The next day, the stylist did Melody Thorne's hair and chose a gown for her. Having had a child, Melody Thorne now exuded a pure yet enchanting allure, more captivating than before.
Nina King scrutinized her, thinking a mere month's disappearance wouldn't change anything, yet something was off with her eyes—they seemed too pure.

At the award ceremony, per Nina King's request, Jared Quinn stayed outside waiting for her and did not go in.
Melody Thorne wore a long gown, and her appearance instantly caused a commotion, with all the reporters pointing their cameras at her, swarming around her.
"Miss Thorne, please clarify why you disappeared for a month. Were you secretly having a child for the Quinn Family?"
"Miss Thorne, are you aware that your fans are very disappointed now? Many got hurt in their efforts to see you over the past month."
