章節 239: The Darkest Secrets

At Lancaster Ancestral Mansion

Melanie bit her inner cheek as she walked into the living room where her brother, Tim, and Sylvia were already waiting. The moment Tim spotted her, he stood up and hugged her. "You're looking great," he said, pulling back to look at her. "I guess Rain is right… you should stay here with her."

He held her gaze for a moment and added, "I'm really sorry, Melanie. I haven't been much of a brother over the years. I hope you can forgive me and give me a chance."

Melanie let out a deep sigh, her expression unreadable as she noticed the gifts they'd brought. "Remembering her birthday for the first time, I see," she muttered wryly, the disbelief evident in her tone. Ever since Rain had become Mrs. Lancaster, Tim had been relentless, trying to use Melanie to connect with her.
