Gary glanced up at Melody, who was seated in the car, his eyes flickering between despair and a glimmer of hope. At least he could see her.
Despite having been badly beaten, Gary clutched the mango cake protectively. Though it was now damaged, it hadn’t been ruined, and thankfully, it was still clean.and edible.
Holding the cake box tightly, he limped toward the car.
Bruises from Carson’s punches and the marks from Sean’s slap were still fresh on his face. Yet, through the pain, he forced a smile in Melody’s direction.
“Mel, look at this mango cake.
“I made it myself. Remember when you made one just like this for me?
“It may not look as good as yours, but I can keep practicing until I get it right, just like the old days.
“Mel, can’t we go back to how things were?”
Gary lifted the misshapen cake toward Melody, offering it like something precious. The hope in his eyes mirrored a brightness she once held.
But Melody remained cold, her gaze empty and unmoved by his emotional
gesture.
She looked at the mangled cake through the window and suddenly let out a laugh, her dimples showing as if nothing had changed. Her smile was sweet like honey, but her words were cutting.
“Gary, I’m allergic to mangoes.
“The one who shares your love for mangoes is Suzanna.”
Her words struck him like a sharp blade, digging into his very core. Though she smiled, it was the cruelest kind of smile. It tore at him deeply.
Holding the ruined cake, Gary felt as if his heart were being ripped apart.
He shook his head, panic rising, and tears threatened to fall.
He had stayed strong through every punch, slap, and humiliation, but now, two sentences from Melody shattered him.
“No
…
no … this can’t be happening…

Melody’s voice was calm as she continued, her tone indifferent. “Do you remember why I ate mango cake back then?”
It was like a switch had flipped in Gary’s mind. It had been because of him.
In the past, Melody had begged him not to box.
The next day, a college student was killed in an underground boxing match.
The student had skipped class to participate in illegal boxing and was killed by a professional boxer.
Melody had suffered in silence, enduring her pain to ensure his safety.
But instead of recognizing what she had done for him, Gary had only boasted about his luck, ignoring her absence for days afterward.
Now, as the truth crashed down on him like a bomb, the memories tore his heart apart.
“Gary, you’ll never get my forgiveness in this lifetime!” Melody declared with a sweet yet chilling smile.
Though she smiled brightly, it sent shivers through Gary’s body. His lips trembled as he tried to speak, “Mel…
”
But Melody wasn’t interested in hearing more. She rolled up the car window, crushing the deformed cake in the process. The cake was ruined, just like their relationship–beyond repair.
The black Rolls–Royce pulled away, heading into the Moore Residence. Gary stood motionless, his heart completely numb from the pain.
This time, he finally collapsed to the ground.
He appeared lifeless, staring into the distance as if all hope had drained away.
After a long time, a low and elegant voice broke the silence from above him.
“Trash belongs in the garbage. Why leave it lying around?”
Edward’s sharp, angular face was partially hidden in the dim light. His long lashes shadowed his eyes, and a winding scar twisted across his cheek, giving him a menacing look.
Without a word, Edward kicked Gary’s shoulder flipping him onto his back. He smiled in disdain.
“If you want to die, do it somewhere else.

Gary’s gaze was vacant. His voice cracked and broke. “I should die … I deserve to die…
“Mel, I was so wrong… When will you ever forgive me?”
Edward sneered. “Since you know you’re wrong, stay far away. Your death would only be an eyesore to Mel.
“She has me now. She has the Moore family. And if you ever come near her again, you won’t just be thrown out.”
Edward’s calm, cold stare pierced Gary, who had collapsed completely.
Gary’s tear–filled eyes turned toward Edward. Suddenly, a faint smile crept onto his lips. “It’s good… Finally, someone will love and protect her.”
Edward paused, his cool, distant expression softening briefly, as a wave of pain flickered through his heart.
In the past, Melody had no one to care for her, leaving her to grow up with rebellious thorns.
But now, with him by her side, she could return to the person she once was, free of those burdens.
Gary was then dragged away by the Moore family’s bodyguards and thrown into a car.
Then he was driven off and dumped in a ran
