Chapter 151 The Tension Between Melody and Her Mother–in–Law

Finished

Kelly rushed to Oscar’s house, heart racing, only to find the scene inside chaotic and unsettling. Oscar was away on a business trip to West City, far from home and unable to come back as quickly as Kelly needed

him.

“If you’re so brave, why don’t you just go ahead and die?” Oscar’s mother, Hannah Wagner, sneered from the couch, her voice dripping with contempt. “Who are you pretending for?”

She was a strikingly beautiful woman, but her presence was domineering and cold, as if she were a queen from a drama, looking down on everyone around her. She moved with an air of superiority, making it clear she felt above anyone who dared cross her.

The floor was strewn with Melody’s belongings–clothes, jewelry, and personal items scattered carelessly. adding to the sense of chaos in the room.

“I told my son to throw this junk away when you disappeared,” Hannah continued, raising her voice. “But he refused. What’s the point of keeping this nonsense?”

Kelly, frantic, scanned the room, her eyes searching for Melody.

“Where’s Melody?” Kelly demanded, her voice tight with anger.

Hannah shot her an icy glare and turned to the housekeeper. “Who let this person in here?” she barked.

“I’m a colleague of Melody’s. Where is she?” Kelly responded, her patience thinning quickly.

“Get out of here! Do you think you can just walk in like this? It’s filthy,” Hannah scoffed, eyeing Kelly with disdain. The moment she heard that Kelly worked with Melody, her expression turned even more disgusted, as if she believed anyone associated with Melody was beneath her.

“I’m a doctor, and I’m telling you right now–your lips are turning blue, and your complexion is darkening. You don’t have much time left,” Kelly said, trying to keep calm as she clenched her fists. She turned to leave the room, determined to find Melody.

Hannah didn’t immediately react. After a moment, she snapped, “Who does she think she is? This is my house–get out!”

Just then, Oscar burst through the door, breathless, and saw the housekeeper standing in front of Kelly. “What’s going on? She’s my friend. What are you doing?” he demanded, his voice filled with frustration.

Hannah huffed and turned away, silent and unmoved.

“Where’s Melody?” Oscar’s voice was laced with anger, his patience running thin.

Hannah didn’t answer him.

Oscar stormed into the bedroom. Inside, he found Melody sitting on the edge of the bed. Her wrist was cut, but the blood was only a small trickle, the result of a weak, hesitant attempt. She held the knife, trembling, unable to summon the strength to press it down further.

“Melody…” Kelly rushed over and embraced her.

Melody’s eves were swollen her face twisted in anger Her whole body was stiff as if she was holding hack a

“Don’t be mad, don’t be mad,” Kelly whispered softly, trying to comfort her.

Oscar stood at a distance, his expression dark as he watched, his silence heavy in the room.

Kelly couldn’t help but wonder what was going through his mind. She felt a pang of sorrow for Melody. If Oscar ever defended his mother just once, she would pack up and leave with Melody. But Oscar said nothing, standing there in silence.

“Oscar… let’s get a divorce,” Melody finally said after a long pause, her voice heavy with resignation.

Since returning from Solmaris, Melody had viewed Oscar as her emotional anchor. Just as Kelly had found comfort in Eric during her time away, Melody had turned to Oscar. He had been her rock. But deep down, she knew Oscar wasn’t like Eric, and he hadn’t remarried. She even felt guilty for considering divorce in the past, driven by the tension with her mother–in–law.

Oscar had dealt with Hannah’s demands for years, never remarried, and waited for Melody to return. That wasn’t easy to endure.

After returning, Melody hadn’t mentioned divorce, but the confrontation with Hannah had shattered whatever hope she had left. Hannah had barged in and accused her of being promiscuous in Solmaris. She claimed she had contracted a disease and demanded she leave the house.

Melody was furious beyond words. Living like this was unbearable–it was torture for both her and Oscar. She knew she couldn’t make Oscar sever ties with Hannah, so the only way forward was for her to leave.

Kelly looked at Oscar, waiting for him to speak, to stand up for Melody.

“Oscar, you’ve been working all day. Don’t waste your energy on her,” Hannah called from the living room, her voice annoyingly bright as if nothing was wrong. “She’s always causing trouble. Come eat. You’ve worked so hard. Don’t you care about your

mother?”

“I had the maid prepare your favorite dishes,” she added, still acting as though nothing had happened, her

tone sugar–sweet.

It was clear she treated her son like royalty, while her daughter–in–law was nothing more than an afterthought.

After a long silence, Oscar finally approached. He looked at Melody’s wrist but said nothing. Without a word, he took the iodine from Kelly and began tending to the wound.

Melody tried to pull her wrist away, but Oscar gently held it in place, applying the iodine with practiced

care.

Kelly stepped aside, quietly observing the scene.
