Hearing Melanie’s word, steve hurriedly explained, “Mela, your mother has been dead for more than ten years. It’s time to put it down.
“Didn’t you and Tracy get along well all these years?
“Did your grandfather say something to you?
“I can guarantee that Tracy and Vanessa will never do anything to hurt you.”
Melanie laughed coldly.
She was so ang77 +
she almost didn’t know how to retort.
*Can you guarantee? What about me? What am I to you? What was my mother to you when you told me to put her down?” Melanie questioned.
“Of course you are my daughter, too!” said Steve.
“Enough!” Melanie shouted.
She couldn’t keep calm any longer.
“Seven years ago, you broke off your relationship with me. Today, I don’t want anymore!

my
father
“Tracy, Vanessa, I won’t let you go.
“You better have nothing to do with my mother’s death, or I will make you pay!”
“Melanie, you’re crazy!” Tracy screamed.
The noise in the living room had already alarmed the servants, who were looking into the living
room now.
It was now dark.
The street lamps were just lighting up.
It was like that night seven years ago.
However, Melanie could only see darkness and hear the sound of cars roaring in her ears.
As Melanie walked on, the anger in her heart gradually dissipated, transforming into a dense fog of sorrow that permeated deep into her being.
The long–forgotten childhood memories surged up her heart as if they possessed a life of their own. Vivid scenes from her past flashed through her mind.
In Melanie’s recollection, Sherry was characterized by her habit of observing birds as she strolled and listening to the whispers of the wind before drifting off to sleep. She adored all living creatures and never deliberately harmed a flower or ant.
But at this moment, what Melanie remembered was the anomaly of her mother sobbing secretly behind her back.
Sherry used to teach Melanie how to draw. Sometimes, Sherry would suddenly ask, “Have remembered Grandpa’s address and phone number? Say it to Mommy again.
e you
When Melanie finished telling the address and number correctly, Sherry would kiss Melanie on the cheek and praise her.
Then came Melanie’s eighth birthday, an unforgettable one.
Shortly after that day, Sherry was sick, and then she became ashes in a wooden box.
On the
same day. Tracy moved in with Vanessa.
After that, Steve spoiled Vanessa, but Tracy defended Melanie all the time.
Melanie was grateful that she had another wonderful mother..
For the whole ten years, Melanie had recognized her enemy as her mother!
Thinking of this, Melanie slapped herself hard.
She didn’t believe it.
She didn’t believe that Tracy was as innocent as she said.
Melanie must find out who killed Sherry and the truth about Sherry’s sudden death.
Melanie must expose Steve’s true face and see what he had done,
Melanie staggered along.
The vehicles around her roared by with shrill whistles.
Melanie’s heart was filled with pain and regret.
Suddenly, she stumbled, twisting her ankle and colliding with what felt like a solid wall.
Then Melanie had a blackout.
When Melanie woke up again, she smelled the disinfectant unique to the hospital and saw a white ward.
Melanie thought, ‘I must have fajnted and been sent to the hospital by some kind–hearted person.
Melanie looked sideways and saw her handbag on the table beside her. She took her phone out and found hundreds of missed calls and messages.
She ignored the unknown calls and called Angie.
Before Melanie could speak, Angie said first, “Melanie, you were not in the Robertson residence. Where have you been? Gary was going to call the police.”
“I’m fine. Let’s talk about the rest later,” said Melanie.
Then Melanie asked, “Where are the babies?”
They are all here, screaming to go find you,” Angie said.
“I’ll be right back. Keep an eye on them,” said Melanie.
As Melanie said that, she pulled off the needle in her vein and left.
As soon as Melanie left, Roderick entered the ward.
Seeing the empty bed, Roderick asked coldly, “Where is she?”
A nurse came and panicked when she saw the empty ward. “She was there just now. I was just absent for a moment, the nurse explained.
Seeing this, Richard got furious. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Mr. Lambert told you to take good care of her. Where is the person you are taking care of?” Richard asked.
“Fire her,” Roderick said coldly and left quickly.
As soon as Roderick left the ward, another man in a white coat came to him.
“Where are you going, Roderick? Didn’t you ask me to check someone’s eyes?” Michael asked.
Roderick glanced at Michael coldly and walked out without saying a word.
“What’s wrong with you? I have an operation over there. You called me here anxiously. Why are you leaving so soon?
“What’s wrong with the silence?”
Michael stamped his feet in anger and saw the nurse sobbing in the ward.
“Dr. Gibson, please tell Mr. Lambert not to fire me.”
“You said you didn’t take good care of Mr. Lambert’s girlfriend?” Michael asked.
He looked confused.
“Yeah,” the nurse replied.
“What girl? What’s her name?” Michael asked.
“I don’t know. She was sent by Mr. Lambert last night. I heard that she couldn’t see anything,” the nurse said.
Michael was shocked when he heard this.
His gaping mouth was wide open in utter shock.
Roderick’s girlfriend couldn’t see! She had intermittent blindness!
“Roderick, I thought you said you were allergic to women. Now someone can finally cure you!” Michael seemed to be gloating.
Michael no longer cared about his surgery and hummed a song proudly.
Then he took out his phone and soon spread the news that Roderick had a woman.
Within a minute, Roderick’s phone rang repeatedly.
Roderick ignored the calls and went straight to Rising Star.
“Mr. Lambert, she’s not there. I don’t have her phone number or address,” Richard said.
He had checked the company but didn’t find Melanie.
Seeing this, Bill said hurriedly, “Mr. Lambert, Ms. Robertson is not an ordinary woman. I’m afraid our abrupt approach might lead to undesired results.”
“What?” Roderick frowned and said, “Go ahead.”
“As far as I know, Ms. Robertson doesn’t know you at all.
“You are a stranger to her.
“If you really like her, you should find an opportunity to get to know her first and then get closer to her step by step,” Bill said.
“Do I like her?” Roderick frowned and asked.
Hearing this, Bill smiled consciously.
“I was wrong. You don’t like her, but you just want to find out why you are not allergic to her, Bill explained.
Richard was winking at Bill.
“How can Mr. Lambert like anyone casually? When Mr. Lambert finds the antidote to his allergy, it will be easy for him to get any woman!” Richard echoed.
“Shut up,” Roderick scolded coldly.
Richard immediately stopped talking and looked at Bill.
The two of them secretly exchanged their looks, and only
knew what they meant.
If Roderick didn’t like Melanie, why did he look for her for seven years?
Suddenly, Roderick’s phone rang again.
Roderick glanced at it and picked it up reluctantly.
Sat, 2 val
“Hello, Grandpa…” Roderick said.
Geoffrey Lambert, Roderick’s grandfather, said, “Roddy, I heard from Michael that you took a girl to the hospital last night. What was going on?”
“Nothing serious,” Roderick replied.
“What do you mean by nothing?” Geoffrey asked.
Over the phone, Geoffrey got excited.
“I heard from Michael that the girl couldn’t see. What happened?” Geoffrey asked anxiously.
Roderick remained silent.
“What’s wrong with you?
“It doesn’t matter even if the girl can’t see.
“We can find a way to cure her.
“Bring her back and let me see what kind of girl she is. Okay?” Geoffrey said.
Hearing this, Roderick hung up the phone silently.
However, his phone kept ringing.
Roderick pinched his glabella helplessly.
“Please inform Zack that the Vision Museum will be placing a high bid on a piece of artwork at the upcoming spring auction.”
“Okay, I’ll do it right away.”
