1/2

Melanie was now staying in an old area in the North district. The security there was not great, and the

locks were old and dilapidated. It was equivalent to having no locks.

She was a light sleeper, and because of everything that had been happening recently, she did not

sleep very soundly through the night.

Melanie heard someone trying to break down her door in the middle of the night. She had initially

thought that she heard wrong.

However, the sound continued urgently for quite a few minutes. Whoever it was sounded like they were

trying to knock her door down, and this alerted Melanie.

Her house was on the first floor, and her window was facing a small garden. Melanie could not see

well, but she could hear someone using something to try and break her window.

Fortunately, her grandfather had installed guard rails to prevent theft, which was why that person was

not able to get in through the window.

However, it was still quite frightening to hear someone knocking on the window in the middle of the

night.

Melanie hid under her blanket, not daring to move. She did not even dare to turn on the lights because

she was afraid they would know she was at home.

She even heard the person outside shouting, “Give me back my money! Give me back my money!”

Melanie tried to calm down. She found her phone and called 911.

She spoke in a very low voice while whoever was out there began banging her door louder and louder.

It was very scary.

However, Melanie managed to maintain her cool. She felt about her and got out of bed to lock her room

door.

The lights in the room were too dim, and she accidentally kicked the corner of her wardrobe. She

teared up in pain but could only muffle her grunt as she stumbled back to bed.

Those loud bangings continued for more than 20 minutes and only stopped when the police arrived.

Melanie felt even more anxious when she heard the commotion outside.

Once everything had quietened, Melanie began to feel panic and fear again.

She was able to act with reason when facing danger, but at the end of the day, she was just a woman

about 20.

Melanie looked up at the thick curtains covering the windows and felt like someone might jump

through them at any second.

She closed her eyes, and tears streamed down her face.

How could she not feel scared?

When Xander came by, everyone from the studio arrived as well.

Melanie had called them because she could not take it any longer.

Xander looked at her reddened eyes and pale face. He frowned. “Are you alright?”

Melanie shook her head. The fear had just only begun to overwhelm her. Her limbs were weak, and

she could not speak.

She was wearing a cotton sleeping dress. Her long hair fell behind her back, and she was not wearing

any shoes.

It was only when Xander called her to say he arrived that Melanie dared to turn on the lights and open

the door.

Xander took off his coat and put it on Melanie. He looked at her bare feet and frowned. After that, he

looked away. “You can’t stay here. Pack up and go to my place.”

Melanie’s mind was in a complete mess, and she did whatever Xander told her to.

However, she did not go back to her room but looked at Xander hesitantly.

Xander knew what she was thinking. “I’ll check the windows first before you go inside.”

Melanie nodded and followed Xander into the room.

There was a slight breeze that night, and it blew into the room when he opened the window.

Melanie shrank from it. Xander had already closed the window. “The window is fine. It’s just a little

dirty.”

After that, he stepped out of the room and closed the door for Melanie. “Go ahead and pack. I’ll be

waiting outside.”
