CHAPTER 9: APOLLO TRICKED HER

Melody stopped arranging the fruits.

"I—is he that man, Daddy?" It was as if she asked a few questions and then resumed what she was doing so that her Daddy would not notice her reaction.

But if you think about it, that man seems kind. Here he was, and he even managed to visit and bring food to her father. At that point, he got my attention.

"He is, but don't think about it. I will just tell him that you are not willing to marry."

"No, Daddy, I agree." She faced him and sat on the chair by the side of his bed. "I—I agree, as you say you are not young anymore, so am I; I am not young either. I also want to give my children a proper and complete family."

"Are you sure, Melody? Aren't you just forced? ”

She forced a smile and squeezed her hand. He had no other choice. Her decision is complete because she doesn't want to be selfish. But she will make sure that she will recognize that man, and she will make a way for him to be the first to divorce her in case her children find out the truth
