Yoel stared at Melody, and not a single word came out of his mouth.
It was the first time he saw her in simple clothes. It looked perfect on her, as if it was custom made to
her body. She looked like an angel.
He thought he saw Sage and not Melody. Their unfazed expressions were like two peas in a pod.
Nat looked up and down at Melody, and she was slightly threatened. “Who are you?”
Melody thought for a moment and said, “If you’re his ex-girlfriend, I’m his next girlfriend.”
What did she mean by that? Yoel’s lips moved. He felt his waist aching again. Nat furrowed her brows.
“You’re a high schooler at most. Are you even of legal age? Such shameless words coming out of your
mouth. Where are your parents, little girl? Go home.”
Melody slowly raised her brows and replied coldly, “I’m sorry. This is my home.” Nat was taken aback.
Quest heard the commotion and came over. He wore the same kind of simple clothes and looked
dashingly handsome. “What’s up?” Quest naturally positioned himself in front of Melody. She said
lightly, “Troublemakers. Just get her out of here. We won’t be treating her.” She grabbed Yoel’s neck
and ushered him into the consultation room with her strong arms as she spoke.
Yoel scowled, “Hey, hey, be gentle! My waist!” Yoel finally understood how it felt like to be entirely
dependent as he lay on the consultation bed.
He felt weak, frail, and helpless all at once. He was asked to take his shirt off, and his upper body
muscles were prominent and visible. It was perfect, except for a few scars on his back.
The sphenoid on his back was visibly gorgeous.
He trembled slightly, and the sphenoid bone looked like a butterfly fluttering its wings.
Yoel looked at Melody preparing the needles. He felt a need to discuss it with her nicely.” Melody, … I
think it might be best for Quest to take over my case. You don’t have to treat me yourself…”
Melody continued preparing with no emotions and replied lightly, “Quest is not free right now. It’s not
going to take long, so I’ll do it myself.” Why was she being so adamant about it?
Yoel was on the brink of losing it. He muttered, “First of all, I trust you… I think I should just stretch the
pain out and forget the needle treatment, really…”
Melody looked up at Yoel with her large dark eyes and said, “Don’t tell me you’re afraid of needles?”
Yoel was dumbfounded. He was afraid of her, not of some needles!
He thought about it, but he did not say it out loud. Yoel was worried about hurting her pride, so he
decided to give it a go and stop worrying about it.
Yoel looked brave. “Fine, just do it!”
Melody never doubted herself. She only thought that Yoel was a coward. “Don’t worry, Yoel. It’ll be
quick and pain-free.”
Yoel felt like she was about to execute him, and she was telling him that he would die in a quick and
painless way. “Come on. I’m all ready.”
