Melody’s lively figure dashed forward, leaving a refreshing breeze in her wake. The older relatives watching her from behind softened their expressions, their eyes filling with gentle fondness. 

She had always been so composed and reserved. Now, he finally seemed to have the carefree energy of a young girl. 

Seeing her excitement, Truman’s spirits lifted as well, and he raised his brows playfully, “Mel, slow down a bit,” he called out with a smile. “Don’t trip! If you get hurt, Edward will never let me hear the end of it.” 

The uncles around him laughed, sensing Truman’s pride. “There he goes again, showing off, one teased. “Truman, you’re the one worrying about her. No need to drag Edward into it!” 

Truman grinned smugly. “What can I say? She’s one of the Moores, he boasted. “I’m more than happy to look out for her!” 

Melody ran until she reached the edge of the hallway. Just a few steps more, and she’d arrive at the tea pavilion. 

As she neared, her pace slowed, her footsteps faltering slightly as a hint of apprehension washed over her. It had been four years–would her brother still hold it against her? 

Meanwhile, Timothy stood with his back to the corridor, his heart pounding wildly. The sound of approaching footsteps grew louder, and he felt as if every beat of his heart echoed through the air around him. 

His whole body tensed, fists clenched, palms damp with cold sweat. 

“Brother… is that you?” Melody’s voice trembled as she drew closer, nervously clutching the hem of her dress. 

With each step, her fingers traced the embroidered flowers on the fabric, her palms growing damp. 

The word “brother” sent a surge of emotions crashing over Timothy. Though he could hardly contain his feelings, the joy at hearing her call him was overwhelming. 

Taking a deep breath, he spun around, his face lit with elation. “Mel, it’s me! I’m here! I came to apologize.” 

But as he turned to face her, the smile froze on his face. 

Melody stood there, looking straight at him, her gaze distant and almost numb. Though she seemed to be staring at him, it felt as if she were searching for someone else beyond him, as if he wasn’t the person she truly wanted to see. Her expression held a lifeless, detached coldness. 

She had called for her “brother“-but perhaps she’d meant her other brother in the Shields. 

Melody’s steps halted, her once–lighthearted movements coming to a stop. Upon seeing Timothy, it was as if all her energy had suddenly drained away. She took a measured step back, her gaze distant, her tone chilly. “I’m sorry, I mistook you for someone else.”

Her gaze was cool, a sharpness to her eyes, and the small mole beneath her left eyelid appeared to fade in the dim light, her pupils carrying a glint of calm wariness. 

“Mel, please, hear me qut–I truly came to make things right, Timothy pleaded, panic edging into his voice. “We’re family. I wasn’t trying to be unfair before. It’s just that Suzie’s heart condition was so severe. If it got worse, she wouldn’t have …
