Chapter 25
It was silent around Melody.
She could only see people opening and closing their mouths, and Tesut’s face twisted in pain.
She couldn’t move at all. The sudden tenor of losing her hearing made her freeze. Her mind went blank, and she was unable to react.
Then, Tessa threw another glass at her. Her arm was pulled, causing betto stumble backward and almost fall.
The glass shattered at her feet, but Melody could only see shands flying around. She couldn’t hear anything, like a silent movie.
She raised het head in a daze and saw Jereme’s tense profile,
He was frowning, talking to the others
Noticing Melody’s gaze, he lowered his eyes. It was as if a heavy fog had settled over his dark eyes, making his emotions unreadable.
Melody watched his lips move. She guessed he was asking why she provoked Tessa.
She wanted to explain but couldn’t get the words out.
Without her hearing, it felt like her ability to speak was also gone.
Her arm hurt more and more. She realized that Jeremy was pulling her right where shards of glass had cut her.
Some little pieces clinging to her skin seemed to dig deeper when he pressed down
A few reporters had noticed what was happening and aimed their cameras at Melody and Tessa
Ate
The flashes went off from time to time.
Melody felt her panic growing, and she wanted to run away. However, Jeremy kept a tight hold on her hand.
She tried prving his hand off with her other hand.
Jeremy glanced at her but simply pinned her hand down.
Tessa kept crying in despair. Her hateful stare never left Melody.
She was too wear to cry very loudly, but every word was filled with grief. It made people’s hearts ache to hear it.
“Why are you doing this? I only wanted to make arrangements for my family while I still could! I just hope they can live well after I’m gone!
“I don’t want to hurt anyone. I just want to figure everything out before my life ends. Why did you have to leak my situation? Why ruin all my plans?–
Her company already had internal issues. In the beginning, nobody knew her time was almost up. She could have used what time she had lett to deal with those
problems.
She had hidden it from everyone.
Now, everyone knew she didn’t have long to live, and the people at her company no longer respected her. She had every reason to be angry.
She only wanted to leave a good future for her family and child.
Tessa stared at Melody. “You did this for money. You’re vicious. You’ll pay for this! To sure you
Melody looked at her and tried to read her lips.
When she was young and lost her beating for a while, she leamed to figure out what people were saying from thelt mouthinuveinents.
Tessa was speaking quirky in beranger.
Melody guessed nothing she said would be good, but she still tried to figure it out. She wanted to explain that she wasn’t responsible.
However, sering Melody’s funtowed brow and silence, Tessa took it as mockery and scom
She kept throwing whatever she could at Melady
Some things landed at her teet, and some hit her body. It hurt.
Andrew finally noticed the commotion, coming over with Krystal.
He asked in a low voice, “Melody, what are you doing?”
