A Whisper that went unheard novel Chapter 214

Jeremy assumed that Melody would care deeply about this matter.

When he glanced at her, he noticed a brief flicker of sadness in her eyes. But at the next second, she quietly said, "If I can't find them, then maybe it's just not meant to be. If we really had a connection, they wouldn't have lost me in the first place."

Though Melody didn't hide the disappointment in her voice, her eyes remained clear and bright as she continued, "Anyway, to me, the people I have by my side are more important than relatives I've never met."

Her gaze was so sincere and pure that Jeremy suddenly felt something deep within his heart stir. It was a soft, tender feeling—but it came with a slight ache, as though a tightly shut shell had cracked open just a little.

Because of the unexpected robbery incident, Ophelia no longer felt like extending their vacation and decided to return home two days later.

Jeremy had no objections. However, since he'd already checked out of his room, he moved directly into Melody's suite.

Drawn by her curiosity, she couldn't help looking their way. The man holding the puppies gave her a friendly smile. "Miss, would you like to adopt a cute little puppy to take home?"

Melody hopefully asked, "Is that okay?"

"Of course!" the man said, proudly patting his chest. "These are puppies from my dog. Our home can't accommodate them all, so I'm here looking for good homes."
