“If you don’t like talking about your marriage, then | won’t mention it anymore. But you can’t say such suggestive things ever again!
“Good girls have a reputation to uphold. Your good name will be ruined if what you said gets out. Besides, if you don’t marry him, who else can you marry? You're already his!”
Melanie closed her eyes and tried to hold it in, but she could no longer suppress the emotions in her heart. She opened her eyes and looked at Howard. “The so-called good girl you’re talking about is a submissive mother who does nothing but stay home and take care of her husband and kids. It would be even better if you could marry her off for expensive wedding gifts, right?
“Howard Smith, I’m calling you Dad for the last time.”
“Do you remember what you taught me when | was a child? You told me stories about Amelia Earhart and Marie Curie. You said that girls should have their own goals and dreams, and that’s why I’ve been working hard all this while. | never backed down from any difficulties because I’ve always
remembered your words-
“But listen to what you're saying now. Look at what you’re doing. When you did those filthy things with that nineteen—year-old girl, Bianca, did you really not feel any guilt or uneasiness?!”
Melanie was practically growling by the end. The words had been bottled up in her heart since she had seen Howard and Bianca that day.
She always remembered sitting next to Howard and listening to his stories when she was a child. He said that girls should be self-reliant, and that Melanie would be a tenacious woman once she grew up.
Despite that...
Melanie could not reconcile Howard, the man who had told her those things, with the filthy old pervert she saw doing those dirty things to another girl young enough to be his daughter.
That was why when Melanie saw the video Matthew had given her, her first reaction was to throw up.
Howard had not only shattered his image in Melanie’s heart, but he had also shaken the very
foundation of her morals.
She suddenly realized that the person she had admired since she was a girl was actually the kind of person she hated the most.
The effect of that realization was immense.
Melanie had even been avoiding thinking about Howard for days until just now, when she heard his shameless words with her own ears.
He was no longer the kind and respectable father in Melanie’s memory. He seemed to have metamorphosed into the kind of dirtbag Melanie had seen countless times in her life.

2/2
He was selfish, narrow-minded and ignorant.
Melanie’s face was very pale, and her chest felt so tight it was hard to breathe. She grabbed her bag
and turned to leave.
She felt that if she stayed here for another second, she would suffocate to death.
She really could not bear to see Howard now, not even for a second.
Otherwise, she would vomit. Definitely, without a doubt.
However, before she could take a step, she was suddenly struck by a wave of dizziness, followed by a dull pain in her abdomen.
Melanie lost her balance and was about to fall. Fortunately, someone held her firmly by the waist
from behind.
She shifted her gaze and met Eugene’s deep eyes under his furrowed brows.
