The Day I Kissed An Older Man

However, Lucas knew that even if Melody could distance herself from the Sanders on the surface, deep down, she had not completely let go. After all, Helen was her biological mother-how could she easily sever ties?
Melody had a soft heart, and what Lucas feared most was her kindness being taken advantage of and her being bullied. In fact, Lucas felt no sympathy for the woman who had suffered a stroke.
It was Helen's own choice to mistreat Melody. Perhaps she would not be lying in the hospital if she had not done so. It was foolish of her to never consider that no one would be there to take care of her after she had abandoned her daughter.
Helen was not actually in a state beyond recovery. It was just that neither Ethan nor Wendy were the kind of people who would take care of her when she got sick. However, Ethan was not heartless enough to not even hire a caregiver for her. After all, she was still his wife.
However, a caregiver's attentiveness could never be compared to a family member's. They were paid to do a job, and they did not show much sympathy toward the bedridden Helen.
Helen felt particularly regretful at that moment. 'If only I had been more sensible in the past and shown some care for Melody, would things have turned out differently today? Clearly, that child longed so much for my affection.'
Despite being repeatedly pushed away by her, Melody would still try to hold her hand pitifully. Unfortunately, there was no use crying over what was done.
Ethan only visited Helen once every few days while Wendy had not once visited since she was admitted.
After Melody composed herself, she ultimately decided to go see Helen. Regardless of everything, Helen gave her life. Without her, Melody would not have met Lucas. Even though Helen caused her a great deal of pain, Melody knew she needed to resolve this matter to truly move on.
Lucas did not question her decision, but he made one condition-he had to go with her when she visited.
"Even if you didn't say it, I'd still want you to be with me," Melody replied. She held Lucas' hand tightly, unconsciously exerting force. Even though she had made up her mind to see Helen, she still could not help but having mixed feelings about it.
She was afraid of seeing Helen doing well after leaving her, yet she also feared seeing her in a bad state. However, all her emotions were properly managed by Lucas, who remained steadfastly by her side. Melody could see him no matter when she looked back. He was telling her through his actions that he would always be by her side.
Under Paige's arrangement, Melody chose to go to the hospital in the late evening when there were fewer people around. Unexpectedly, the driver started to veer off course, causing Melody to frown unconsciously. The best hospital was in the city center, so why was she being taken to this place?

"Even if their relationship isn't great, she's still his wife!" Melody was furious. She had thought that after she lefty/Helen would get what she wanted. However, upon seeing the hospital where Helen was admitted, she realized that things were not as she had imagined. Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
