Looking at his smiling face, Terence felt a sharp pain in his heart. He frowned and a hint of gloom
flashed through his eyes. His face was covered with a thick layer of coldness, and he gave off a faint
aura that no one was allowed to enter.
"No!"
"Will I meet the woman who came here today again?"
Thomas was delighted, but worried. That woman was different from those women in the past, which
made him a little frightened.
She didn't look like those women who directly told him who they were or just tried to please him as
much as possible, which made him worried most. Even if his father said it was impossible, he couldn't
completely rest assured.
"It's getting late. I'm going to bed."
Looking at Thomas with deep eyes, Terence's fingertips trembled slightly. He tried to say something,
but in the end, he said nothing.
With Melody's family background and the grand wedding three years ago, it was really difficult to solve
it. He couldn't answer the question that his son cared about.
"Okay!"
The next morning, Thomas still got up as usual. After breakfast, he was sent to school under the
arrangement of Lisa. He sat on the small stool in the classroom, with his chin resting on his hands, and
continued what he hadn't figured out yesterday.
"Thomas, someone is looking for you!"
Hearing the teacher's voice, Thomas turned around and saw Melody waving at him in an intimate and
kind attitude.
Thomas sat quietly in the chair, showing no intention of standing up. He pinched the table with his
fingers and felt uneasy.
"What are you doing here?"
Melody smiled happily. Of course she heard his resistance. However, since her purpose of coming here
today hadn't been achieved, she would naturally ignore it.
She raised her hand to tuck the short hair near her ear, with a smile on her face.
"I heard that there is an activity in the kindergarten today, but your father is busy with his work. As your
stepmother, I have the right to come here!"
"I don't have a stepmother!"
Thomas' face turned red and her eyes were bloodshot. He looked at Melody aggressively. He clenched
his fists with excitement and trembled slightly.
He had his own mother. Why did he have to accept her as his stepmother?
"Well, excuse me, are you Mrs. Qi?"
The teacher looked at the two of them awkwardly and felt uneasy in her heart. As a teacher, she had to
take the responsibility for the numerous tricks of human traffickers!
"Of course I'm Mrs. Qi. I'm just in poor health and resting in the hospital."
The smile on Melody's face didn't change at all. She looked at the teacher elegantly with a smile. Then
she reached out her hand and put herself in the right position.
"Thank you for taking care of Thomas!"
The teacher carefully looked at the woman in front of her. From her refined clothes to her extraordinary
conversation, she was full of the temperament of a lady from the upper class.
And Thomas' identity was so precious, so it should not be wrong. However, all these were not enough
to prove the authenticity of her identity.
Thomas had never heard of anything about his mother since she went to school. Now such a
stepmother suddenly appeared. It was probably not simple!
"I'm really sorry. Our kindergarten is still in class. Parents are not allowed to visit us. Please wait
outside!"
"Okay."
Melody raised her hand and tucked her hair behind her ear gracefully to hide her anger. She just
wanted to earn Thomas's heart and continue to capture Terence. It seemed that her plan was going to
be ruined again.
"Thomas, I will pick you up after school!"
Thomas stepped back to avoid her touch. When he met her, he felt extremely uncomfortable. How
could he let her touch him?
Her hand was frozen in the air with embarrassment. Melody smiled and withdrew her hand as if nothing
had happened. She nodded to the teacher, turned around and left.
Thomas stared at Melody's receding figure, and there was a thin layer of sweat on his back.
After coming out of the kindergarten, Melody looked very embarrassed. She couldn't lose her temper
because of the people around her. She could only take a deep breath to barely control her anger.
The driver quickly opened the door, raised his hand to protect the top, and nodded slightly, waiting for
Melody to get in the car.
She turned around and looked at the tightly closed gate of the kindergarten. She was very angry. Then
she got on the car angrily and held her head with one hand, breathing fast.
"Miss, where are we going next?"
The driver carefully looked at Melody's face. Even if he was reluctant, he couldn't park at the gate of
the kindergarten all the time. This was not a solution!
"Go to Yam's place!"
Melody glanced at the driver coldly, thought for a while and said lazily. Time was pressing. She had to
make a plan as soon as possible!
When the driver stopped the car downstairs, the anger in Melody's heart almost dissipated. She took a
deep breath, raised her hand and pinched her stiff cheek before pushing the door and getting out of the
car.
On the other side, Yam was cleaning the room. Hearing the knock on the door, she put down her work
and rushed to open the door. The moment she opened the door, a hint of darkness flashed through her
eyes.
"Melody, why are you here? Come on in!"
Melody frowned impatiently and avoided her hand. She raised her hand to tidy up her clothes and
walked past Yam into the room. She glanced at her with disgust and sat down in a random place. Then
she took a deep breath and tried to restrain her emotions.
"How is it going?"
Yam smiled, put down the rag and nodded.
"Things are going smoothly. Hester will be more relieved to me in another month."
She looked around the room and found that Melody's eyes were fixed on one place, with her lips
slightly twitching. A few days ago, she heard from someone who monitored Yam that she would bring
bento to Hester every day. It seemed that this move worked well.
"It seems that you have achieved great results. That's good. As long as you act fast enough and help
me deal with Hester, you will save a lot of trouble.
You should know what kind of person I am. I don't like wasting my time! Since I can take you out of that
place, I will throw you back if I have the ability!"
"Melody, don't worry. I will try harder to get close to Hester."
Flustered, Yam hurried forward and held Melody's hand, eager to express her feelings.
"Hester is still the same as before. Although she looks smart and capable, her thoughts are still as
simple as before. As long as I hold on a little longer, she will be completely captured by me.
At that time, I can give her a hard blow secretly, making her unable to resist!"
