âHow could you treat me Like this! Cyrus! I love you more than anyone else.
Is this how youâd pay me for my love? Why are you this cruel to me? You are lying to me, arenât you? You wonât really call off our engagement, right?â
Melodyâs tears flowed freely as she protested.
Cyrus face was cold.
He looked so angry as he stared down at her making a fool of herself.
âMiss Hernandez! Mr.
Simmons was telling the truth.
The Hernandez family has confirmed it just now.
â
Galen interjected, helping Melody up from the ground.
âYour parents have instructed me to bring you back immediately.
â
âNo! I wonât go back.
No one can make me!â
Melody struggled to free her hands from Galenâs grip, but it was of no use.
âMr.
Simmons is angry right now.
Letâs leave so that you can both calm down first.
The Hernandez family will assist you with the engagement!â
He then hauled her downstairs with force and nodded at his men.
âWhat are you still standing there for? Letâs take our leave!â
They left the villa feeling defeated and dispirited.
Meanwhile, in Jenniferâs room, Hilliard began to examine her using the medical equipment he brought.
Lucinda sat on a small sofa, observing his every move while she also watched Jennifer on the bed.
Although Jennifer and Eleanor were half-sisters, they looked nothing alike.

Eleanor looked quite fragile, and she always used that to her advantage to play the victim.
In contrast, Jennifer had a natural grace about her.
However, Lucinda didnât know her well enough to judge just yet.
Based on how Jennifer had expertly managed the Turner Group for years, it was safe to say she was one ambitious woman.
She couldnât possibly be as flimsy and close-minded as her sister.
âHilliard, how is she doing?â
Lucinda rushed over to assist Hilliard when she saw that he was packing up the equipment.
âSheâs doing alright.
Her brain function is recovering, which is a good sign for the rest of her body functions.
â
Hilliard handed over the medical report to her.
She quickly scanned the report and asked, âIs there any way we can wake her up sooner?â
He pondered for a moment and said, âItâs possible, but weâd need to perform a procedure.
Sheâd wake up in a week.
