Chapter 1975 Melody's expression worsened as she debated on the matter even more. Even her gestures with the flowers becinadvertently forceful.

Noticing the changes in her, Beatrice chuckled and said, "Melody, you're going to snap the stems of these flowers if you keep going like that." "Huh?" Melody snapped back to reality, realizing she almost damaged Beatrice's potted plants. "Sorry, Grandma," she apologized sheepishly. "I didn't mean to..." Beatrice smiled and took the trowel from Melody's hands, saying, "Don't worry about the flowers. Now, what's really bothering you?" "Oh, nothing!" Melody forced a laugh. "I was just a bit distracted by scelebrity gossip." Beatrice was not entirely convinced by Melody's explanation, but she did not press further. Instead, she turned back to tending the plants and said, ■' Melody, appearances can be deceiving. When it comes to these tabloids, it's crucial to get the full story from the people involved before passing judgment." Melody pondered Beatrice's words, her thoughts drifting elsewhere.' Grandma's right. The paparazzi love to create stories out of thin air.' Even so, Melody could not ignore how differently Lucas treated Stella compared to everyone else. She also knew that she herself was only Lucas 1 wife by contract, so she did not have any right to interfere in Lucas' private life.

Whether he was dating someone or caught in rumors was none of her business.

Still, her mind kept going back to those pictures, causing her to beceven more irate.

Melody could not possibly concentrate on the flowers anymore, so she excused herself. "Grandma, I'm a bit tired. I think I'll go upstairs and rest for a while. Let's do this again next time." Beatrice did not pry further. She just nodded and reminded Melody to take care of herself before letting her go back to her room.

Back in her room, Melody plopped down on her bed and tried to get a little nap, but sleep eluded her. Every tshe closed her eyes, images of Lucas and Stella entering the hotel together flashed in her mind, leaving her chest heavy.

Despite lying in bed for the entire afternoon, she had not slept a wink. It was not until dinner tthat she finally went downstairs.

As she passed through the foyer, Lucas happened to open the door and walked in.

Their eyes met in a silent exchange.

The thought that Lucas had just cback from Stella's side made Melody choose to ignore him. Without offering a greeting, she turned away and headed toward the dining room.

Lucas frowned at Melody's silent treatment. He found it somewhat perplexing but decided to change his shoes and follow her into the dining room.

"Grandpa, Grandma," Lucas greeted as he entered and found Melody had already taken her seat.

Upon seeing Lucas, Beatrice to cheerfully said, "You didn't eat say you were coming back for dinner.

What brought you back so suddenly?" "I just wrapped up swork, so I decided to cback," Lucas explained. He then took a seat next to Melody. However, she remained focused on her food and did not spare him a glance.

Although Melody and Lucas did not have much to talk about in the past, she never dared to ignore him or treat him with such blatant disregard. "Melody, Lucas is back. Why aren't you talking to him? Did you two have an argument?"

Beatrice's words snapped Melody back to attention. She turned to Lucas and forced a bright smile!! "Grandma, we didn't have an argument! I was just a bit hungry and didn't get a chance to talk to Lucas! I'm sure you're hungry too, Lucas!" With that, Melody grinned and served sfood onto Lucas' plate, saying," Dig in, darling!"
