Doubts in her eyes, Lauren said, âNash is not that kind of person. There must be something amiss. Letâs wait for him to come back, then we can ask him properly!â
The moment she said that, Nash returned with Melody and Finn. Finn was wrapped like a mummy as he hopped along with Melodyâs help.
âDad, Mom, what are you guys doing here?â Nash smiled as he entered the house.
âYouâre our son-in-law. Is it so weird that we would come pay you a visit?â Lauren said as she eyed Melody. She was indeed quite good-looking and seemed to have a pretty decent temperament.
She also had quite a nice figure, which undoubtedly fit most menâs aesthetics. However, she still could not believe that Nash would engage in an affair.
Nash had guessed that his mother-in-law was here to interrogate him and shook the medicine in his hand. Smiling, he said, âIâll go prepare some medicine for Finn first. Iâll explain everything later.â
Finnâs injury was serious, and he needed holistic medical treatment. Otherwise, he would not heal properly even after three to five months.
Melody, on the other hand, was starting to feel a bit nervous. These were Nashâs in-laws. They could not possibly think of her as a homewrecker, could they?
Lauren noticed Finnâs injury. Despite not knowing the man, she still asked quietly, âDid this happen last night?â
With a cast around his neck, Finn turned his head slowly and replied, âYesâ¦â
Lauren noticed the bruising on Melodyâs face as well and was even more surprised. Did Hera not say that this woman had spent the night with Nash last night?
Why were they both injured?
When Harrison noticed how Lauren had not gotten straight to the point, he could not help but ask, (C Miss, where were you both last night?â
Did he suspect that she and Nash had spent the night together? With that thought in mind, Melody explained, âWe were both at the hospital last night.â
Harrison asked, âWhich hospital?â
Melody smiled as she answered, âIf you have something to ask, you can just ask directly. Thereâs no need to beat about the bush.â
Harrison cleared his throat a couple of times but said nothing else. His wifeâs touch was required for this vixen. If he were to do it, he would soon start taking action.
Lauren pondered for a moment before asking, âWhatâs your relationship with Nash?â
To that, Melody replied, âI know what you want to ask. You should ask the brat about the misunderstanding between Nash and Hera.â
Harrisonâs expression turned stern. âYouâre a 30-year-old adult, yet you dare actually lay your hands. on a child. Is this what your parents taught you?â
Finn had wanted to speak up for Melody. Just as he turned his head around, however, a crisp slap
echoed in the air.
Melody was smiling faintly. âYou may be Nashâs in-laws, but I do hope youâll watch your words. I disciplined the brat because of her disrespectful remarks!â
Her parents had passed away when she was young while her grandparents left her not long ago. She was currently single and really disliked it when people brought up her family.
When Harrison saw how arrogantly the vixen was acting, his anger surged as he rose to his feet. âAre you trying to pick a fight with me?â he yelled.
Melody merely answered coldly, âYou think I wouldnât dare?â
Nash heard the commotion outside and hurriedly ran out. âDad, whatâs going on?â
Still agitated, Harrison roared. âDonât call me that. You need to choose between Hera and this woman today!â
âHarrison, calm down!â Lauren yelled as she pulled the man back.
Nash sighed helplessly. âThis is a long story. Let me prepare the medicine first. Then Iâll explain
everything to you.â
The medicine for Finn contained several fresh herbs that needed to be brewed quickly or they would
lose their effectiveness. Nash had just entered the kitchen when the commotion started outside.
âMr. Nash, allow me to explain it for you!â Finn offered.
Nash just walked into the kitchen dejectedly.
âLet me start from when I went to the cemetery where the Young family is buried with Nash to pay respects to our ancestors. That early morning, Nash took me to the cemetery in Goldenfallsâ¦â
