Chapter 335 Secrets in the Lilies

Melody hadn’t thrown away the lilies he’d left for her.

But Alfred really the one who’d sent them?

Every morning, rain or shine, white lilies had appeared on her dance studio windowsill following Alfred’s confession. There was a handwritten note tucked beneath each pot.

She remembered the first line of the notes, written in Temore Script.

“Grow up slowly. The light is in front of you, and I’m right behind you.”

Melody had kept that note secretly in her bag, hidden from Martin, though she’d always felt that Alfred wasn’t quite the type to write something like that.

But then again, who else at Sommerville 7th High School would dare to confess to her?

The more Alfred thought about it, the stranger it seemed.

Back when he’d been home nursing his injuries, Edward had been unusually busy–and in an unusually good mood.

Alfred may have had his clueless moments, but he wasn’t slow all the time. His eyes widened in shock as he looked toward Edward, who sat nearby, calm and composed.

No way. Considering my so–called “pursuit of Melody, Edward wouldn’t have stayed so composed.

This meant that the mysterious admirer pretending to be him, the one leaving lilies for Melody could only be… Edward!

Well played. What a grand scheme.

What a deep cover–up.

Alfred was about to say something when Edward smoothly cut him off, Alfred, you’ve got some nerve!”

So, you’re telling me I’m the scapegoat here?

However, Alfred dared not argue back, dutifully letting himself be scolded.

“Edward,” he muttered. “There’s no need to go so overboard… I mean..

“Think about it, why would I go out of my way to shower Melody with lilies if she hadn’t accepted my confession?

“It’d be shameless–like the lowest of low for me to do that!”

Alfred’s tone was dripping with sarcasm, but he had no choice but to stay in line as Edward’s expression grew colder by the

second.

“Still, Alfred added quickly, “come to think of it. Mel, for you to remember all those lilies I supposedly sent… maybe you actually had a little crush on ‘me‘ back then?”

It sounded like a casual question, but Alfred’s ears were fully perked up, bracing for her answer.

Melody shook her head honestly.

“Nope. I wasn’t into the whole dating thing. My brother used to say that early romances would make witches curse you toad. Men weren’t nearly as important as a girl’s beauty.”
