Melanie suddenly realized something and asked, “Where are Reny and the others?” “They went to a bar,” Xander replied. “There's a pretty popular singer performing there today.” Melanie had no interest in crowded places like a bar and followed Xander to the ancient city.
“Reny said you were in a bad mood. Do you mind tellingabout it?” When Melanie cout just now, Xander had been on a call. Hence, he did not know that Eugene and Evelyn were also at the restaurant.
Melanie paused for a moment but remained silent. Admittedly, whatever going on between Howard and Peyton had little to do with her. However, she could not help but recall what Howard had said about having reasons for not returning to Jepton.
However, it seemed that his restrictions only applied to her, huh? He could not go back to Jepton but could cto PrCity. Melanie's expectations of Howard had long since vanished, but the feeling of being ignored-even though she realized it belatedly-still made her uncomforbadies The next morning, Melanie got up and went downstairs. The group had agreed the previous night to visit a nearby attraction today. The moment she stepped into the elevator, she received a call from Howard.
Melanie declined it without hesitation, but he called again soon after. This was followed by the third and fourth calls. He was determined to keep calling until she picked up.

The church surroundings were filled with candles, and the smell was strong. Melanie could smell it even while sitting outside. While she was at the gazebo, her phone rang again. This time, it was from 712 an unknown mumber.
Melanie glanced at the phone and loow it was Howard. He was always persistent when there was something to gain. She reluctantly answered the call. Immediately, Howard's irritated voice sounded. “Melanie, you blockedagain? Do you even remember that I'm your father?” “If you have nothing important to say, I'm hanging up,” Melanie simply said.
Howard paused for a moment before aslong with obvious restraint, “Where are you now? | have something very serious to tell you,” “If it’s important, just say it now, I'm busy,” Melanie replied firmly, her eyes deep as she gazed at the church’s walls in the distance.
Howard seemed dissatisfied with Melanie's attitude but suppressed his annoyance and continued, Did you and Evelyn butt heads before?” Melanie was taken aback for a moment but then realized what was going on. Howard was now closely associated with Peyton. It made sense for him to know about Evelyn as well.
The self-deprecating expression on her face grew. She could already guess what Howard was going to say next.
