Chapter 316 I’ll Be Relying On You

Melody and the others stayed with Wendy for a while longer.

Wendy did not have much patience for Melody, she was just using the woman to get closer to Byron. Now that

her goal had been achieved and Byron was in her room, she wanted nothing more than to get rid of those

pesky elders. Despite her impatience, she had to keep playing the good girl.

“You’re so badly hurt, Wendy. You should stay in bed for a few days and leave everything to Byron.”

Melody sat by her bed and touched her shoulder encased in plaster, looking devastated.

Wendy was propped up in bed, and she responded to Melody’s concern with a fake smile. “I got it. Thank you

for your concern, Auntie. I’ll be careful. But...”

She pretended to glance at the man standing by the door before pursuing her lips. “I’m happy enough to have

Byron here with me. I can’t trouble him any more than that.”

Melody finally looked back at her son. when she saw how far away he was standing, she berated him, “why

are you standing all the way over there? Wendy’s a girl, and I’m sure she feels a little shy. You should stay at

the hospital to take care of her, and pay her more attention, you hear? If there’s anything she’s too shy to ask

from you, you should take the initiative to help her.”

Byron frowned and did not immediately reply.

Wendy pretended to feel hurt, all the while defending him on the surface. “Auntie, Byron’s really busy with

work. He should rest after his work day, so please don’t trouble him. I don’t need him to take care of me either.

I can take care of myself.”

Melody’s anger subsided slightly when she saw how thoughtful Wendy was being.

Just then, Wendy acted as though she was uncomfortable in bed, so she instinctively tried to prop herself up.

However, she seemed to forget that her arm was in a cast, and she hissed in pain as soon as her arm touched

the bed.

“Be careful, Wendy!” Magdalene hastily helped her up, her expression filled with pain and blame for her

daughter.

Wendy gave her mother a comforting smile. “I’m fine, Mom. I’m just not very used to it. See, I could’ve sat up

using my good arm, I just forgot for a moment.”

She then touched her arm in the cast gingerly, while her gaze was always silently trained on Melody.

Melody was moved by her plight to begin with. The thought that life would be so inconvenient for Wendy with

her injury filled her with a sense of guilt and pain. “Don’t force yourself around me, Wendy. Byron will take care

of you for now. He already promised to, so you don’t have to feel bad. I’m sure you’ll feel bored in the hospital,

so I’ll come visit you when I can too.”

Wendy acted surprised, then she gave Byron a timid look.

Byron knew what his mother was like. She was determined to have him stay with Wendy, so he would not

waste any time arguing with her. He agreed softly, saying, “Work isn’t too heavy lately, so I can take care of

her. Besides, you got hurt to save my mother. It’s only right that I repay the favor.”

Melody nodded, satisfied. “See, Byron said so himself. Don’t worry about it.”

Wendy smiled at him gratefully. “In that case, I’ll be relying on you.”

Secretly, though, she gritted her teeth in frustration.

Byron had promised to take care of her here, but he also emphsasized that he only did it because she had

saved Melody. In other words, it had nothing to do with him personally!

Was he that determined to stay away from her?!
