His Heiress Wife (Retika) Chapter 110: In a Fancy Fuss

The incident had been taken care of by the event's organizers, but it was certain that Avery had
offended Rachel because of what she said about Yosef.And because of what happened, everyone
decided to head back.Melody slowed her steps down to catch on Yosef as they were walking.

"Why didn't you tell them what you saw?"

Although they were only centimeters apart, Melody didn't even turn to Yosef beside her as she
asked.She kept her gaze ahead as if she was only talking to herself.

Melody knew that Yosef was behind her in the water then, but she still continued to attack Avery.She
didn't even hesitate nor care even if someone else was there.

Yosef raised an eyebrow and chuckled.Then a ghost of a smile escaped his lips.

"I didn't say what I saw this morning either’ he said.

At breakfast that morning, Avery made Sarah trip on her feet.

Noah saw it, but it was not only him.

Yosef saw it, too.

But Yosef didn't feel the urge to tell anyone about it, which was the same case with him not telling
anyone about what he saw in the water.

Besides, it was simple logic.

Sarah got hurt because of Avery, so her sister went to avenge her by making Avery have a sweet taste
of the seawater.

Furthermore, Yosef was technically a bystander in the face of this skirmish.



Why would he care to intervene? It was never his character to stick his nose into other people's
business.

And the only reason he said anything earlier was that Avery was being too loud and scandalous.

A woman like her should be reprimanded so she'd keep her mouth shut.

When they got back to their room, Sarah continued to complain about what happened as she sat on
the bed.

"Why is that Avery so annoying? She must have done a lot of wicked things in the past that she met the
ghosts underwater earlier.How dare she use this opportunity to frame you? How can a person like her
exist?"

Melody leaned on the sofa lazily and closed her eyes, feeling too tired to hear Sarah's endless rants.

"I did it, okay" she said, still with her eyes closed, "That woman really..."

Sarah was about to spit out another series of rants when she heard Melody and stopped.

Her eyes widened, and she immediately turned around and looked at Melody incredulously.

Melody had always been indifferent and cold, despite her languid demeanor at the moment.

In Sarah's opinion, her sister didn't seem like the kind of person who would do such a thing.

But judging by Melody's character, Sarah could tell that she was not kidding.She looked at her sister
closely and felt that she might be telling the truth.She immediately checked her AirPods to make sure it
was turned off, and no other device was connected to it before closing the door carefully.

But, despite that, Sarah was still worried that someone might hear them inside the room, so she
covered the small space under the door using the rag on the floor.



While Sarah was getting slightly paranoid, Melody remained calm and languid on the sofa, not giving
any reactions at all to what her sister was doing.

Once Sarah was done making sure no one could eavesdrop, she rushed back to the sofa and
whispered, "Tell me, Mellie.Did you really do it? Why were you such a badass? Wow!"

Opening her eyes slowly and turning to face her sister, Melody raised an eyebrow at the look on
Sarah's face.

Unlike earlier, when she was scornful and irritated, Sarah looked giddy with excitement while asking
her sister about what happened.

Even though Melody didn't respond and only looked at her, she didn't seem worried that it could be a
problem if Melody did do it.

All Sarah had in mind at the moment was how cool her sister was.

Melody managed to teach Avery a lesson without being caught.

What a great move! Getting so carried away by excitement, Sarah began to jump around, like a child in
an amusement park.

Melody frowned at this and immediately grabbed Sarah's arm.

Sarah felt Melody's grip on her arms and stopped from jumping.She turned to Melody to ask what was
wrong and was met by the latter's glare.

"Watch your hands" said Melody sternly.

Sarah paused for a moment before reacting.She looked down at her swollen arm and understood what
her sister meant.



If she were not very careful, she would have hit her hand on the sofa.

The sofa was made in hard rattan wood, not the soft ones they had at home.

Even if her hand wasn't swollen as it was now, if it hit the solid edges of the sofa, she would be crippled
in no time.

The moment she was reminded of the wound on her hand, Sarah realized something.

Although Melody was indifferent and cold, she was never the type of person who would attack others
unprovoked.

