Chapter 1119 When Melody looked at his cold and heartless side profile, she held his hand and shook her head. âAl, your thoughts are too extreme. Itâs only because of the existence of love that there are grudges and harm. I think during the half a month that George went missing, Raina must have also gone through a period of torment. There must be a special reason that made her break up with Georgie after half a month. George isnât the only person who got hurt in this relationship.â
Alden held himself back for a while, but he still did not say anything in the end. He just looked down indifferently.
âI think Mel is right.â Ninian nodded as well. âI really want to go and ask Raina what truly made her break up with George. Her performance in the cafe just now also proves that she actually canât let him go.â
âGrapie!â Alden suddenly looked at her sternly. âYou canât go and ask her. I wonât allow you to interfere with this.â
âWhat?â Ninian was slightly surprised. She raised her head and looked at him, while her big eyes were filled with some confusion. Melody and Harold were also surprised by Aldenâs agitation.
âHey, talk nicely. Donât yell at her!â Harold said unhappily.
Aldenâs expression became a little twisted. He held himself back, softened his tone, and gently said, âGrapie, listen to me, youâre still very young. Donât get involved in this.â
Ninian blinked and obediently said, âOkay.â
âOkay, letâs not talk about this today. Itâs really late now. Letâs get some rest,â Melody said. She then pushed Harold and Ninian into their rooms.
When she reached Aldenâs room door, she stopped walking. She looked at Alden with her bright eyes.
âAl, I guess you havenât finished speaking.â Alden raised his eyebrows slightly. âGeorge went missing for half a month. Did it have something to do with Grapie?â Without waiting for his answer, Melody analyzed the situation. âI briefly calculated the time. That was when Grapie was nearly kidnapped. Georgie was busy dealing with the trash, and he was clearing all the possible threats that were hidden in Winters Corporation under Daddyâs instructions. âSo, they lost contact at the most critical time, which caused an irreparable misunderstanding between them, right?â
Alden looked at his sister for a while before he helplessly sighed. âI really canât hide anything from you.â âI guessed it correctly.â Melody exhaled and frowned slightly. âSo, I guess that Georgie didnât explain the real reason why he went missing to Raina either, right? He would never bring up Grapieâs injury and humiliation again.
âThis is also why you covered up the reason he went missing and forbade Grapie from getting involved.â Melodyâs tone was very firm, so Alden did not refute her. Instead, he just admitted to it silently.
He seemed to be slightly annoyed. He leaned against the wall of the hotel and bent down a little. He looked slightly haggard. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, flicked his lighter, and wanted to light the cigarette up.
However, the cigarette in his fingers was taken away. Melody stared at him seriously, while her indifferent gaze was filled with a warning. âAl, if you keep smoking, Iâll call Mommy.â Alden was speechless.
