Chapter 91: Chapter 91 Melody, marry me, let’s give our baby a home... (Extra)
Actually, after saying this, Serena Sterling thought about adding another sentence, ’Melody, why don’t you just turn your male friend into a boyfriend and claim such a charming handsome guy for yourself!’
But considering the three were standing too close, her words would likely be overheard by him, so to avoid unnecessary embarrassment, Serena kept this thought to herself and didn’t voice it out.
After the inner jest, Serena looked at Melody Parker and asked, "Melody, what’s going on with you two?"
Melody Parker smiled and raised the red rose in her hand, "Neal said he wanted to celebrate the perfect success of my fashion show and take me to a Western restaurant for dinner."
"Oh," Serena nodded understandably, "Then you two go ahead, I’ll head home first."
Melody Parker called out to Serena, "Luna, come with us, actually you deserve the celebration more than I do."
Serena waved her hand and declined, "No need, celebrate with me some other day, you two go ahead, I’ll take off, bye bye."
With that, Serena dashed off.
She wasn’t stupid, it was clear that the handsome guy had ulterior motives toward Melody, and she didn’t want to be an unnecessary third wheel.
If she brainlessly went along, she’d probably be frozen to death by that handsome guy’s icy gaze.
Though it was but a few simple words exchanged, she saw clearly that Neal liked Melody Parker.
The way he looked at Melody was gentle, indulgent.
While when he looked at her, even though he was smiling, it was completely different.
Neal’s gaze toward her was calm, with no warmth at all.
Perhaps Melody was too caught up to notice, but she could see it clearly!
Melody’s life had been tough, unloved by her father and mother from an early age.
No, that’s incorrect. She lost her mother young and met a peculiar, unfeeling father, as well as a stepmother and sister who targeted her at every turn, wishing her harm.
All these years, Melody lived a hard life, raising her baby on her own.
Now that such an excellent man was pursuing her, Serena truly felt happy for Melody.
Thinking about it, Serena’s little face scrunched in trouble, "Sigh, without a boyfriend, or even a male friend pursuing me, I’m a pitiful single aristocrat, so I can only go home and fry an egg to celebrate myself."
Suddenly, thinking of Daddy, Serena’s face scrunched even more.
Her dark eyes looked at the morning star on the horizon, "Daddy, if you were here, surely you’d be happy for me, right?"
...
After Serena left, Neal Galan gently looked at Melody Parker, "Let’s go, Melody."
Melody Parker nodded, "Yeah, let’s go."
Neal’s custom Ferrari sports car was parked not far from the film garden.
The two walked out of the film garden, Melody sat in the passenger seat, Neal drove, and they arrived at Victorian after 10 minutes.
Neal had already reserved a spot at Victorian, and upon arrival, they were immediately guided by a server.
In the typical European-style decorated Western restaurant, guided by the server, Neal and Melody, one after the other, took their seats.
Soon after they sat, the exquisite Western cuisine and mellow red wine were brought over by the server.
After the server left, Neal raised his glass and clinked lightly with Melody, "Congratulations, Melody."
Melody smiled, "Thank you."
Neal took a small sip of the wine in his glass and put it down.
His brown eyes looked at Melody and said, "Melody, you don’t know, I’ve been almost driven away by my grandfather recently. Now that your show has ended perfectly, it’s time for you to play your part."
As he spoke, without waiting for Melody to respond, Neal said directly, "Melody, I’ve planned to take you to see my grandfather tomorrow."
Melody, having just picked up her knife and fork to start eating, paused.
She looked at Neal, smiling with curved eyes, "Neal, really! It’s not like I’m telling you, but can’t you just find a girl to marry? Lying to your grandfather like this is not good."
While speaking, Melody nodded in agreement with her own words, "Yes, Neal, this is really not right, you should find a reliable girl to marry soon, I can’t accompany you to deceive the old man anymore."
Neal’s brown eyes immediately darkened.
He looked at Melody seriously and said, "Melody, do you think finding a girl to marry is like grocery shopping, just picking the fresh one to buy."
Then his gaze on Melody became even more passionate, "Melody, why don’t we get married? Then it wouldn’t be lying to grandfather."
Hearing Neal’s abrupt words, Melody was momentarily stunned.
Then she reacted and smiled, "Neal, don’t joke with me."
As she spoke, she looked at Neal and continued, "Such a joke isn’t funny at all, and it’s inappropriate for the two of us."
Neal’s long hand covered Melody’s small hand on the dining table, looking deeply into her eyes with his brown ones, "Melody, you know how serious I am; I wasn’t joking at all."
Melody withdrew her hand in the act of putting down her knife and fork.
She gathered her smile and looked earnestly at Neal, "Neal, I..."
Neal gazed affectionately at Melody and interrupted her unfinished words, "Melody, I like you, I want to marry you, I have wanted to marry you for a long time, for many years."
Melody shook her head and voiced her rejection: "Neal, you’re mistaken. It’s just your habit, over the years I’ve been like your family and kin, not a lover; it’s all just your habit. Neal, in the future, you’ll understand when you meet that one person who makes your heart skip."
Finishing her serious words, Melody wore a smile again, trying to lighten the atmosphere, "Besides, how can someone like me with a child be a match for our young master Neal?"
Neal looked at Melody, his long hand reaching out again, tightly holding her small hand, "Melody, there’s no matching or not matching, I am serious! Melody, marry me, let’s give our child a complete home, a home with a daddy and mommy, shall we?"
Melody immediately pulled her hand back.
"Neal, stop it, we’re not suitable."
After saying that, her dark eyes looked at Neal and asked, "Neal, after all these years, do you still not understand me?"
Neal felt heartbroken: Melody, I understand you!
How could I not understand you?
After so many years, if I didn’t understand you, why would I wait until now?
If I didn’t understand you, perhaps you would have long been my wife.
In the end, he couldn’t bear to force her, couldn’t bear to make things difficult for her.
Seeing Melody’s delicate face, Neal relented once more, "Alright, Melody, I won’t pressure you, we’ll talk after the act tomorrow."
Melody: "..."
Sigh...
