Melody's parents awkwardly apologized, saying they hadn't raised her well. Their clumsiness stemmed from never having bowed their heads to me before. After marrying Melody, my family automatically became a notch lower than the Winters.
Melody's parents also said they would supervise her from now on, making sure she cut ties with Alec.
As if to prove it, Melody video called Alec right there, telling him to get out of her life. Alec begged desperately, crying snot and tears, until Melody abruptly ended the call.
I watched it all with a smile. Having climbed the corporate ladder for several years and now wielding sole authority, I could see through this act in an instant.
But even if they really did break up, what's that got to do with me?
Once unfaithful, never trusted again.
Besides, Melody had deliberately tried to harm me.
"Son, give Melody another chance. She won't do it again," my parents pleaded.
