Chapter 454

“Oh no, Brother Rich!” Melody quickly ran over and took some tissues for him to wipe his
mouth. “Are you really that surprised to see me?”

Yoel was out of words. ‘Is this surprise? I’m in shock! Not surprised?’ He looked at Melody while still
feeling shocked. “Why, why are you here?” “To look for you, of course,” said Melody while looking at the
food on the table. She was famished and looked at Yoel with her big and rounded clear eyes, “Brother
Rich, I’m very hungry. Can I eat something?” Yoel could not reject such big eyes and passed her some
sandwiches, “Eat it.” “Thank you.” Being the polite girl, she put down her backpack and sat across from
Yoel, and started to eat. Although she was showing eagerness and really looked like she was very
hungry, she did not eat like a dog. Instead, she bit small bites and filled her mouth like a squirrel. The
maid cleaned the floor that was dirty by Yoel. After it was cleaned, the maid saw how cute Melody was,
took more food out from the kitchen, and fed her. Melody was a polite and well mannered girl. No
matter who gave her the food, she would accept it and thank the person. Moreover, she was not stingy
in giving praises like, ‘You are so pretty and kind-hearted’ and so on… Everyone in the house was
thrilled with her presence.

Yoel looked at the empty plates shockingly and said, “Wah, you can eat a lot.”

Melody said confidently, “Of course. I’m in the growing stage now. No matter how much I eat, I will
never become fat.”

That statement had somehow hurt many ladies’ hearts. Most of them had to control their food intake
strictly, and some of them even felt their weight increase even if they only drank water.

As someone who understood the struggle most ladies had, Yoel reminded Melody, “Don’t make such
remarks in the future. You can easily offend other people.” Melody was puzzled and asked, “Why?”
“Because…” Yoel had no idea how to explain it to her. Obviously, the way Melody thought was different
from normal people. “Because not everyone had such a good body like you.”



Melody nodded as if she understood. “I see. I’ll listen to you, Brother Rich.” At that moment, Yoel
thought that he did a great job and smiled. “Good girl.” ‘It’s not that hard getting the kid to listen to you.’
He passed the glass of milk to Melody, but Melody shook her head and rejected it. “I don’t want to drink
milk.” Yoel tried to persuade her, “Why not? You can grow taller if you drink milk.” Melody replied, “I’m
not short. My current height is a good match for you now.” Yoel was dumbfounded. He did not know
what or how he should reply, so he tried to divert the

topic. “Why… Why do you dislike drinking milk?” “Nothing in particular. Aunt doesn’t like it, so I don’t
like it too. Don’t you think milk tastes like leather shoes?” Melody said with a frown.

Yoel was dumbfounded. He had been ordered to drink at least two liters of milk every day when he was
small, and he had never tasted the leather shoe smell. ‘What’s wrong with the two of them?’

It was quite impossible for Yoel to continue the milk topic. He looked at how smug Melody was looking
and tried to ask, “Does your dad and aunt know that you are here in Nadeem City?”.

Melody closed her eyes and mumbled, “They should know by now.” Yoel suddenly had an ominous
premonition and pretended to be calm. “What does it mean they should know by now? Do they know it
or not?”
