A Whisper that went unheard novel Chapter 226

Although Melody could simply tell Tiffany that Jeremy was busy with work, she couldn't help feeling disappointed and sad being alone all the time.

However, she forced herself to smile nonetheless.

After all, she had known from the start what she was getting into when she began dating Jeremy.

To Jeremy, his job always came first. Besides, Melody didn't even know how to bring it up to Jeremy. The comments online were filthy, and some even contained maliciously edited photos of her. She didn't want Jeremy to see those things.

However, Melody didn't expect Jeremy to return to the department that afternoon.

Just as she was getting off work, Jeremy appeared by the nurses' station, clearly waiting for her. "Go change your clothes," he said.

Melody paused in confusion.

Then, Jeremy added, "Matthew's back."

Melody's eyes immediately lit up.

Matthew was the person Jeremy had contacted on the island to handle Echo's travel arrangements. His return meant Echo was finally here.

The gloom that had weighed on her heart for days cleared instantly upon hearing that Echo had arrived.

After changing clothes, she looked up at Jeremy with eyes sparkling with joy. "I thought we'd have to wait a bit longer. I didn't expect Echo to be here so soon."

Jeremy nodded. "He got back once the paperwork was finalized."

"But why didn't Matthew ever mention anything to me?" Melody curiously asked.
