Chapter 1179
Ninian knew that once the rest of her family finds out, they would never let her and Everett remain together.
'Even her gentle and open-minded sister has taken a hard line about this. I'm sure George, Hal, and Al will be even sterner than this. 'Is Everett actually worrying about this...?
She could not help but have a sour feeling in her heart when she recalled his reaction in the car.
Even so, her heart still ached for him.
'I've fallen in love with him. I cannot, and I don't want to fall out of love with him.'
"Mel, no matter what the situation is, I will go through it with him," Ninian said firmly.
"A-Are you crazy?" Melody was furious.
"Mel, you know me," Ninian said gently. "Ever since I was young, once I've made my decision, I won't change my mind again."
"Ninian Winters!" Melody was so angry that she called out her full name. "Why are you not listening to me?"
"Mel..." Ninian's heart ached and felt upset when she heard how angry Melody was. She said gently, "Mel, I'm
all grown up now. I can make my own decisions. Please back me up..."
She wanted to be with Everett, but it was not going to happen unless Melody helped her.
She was truly desperate for her help.
"Mel, help me hide this from our family first, okay? I'll find an excellent psychologist for Everett." She said, "I will talk to the psychologist and help him get better together. I don't want our family and Everett to know about this."
'Since Everett thinks that I know nothing about this, I'll continue to pretend to not know anything. This can reduce his stress and worry.
'I believe we will overcome this together."
"I can help you find a psychologist, but as for our brothers ..." Melody paused before saying coldly, "I won't help you with that. You... just look out for yourself, okay?"
She hung up the call after she finished speaking.
Ninian teared up when she heard the female operator speaking at the end of the line.
They had been close for many years, and this was her first time seeing Melody so angry at her. She had never hung up her call, either.
She was upset, but she did not regret her decision.
She bit her lower lip and had a resolute look in her eyes.
Meanwhile, on the other end of the line, tears also welled up in Melody's eyes. Her expression might be cold, but she was also sad, feeling sorry for Ninian.
If only she had not been so heated during that moment, she would not be able to bring herself to say such harsh words to the sister that she had loved and treasured ever since she was young.
'Before this, I supported Ninian in the pursuit of her love for Everett, mainly because I only knew so much about him. I relented and supported their relationship because she mentioned that he was a sincere and fine young man.
'But after investigating him, I've since learned that he's a very dangerous man. This time, I won't support their relationship no matter what.
'I hope Ninian will be able to live a happy, peaceful life. I don't want her to go through any hardships.
Melody sighed. When she turned, she saw a figure behind her. Blood drained from her face.
Harold was watching her. He, who had always been cheeky, looked as cold as ice.
