Chapter 64

When Melissa's grandpa opened the door and came out, he saw Melissa kneeling in front of the door. It
was raining heavily and the rain poured all over Melissa's body. Her hair had stuck to ear. Moreover,
her head was wrapped around by bandage. The rain could make her wounds become inflamed! So he
shouted, "Oh, why are you kneeling here? Kid, what's wrong with you?"

Hearing this, Melissa's grandma stood up and glanced around. She was shocked. Then she screamed
loudly, urging her grandpa to go in and take out the umbrella. She rushed out herself and protected
Melissa with her body.

Soon, her grandpa came out with two umbrella for Melissa. But she had been in the rain for half an
hour. She was shivering with cold with her lips turning purple. Her grandma persuaded her, "Why do
you have to do this? My dear child, what good will it do to you? Do you think your father will forgive you
if you act like this?" "Get up now. You are totally wet!"

When her grandma hold her while her grandpa was holding the umbrella for them. Also her grandpa
persuaded, "Wake up, Melissa. You can't keep kneeling. Your dad is in a fit of anger. He won't forgive
you!" "Wake up! Don't be silly!"

But Melissa shook her head determinedly, "No!" "I won't get up if my father doesn't forgive me!"

Her grandparents had been persuading her for a while, but failed. They shouted inside, "Jenny, Jenny,
come and see your daughter!" "Jenny!"

Melissa's mother was freaked out when she saw the scene. Regardless of the rain, she rushed towards
the woman and yelled, "What are you doing?" Get up now. Is it useful kneeling like this? What else can
you do except abuse yourself? "Do you think your father will feel sorry for you after he knows this?"

Seeing her mother coming out, Melissa looked at her and said, "Mom, it makes your heart ache to see
me suffer. Now that you are here, why doesn't dad come out?" "Why can't he forgive me?"



Hearing this, Jenny suddenly got angry. She pushed her away, pointed at her and scolded, "Do you
think I care about you?" Do you think you can get our forgiveness in this way? You did something
wrong and you don't even think about it. How can you try to earn our sympathy through what you did as
a child? "Melissa, now you're a grown-up. Don't you think it's childish to do this kind of thing?"

Her grandma asked Jenny to persuade her daughter, but she didn't expect her to come out like this. It
was fine if she didn't persuade Melissa and she even scolded her severely. So she couldn't help
scolding, "Jenny, what are you talking about?" "Look at her. Why do you scold her? Why are you so
stone-hearted? Do you want her to freeze to death here?"

Jenny said angrily, "Mom, you have been spoiling her too much. That's why she is in trouble!" Do you
remember how much we opposed her to learn acting in entertainment circle? But you and father
insisted on supporting her. You almost get her into an acting university. But what does she look like?
Does she like what you taught her? The entertainment circle is like a big hotchpotch. How many people
who entered it could come out clean? Even if she had become an actor, she would also still be a bad
girl. Now that she has made so many mistakes, she doesn't want to compensate. Instead, she wants to
play the trick like she did when she was a child. Does she think that we will forgive her if she kneel
down in the rain to abuse herself? "Melissa, do you think that your mother will spoil you forever and
your father will spoil you forever?" Jenny didn't look sad and she scolded Melissa seriously.

Looking at her cruel mother, Melissa burst into tears all of a sudden. She said, "Mom, I don't mean to
deny it. I know I was wrong. I want to make it up to you, but you and dad don't give me a chance,
mom!"

At the same time, her grandma was also excited. She looked at Jenny and said, "Oh, why do you
blame me in the end? It's me who let my children to learn acting. Is that wrong? Can't a child have a
hobby? If she wants to do it, she can do it happily. It's not a bad thing. Why can't I support her?" Well,
now that she's a bad girl, it's all my fault. But why didn't you object at the beginning? Then why did you
still give her tuition and let her go to the movie academy? And who drove her to school with great joy?



When she played the first part of the play, you would come back and forth from the TV every day to
check the channels. You browsed one scene after another and you couldn't help watching it dozens of
times. If you were not happy about her acting at that time, how could you act like this? "Well, now that
she made a mistake, you can only blame her. How could you change your mind quickly as a mother?"

"Mom!" Jenny cried out, "We spoiled her so much that she could get whatever she wants. But now we
can't spoil her anymore. We can't let her do whatever she wants. I don't know what terrible things she
will do in the future as long as she is still in the entertainment circle!" "So this time, I won't indulge her
anymore!"

