"Melody wouldn’t do that, she’s my sister, she’s relied on me since we were kids, don’t overthink it."

"Elias Hale, are you blind?" Melody Thorne became agitated, "Do you know that your sister is already insanely jealous? She went to the café last time and threatened me to stay away from you. Her intentions are clear to me as a woman!"

Elias Hale remained unmoved, "She wouldn’t!"

"You’ll be deceived by your sister sooner or later!" Melody Thorne couldn’t be bothered with him, grabbed her bag indignantly, and left, "Selina Sloan, you go find someone yourself, I don’t have time to find people for you every day!"

Once outside, Melody Thorne remembered something she had forgotten to tell Elias Hale: that Selina Sloan had been disfigured!

Never mind, if he’s not worried, why should she be?

In a place she couldn’t see, Elias Hale’s expression had already changed, becoming somewhat grim!

At the hotel reception, Melody Thorne ran into Timmy!

"Miss Thorne, long time no see, I hope you don’t mind about that coffee house incident!" Timmy stood in front of her.

The useless ones under her were all no good,

Melody Thorne wasn’t in the mood, but suddenly wondered if Selina’s disappearance was related to Timmy?

"Of course I don’t mind," Melody Thorne chuckled lightly, "I realized you’re right. Elias Hale does treat me quite specially, better than most men. I should thank you for the reminder, Elias is actually a good man, I quite admire him!"

"Melody Thorne!" Timmy’s face changed immediately, "You’ve a man already, how can you admire another one?"

"Of course, I admire a man like Elias Hale. Who said just because I have a man I can’t admire another? Maybe he likes women who already have men!"

Timmy’s eyes were fixed on her, besides Selina Sloan, Melody Thorne was the second woman Elias Hale was interested in,

No, he couldn’t be interested in any woman!

"Miss Thorne, you must be joking. By the way, do you have time now? How about I invite you for a cup of coffee? We can have a good chat?"

Melody Thorne saw restraint in her eyes, yet she could hardly wait to slap her!

"Sure."

"Miss Timmy, you said we were just going for coffee, why take me to such a far place?" Melody Thorne leaned against the window, watching the scenery pass by.

"Of course, I’m taking you to the best place for coffee," Timmy sneered coldly.

Outside the parked car, several men surrounded it, Timmy tossed the car keys to a nearby bodyguard, "Miss Thorne, we’re here, come down for a coffee."

"Alright." Melody Thorne stepped out of the car, following them inside.

Timmy wondered if Melody Thorne was truly foolish or just pretending, trusting so readily.

However, the outcome was what she wanted!

Inside the apartment, opening the door, the first thing Melody Thorne saw was Selina Sloan, weak and tied to a chair.

"Miss Timmy, is this the kind of place you invite me to for tea?" Melody Thorne smiled, not smiling, "Kidnapping your brother’s girlfriend, Miss Timmy, you have a unique style!"

"Melody Thorne, stop laughing, you’ll soon stop smiling. You will end up like her; both of you tried hard to get close to my brother, now you’ll see the consequence!"

"Miss Thorne..." Selina Sloan spoke weakly, with deep fear in her voice, "Why are you here?"
