Chapter 1984 The room fell into a heavy silence. A few seconds later, Lucas scoffed and coldly retorted, "Didn't you promise to keep your distance from other men? Who gave you the right to do an ad for his company?" That immediately silenced Melody. She could clarify that nothing happened between her and Sherman, but she could not justify meeting him after promising Lucas otherwise.

Her grip on Lucas slowly loosened. She then sighed heavily and said," Lucas, I shouldn't have lied to you, but I hope you can givea chance to explain." Lucas hated being lied to, yet Melody already lied to him two times. Thus, it was difficult for him to trust her again.
Initially, Lucas had no intention of offering Melody another chance. However, her heartfelt apology softened his resolve.
Although Lucas remained silent, the fact that he did not leave presented Melody with an opportunity she desperately needed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMelody thus explained, "Lucas, do you remember when I told you I impulsively scratched Wendy's face in anger? The ad Sherman's company was working on got canceled because of that, and they faced considerable penalties. Sherman thought Wendy and I resembled each other somewhat, so he askedto step in as the spokesperson to finish the ad. I saw it as a chance to make amends for my earlier mistake, so..." Lucas' gaze darkened at her words. "So you went with it because he asked you to?" Melody walked up to him, saying, "I was hesitant at first, but I really felt I should take responsibility for it. Plus, I didn't want to owe him. I thought shooting an ad wouldn't lead to anything, and I could cut off contact with him afterward. Who knew it would turn out like this..." Lucas frowned and noted that she did look remorseful. ' What about the photos in the news? What are you guys doing so close together?" "Sherman and I didn't do anything!" Melody's explanation sounded feeble compared to the damning photos and videos.
'How on earth can I prove my innocence?' She looked at Lucas and thought to herself with great distress. Suddenly, an idea crossed her mind. "I have a way to prove I'm innocent, but I need to go see Sherman again." Lucas' expression darkened further. "You're going to see him again?" Melody was afraid that he would take it the wrong way again, so she hurriedly explained, "No, no! It's not because I want to see him, but I do need his help to clear my name. If you don't trust me, you can have someone to go withtomorrow." Lucas glared at her coldly for a long tbefore saying, "Melody, you better be able to prove your innocence." Melody nodded earnestly. "Trust me, I will."
Melody struggled to fall asleep the entire night, overwhelmed with m her regret. After all, it was her deception that led Lucas to completely lose trust in her. 'Those photos were clearly taken with sintention and deliberately posted online. Who could be behind this?' she pondered.
After a sleepless night, Melody got up with dark circles under her eyes! She freshened up and tried her best to look as awake as possible. Melody planned to leave the house as soon as she got downstairs, but Beatrice stopped her. "Melody, chere." Melody had a sense of foreboding as she followed Beatrice to the garden and sat on the bench. "Grandma, is there something you need?"
"It's not something major." Beatrice took out her phone and placed it in front of MelodyЄl cacross sunpleasant news online and wanted to ask you about it." 1 X
