"I'm very well done. I will prepare the best steak for you today." John was not the man who used to be.
Now he was not only handsome in the drawing room but also skillful in the kitchen.
"Okay, let me taste the food you cook later." Sophia smiled gracefully.
A murderous light quietly flashed through Lucas's eyes. In his heart, John was still an invisible enemy.
His foundation was too deep, and there would be a danger if he came back at any time. He had to be
prepared in advance.
Ellie was more nervous than him. She still needed to work harder. Noticing that a new friend was
approaching, Ellie held John's arm and tried to send him away. But he was unwilling to do so. He had a
lot to talk with Sophia. He wanted to let her see his change and to let her find that he was much better
than before. He couldn't change his habit of being with her for a long time. No matter what happened,
he wanted to be the first one to share with her.
But Lucas was standing in the middle with a pair of vigilant eyes and the defense capacity of his body
was 9999%! It seemed that he was reminding them that he was her husband!
He felt that cold water was pouring down and drenched his heart. The past was gone and she had
married someone. And she would become a mother soon. She didn't only belong to him as before. He
came to his senses again, and finally he broke down in the cruel reality. He uttered thousands of words
and was held back by Ellie unwillingly like a robot who felt depressed and walked away.
Sitting on the chair with his arm around her waist, Lucas offered Sophia a glass of juice and said,
"Honey, you want to eat steak, I'll roast it for you later."
Understanding what he was thinking about, she gave him a smile and said, "Well, today is Ellie's
birthday. John is going to do his best. You'd better not steal other people's thunder." The most
important thing was that she was very worried about Lucas's skills. Since the little steak was out of the
furnace, it would not make this perfect image hateful.
"All right." It seemed that she convinced him. He raised his eyebrows, 'Just give him a chance to show
his ability."
As they were talking, a soft voice came from not far away, "Lucas..."
Turning his head, Lucas saw Chuck coming slowly towards him, together with Melody on the
wheelchair.
Sophia also looked at them, Melody was no longer dull or, crazy and silly. Her beautiful face was like
blooming roses, and her eyes were bright, like the black glaze shining in the sun.
"Is she recovered?" Sophia was confused.
Lucas nodded, "She has returned to normal. She can almost remember everything in the past." As for
the tragedy, she seemed to have forgotten it completely, or maybe she had selectively forgotten it,
which was the best, he only hoped that her heart could be completely untied, and that she could spend
the rest of her life with Chuck.
Chuck and Melody walked to them.
At the sight of Sophia, the smile on the face of Melody froze completely.
"Lucas, do you get a new girlfriend?"
"Melody, she is not Lucas's girlfriend, but his Cousin. " Chuck explained hurriedly and winked to them
again and again. It was uneasy for Melody to woke up. He was afraid that she would be stimulated
again and become what she used to be.
Sophia and Lucas looked at each other, and could only cooperate. She smiled at Melody, "Hello, I am
Sophia, Lucas's cousin."
"So you are his cousin." Hearing that, Melody breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled again, "How come I
haven't seen you before? I have seen many relatives of Lucas's family."
"I I used to live in America, this is the first time I've been to Q City. " Sophia suddenly realized that she
had changed her mind so fast.
"Oh." Nodding her head, Melody turned to look at Lucas and didn't talk to Sophia, "Lucas, are you busy
recently? Why don't you come to see me again? "
Lucas smiled gently, "I have a lot of work to do recently. I'll visit you when I'm free."
"Can I call you then? Though I can't see you, I will be happy as long as I can hear your voice. " Melody
blinked her big eyes and looked at him pitifully.
"Of course." After nodding slightly, Melody asked him to help her stroll around. Watching them walk
away, Sophia handed a glass of champagne to Chuck. "Is she really sober now?" She found that
Melody was as clingy to Lucas as before.
Chuck looked a little melancholy. "Her memories remain in the past."
"So you want to hide it from her all the time?"
"I'm just afraid that she can't take it." Chuck sighed. He wanted to make it clear to her. During these
days, she always mentioned Lucas, which almost drove him crazy.
At this time, Lucas came to the central stage of the garden with Melody, when she saw the piano, her
eyes brightened up, "Lucas, I want to play the piano. I practice it every day. I'll play it for you."
"Okay." Lucas pushed her to the front of the piano.
Her slender fingers danced on the keys, like many white spirits jumping quickly. The fate of beryl was
excited and sad in her play.
"Lucas, come with me!"
Sitting beside her, Lucas cooperated with her, as harmonious and tacit as before. The friends around
them were also attracted to them.
"Well played."
"Too tacit. It's like just one person playing."
Everyone was praised, and the applaud was heard by Chuck. With a bitter smile on his lips, he said:
"Sometimes, I really think they are a match. If I hadn't been the obstacle between them, they may not
be like today." Her tone was full of sadness.
Without any jealous expression on her face, she didn't think she should be jealous at all. It was just a
piece of music and she said: "Lucas is my husband and Melody is your wife. You shouldn't say that."
"I have never been in her heart." Chuck buried his head in his palms.
"But Lucas only loves me. He always treats Melody as his sister. You don't have to worry too much."
Sophia patted him on the shoulder to comfort him and walked towards the crowd.
When the song was over, thunderous applause erupted.
Melody's heart was beating fast. It seemed that she hadn't been praised and surrounded by a crowd for
a long time. What was more important was that she was together with Lucas.
She raised her arms excitedly, held around his neck and kissed Lucas on the cheek.
Lucas was shocked. He pushed her hand away and stood up to search for Chuck in the crowd.
However, he was still not replaced at the critical moment? But Chuck didn't show up. He was hiding in
a corner, dejected.
John's eyes were burning with anger when he saw this scene. Lucas was cheating on Sophia openly
while she was pregnant with his child. That was going too far! He was about to punch Lucas in the
face, but Ellie hurriedly grabbed him and took him to a quiet place to explain.
The others all gasped and turned their eyes to Sophia.
Sophia was composed and cool. She walked to Lucas and held his arm, "Hi, cousin!" The sound was
clear and loud.
Everyone was confused. Was she playing a role?
"Chuck was over there." She pointed to the shadow behind the Silvertree. "Let's return Melody to him."
While walking, Lucas gazed at her face. He was afraid that his wife would be jealous of Melody, so he
had to kneel down on the floor of their house. Turning around, Sophia smiled calmly, which didn't seem
to ease the anxiety of a certain person.
