The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2115

Melody's tears flowed ceaselessly, causing a slight stinging sensation on her swollen cheeks. Lucas reached for a tissue and gently wiped away the tears from her face.

"That's why I asked you not to run off on your own. You wouldn't have gotten yourself in danger if you had listened to my arrangement!" said Lucas.

Melody, with tears in her eyes, met his gaze. She could not see his expression clearly, but she could sense that despite his harsh tone, he was deeply concerned for her.

"I... I just didn't want to trouble you." Melody's hand still clung to his clothes, unwilling to let go.

"How could you think it's trouble for me? You... Never mind. Now that you know how dangerous it is, I hope you can learn from this experience," said Lucas with a sigh.

Melody nodded obediently.

Lucas comforted her softly, "There, there. Everything's okay now. Fortunately, you managed to use the supplementary card I gave you, which alerted me that something was wrong.

"You've never used my card before, so I found it strange when you suddenly withdrew one million dollars today. I immediately tried calling you, but your phone was switched off. That was when I instantly realized something was wrong."

Melody pouted. "I lied to them, claiming I had a lot of money. Then I made a deal with them, asking them not to harm me and bring me the person who plotted against me. But..." Melody bit her lower lip out of anger. "I never thought that Wendy, my own sister, was behind this!"

She grew more agitated. Without Wendy, none of this would have happened. She would not have had to spend the day in fear.

"Wendy?" Lucas frowned deeply. He had been solely focused on Melody, not paying attention to others. He never imagined that Melody's own sister orchestrated all of this.

What kind of grudge could possibly lead Wendy to harm her own sister in such a way?

"I don't have much sisterly affection for her, but I never thought of harming her. I truly don't know what I've done to make her hate me this much!"

Melody looked helpless with her head lowered.

…

Meanwhile, Wendy was forced to go back to the police station with the police officers.

"Miss Wendy, please think before answering the questions we're about to ask you. Your statements will be recorded and may become evidence in court."

Wendy nodded dazedly. Her gaze wandered aimlessly.

'Why am I, the victim, being brought to the police station for questioning? Why wasn't Melody questioned? Why? It's not fair!'

With these thoughts in mind, Wendy could not help but ask, "Why are you only questioning me? What about Melody? Why isn't Melody brought in for questioning together with me?"

"Miss Melody is the victim, whereas you're the perpetrator! Stop talking nonsense. On what platform did you contact those thugs? Why did you hire them to harm Miss Melody? What conditions did you agree upon with them? What demands did you make? You better come clean, or else!"
