seth, who was sitting without moving next to her.
He scratched his cheeks with one hand, his eyebrows were as sharp as swords, and his eyes were like stars that glimmered.
He was wearing a black shirt embroidered with dark patterns.
His collar was open to the second button, revealing a piece of his bronze-colored skin that seemed to be so sexy and attractive.
'This man knew how to dress, he was full of charm!' Melody thought as she looked at Seth.
"Little Melody!"
Sarah raised her voice a little, and Melody slowly turned her head to look at her.
Melody was usually cold and indifferent, so Sarah didn't find anything strange and proceeded to ask her warmly, "Melody, do you have anything you want to eat? There's a menu here.
Take a look' Melody glanced at the electronic menu and swiped through two pages lazily before she put it down.
"Anything!" she remarked with her lazy voice.
Considering that Melody had just returned from the countryside, Sarah felt that she probably didn't know much about these dishes, so she decided to help her order.
"Alright, I'll order some for you then." She still said warmly.
After Sarah ordered two or three dishes, a male voice suddenly came out and interrupted her.
"Boiled Seafood!"
All of a sudden, all three of them had their eyes on Seth.
Iven didn't expect that Seth would take the initiative to order dishes.
Every time they ate out, it was always him who ordered the dishes according to his taste.
He actually took the initiative to order today.
Plus, Seth had never liked to eat heavy dishes.
So why did he order a dish, not to his liking such as boiled seafood? Sarah was stunned as well when Seth suddenly spoke up.
She knew Seth, but she had never interacted with him before.
The aura around him was terrifying, so after she sat down, she didn't speak to him.
She heard that this Harrison Family's young heir didn't like to interact with other people.
After all these years, other than Iven, she had never heard of anyone Seth was close with.
Now that she heard him order, Sarah hurriedly nodded and added, "Another boiled seafood!"
Melody glanced at Seth and thought that this man was sharp.
She knew that this dish was ordered for her.
She liked to eat something with a heavy taste.
What Sarah ordered just now were all light dishes.
Since Sarah always said everything she pleased, Melody would always leave everything to her and didn't worry about it.
She didn't know Seth noticed her strangeness, that's why he ordered a portion of boiled seafood.
Melody was very quiet when she ate.
Well, even if she wasn't eating she was quiet.
Seth didn't speak as well and to not make the situation too awkward, Sarah and Iven took up the responsibility of chatting.
The four of them couldn't just bury their heads in their meals and not communicate at all.
As they chatted, they talked about Seth and Melody.
Iven joked and said, "Sarah, in the future, will we become half in-laws from a relationship that we didn't expect to have.Don't you agree?"
Sarah was stunned for a moment and did not react immediately.
'In-laws?' what was he talking about, she asked herself.
'Why in-laws? Who did lven take a fancy to suddenly call her an in-law?'
'Could it be?' her eyes suddenly widened in shock.
