“Then let’s celebrate you coming home,” Xander responded unusually quickly with a hint of cleverness

in his tone.

The heavy emotions that had clouded Melanie’s mind gradually dispersed. She stepped aside, but

when her gaze fell on the things that were still untouched on the floor, she felt an embarrassment

bubble within her.

Xander’s eyes swept across the house, and when he saw the two ceramic dolls on the floor, he raised

an eyebrow. He asked, “Were those two ugly things a gift from Stephen?”

Melanie hesitated before realizing he was talking about the ceramic dolls. “They’re not ugly, are they?”

Xander chuckled. “Stephen gave me something similar before. When he gives me things, he fails about

nine times out of ten.”

Melanie had no idea about the story behind these ceramic dolls. After putting out the things Xander

brought, she said in a low voice, “I thought you’d left.”

Xander did not answer immediately. Instead, he helped Melanie set the table. It was dinner time, and

she did not have anything at home. If Xander had not bought the takeaway, Melanie would have gone

out to eat.

It was already late in the evening when they were done with dinner. Xander was about to take his

leave, and Melanie decided to see him off. However, he refused. “The corridor light isn’t working.

Remember to call the property manager during the day and get them to fix it.”

Stephen had informed him about Melanie’s mild night blindness.

Melanie was momentarily surprised but nodded. “Got it.”

Despite the dim light, Melanie still opened the door and watched as Xander walked into the corridor.

Darkness had already set in by then, and she could only make out a faint silhouette.

Just as she was about to turn back, she saw him suddenly stop in his tracks.

“Melanie.”

A deep and somewhat hoarse voice resonated in the dimness. Melanie looked over but was only able

to discern a vague figure.

She was about to go back inside when she heard him say, “You have the right to be unhappy, to feel

sad and wronged. You don’t have to endure it.”

Closing the door of her apartment behind her, Melanie could still hear Xander’s words echoing in her

ears. She looked at the scattered boxes in the room and attempted a smile, but it quickly

faded.

Although there were no issues with the infrastructure of this old house, the furnishings were still a bit

lacking. Melanie,continued unpacking until midnight. Later, she sat on the sofa.

The next morning, Melanie had the cake that Xander brought over yesterday for breakfast. Xander

seemed to have anticipated this decision of hers as she found a carton of milk next to

the cake.

After tidying up the house, Melanie headed to the hospital. Today, she had to visit the hospital first and

then look for Xander. She did not want to further delay her work. Keeping herself busy with tasks would

be beneficial.

It so happened that she had plans to have dinner with Xander and Stephen in the evening. After

spending the whole day at the hospital, she went directly to the agreed–upon restaurant. “Mario just

opened a new restaurant. He called me so many times, insisting that I try it,‘ Simon said, tossing his car

keys while talking to Eugene as they made their way to the

restaurant.

Eugene nodded. “The Curo family has great insights into the catering industry.”

Simon raised a brow at the statement before replying, “He mentioned to me a couple of days ago that

he wants me to help him establish a connection with your family.

“I don’t think it’s a bad idea. Besides, aren’t you planning to throw Viola a birthday party? It wouldn’t be

a loss to consider hiring him for it.”
