“Yeah. We went there last night to test out the formula. To be sale, we avoided the rest, so we... “she tried to explain hersell.
However, her explanation sounded shrill to his ears. He had been trying to forget, but as soon she mentioned the words “last night” and “we,” the scene flashed across his mind again, provoking his every nerve and making his blood boil.
He took a few deep breaths and curled his lands into fists, saying through gritted teeth,” Don’t mention last night's incident toagain!” Melanie stopped talking and sat down by his bed. Looking at the side of his face, she said, “I didn't want to hurt you this way, but I'll make things clear to you since you found out about it. Yes, | was wrong, but you cannot deny that you've always been the man | loved. I've loved you, and only you! It's just a deal between him and me. | didn't do all that just for my sake.” “Hahaha!” Nathaniel laughed boisterously, but his movement was too big that it pulled his muscles, hurting his wounded limbs.

“If you feel better by mockingthis way, go ahead. | just want to tell you | did everything for us and our future. That's the truth, regardless of what you choose to believe.” Melanie was calm, and she spoke with determination. She looked so solemn that Nathaniel thought she was reading ssacred vows.
“Melanie Thayer, | never knew that you were so good with your words.” “You can blme all you want! Just letask where were you when | was wronged and bullied? What about when | was alone and helpless in Middle Valley? What were you doing when Lily was humiliating me? About the problem with the formula, do you remember who caused the problem and who helped you seltle it? Can you tellthat you and the company aren‘t benefitting from the new formula? “All you know is to blme, but liave you thought of why | had to do that? | wish | could be a stay—at-hrich mom who only has to take care of my kids, go for manicures, and shop all day! Who forcedonto this road?‘ She becagitated and then furious while speaking. Puzzlement flashed across Nathaniel's gaze. “What? Is it my fault now?” Melanie wiped away the tear threatening to fall from the corner of her eye, sucking in a deep breath as she said, “I'm not blaming you. I'm just trying to say that none of the things that happened were what we wished for! If | had another choice, | wouldn't have...” She trailed off, then, after a moment, continued, “Nate, | fell in love with you ever since we were students. | love you with all my heart, past, present, or future. The only reason | could keep it together while seeing you care about Lily is that | love you. Would | have willingly becyour secret lover if | did not? You know how much I've done for you all these years. | did nothing wrong to you in the past!” Slowly, she stood up and looked clown at him indifferently. “The last thing | want to say is that | can’t do anything if you can't accept what has happened. Breaking up is an option too for us if you like.” Then, she left the hospital ward.
During lunch, Lily and Olivia had planned out most of the things about their trip.
