Chapter 134: He Understood Her

A faint smile appeared on Melody's lips, and her eyes glinted mysteriously as she locked up at the
handsome man beside her.

"Take a guess!" she said with a deep, gentle, and husky voice.

The man’s eyes gleamed dangerously with delight and amusement, and a mischievous smile played on
his lips.

Melody knew that Seth understood what she meant.

She had said those words as a challenge for Seth to find out the truth himself, and she knew that he
would.

With the Harrison family's wealth and power, Melody knew for a fact that Seth would eventually learn
the truth.

Besides, the more challenging something was, the more interesting it became! It was getting late, and
Seth knew Melody still had classes tomorrow.

He offered a hand to her and said, "Let's go.I'll send you back so you can rest.You still have classes
tomorrow"

Did this man really think of her as a young girl who had just come of age and was busy with classes
every day? ‘Whatever!’ Melody shrugged.

Melody completely ignored him and put her hands in her pockets instead.She made an elegant turn
and, with her head held high, walked past and away from him without another word.

Seth didn't mind.He wouldn't have bothered with her if he didn't know about Melody's antics.



Soon after she returned upstairs, Melody realized that Sarah had not returned yet.Melody was planning
to look for her when Seth stepped in front of her.

"You should rest," he insisted.

"You won't be able to get down in a while, anyway.Besides, Sarah is already an adult, and she has lven
with her.She'll be fine!"

Seth had a point.

Sarah was older than Melody and was already a working woman.

"You're right!" Melody agreed.

"I'll go and rest, then."

Seth let out a small, helpless chuckle when Melody did get inside her room.

The little wench didn't even say a word of goodbye to him.He shook his head while he stared at the
closed door.

But in that instant, the closed door suddenly opened, and Melody's beautiful face appeared.

Seth raised a questioning brow at the woman whose lips tilted a little with a playful smile.

Melody coughed a little, intentionally delaying her response.

Then with a low, raspy voice, she said, "I forgot to tell you..."

Seth stood mesmerized as Melody's lips formed the words she was about to say.



And as if in slow motion, Melody uttered her words, "Good night.." deliberately dragging the words a
little longer.

It wasn't until the door closed again did Seth finally snapped back to reality.

He looked at the tightly closed door, and a booming, amused laugh escaped through his lips.

He had always thought of himself as a level-headed man, and very few things could tempt him.

But he found that with Melody, Seth seemed to lose all his composure, and he couldn't figure out why.

He ruffled his hair, and with a final chuckle, he whispered, "Good night" to the tightly shut door before
leaving.

Melody woke up early the next day to attend school, but she found that Sarah's slippers were still at the
door.

It only meant that Sarah did not go home last night.

She didn't say anything but her brows still furrowed with concern.

Melody sighed and remembered Seth's words from last night.

Sarah was an adult, and she should be responsible for her actions, so Melody shouldn't worry too
much.

It was her first day of school, and setting Sarah aside, Melody still wanted to be early, so she picked up
her bag and went downstairs.

She had to take a taxi to go to school.

At least, that was what Melody thought before encountering a black Bentley car parked near her house.



Melody looked at the car then glanced around, looking for the owner.

When Melody saw no one, she shrugged and turned to leave, but the car followed and also stopped
when she did.

The window slowly rolled down, and Melody was quite surprised to see a familiar face.

It was Seth! Seth's driver, Austin, got out of the car and personally opened the passenger's seat next to
Melody.

When Melody didn't move, Austin quickly said, "Miss Melody, President Harrison has been waiting for
you since early this morning"

Austin's words made Melody raise her brows.

She whipped her head towards Seth and gave him a questioning look, but the man only looked up at
her and said gently, "Get in!"

Melody's body moved on its own, and she bent down to sit next to Seth.

The last time he had picked her up, Seth drove a Maybach car.She had never seen this Bentley car
before, so she couldn't recognize it right away.

"Did you change your car?"Melody asked after settling down on the seat.

"Hmmm” Seth grunted in response.

"Not only did he change his car, he even changed his house” Austin, who had gotten back to his seat,
muttered to himself.Seth had moved to a nearby house overnight yesterday when he found out that
Melody was staying with Sarah for the past few days.Seth's current house had been there for a long
time, but he had never stayed there until now.



The latter just decided to move into the house in the middle of last night! Then this morning, he decided
to pick up Melody to drive her to school! Austin was entirely unprepared and didn't have enough time to
arrange for Seth's usual transport.

It was why they were here, with a Bentley car instead of the Maybach.The car might have been sitting
for a long time now at the house garage, but it was still new and working.

Seth noticed Melody leaning her head on the back of the seat to rest.

"Take this time to eat breakfast first" he said before Melody could completely close her eyes.

Since they were early, Melody would still have plenty of time to sleep once they arrived at her school.

Besides, Melody didn't have to study as much at school, so she could sleep in class as much as she
wanted.He reached out and picked up the food box beside him and placed it in front of Melody.

The car they were in was spacious, and all its equipment was customized and designed for
convenience.

One of its helpful features was the small table easily controlled by a touch of a button.

Austin used the opportunity and pressed the button to raise the small table in front of Melody.

Melody frowned a little.She didn't like to eat breakfast, nor did she like getting up early.

Luke had been the one who would force her to wake up early and eat breakfast in the past.

It had been a long time since she had eaten breakfast.

Seth noticed the frown on Melody's face, so he patiently persuaded.



"You have to eat breakfast."

He opened the food box one by one to show the exquisite dishes and inside and continued, "You have
to eat at least a little"

There was garlic butter shrimp, smoked ham sandwiches, egg benedict, and fresh milk! Melody didn't
like sweet foods.

She hated milk bread the most for breakfast, but the food Seth prepared was more than acceptable to
her.Her furrowed brows gradually relaxed upon seeing the food in front of her.She didn't expect that
Seth would be this meticulous.

He even noticed such minor detail about her.But the food was too much for one person!

"Let's eat together!" Melody said.

Melody grabbed a spoon and fork, then gave Seth another set of utensils.Then, she motioned for him
to eat.

Seth's eyes glittered in amusement and surprise.He didn't expect her to invite him to eat.

But Melody did, and she even divided the food for the both of them.

The food was so good that Melody ate more than she thought she would.

If Luke saw Melody right now, he would definitely chase Seth just to meet his chef.

Melody finished her breakfast just before they arrived at the school gate.

She wiped her mouth and hands before finally getting out of the car.

And this time, before Melody left, she took the initiative and turned around to wave at Seth.



"Goodbye!" she smiled at him.

Seth nodded with a smile and watched Melody until she disappeared inside the school gate before
ordering Austin to drive.

He had a meeting that morning, but because it took half an hour to persuade Melody, all his executives
attending the meeting must be waiting for quite a while now.
