Reborn To Remarry My Ex Husband (Melody)

Chapter 208 Take The Card

"Martin, don't worry; I'm very likable. My mom, dad, and brothers will dote on me just as much as you all do, Melody had assured Martin confidently just before they parted ways. Deep down, she yearned for family bonds, something Martin understood well.

So, he sent her back to the Shield family, hoping to give her a chance to experience the connection with her true kin.

After Timothy watched them say their farewells, he noticed Melody dejectedly walking back to the villa.

He intended to approach her and help her pick out a room, but the noise from Shield's Mansion caught

his attention

Someone screamed. Call an ambulance! Ms. Shield has collapsed from a heart attack!"

Timothy paused in his steps toward Melody, then immediately dashed toward the villa.

To him. Suzanna was far more important than a newly returned little sister.

As time passed. Timothy became busy and seldom returned to Shield's Mansion.

When he did. he sometimes saw Melody quietly massaging her mother's shoulders on the couch. The tender scene of their maternal bond filled him with joy That tenderness led him to pay more attention to his new sister.

He assumed that someone must have arranged a room for Melody long ago.

However, it wasn't until a year later, when the issue of her living in the maid's attic came to light, that he truly grasped the situation.

Upon learning the news, he felt as if he had been struck in the chest.

It turned out that Melody had endured so much hardship right under his nose.

Two years had passed since Melody arrived at the Shield family, but she still wore the exquisite princess

dress she had on when she first returned home.

The hem of the dress had faded from washing.

One day, he could no longer stand the sight of it and called out to Melody, "Mel, take this card

"Go get yourself some pretty dresses to wear.

"Girls can spend money on appearance, so don't worry about wasting it. Suzie buys new dresses every month, even though many of them will never be worn twice." Tim not encouraging you to be extravagant: 1 just want you to treat yourself better."

He stood before Melody, trying to press the card into her hand, but she refused to take it.

Just as he wondered how to get her to accept it, he noticed Suzanna standing in the hallway, watching

them from a distance.

For reasons he couldn't quite explain, a sudden wave of embarrassment washed over him, and he lost his grip on the card, which fell to the ground.

Suzanna approached with a gentle sniile, playfully chiding him as she walked over. "Tim, you're so naughty! How dare you talk about me behind my back to Mel?" Timothy scratched his nose with an embarrassed laugh, crouching to pick up the card as he explained, "Mel's dress looks a bit worn out."

Suzanna affectionately squeezed Melody's arm and replied, "Tim, that's where you don't understand." "This dress was bought by her brother, Martin, in the Tucker family, with his first paycheck. It's special to her. Just handing her a card to buy fancier, newer dresses isn't going to replace that." "Besides, Tim, you're so out of touch. Retro styles are popular now-many clothes and shoes are even designed to look vintage."

Timgdy wasn't well-versed in fashion, and for reasons he couldn't quite place, Suzanna's words made Melody's faded dress seem even more unbearable to look at.

Glancing at Melody, he said in a cold tone, 'So that's the reason. Melody, is this dress bought by Martin?"

A year had passed, and he now understood everything about Martin, the young prodigy in black who had once been hailed as a flecting genius in finance.

Melody lifted her gaze to Timothy's severe expression, thinking of Martin, now trapped in a vegetative state, and of the Tuckers resentment toward her. These thoughts filled her heart with sorrow.

She nodded and replied, "Yes"

Timothy's gaze drifted over her dress, and it dawned on him that, like Suzie, Melody also had a monthly allowance of 300,000 dollars. How could she possibly not afford a new dress?

His concern suddenly felt both ridiculous and unnecessary,

With a wry smile, he placed the bank card into Suzanna's hand, addressing Melody in a detached tone. "If you're so fond of that dress, there's no need to get a new one.

"Suzie, your wardrobe could use an update, too," he added.

"Take this card and spend as you wish."

With that, he strode off, unaware that Melody's bright yes slowly dimmed behind him.
