Chapter 438

Melody’s face clouded over. She shoved Shelia aside, her voice haking with anger. “You shameless woman, how dare you show your face.

e again?”

Shelia stumbled, falling to the ground. She’d chosen her outfit carefully. The long, form–fitting dress accentuated her swollen belly.

Melody’s gaze softened at the sight of the bump, but her voice remained stern. “I took you in and gave you a haven to have your baby. And this is how you repay me? You carry Juan’s child and turn to another man? You’re a disgrace.*

Shelia bowed her head, tears streaming down her face. “I was forced into it. I love Juan, you know that. The Odoms took me away, saying they knew where my father was. I had no choice.”

She sobbed, her shoulders shaking. Melody frowned, her expression wavering. “Is this true?”

Shelia nodded pitifully. “I made a mistake, but it’s because I never had a father. I just wanted to replace him.”

Melody had seen the news, knowing Shelia’s father was the head of the Blair family. Declan was a prominent figure in Seamar City, known for his charity work.

This newfound status gave Melody pause, a reason to consider forgiveness.

Sophie, standing nearby, watched Shelia’s performance with a scowl. Sophie remembered Shelia’s arrogance in the past, as if she were the hostess of the household.

Melody sighed, her voice softening. “Since you were threatened and came back voluntarily, I can forgive you. But whether Juan forgives you is up to you. You’re carrying Juan’s child now. If you don’t want to be with Edgar, I will protect you.”

“Thank you, Mrs. Nichols Sr., Shelia said gratefully, wiping away her tears.

Melody closed the teapot lid with a calm finality. “Alright, get up now.”

Shelia got up from the ground, and Melarly continued, “You can stay here for new. Don’t go anywhere. If the Blair family comes for you, you can decide if you want to go back. If the Odom family causes trouble, I have my was of handling them.”

Shelia beamed with delight Sophie opened her mouth to protest but hesitated, seeing the resolve in Melody’s eyes.

This was something Debra needed to know. A woman like Shelia couldn’t be allowed to sink her claws into Juan.

That afternoon, Sophie mustered her courage and headed to Potter Entertainment. The receptionist looked her up and down.

“May I help you?”

“I’m looking for Ms. Frazier. Is she here?”

“She is What do you need to see her about?”

Just then, Debra stepped out of the elevator, her eyebrows raising at the sight of Sophie awkwardly standing at the front desk.

“Sophie?”

Sophie’s face lit up. “Madam.”