"Then what do you want?" Her grandma asked.

With annoyance and helplessness, Jenny didn't respond. Instead, she turned to Melissa kneeling on
the ground and looking at them with pitiful eyes. And she said, "Melissa, it's not easy this time. Do you
think we will forgive you by playing a trick?" "We won't care whether you die here for knee or not!"

"How could you be so cruel as a mother?" Grandfather said as he couldn't stand it anymore.

Jenny grabbed the umbrella and said, "What are you doing here?" "Do you still want her to make
mistakes?" Then she walked back to the door. Her grandparents were also in the rain, so they went
back with her. But her grandma was still so furious that she stamped her feet and scolded Jenny. But
regardless of this, Jenny stood at the door, pointed at lonely Melissa and said, "Think about it. What are
you going to do in the future?" If you don't behave well, we won't take you as our daughter even if you
die on your knees! "Don't be silk or just kneel here!" Then she dragged her parents in forcibly and
slammed the door of the courtyard.

"Mom!" Melissa called her name, but Jenny ignored her.

Kneeling in the rain, Melissa held an umbrella. After a while, there was a voice of grandpa from the
door, "Melissa, just go. Listen to your mother. They don't need your apology. If you keep kneeling, they



will only be angrier and even blame you more!"

"What should I do to gain their forgiveness?" Shouted Melissa.

"Alas!" Her grandpa sighed and answered, "Perhaps they will forgive you if they stay there for a long
time!" "So you'd better not come here these days!"

"But, grandfather..."

"Well, don't say anything more. Listen to me, go back home early!" "Don't kneel down!" After that, he
talked to her grandma for a while. Then he left and there was silence behind the door.

Kneeling in the rain, Melissa was too wet to tell whether it was tears or rain. However, before she could
finish what she had just said, she was not worried that her parents would not forgive her, but that her
father would get sick! Her father was seriously ill and couldn't be put off any longer. However, in current
situation, they wouldn't forgive her. Neither would they listen to her!

So she knelt for another while. When she saw there was no result, she stood up, went under grandpa's
roof, took out a paper note and pen from her wet bag and wrote on them: "Mom, no matter how you
blame me, I admit it. But Dad's illness can't be dragged down. If you're good for him, please persuade
him to go to the hospital!" She tucked the bag into the crack of her grandfather's door and walked away
disappointedly with a heavy heart.

Melissa looked back at her grandpa's house and she went away reluctantly. She didn't know whether
her parents would forgive her eventually. She would become a lone wolf in this world if they didn't
forgive her.

After Melissa left, Jenny opened the door. In fact, she had been waiting for her behind the door. She
had been standing in the rain for a long time before Melissa left. And when she opened the door, she



saw the note that Melissa had left. She picked it up and had a look and her eyes couldn't help crying.

Her grandpa came from the other side with saying, "Since you don't want her to leave, why did you do
this to her?" You are torturing her as well as yourself, aren't you? "Your daughter is your own flesh,
why?"

Jenny wiped her tears and said, "Dad, you don't understand. If I don't do this to give her a lesson. She
will only make bigger mistakes in the entertainment industry in the future. If her father can't forgive her,
can we keep harmony in the future?"

Grandfather sighed helplessly.

Melissa walked out of the alley, cold and gloomy. Her body had turned purple with cold, but not as cold
as the bitterness in her heart. Suddenly, she found a car parking at the alley. It was so familiar that she
knew whose car it was without thinking. But why did he come? Was he here to see her down and out?

Melissa stood there, staring at the car. Colin got out of the car and walked towards her with a black
umbrella. Melissa didn't understand why Colin kept following her. He must have seen her kneeling in
the alley, but he did nothing. Did he come here to laugh at her?

All of a sudden, a laugh broke out from the corners of Melissa's mouth. Yet, she didn't know what she
was laughing at. It was so bleak that she felt so hopeless. She didn't know what the significance is in
this world.

Colin said calmly, "I'm here to pick you up."

He sounded so calm, as if nothing had happened. This man could always be calm to treat her well after
hurting her, as if nothing had happened. Melissa was tired of him of this and hated him. She clenched
her teeth and slapped his face hard.



It was cold here. Because the temperature would always be low in such a rainy day. At the same time,
Colin flew into a great rage. He turned around and shouted, "Melissa, what are you doing!" "I don't
have that much patience!"

Melissa looked at him, still sneering. But gradually, she couldn't stand it and fell down. She passed out
in the running rain and remained unconscious.
