S21 2. Melanie Harper
Everyone was stunned, even the twins. Their eyeballs shook, looking for an explanation.
“Mommy? Is that witch really our grandmother?” Louis whispered.
Emily quickly hushed. Her index finger was extended in front of her pursed lips. “Watch
your mouth, Louis.”
Meanwhile, Kara let out a faint sigh. Without waiting for orders, she took the twins from
Frank’s arms. “Come here, Little Bees.”
Frank handed over the two toddlers with a blank gaze. His face was a little pale. When he
straightened up again, Melanie immediately hugged him.
“Sorry, I only saw you now. I didn’t know that your grandfather had died. I shouldn’t let
you face everything alone. That must be really hard for you.”
Frank’s breath hitched. His chest felt tight instead of warm. Gritting his teeth, he lowered
his mother’s hands from him.
“I am not alone. I am with my family-the people who’re always by my side, the people who
never left me. What do you want, Mom? Why do you come here after all this time?”
Melanie put some wrinkles on her face. Her tears thickened. “Are you still angry because I
left you?”
After a long breath, Melanie looked down and slowly shook her head.” I thought you’d
understand when you got older. Apparently not?” She lifted her gaze slightly.
Taking a deep breath, Frank looked the other way. He didn’t want to be taken in by his
mother’s drama.

“Kara, bring the kids in. I’ll follow soon.”
“At that time,” Melanie interrupted, absorbing all of their attention, “I didn’t have any
other choice. Your father died, my status was questioned, and my family’s company fell
down. Was there a reason to stay when your grandfather no longer liked me? He thought I
wasn’t worthy to be by your side. He called me a burden and a bringer of bad luck to your
father.”
The atmosphere suddenly froze. The ice was only broken when Frank snorted sarcastically.

Grandpa?”
Shaking his head, Frank laughed bitterly. “Everything is clearer now. Our relationship is
just status. You are my mother and I am your son. Nothing else. There is no love, care, or
meaningful impression.”
“No, Frank. It is not like that. I love you. A mother could never hate her child. It is just….”
Melanie stopped as if choked with pain. “I thought you could get a better life if you stayed
with your grandpa. Besides, it’s impossible for me to take you away too. Your grandfather
will not stay still.”
Frank’s gaze turned cold. His tone dropped drastically. “Do you know how hard it was for
Kara to stay by my side? She struggled so hard to change Grandpa’s view of her. Yet, no
matter what happened, she still held my hand. Why weren’t you like that? You easily let go
of my hand.
Melanie exhaled heavily. Her shoulders dropped further. “I am sorry, Son. I am really
sorry.”
“If you’re really sorry, why haven’t you visited me? You’re having too much fun with your
new family, huh?”
Melanie gasped. Her eyes dimmed. “You know that? Did you secretly

Frank fell silent. His chest rose and fell to match his breathing. He had leaked wrong
information.
Suddenly, Melanie grabbed his hand and shed tears. “Thank you,
Frank. Thank you because you still care about me. I never stop thinking about you, Son.”
“That’s right.” A girl behind Melanie stepped forward. Her expression seemed indifferent.
“Almost every time, Mom always says your name. Maybe from the outside, she looks fine.
However, her heart is
suffering. Mom always missed you, but she didn’t have enough courage to meet you, until
now. Therefore, please forgive and accept her back, Brother.”
The call deepened the wrinkles on Frank’s brows. He didn’t know the girl well. He had only
seen photos of her from the spy. All he knew, was that she was ten years younger than
him, and a part of his heart could not accept that he had a half-sister.
Frank snorted. “Even if I forgive her, everything that has passed cannot be changed. The
bond between us is that fragile.”
“Give me a chance to fix everything, Son,” Melanie nodded hopefully. ” Please …, allow me
to stay with you. Your grandfather is gone. Nothing can separate us anymore. We could
spend more time together, Frank.”
Kara and Philip quietly exchanged glances. Their common sense detected the same thing.
However, neither of them dared to say it.
“What about your new husband? He doesn’t mind?” Frank raised eyebrow.
Melanie gasped slightly. However, as quickly as possible, she changed her expression into
helpless.

Melanie was silent for a moment. Her eyes looked deeply at Frank.
“Yes,” she answered, sounding sincere. “I always want to be back with you, Son. But I also
couldn’t leave my new family. Every day feels like torture for me.”
With a look of resignation, Melanie turned to her daughter. “Recently, since the company
went sour, Barbara’s father started to show the true side of him. I realized that it was a
punishment for a mother who had put her son second. I don’t want to be selfish anymore,
Frank. I want to make it up to you.”
Frank’s mouth was pressed tightly. His jaw throbbed to match the clashes in his mind.
Frank knew that the excuse was completely false. Melanie must be after something else.
However, what could he do? As a son, he would be disobedient if he refused his mother’s
wishes.
