Chapter 205 Trash
Melody looked down at the crumpled share transfer agreement in her hand, her expression laced with disdain. With a slight glance, she let it slip from her fingers, watching it drift to the floor.
“Take your trash and leave,” she said flatly.
The agreement Timothy had held onto for so long, waiting for the right moment to give it to her, now lay scattered on the ground. He felt his breath catch as he stared at Melody’s cold, indifferent gaze, noticing that she no longer/even bothered to address him by name.
Gritting his jaw, Timothy took a step forward, bending down before her to pick up the paper. For a moment, he avoided her eyes, struggling against a mix of embarrassment and regret that made his face pale. As he clenched the wrinkled document in his hand, his fingers trembled, and he forced himself to look into Melody’s clear, unyielding eyes.
Afraid she might toss it aside again, he pressed the paper close to his chest, his gaze conflicted as he murmured, “Mel, this isn’t trash.”
“It’s my sincere apology,” he continued, his voice unsteady. “I know I misunderstood you before and caused you pain. But we’re family–brother and sister by blood. Could you give me another chance?”
“I swear, from now on, I’ll treat you just as well as I treat Suzie … equally.”
Despite being the older brother, he consistently pushed Melody to make compromises for the Shields, putting pressure on her to give up everything for Suzie Looking back, he could see that his and the Shields‘ treatment of her had only driven her further away.
With this resolve, he unfolded the agreement with a careful hand, showing it to her as he bowed his head.
Melody eyed his repentant expression, her brows pinched in irritation. She had no patience left for his empty words. Swiftly, she snatched the paper from his hand, gave a faint smile, and tore it straight down the middle.
The document split in two, the sound sharp in the silence, and she watched as his eyes widened in shock. Without hesitation, she grabbed the torn halves from his hands and shredded them into tiny pieces, then tossed the scraps right in his face.
The fragments scattered across Timothy’s face, but he didn’t seem to feel a thing, his once–proud posture collapsing as if all strength had left him. The arrogance that had once marked his expression was gone as he staggered forward, forcing a strained smile as he tried to placate her.
“Mel, are you done? If tearing it up helped, then go ahead. You can take it out on me–I’ll stand here and let you do whatever you want.”
Melody almost burst out laughing at the absurdity of it
She gave Timothy a firm shove and watched as the tall, sharply dressed CEO stumbled backward, landing on the ground among the torn pieces of paper. He looked as discarded as the scraps that surrounded him.
“Timothy, do you even understand plain language?”
“I told you to leave. I don’t want to see you. To me, you’re worth less than those shreds of paper. Just

looking at you makes me sick.”
She gazed down at him, sprawled in his rare moment of disgrace, her expression void of sympathy. Her words were cutting, but her tone was devoid of emotion.
Timothy’s turmoil had become meaningless to her.
They were done long ago. If he hadn’t come back to disrupt her life, she’d have forgotten about him entirely.
As Timothy prepared to push himself up, his hand froze mid–air, and he slumped back, defeated, his eyes reddening as he sank helplessly to the floor.
