Chapter 139

Dylan turned to look at Melanie after making sure that Peachie was all right.

She was taken aback to see the soup splashed on Melanie’s sleeve. She yanked a couple of tissues as

she anxiously tried to wipe it off. “I’m sorry. That’s so clumsy of me.”

Melanie stopped her. “It’s fine. I’ll just change into something else later.”

Dylan looked at her and asked carefully, “Your shirt must be really expensive.”

Melanie paused for a while before asking, “Didn’t you invite me over for a meal?”

Dylan had made soup, ribs, steak, and vegetables.

She fed Peachie while saying to Melanie, “You should eat up. We don’t usually eat steak at home, but I

wanted you to have something nice to eat, so I went to get it at the supermarket this morning.”

Melanie had just recovered from a fever and did not have much of an appetite.

She picked up some vegetables but found herself losing even more appetite after hearing what Dylan

said.

Dylan noticed that Melanie had stopped eating and quickly put some steak and ribs on Melanie’s plate.

“You should eat some more. I remember how much you loved my cooking when you were young.”

Melanie saw the anxious and guilty look in Dylan’s eyes. She pressed her lips and said nothing.

After they were done, Dylan cleared the table and got Peachie to take a nap inside the room.

Melanie sat on the sofa. She knew why Dylan had asked her here, and she was just waiting for Dylan

to bring it up.

After Dylan walked out of the room, she poured Melanie a glass of water before sitting down next to

her. Just as Melanie expected, Dylan began sounding her out. “Mel, I know you’re working at a big

company in Jepton. Was that your boss the other day?”

Melanie affirmed it, and Dylan continued asking, “Do you think you can talk to him and get him to

arrange for

for your Uncle George’s release?”

She sounded very sincere. “If anyone finds out about this, they’ll gossip about it.

Melanie had already expected this, but it felt even more horrible when Dylan said it out loud.

she calmed herself down before replying “I think you’re overestimating me. Do you really think I can

convince my boss?”

Dylan was taken aback as she began mumbling, “Just go and beg him. Can’t he help with such a minor

hing?”

he was asking Melanie to beg Eugene.

Even though Melanie had been mentally prepared for this, she was still filled with fury after hearing it

from Dylan. She stood up, and her voice trembled as she said to Dylan, “Am I so worthless to you?

Why don’t you ever consider my situation?”

Dylan got frantic when she saw Melanie enraged. She stood up as well.

She pulled on Melanie’s hand and continued begging, “Please help me with this, Mel. I’m begging you.

Please help me!”

Dylan was about to kneel in front of Melanie when Melanie grabbed her by the arms and dragged her

She was still mumbling about it, and Melanie finally could not take it anymore. She yelled at Dylan,

Dylan Lancaster! Just wake up already!”

Dylan wiped away her tears and suddenly broke down. “How am I supposed to do that? How do you

expect me to? He’s a terrible man, but what can I do?”

“He’s still Peachie’s father no matter how terrible he is.” Dylan buried her face into her hands as she

sobbed quietly. She was miserable.

Melanie stood there and watched her calmly. “If he’s such.a person, why don’t you just divorce him?”

Dylan sobbed into her hands and did not reply, but Melanie knew the answer.

It was because Peachie was still young.

Peachie could not be without a father.
