Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: The Closer, the Easier to Dig

He wouldn't let Melody Thorne go. She cooks delicious food, she's pretty, cute, tells him stories, and cuddles him to sleep. How wonderful is that?

Jared Quinn "..."

Timothy Lockwood "..."

Stealing someone away!!

Who's stealing from whom exactly?

"Aren't you getting a bit too close with your stealing?" Timothy tried hard not to laugh, how's Jared supposed to handle this?

"Close makes it easier to steal, duh." Little Timmy looked at him disdainfully, are you dumb? Why steal something far away when you have something close by?

Timothy Lockwood "!!"

Today he's been given that disdainful look more than once or twice!! Is today going crazy?

"Jared, I think that woman is deliberately playing hard-to-get, getting you hooked so you have to go along with her!" Timothy said excitedly, "Even though her breakfast is delicious, you must resist, don't fall for her trap."

"She's such a silly woman, what if you can't hold back, and fall for her, and she leaves behind a little dummy, that would be tragic."

"Plus, I heard that little dummy is also..."

Before Timothy could finish speaking, a crackling noise came from behind, along with a whiff of gunpowder.

"Bang—" His seat behind him was kicked open.

Timothy turned around in shock, meeting a pair of fiery black eyes.

Before he had time to react, Melody Thorne placed the plate loudly on the table and said angrily, "Timothy Lockwood, dare call me a little dummy again and see what happens?"

Timothy was stunned by the shout, for a long time he didn't know how to react...

Holy crap, did he just get scolded by a little dummy?

Jared Quinn's deep black eyes also fell on Melody Thorne, a flicker of emotion, he squinted slightly, has this woman really changed?

Or is she plotting something new?

"Melody~" came the voice of a little dumpling next to her.

The sparks flying off Melody Thorne's head were instantly doused as she turned back, smiling gently and amiably, leaned closer and whispered, "Did I scare you, my little darling?"

"Nope," Little Timmy shook his head calmly, pointing to the plate in her hand, "Be careful with my heart-shaped fried egg."

"Mhm mhm," Melody Thorne gently placed the plate in front of the little dumpling, "Take your time eating."

"Jared, Jared," Timothy nudged the man next to him secretly with his elbow, his eyes slid over the woman across from them, lowered his voice, "Do you want to get a good psychiatrist over?"

Jared Quinn "..."

He rather wanted to see how long this woman could keep this act up!

"Melody," a woman walked in from the hall outside, wearing a pink dress, dressed like a Barbie doll, her chest high and plump, looking quite enticing to men.

She first shyly glanced at Jared Quinn's direction, then walked over to Melody Thorne.

Melody Thorne looked at the woman blocking her view, frowned and asked, "Happy Doll?"

"Pfft—" A few servants couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Ivy's face turned all sorts of colors in an instant,

"It's me, Ivy."

Melody Thorne looked up at her for a few seconds, then nodded earnestly, "Oh, I forgot my glasses today, sorry about that."

Ivy "!!"

They grew up together since they were little, wouldn't she know if she's nearsighted or not?

"Melody, I forgot to give you your stuff yesterday." Ivy glanced at Jared Quinn as she spoke, but quickly lowered her head for fear of being noticed, looking all tough but bluffing,
