Bathed in the golden sunlight, Spencer’s tall and aloof form was cast in a warm glow. His face was striking, with deep–set eyes and a high nose bridge, and his gaze held a mysterious amber hue.
Dressed in a black windbreaker against the bright day, he looked at Melody with a lazy, nonchalant air.
He was like a wild blade of grass, swaying freely in the spring breeze.
Melody’s eyes widened. There was no doubt about it–this was Spencer.
Four years had passed, and he had grown and matured.
He was now a man.
But Spencer looked at her with unfamiliar indifference, as if the girl before him were nothing more than a
stranger.
Then he completely dismissed her, swinging a set of motorcycle keys in his hand as he coldly asked Nolan, “Aren’t you leaving yet?”
Spencer was already well aware that Nolan had scouted the area and found the best solutions for the factory’s construction.
Yet, he deliberately lingered, wasting time.
He just wanted to see Spencer and Melody meet in person, curious to observe Melody’s reaction.
Actually, he was willing to cooperate because he wanted to know if she would recognize him.
Yet, when Melody actually approached, a wave of confusion washed over him.
It all seemed pointless. After all, he didn’t return for Melody. What difference did it make whether he saw her or not?
Just as he was about to stride away, a soft little hand suddenly tugged at his sleeve.
Melody furrowed her brow, a thousand words swirling in her mind, but all that came out was a concerned remark, “Spence, you’ve lost weight.
“In these past four years…”
Spencer had once had a bit of baby fat on his cheeks, while Melody, two years his senior, still had plenty of collagen on her face.
Whenever they had petty arguments, they would end up playfully wrestling and pinching each other’s cheeks before seeking out their dad and brother to settle the score.
The two of them never tired of this playful banter.
Spencer, pouting in annoyance, huffed at Melody. “It’s all your fault, Melody! You pinched the fat on my
face!”

Melody burst into laughter. “What? Are you worried that your round face won’t attract any girls?
“Tsk! My little brother is 14 and still has baby fat. With a face this cute and soft, who could dislike him?”
Spencer continued to pout, still furious and feeling far from comforted.
At that moment, Melody would suddenly change her tone.
“Alright, I’ve comforted you for 30 seconds- that’s my limit.
“Go ahead, try pouting again.”
Spencer thought, What a wicked woman! She’s being mean to me again!
In the next instant, he put on an expressionless, aloof facade.
Yeah, he wasn’t pouting at all.
Before Melody could finish her words, Spencer interrupted her. “Ms. Shield, you’ve got the wrong person.
“If you keep bothering me, I’ll call the police.
“Let go of my sleeve. I’m not the person you think I am.”
He shrugged off her grip and, noticing the redness in her eyes, paused. His cold demeanor softened a bit as he took a step back.
What a pain! Is Melody about to cry?
But she was the one who had been bullying me!
What right does she have to feel sad, to want to cry?
So, Spencer shot an annoyed glance at the instigator, Nolan, who immediately caught on. He knew that if he didn’t clarify, Spencer might just tear him apart.
He quickly stepped forward to explain, “Ms. Tucker, you definitely mistook him for someone else.
“Let me introduce you. This is Carlos, the Prince of Avenstras. His father is Rocford, a surviving heir of the Jacques Royal Family.”
Anyone who has studied history is aware of this. (Fictional)
Avenstras was ruled by two royal families that alternated control of the political and financial powers every 30 years.
However, a split and confrontation between the two families was inevitable.
