Melody was furious as she walked up the stairway to the third floor.
The bodyguards followed behind her.
Several bodyguards in suits halted her at the stairway and told her coldly to leave.
âMiss Hernandez, please stop right there.
We have strict orders from Mr.
Simmons himself.
No one goes into the third floor except him.
Please go back now.
â
âI will be his wife soon.
How dare you try to stop me?â
Melody frowned at him and tried to push past the bodyguard.
But he stood his ground and didnât let her pass.
âIâm sorry, Miss Hernandez.
Mr.
Simmons has instructed us that no one is allowed to go to this floor without his permission.
You canât go either.
Please understand that we are just doing our job.
â
âI donât care about that.
I want to go in now.
Iâm going to see who would stop me!â
Enraged, Melody signaled her own bodyguards.
They immediately understood and charged ahead to attack the Simmons familyâs bodyguards.
A chaotic brawl broke out, with both sides fiercely fighting to gain the upper hand.
But despite their efforts, Melodyâs bodyguards were no match for the quick and skillful guards on the third floor.
âWhatâs the deal? Werenât those supposed to be famous martial arts masters? And yet, you canât even handle a group of bodyguards?â
Melodyâs eyes narrowed as she glared at Galen in disdain.
Galen shifted uncomfortably.
âI swear to God, Miss Hernandez, these guys can really fight.
But the people Mr.
Simmons hired are not weak either.
Theyâre seasoned professionals.
â
Melody let out a frustrated sigh.

âSo, what are we supposed to do now? We canât just return home with empty hands!â
Desperate for a way out, Melodyâs eyes darted to the dagger hanging from Galenâs waist.
Melody swiftly grabbed the dagger and held it up in front of her.
âStop!â
She yelled at the bodyguards and pressed the dagger against her wrist.
âIf you donât let me through, Iâll slit my wrist right now!â
The guards froze at her sudden outburst and gazed at her with astonishment.
âMiss Hernandez, you canât harm yourself just for this.
Itâs not worth it.
