Get you in my arms

Chapter 131 He Is On The Verge Of Breaking Down (Part Four)

With shyness all over her face, she held up her small pink fist and gave him a gentle punch on the shoulder, burying her head in his arms.

After dinner, Lucas went to the study. At the moment, Sophia was reading Joyce's diary while eating cherries on the sofa. In the letter, Joyce wrote down the things about Melody complained to her about it. She secretly overheard the conversation between Lucas and Chuck. Chuck asked Lucas to let her go and Lucas promised to treat her as his sister forever. Joyce chuckled to herself. In her eyes, Melody was not only her best friend, but also her biggest rival in love. She was too beautiful and excellent, which made her feel jealous and lose confidence. Moreover, they had known each other since childhood. She felt that as long as there was melody, Lucas would not notice her.

At the sight of this, Sophia shook her head. 'Watch out the best friend around you and don't let her steal your boyfriend' she thought to herself!

"You are so absorbed!" Lucas went out from the study room. She looked up and stuffed a cherry into his mouth when he walked out of the room.

"May I ask you something?"

He smiled and spat out a small core. "I'm all that I want to tell you." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Did Joyce jump from the building before what happened between you and Melody?"

Lucas stopped and said, "She was on summer vacation when I was going to marry Melody. Joyce was fired and she won't come to school in the new semester." He flipped her hair over her shoulder and asked, "Have you found anything?"

"Actually, Joyce has always been jealous of Melody. Melody is the campus Belle and the princess of the piano. She is excellent in every aspect. She regards Melody as her biggest rival in love."

Hearing that, Lucas raised his hand to touch his forehead, while a tinge of sadness flashed across his eyes. He said, "Melody works very hard and very seriously. Her dream is that one day she will be able to hold a piano concert at a famous theatre. She must have had a wonderful life, which should not have been like this."

With her head on his shoulder, Sophia stared at him right away. "Lucas, tell me the truth. If there was no Chuck, will you fall in love with Melody?"

"In my heart, Melody is just like Ellie. She is only my sister," His tone was very calm and firm. If he did not meet this powerful woman, his heart would still be like a spirit who could not find home, floating in the air.

Sophia sighed. That was not what Melody thought. In her mind, Lucas didn't accept her must because of Chuck.

She closed the diary, stood up and was ready to take a bath. But, he held her from behind with a naughty smile on his face, "Honey, do you want to take a bath with me?"

She kicked him softly and said, "My belly is not big enough to make I can't bent down. It's a wonder that the little winter guy hasn't woken up yet. Be careful!"

Lucas was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. With reluctance, he was forced to open his hands and fell down on the sofa.

In the evening of the next day, when Lucas left the company, he went to the villa of Chuck. Melody was waiting for him in the yard all day long. She did not want to go into the house. Chuck could not persuade her but stood quietly outside with her. They watched the sun rise from the East to the sky and slowly go down.

Her eyes suddenly brightened as she heard the roar of the motor. She rushed to the door in a wheelchair.

It was exactly the figure she had been longing for and expecting that got out of the car.

"Lucas..." she smiled happily like a peony in full bloom.

"Melody, are you obedient today? Did you follow Chuck's order?" He walked up to her, pushed her wheelchair into the house. Following them in silence, Chuck was overwrought by complex emotions. He didn't want Lucas to get close to Melody. He didn't want him to get involved in their life. He was afraid that he would take her away again. But his appearance had made her sober. He hoped that she could get back to her senses. What he could do was to endure it silently.

"Lucas, I want to play a piece for you." She turned around and looked at Lucas with a big smile. Chuck was surprised. She had never been to that favorite piano in the past ten years. Now she wanted to play the piano! How could she do that! He was so thrilled that his whole body was shaking. Although she was not played for him, he was still very happy.

Lucas pushed her to the front of the piano and adjusted the sound for her.

She stretched out her slender and fine fingers to slowly tap the piano keys. Perhaps it had been a long time since she had played the piano for a long time, and the sound from the piano was stiff and intermittent.

"How could this be? How could I play such a horrible song in front of Lucas? It shouldn't be like this. I did play very well, very well. " She shook her head desperately, clenched her fists and beat the keys hard.

In a hurry, Chuck held her hand and said, "Don't worry, Melody. You haven't touched them for a long time. You'll be fine after playing a little more."

"It's none of your business." She pulled out her hands, exerted some strength to push him away, and then bent on the keys and cried out loud. Lucas looked at her and found that she still seemed to be the same, who strived for perfection in everything without any flaws. He gently touched her head and said, "It doesn't matter, Melody. You haven't practiced for a long time, so you are a little rusty. Let me play with you, okay?"

Raising her head and taking a few sobs, a smile played at the corners of her mouth. She said, "Lucas, let's play Mozart's two Piano Sonata in G major."

"Okay." Lucas nodded.

As a result, a series of mobile sound waves rang out in the room, forming the quiet Twilight into pieces, and playing the dull dusk into lively and dancing.

Looking at them, Chuck felt that he was as useless as before. He could not play the piano with her. No matter how hard he tried, he could not keep up with her rhythm. Her fingers flew on the keys like a waterfall. Only Lucas could play the piano, and they cooperated perfectly without any trace.
