Why did that woman get all of Cyrusâ love and affection? Even though she was now dead, Melody couldnât win his heart.
âI donât mind if you break off our engagement today.
Iâll take Jennifer with me!â
Suddenly, the sound of high heels clicking on the floor echoed through the house.
A sharp female voice came from downstairs.
âI heard there were rumors about my supposed demise floating around.
I was wondering who was behind that.
And of course, it had to be you, Miss Hernandez.
â
Melodyâs ears perked up as she recognized the familiar female voice.
She turned around only to see Lucinda walking up the stairs in a fancy velvet dress, accompanied by a stern looking man.
The man wore a mask that concealed his facial features.
âYou! What the hell! Arenât you supposed to be dead?â Melody blurted out.
The smile that was on Melodyâs face vanished.
She was so shocked and tried to process the situation.
âHow is this possible! You jumped off the plane! How are you not dead?â
âUnfortunately for you, my dear, your little plan didnât quite work out.
â Lucinda responded with a smug grin, looking as gorgeous as ever.
Melodyâs rage flared up at the sight of Lucinda.
âYou bitch! Itâs because of you that Cyrus called off our engagement! Iâll make you pay for what youâve done to me!â
With fierce determination, Melody charged at Lucinda, ready to take her down.
But Lucinda was too quick and nimble.
She dodged Melodyâs attack which caused her to lose her balance and almost fall.
âI knew youâd be okay.
â Cyrus looked relieved to see that Lucinda was unharmed.
He rubbed her cheek and said, âGo and check on Jennifer inside.
Iâll handle this situation.

âALL right, Iâll leave her to you.
â
She nodded and went into the room with Hilliard, who was very capable for this new task.
After Lucinda entered the room, Cyrus turned to face Melody, and his expression hardened.
Melody fell to the floor, looking dejected and defeated.
âIâve already informed the Hernandez family that our engagement is over.
Consider yourself lucky that I wonât deal with you this time.
Now get out of my house before I change my mind.
â
He looked so irritated.