Not because she was weak or cowardly, but because she was just too unbothered to react to petty
things most of the time.But earlier, Melody did that to Avery because the latter hurt Sarah first! Thinking
about this, Sarah got even giddier with excitement.

"Did you do that to Avery because of me, Mellie?" she exclaimed.

Melody sneered, and the sardonic look she had on her face sent chills down Sarah's spine, making her
lower her head slightly.

But since she was already used to her sister's scornful demeanor, she was no longer appalled by it.

The initial fright only lasted for a few seconds as excitement began to stir inside Sarah again.

"I'm so glad that I have such a good sister like you, Mellie! You know, I read my horoscope today.It says
that even though I will meet the person I like, I will have someone who will help me when I get in
trouble.And you helped me today, Mellie! You are my lucky charm!" she gushed.

Sarah kept on complimenting Melody that the latter didn't want to listen to her anymore.

But like a stupid curse, Sarah's words kept ringing on Melody's mind.



‘Mellie, you are my lucky charm! Was she really a "lucky" charm now? Wasn't she always regarded as
a jinx? A barrier of bad luck? How did she become a lucky charm in the blink of an eye? Perhaps the
only person in the entire Sullivan family who thought of her that way was Sarah.

Melody snorted inside.

After a while, Sarah suddenly remembered something and jolted.

"Oh my gosh!" she cried out.

Seemingly used to Sarah's exaggerated reactions, Melody rolled her eyes at her sister and said
languidly, "What is it this time?"

With widened eyes, Sarah turned to Melody in horror.

"Yosef was also in the water with you at that time, right? Mellie, he must have seen you attacking
Avery! But why didn't he say anything earlier? Is he...is he planning to use this against us? Oh my!" she
yelped.

Melody rolled her eyes at Sarah again.

The latter was just too giddy for her own good, so unlike the rest of the Sullivans in the family.

If Melody hadn't known that their grandfather wasn't the type of person who would shelter adoptive
children in the family, she would have dragged Sarah for a DNA test to see if she was really a Sullivan
by blood because of the way she was acting at the moment.

Otherwise, how could they be so different from each other if they came from the same parents? Melody
snorted inwardly.



Not getting any response from Melody, Sarah had gone more frantic as the worst-case scenarios
started to invade her mind.

"Oh gosh! What should we do, Mellie? I seriously suspect that..." she started to fret.

Melody was starting to get a headache from listening to her sister's chatter.

She turned to face Sarah and threw her a piercing, cold look.

The chill from Melody's glare sent shivers to Sarah as if a cold wind passed right through her, which
made her shut her mouth at once.

Her little sister could truly look a hundred times scarier than their grandfather when she was angry.

Sarah stopped fretting, but she couldn't keep herself from worrying.Her face was laced with nothing but
dread at the moment.

Melody had always hated it when people were fuzzy for nothing, especially when they'd turn into a
worry-wart over irrelevant things like her sister.

If it were in a different circumstance, she would have thrown someone like Sarah into a bottomless
abyss long ago to ensure that the person wouldn't appear in front of her in this life ever again.

But since this worry-wart was her sister, Melody was surprisingly tolerant of the behavior, which was
something that she couldn't understand about herself.

A few more minutes had passed, but Sarah was still so into her own fancy fuss.

Melody couldn't help but snort once more.

"It's such a pity that you're still not an actress at this point, you know" she commented sarcastically.



Sarah paused and looked at Melody blankly, not getting what the latter meant.

Melody didn't have the energy to explain further about what she had just said.

Instead, she straight up told Sarah off.

"You don't need to worry about Yosef, okay?"

It was not a big deal that Yosef saw what Melody did.

She was not bothered or scared if he would tell on her because she already knew how to deal with it.

There was no need for excessive worrying.Despite that, Sarah seemed to have something more to say,
but Melody was quick to keep her from doing so.

"Stop, Sarah! If you say another word..."

Sarah closed her mouth at once, feeling wronged.

But she knew that she should trust her sister's words for this.

If Melody said she shouldn't worry, Sarah should probably do as she was told.

However, she couldn't help but comment in her mind on how scary this little sister of hers can be!
