Chapter 1909 Upon hearing the n'Rivera Group', the bartender's expression changed immediately. He led them to a booth and even brought two glasses of water, saying, "Please wait a moment. I'll get our boss right away." The stark shift in the bartender's attitude highlighted the Rivera family's immense influence in the city.

Melody felt a bit uneasy. She never interacted with such a bigwig before, and she was about to becthe wife of one for a year. She had no clue what challenges the upcoming year might cher way.

The bar owner arrived promptly, smiling obsequiously at Edmund. "I apologize for the wait. I heard you lost something and want to check last night's surveillance footage. Our bar is quite large, and we have multiple cameras. Could you please letknow the specific areas you'd like to review?" Edmund turned to Melody.

Melody stood up and pointed to the nearby booth. "Around this spot, and the route leading to your hotel." The bar owner promptly had a laptop brought over and played the surveillance footage forthem.

As expected, the footage clearly captured Wendy persistently pushing Melody to drink. Every gesture and expression was sharply defined. The footage from the pathway to the hotel also revealed Wendy engaging in a conversation with William.

He seemed eager to have Wendy go upstairs, but after swords were exchanged, he nodded with a sly smile and ascended the stairs alone.

Melody realized that Wendy must have made sdeal with William at that moment, perhaps promising to bring Melody to his room later.

'Well played, Wendy. The 'best sister of the year' award goes to you,' Melody thought sarcastically.

"Sir, could you make a copy of this footage for me? I need it," Melody requested.

Given Lucas' influence, the bar owner did not dare to refuse and did not press for more details.

With the surveillance video in hand, Melody and Edmund returned to the car and continued their journey to the Sanders' residence.

Edmund parked the car at the entrance of Sanders' residence, turned to Melody, and asked respectfully, "Miss Melody, do you wantto go in with you?" After witnessing Melody and Wendy's fight yesterday, he had a sense of the dynamics within the Sanders. Thus, he was a bit worried about the challenges Melody might face.

Edmund thought being there as Lucas' assistant might offer ssupport to Melody and possibly smooth things over with the Sanders. After all, the Sanders should not be so disrespectful as to deny guests even basic courtesy.

However, Melody found the situation somewhat comical. The idea of needing an outsider to accompany her into her own hwas ironic.

"It's okay, I can handle it. Just wait foroutside." She declined Edmund's offer and stepped into her house alone.

As Melody stepped inside, the first person she encountered was Helen.

Seeing Melody's return, Helen immediately put on a stern expression. She raised her hand and slapped Melody, saying, "How dare you still show your face here? Do you have any idea how your dad scoldedbecause of you? He hasn't even talked tosince!" The slap brought tears to Melody's eyes. Beyond the physical pain on her face, the ache in her heart cut deeper.

After being away for so long, there was no warmth or concern from Helen. All Melody got was bland a slap.

Melody quickly wiped away the tears and shot Helen a defiant look.

Without saying a word or offering any explanation, she headed straight to her room. There, she pulled out her luggage and began packing her belongings.

Helen cin after Melody. She stood at the side and asked angrily when she saw her packing her she saw luggage, What are you doing, Melody? Are you really moving out to be someone's mistress?" Melody ignored Helen; she just quickly packed her things.

However, most of her belongings were hand-me-downs from Wendy since childhood. Thus, there was actually no need for Melody to bring it with her to her new residence.
