Spencer stood in place, his back to Melody, frowning angrily as he thought about punching Nolan.
That guy knew perfectly well that building the YM Cosmetics factory was Melody’s project.
Yet, he deliberately took on the job and insisted on dragging Spencer into this.
He was practically begging for a beating.
The last person he wanted to run into on this trip back to Sommerville was Melody.
He hated her!
If it hadn’t been for the laptop he’d wanted to buy for… for himself four years ago, he never would’ve forced himself to meet with her, enduring the pain of rusty nails piercing deep into his legs.
And his legs wouldn’t suffer from lasting injuries.
When his older brother needed him and their father the most, his father had no choice but to take him back to that place, seeking out the best medical care to save his legs.
He would never forget that night.
His father had brought him to the gates of the Shield Residence, both of them drenched in the pouring rain, waiting for someone to let Melody know that they wanted to see her.
Back then, he sat in a wheelchair–the boy who loved boxing, unable to feel anything in his legs. He felt as if fate itself was dragging him down, a suffocating fear gripping his heart that he might never stand again.
Even so, he went with his father to the gates of the Shield Residence.
All he wanted was to see her one last time.
He wanted her to look him in the eye and explain why she had thrown away the very first stuffed toy he had won for her, even tearing it apart.
She promised him, that unicorn plush would be her favorite, forever.
It was all a lie.
Melody was nothing but a liar.
That night, the rain poured relentlessly, pounding down until morning.
Spencer tried several times to pull his father away, but Tyrell was just as stubborn. He only reassured him, saying, “Spence, this might be our last chance to see your sister.
“Let’s wait a little longer.
“If we don’t see her this time, we have to leave.”
Back then, Tyrell didn’t tell him where they would go; all Spencer knew was that his father was taking him

As they were driven away by the guards at the gates of the Shield Residence, Tyrell gently ran his fingers through Spencer’s hair.
“Your sister is still angry with me.
“She’s upset that I brought her back to the Shields, thinking I didn’t want her anymore.”
As someone who had raised her with so much love and affection, he could never truly part with her and send her back to the Shields.
However, during such uncertain times, even Martin wasn’t safe, and having Melody by his side…
That was when he felt most vulnerable.
Spencer’s face turned pale as he stood in the rain with his father all night, his once sturdy body shivering from the cold.
His eyes flashed with a piercing coldness as he sneered “Ha! She’s living a good life at the Shield Residence. Why would she ever want to associate with us poor losers?
“Dad, Melody is just an ungrateful brat!
“I’ll never forgive her for this.”
At 14, he still had the features of a boy, but his clear blue eyes burned with a chilling resentment.
In the end, Tyrell took him away from Sommerville.
He vaguely knew that his father had sent a doctor to watch over Martin, but Spencer still worried about his brother’s safety.
“Dad, is it safe for Martin to stay here?”
Tyrell replied tersely, “It’s not safe, but it’s safe enough now.
“Those people wouldn’t bother with a useless person.”
On the contrary, it was Spencer who was returning to Avenstras that was in danger.
But hearing his father refer to Martin as “useless” sent a sharp pang through Spencer’s heart.
Martin, a proud man he once was.
A top student at Greenfield University, a financial genius.
Now, he was reduced to nothing more than the regretful title of “useless“.
Spencer stood with his back to Melody, and after hearing her call out to him, he slowly turned around.
