The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2551

"Is she planning to wait here in the ward until the sun sets?" Melody mumbled to herself with a puzzled tone, lowering her head as she washed her hands.

When the sound of someone entering the restroom reached her ears, she looked up, only to freeze in place by the person before her. "What are you doing here?"

Wendy's smile was laced with malice. "You're asking that as if you own this hospital. There aren't any restrictions on who can enter or exit this place, is there?"

Melody's frown deepened at the sight of her 'sister', and her mood soured instantly. She shut off the faucet and planned on leaving, but Wendy reached out to stop her.

"Is this how you treat your sister? Not even a polite greeting?" Wendy taunted. "I bet your fans will be so utterly disappointed if they see this side of you."

Melody shot her a cold glance. "Who are you calling your sister? Sorry, but I don't have any family, much less a sister. My fans know this. They don't even know who you are."

"Still as stubborn as ever. You'd never face me so confidently if it weren't for Lucas. The only difference that separates us is having a backer. Hopefully that'll be enough for you to stick around in this industry until the very end."

Melody paused briefly and took a deep breath. She had always been steadfast despite the public perceiving her to rely on the Riveras since she had been with Lucas, For that reason, Wendy had no right to judge her.

Finding it pointless to engage Wendy any further, Melody walked past her to exit the restroom. Alas, Wendy wrapped an arm around Melody from behind, muffling her cry as a cloth soaked in chemicals covered her mouth and nose.

Meanwhile, Melody's unconscious body had been transported to the bed area, and Wendy went through a route frequented by nurses who were in charge of replacing the fresh bed sheets. At times, they would also send several recently deceased patients over to that area.

When Lucas arrived at the hospital, he passed by Melody's bed and bumped into a rather peculiar nurse. Having crossed paths with her for a fleeting moment, he glanced at the bed again. However, it was too quick an instance to trigger any alarm bells in him.

After entering his grandmother's ward, he found only Thalia there. Melody was not around. Thalia appeared uneasy, prompting Lucas to inquire, "Where's Melody?"

Thalia gestured for him to step outside as if reluctant to disturb Beatrice at rest.
