Chapter 2056 'Why does she keep pushingto another woman? Does she have no heart at all?'thought Lucas.
Lucas walked over to Melody with a darkened expression. It was obvious he was in a bad mood.
"It's true that I've known Stella for many years, and I've explained everything to you. There's nothing more I can say if you still don't believethere's nothing more. Melody, don't forget you're my wife right now. Do what you're supposed to do, and don't reveal anything in front of Grandma and Grandpa. Play your role well!" Melody's hand, which was combing her hair, froze for a moment. She let out a bitter laugh and said, "Don't worry. When have I ever let you down in playing the role of your wife? It's you who should not keep an eye on Miss Stella lest she expose our secret to Grandma." "Always sharp-tongued as usual. I guess that's your only skill!" Suddenly, Lucas leaned in and held Melody's chin. Her skin was soft to the touch, and there was a lingering fragrance as she had just taken a shower.

The atmosphere between the two was still tense when they were in the room. However, as soon as they descended the stairs, they immediately acted sweetly to each other.
Lucas then held Melody's hand, causing her to be momentarily stunned.
Lucas cleared his throat and said seriously, "Why are you looking atlike that? I'm just doing it to make our act more believable. You're an actress now, so shouldn't you be better at acting than me?" Unexpectedly, Melody did not argue with him. Only she knew that she had misunderstood something, but unfortunately...
The two women downstairs had different expressions.
Beatrice saw Lucas and Melody holding hands as they descended the stairs. The more she looked at Melody, the more satisfied she felt. She was determined to dispel certain unwarranted thoughts in the minds of speople regarding her granddaughter-in-law.
Stella naturally noticed this, too. She had anticipated Beatrice would not summon her for anything good. Indeed, it was all to make her see the scene before, hoping to discourage her.
Stella had to admit that she was indeed provoked. The scene of Lucas firmly holding hands with Melody truly infuriated her. She felt like a knife was cutting into her chest watching them so close together.
Beatrice watched her every move, so Stella could not do anything. She forcefully suppressed the resentment in her heart, put on her best fake smile, and approached with feigned enthusiasm.

Melody instinctively pulled away, feeling goosebumps all over. Why did she find the voice of this big celebrity so sickeningly sweet? Nevertheless, she replied, "Oh... I was talking to Lucas and lost track of time." Stella mentally snorted, but she maintained her fake smile. "Ah, I see! By the way, Grandma wouldn't lethelp in the kitchen either. I've just been sitting here, waiting to eat. How embarrassing is that? Melody, why don't you go and talk to Grandma for me? She's too kind to me!" Stella deliberately said to Melody, hoping to make her believe that Beatrice genuinely cared for her.
Beatrice glared coldly at Stella, her tone was incredibly gentle as she then spoke to Melody, "Melody, chere."
Beatrice, annoyed at Lucas standing there without offering tea to the guest, said, "Lucas, quickly havem someone serve tea. It's so rare for Miss Stella to chere. We wouldn't want her to think that we're not hospitable, would we?"
Stella was not stupid. She could naturally discern Beatrice's attitude toward her. She awkwardly faked another smile, released Melody's hand, and ushered her toward the elderly woman's side. her. She awkwardly faked
Lucas watched as Melody obediently He He raised walked toward Bealed his chin slightly and and signaled the servant to serve tea to Stella in the living room. "Melody, in our house, only the host is allowed in the kitchen. It's not appropriate for guests to go in and help with cooking, right?" asked Beatrice cheerfully. She affectionately patted Melody's hand, showing her fondness for her. "Melody, come, helpin the kitchen!" Melody did not actually understand the hidden meaning in the old lady's words, but she nodded obediently and followed Beatrice to the kitchen.
Melody would rather help Beatrice in the kitchen than witness Stella throw herself at Lucas. After all, out of sight, out of mind.
