Timothy stood at the entrance of Regal Glade. Despite everything he’d been through–the relentless exhaustion, the blows he’d taken–he cut a striking figure in a black shirt, its collar open, sleeves casually rolled up, giving him an air of effortless elegance. 

A chilly wind swept by, and he draped the camel–colored cashmere coat over his shoulders. His expression was unreadable as he locked eyes with the gatekeeper, his gaze edged with a cold, unyielding pride. 

No matter how dire the circumstances might seem, he carried an inherent confidence–the kind the Shields instilled from an early age, combined with his own natural talent and strength. 

The guards at Regal Glade felt a jolt at his commanding presence. 

This was their first time seeing Melody too, and they were entirely unaware of her brother’s significance. 

With newfound respect in their voices, they said, “Sir, please wait a moment. We need to inform Madam first.” 

Timothy frowned. Though his concern for Melody was bubbling up inside, he understood that Regal Glade wasn’t an easy place to get into. Resigned, he gave a curt nod, his dignified figure waiting outside the gate. 

As he stood there, his phone wouldn’t stop buzzing–Suzanna was calling. He knew she was out of danger and awake; that was why he felt assured enough to come find Melody and apologize. 

But strangely, seeing Suzie’s name on the screen only made him feel irritated. He ignored her calls seven or eight times, letting them go unanswered. 

Then, another call came in, this time from Kenrick. 

Timothy’s gaze dropped to the phone display, his long lashes casting a slight shadow that made the small mole under his left eyelid—a feature he shared with Melody–stand out. 

He hesitated but finally answered on the third call. 

“Timothy, where are you?” 

“Why haven’t you answered any of Suzie’s calls? Aren’t you the one who cares about her most? How could you leave her alone in the hospital? You’ve really let us down!” 

Kenrick’s words came out in a steady stream of reproach. 

Since being acknowledged by the Paynes, Kenrick had grown close to Timothy, not just as a business partner but as a sworn brother. None of the Shields knew about Kenrick and Melody’s past. But Kenrick’s –affection for Melody had always been obvious, and everyone assumed they were together. 

When Melody took Suzie’s place marrying into the Moores, they deliberately kept Kenrick in the dark. Conveniently, he had been on a business trip to Neflye at the time, which allowed the Shields to breathe a little easier. 

Over the past month, Kenrick and Melody hadn’t been in contact. But now, Kenrick’s concern for Suzanna was starkly evident, creating an odd contrast.

Timothy’s expression cooled, a sharp, distant chill coming over him. His lips curled into a hint of mockery. “Kenrick, weren’t you on a business trip to Neflye? How did you end up in Suzanna’s hospital room?” 

There was a pause on the other end. Kenrick glanced over at Suzanna’s swollen, blistered face. She was curled up in the corner of the room, trembling, tears rolling down her cheeks, pitifully vulnerable. 

“Ken, don’t blame Timothy. My allergy isn’t his fault, and it has nothing to do with Mel either. What happened in court is between me and Carson, and, understandably, Mel lost her temper. If it would make her feel better, I’d even lose my face for it…
