Chapter 2055

Melody paused and turned her head. Downstairs, Stella saw Lucas returning and quickly walked toward him. "You're finally back. I've been waiting for you here for a long time!" Lucas' gaze hardened when he spotted Stella, clearly not expecting her presence. "What are you doing here?" Lucas had no idea that Stella was invited to have dinner at their house. "Grandma Beatrice invited me for dinner. I thought she'd tell you!" Stella's gaze caught Melody still standing at the staircase, and she quickly reached out to help Lucas take off his coat. "Come on! Take off your coat, it's warm inside. I'll hang it up for you." She looked like a proper lady of the Riveras, waiting for her husband to come home, helping him with his coat. "No need." Lucas sidestepped, skillfully avoiding her hand. Melody, standing on the stairs, happened to witness this scene. She could not quite describe the feeling in her heart, so she quietly went back to her room. They could get cozy however they wished.
