A Whisper that went unheard novel Chapter 261

Melody was scared of the judgmental gazes of the onlookers. It was also terrifying to think that another stranger might show up to secretly take pictures of her or stalk her.

However, she heard Jeremy's explanation. "Pay no heed to the stuff on the internet. It's losing popularity as we speak."

She was immediately stunned. Casting a glance at him, she was about to ask him something, but she dropped it when it seemed like he wouldn't say anything.

…

The middle-aged couple had been locked up in the police department for as long as it took Melody to recover from her fever. When she saw them, they were visibly struggling, emotionally and mentally.

That said, they didn't forget the roles they had been given the moment they saw her.

"You rich people think you can get away with anything! Not only did you take my daughter's spot, but you even locked us up. How dare you guys say that you aren't diffident?"

The moment the man fixed his gaze on her, it felt like insects were creeping up on her skin, revolting and unbearable.

However, Melody stood her ground, explaining, "I don't know who your daughter is. I got a job at Jembina Hospital fair and square. The records are kept in the hospital, and they can be confirmed, too."

He immediately retorted, "Impossible! You're deaf. How could you land a job at a hospital, much less a fine one like Jembina Hospital…"

Before he could finish, Jeremy immediately interrupted him.

Jeremy had a cold and intimidating air about him, to begin with. However, his expression was as dark as coal, and his gaze was eerily calm as he stared at the middle-aged couple.

The man couldn't help but shrink when he saw Jeremy's expression.

Insisting in a deep voice, Jeremy mentioned, "Melody didn't take your daughter's spot. The hospital had presented evidence to you two. If you insist on making such a false accusation, she has the right to sue you for slander."

The middle-aged man was stubborn and wanted to retort, but Jeremy continued.

"I don't mind giving you two a helping hand if you want to stay behind bars for much longer."
