Melanie’s face fell instantly. She glanced at the bank card next to her feet. She was about to say something when the door was pushed open. Simon’s voice was heard before he appeared. “Can you stop stirring up trouble, Timothy?”

Melanie looked at the door. Simon had walked in along with Eugene behind him. Simon was taken aback, and his eyes narrowed, “What are you doing here?”

She retorted, “Why can’t I be here?”

“I told you that there’s 200 grand in there. If you’re not happy, I’ll give you 400 grand.” Timothy did not seem to care much about this. He seemed to be frustrated because he was in a bad mood.

Melanie pressed her lips. She did not expect Eugene to be here with Timothy.

Letting this matter go was not an option for her.

Melanie did not hesitate as she said coldly, “Mr. Harmon, I told you before back in Nava that you need to be sincere when apologizing.”

She looked down at the bank card next to her foot and emulated Timothy’s arrogant attitude. She lifted her chin and kicked the card away from her. “We could’ve resolved this, but if this is the way you’re acting, we can forget about it.”

Melanie was taunting Timothy. He had never been treated in such an insulting manner before.

A vicious look immediately appeared on his face. Moreover, he was also drunk, and this made his temper even worse. He picked up an ashtray at the side and flung it at Melanie. “Who do you think you are to dare lecture me?!”

“I didn’t know that.” Melanie suddenly felt fearful. did not have much contact with Timothy and

had.no idea he was suffering from such a condition.

However, after getting flustered by the information, Melanie felt annoyed once more. No wonder Timothy was always acting so recklessly. It was because he was emboldened by his condition.

She pressed her lips and pulled her hand away from Eugene. “I’m going back to the hospital.”

Eugene paused a moment before following behind her. Melanie wanted to stop him from coming along, but before she could get to the hospital ward, she heard Merry crying.

It sounded so miserable that Melanie was heartbroken listening to it.

She ignored Eugene and Simon as she pushed the door open. Yvonne walked out with Merry in her

arms.

Yvonne saw Melanie and said immediately, “You’re finally back. Merry was looking for her mother the moment she woke up. I couldn’t calm her down no matter what I did. I was about to take her to you because she was crying so much.”

It was like Merry had sensed Melanie around, and her hysterical crying immediately turned into quiet sobs. She buried herself into Melanie’s arms sadly and kept calling out to Melanie.

Yvonne was relieved. “This is the power of a mother…”

She did not finish her words as she suddenly spotted Eugene at the door. He was staring at Merry in Melanie’s arms. His usually calm expression was now filled with disbelief as his mind went blank.
