Josboa, didn’t care that his leg hadi’t made a recovery yet. He tried to force himself five from the bodygand’s hold, wanting to go to Newland to find Melody.
He had not accepted Melody’s death ever since that day. He didn’t care that he’d seen her cope of personally scattered her ashes into the sea. He kept stubbornly thinking that Melody had to be alive somewhere.
Melody wasn’t dead. And to make himself believe in his ownlie, be downed himself in kolol every day mal even found himself a Melody lookalike to convince hise that she was still alive
Joshua had then started believing in his own lies as he stared at the lookalike’s features abnost every day,
‘s video had been like a wake–up call for him. He finally saw that Melody was alive and well, and his heart that had long gone numb suddenly came back to lite. He had also come out of his delusions.
He didn’t know how Meloetaked het death and escaped the wedding. He also didn’t know how she managed to make her way to Newland.
All he cared about was that Melody was still alive, and she was not dead yet!
He felt an immense joy coursing through his entire being. He didn’t want to care about his broken leg anymore and wanted to go to Newland to find Melody as soon
He wanted to tell her that he still loved her and had never forgotten about her.”
He wanted to propose to her all over again.
However, the bodyguards were like a thick, stubborn wall that he just couldn’t break through. They wouldn’t budge an inch no matter how hat
Just then, a tall figure pushed toward him from the other end of the corridor.
When the bodyguards saw that it was Jonah, they immediately released their hold on joshua.
Then, Jonah punched Joshua squarely in the Jaw
chard Joshua struggled
*How much longer are you going to kick up a fuss like this? Susie only cold you about Melody because she wanted you to wake up and stop being delusional! She
vement for you to go and and Melody.
“Think about everything that you’ve done! Do you not feel ashamed of yourself? How could you be so shameless as to want to go and find Melody despite everything! Do you even think Melody would forgive you?
“It she was prepared to forgive you, she would have told you straight from the start! She wouldn’t have gone through all that trouble to fake her death, change her identity, and escape overseas!
“Wake up, Joshua Gretchen! And stop being such a shameless bastard!”
Jonah kept landing perches on joshua. He couldn’t hold back the disgust in his eyes.
He felt disgusted knowing that Joshua kept telling Melody he loved her while fucking his mistress at the side. He also felt disgusted that Joshua drowned himself in sorrow and lol when the company had a crisis without bothering about the aftermath.
Because Joshua was still recovering, he didn’t have any strength left in him to retaliate. He was thus easily overpowered by Jonah as the latter continued beating
Eventually, Joshua lay on the ground in a fetal position as he bled from the comer of his mouth.
Jonah didn’t even want to spare him another glance. He told the bodyguards to guard joshua well before tuming on his heels and leaving.
Only Joshua was left in the huge, empty room, all by himself.
He fully couldn’t hold in his pain anymore and began to whimper
Team of regret clouded vision. He suddenly remembered the terrible car accident he got involved in years ago.
Melody spent the days and there nights with him at the hospital, never sleeping a wink and staying by his side until he finally woke up.

In fact, he had even thought of contiming his fuck–buddy amangement with Angel after getting married, even if he had to keep it behind closed doors. He’d alteady thought up the perfect excuse to give Melody when she got suspicious of it so that he could continue seeing Angel behind her back.
However, Melody wasn’t stupid, and Angel wasn’t that easily appeased and satisfied.
Angel had exposed all of his plans even before he’d started taking action.
Melody went as far as to take her death so that she could escape Joshua Meanwhile, Angel tisked her entire life so that she could marry him.
Melody didn’t love him anymore, and Angel was just after his money.
Nobody would ever love Joshua the same way Melody used to love him anymore.
He covered his face in despair as he continued to sob in silenur
