Melody smiled and said, “Hera, you’re overthinking. I do have some feelings for Nash, but it’s not to the
point of liking him.”
Hera smirked. “Is that so?”
Melody lifted her head and looked directly into Hera’s eyes. “Yes. I won’t say I’ve never liked him, but at
least I don’t like him now!”
Perhaps it was because she realized she was starting to like Nash that she so desperately tried to
escape from her feelings.
Ever since the incident when she saved the baby but neglected the Warden, which resulted in her
being reprimanded by Nash, her affection for him had diminished significantly.
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
Hera and Melody talked for a long time in the office until it was almost time to leave. Melody went to the
restroom while Hera returned to her desk to send emails.
As soon as she sat down, she furrowed her brows together and forcefully pped her chest.
…
At Royal Bay Vi, Nash was on the phone with Ash, who informed him that there did not seem to be
many people on ck Wind Mountains.
Nash was puzzled. “Could they have moved?”
“That’s a possibility. I’ll break through the formation and check.”
“Be careful, Ash, The ck Wind Double Kill’s strength shouldn’t be underestimated.”
After exchanging a few more words, they hung up the phone.
Sienna was lounging on the couch ying Kings of Glory, while Lana’s features were scrunched up
with worry.
Nash yawned. “It’s getting dark. Do you two n on staying for dinner? My wife will be home soon. If
she sees you two here, she might get the wrong idea.”
Sienna gave Nash a disdainful look. “There are a ton of people wishing to treat me to a meal. What’s
wrong with me having a meal at your ce?”
Nash replied exasperatedly, “If you want a free meal, then drop your celebrity attitude. I won’t spoil
you.”
Sienna’s chest swelled with anger, but she could not do anything to Nash. She could only swallow her
pride and say in a low voice, “Mr. Nash, I was wrong. Let me have a meal here. I’ll pay for it!”
Nash could not be bothered to argue with her. Besides, Sienn Hera’s idol. With Sienna here, Hera
might eat a bit more.
“Mr. Calcraft…” Lana finally spoke after taking a deep breath. 1 was her first word since arriving at
Nash’s house.
“Yeah?” Nash gave Lana a faint nce.
“I… I have something I want to talk to you about privately,” Lana said, keeping her head down.
“Follow me,” Nash said as he led Lana to the park outside the vi.
As they walked, Melody’s Porsche pulled up at the entrance.
“Oh, Sienna?” Hera eximed in surprise, staring at Sienna.
“Hi, Hera!” Sienna immediately put down her phone and stood up from the couch. The two embraced
each other.
In the park outside, Nash was sitting on a stone bench while Lana was kneeling in front of him.
“When did you find out that I’m from the Young family?” Nash asked, his eyes narrowing.
“I began to suspect it when you killed Jay. Then, when I was boarding the ne, my grandfather sent
me a message. The Kleins probably informed him,” Lana replied.
“So, you’re kneeling before me now in hopes that I’ll spare your family?” Nash sneered.
Both the Jacksons and the Kleins were subordinate families of the Young family. These two families
were also the masterminds behind the Young family’s destruction.
Spare the Jacksons? How was that possible?
Lana nodded gently. “If you spare my family, I’ll do anything, even toil like a servant!” Nash was
amused by Lana’s words. “Do you think you’re so beautiful that I should feel honored to have such a
nobledy like you work like a servant?”
“I-I don’t!” Lana hurriedly shook her head. “I just want to exchange my safety for my family’s peace. You
can even kill me!”
“The Klein family has powerful people like Gerolt Wells and an ancestral figure in the Profound Oriental
Realm. Shouldn’t your family work with them?”
