Chapter 122

Afraid that Melanie would not believe her, Dylan even offered to write up an IOU.

Melanie sat there motionless, feeling a sudden sense of unfamiliarity with Dylan, who was right before

her. The mother in her memories was gentle, beautiful, and strong, but the woman in front of her was

worn–out and had an air of desperation and calculation hung over her.

She looked at Melanie as if she was her last chance at survival. She said in a trembling voice, “Peachie

is your sister too, right?”

Melanie felt as if a nerve in her brain had been severed. She felt suffocated.

Suddenly, footsteps approached them, followed by a man’s warm voice. “Eugene, I’m sorry to trouble

you to come all this way.”

Melanie was stunned. Just as she was about to turn around, she heard Eugene’s cool and serene

voice reply,

“This place was on the way for me anyway.”

Upon turning around, she indeed saw Eugene walking toward her with another man. Eugene seemed

to have noticed her and stopped. His eyebrows furrowed slightly before his gaze landed on Dylan,

who was behind her.

Melanie suddenly felt exposed, her hands slowly clenching. She heard Dylan continue behind her, Mel,

your salary is so high. 5,000 dollars should be an amount you can spare, right? You can’t watch

Peachie go without medicine, can you?”

Melanie’s words were stuck in her throat when she heard a light scoff from Eugene. Her fists tightened,

causing her nails to dig into her palms. She then heard herself say, “I’ll give you the money.

Dylan instantly breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak when Melanie added, “But if you give

the money to that man again, I’ll report it to the police.”

Melanie had initially chosen this quiet spot in the garden to talk with Dylan. However, the small space

now seemed to amplify her words, making them particularly clear.

She could feel Eugene’s gaze still on her. Taking a deep breath, Melanie grabbed her bag and stood

up. Dylan followed suit, asking, “When will you transfer the money?”

Melanie felt dizzy and breathless. She took a step back, barely stabilizing herself. Then, as if in

defiance, she immediately transferred the money to Dylan using her phone.

“Eugene?” came the voice of the man behind her again as he called in a low voice. “How about we

have lunch together?”

Eugene responded with a soft hum and walked ahead.

Peachie happened to be playing by the flower bed. When she saw Eugene, she instinctively stepped

back. However, she did not notice the flower bed behind her that was almost as tall as her, and ended

The loud sound startled everyone present. Dylan was the first to react. She pushed Melanie aside,

rushing toward Peachie. Melanie stumbled but then regained her balance.

Peachie’s belated cry echoed through the space, and Dylan immediately embraced her, soothing her

with gentle words.

Melanie watched them, somewhat lost in thought. It turned out that Dylan had not lost her tenderness.

She had simply given it all to Peachie.

The suffocating feeling overwhelmed Melanie, making it hard for her to breathe. She observed them

silently for a while before turning around to leave.

Before she could take a step, she heard a teasing voice come from behind her. “Eugene, are you being

a big baddie today? Why are you scaring everyone?”
