His Heiress Wife (Retika) Chapter 192: What A Coincidence

After Sarah found her bag, she walked with Melody to her car.

They were about to get into the car when Melody realized that something was off and reached out to
stop Sarah.

Sarah was stunned and looked at Melody in confusion.

"Mellie, what are you doing? Why aren't you getting in the car?"

Melody lowered her gaze and motioned for Sarah to look at the bottom part of the car.

Sarah followed Melody's line of sight and discovered that the tires of her car were flat.She circled the
car to check each tire’s condition.

Unfortunately, she found that all four tires were flat.She looked at Melody in panic, "Mellie, what should
we do now? I can't drive my car.The tires are all flat.I have a bad feeling that someone must have
intentionally sabotaged it!"

Melody knew that someone sabotaged it even without Sarah's assurance.

It did not take a genius to figure out that someone tampered with their car just by looking at the tires.

There was no need to take a guess.

Melody had already figured out who was to blame.

Who else could it be other than Charles? He usually did not know the gravity of his arrogant actions
and would constantly play such boring and childish tricks.It had to be him.

Sarah seemed a little more anxious compared to Melody.



"Oh Mellie, this is a disaster.What should we do?"

Sarah continued, "We're still in the villa's parking area.Most people drive their private cars to get in and
out of here.We need to go all the way to the front gate to get a cab."

"The front gate is at least a mile or two away from here."

Sarah complained for a moment before she stomped her feet in frustration, "Forget about it.I'll go back
inside and ask father to find us a driver!"

Sarah was about to leave when Melody stopped her.

Charles was the one who caused the problem, so how could their family help them at this time? It
would only put the Sullivan family to shame if they made a scene.

Quince would refuse to help them if he knew about Charles' involvement.

Melody did not even think twice about it.

"No, wait.Calm down, Sarah.I'll think of another way, don't worry."

Even a lousy situation such as this one could not stop Melody! Melody's simple words always worked
like magic and could calm anyone's racing heart.

Melody had this effect on Sarah.

Sarah immediately calmed down after hearing Melody's words, and she meekly followed closely behind
Melody.

As they exited the parking lot, Sarah and Melody noticed a man in a black coat not too far away from
them.



The man’s silhouette leaned against a black Bentley in the cold weather.His shiny hair partly covered
his dark eyes.His eyes sparkled under the moonlight as he looked straight ahead.

The cool breeze blew through the corner of his shirt, slightly lifting it, and it made everyone feel a chill
radiating from him.

The man walked towards Melody when he saw her approaching figure.

"Seth? Why are you here?" Melody asked, her eyes wide in surprise.

When Seth saw Melody's face, his cold glare melted into a warm, gentle stare.

"I was stopping by to wish Gwendolyn a happy birthday, and I assumed you would be here as well, but
I didn't expect to run into you.Isn't this a coincidence? If you don't have a ride, you can come with
me.We'll send you home."

Austin stood behind helplessly.

He listened to Seth's words and shook his head in disapproval.

‘How was this a coincidence? You have been waiting here for two hours straight by now!’ Austin’s legs
were trembling from the cold.

In the freezing air, Melody's eyes traveled across Seth's face.

Her lips curved into a beautiful smile, and her eyes twinkled as brightly as the stars in the night sky.

"What a coincidence!" Melody agreed.

Seth laughed heartily and did not say anything else.



Sarah, who had been standing at the side, quickly moved forward and exclaimed, "Thank goodness,
Seth, you came just in time! It's like our minds are linked.Our car broke down, and we were afraid we
could not go home, but then you came! Thanks for saving us.You are far too kind!"

Sarah's words contained a hidden meaning, which Seth picked up on.

Seth raised his eyebrows at Melody with a questioning look in his eyes and waited for her to say
something.

Melody quietly shook her head.She liked how Seth always knew when to ask for her opinion.

Seth had gotten used to giving out orders as the CEO of Harrison Corporation, so it was refreshing to
see this side of him.

It was a different side of Seth that Melody liked to see.

Seth would seek Melody’s opinion on everything as long as it had something to do with her, no matter
how little.

He refused to decide on his own without asking her first when it came to those matters.

Seth didn't insist when he saw that Melody didn't want him to move.

"Let's hurry inside the car.It's windy out here!"

Sarah followed behind Melody, but then Seth stepped in between them.

When Melody bent down to enter the car, Seth took the initiative to block the door frame to prevent her
head from hitting it.It was a thoughtful action that would make others feel jealous.

Melody had the impression that Seth was a young, aloof man known as the heir of the Harrison family.



People always regarded him as superior, and no other woman could get close to him.

How did Melody manage to snag a man that was as aloof and as cold as Seth? Sarah was delighted
anyway.

Sarah assumed that Seth only came because their families had an agreement, but now it seemed that
he was here specifically for Melody.

Austin carefully pulled up the car to Sarah’s house.

Sarah did not know if it was intentional or not, but they were moving at a snail's pace.

The ride to her house should have taken half an hour, but it took them an hour and a half with Austin's
slow speed.

Seth's Bentley was a high-performance luxury car, but it traveled even slower than an old damaged car.

Sarah took the hint as the car came to a stop.She pushed the car door open and hurried to get out
without looking back.

Sarah called over her shoulder, "Mellie, I need to go to the bathroom real quick.Just take your time.You
can come in later!"

Melody shook her head helplessly after seeing Sarah sprint back to the house as if a dog was chasing
her.

Melody's captivating smile caught Seth's attention.

His clear dark brown eyes studied her face, and the corners of his lips slowly lifted into a smile as well.

They smiled at the same time, mirroring each other.



Seth spoke in a soft and kind tone, "Well...your sister seems pretty interesting."

"She is," Melody nodded.

Seth stretched out his hand and caressed Melody's head softly.It was clear that her hair had never
been bleached.

Melody took care of her hair pretty well, and it was silky smooth to the touch.

Melody was quite pleased with Seth's gentle touch.

Seth continued to stroke her hair unintentionally a couple more times and got himself hooked.

‘This guy...Does he really think of me as a cat or a dog? Is it really that enjoyable to pet me?’ Melody
was ready to scold him, but Seth seemed to have guessed what she was thinking and retracted his
hand just in time.

He turned around and reached into his side pocket to take out a small box.

The small box's packaging was exquisite, and it looked like it cost a lot of money.

"I had someone reduce the sweetness of the pills in half, but it still has the same effect.Here, take one!
You look like you need it."

Seth pushed the small box into her hand.Melody frowned slightly at the sight of the box after finding out
what was inside.

"Be a little optimistic, okay? I promise that these aren't any sweeter than the last one.It helps you raise
your sugar levels faster,"

Seth reassured her.



Seth requested for the biological medical team to manufacture rapid sugar-raising pills.

Seth wanted to use these pills to treat Melody's hypoglycemia.

Melody happily accepted the small box after Seth explained what it contained.

It wasn't that Melody could not treat her own hypoglycemia.It was just a lot of work.

Melody had already gotten used to her tired state whenever her hypoglycemia kicked in.

She usually never had a choice but to get a good night's sleep and hope that it would be fixed by the
next morning, whenever it kicked in.

But Melody knew that Seth could not bear to see her tired, so she decided to listen to him this time.She
did not mind occasionally taking the pills that tasted like sweet candy.

"Thank you for this!" Melody waved the small box of pills in her hand and pushed the door open.

Seth did not ask for her to stay.

Melody still had to go to school the next day, and it was not good for her to sleep too late.

Austin was about to start the car after ensuring that Melody was already back inside the house.

When suddenly, there was a silhouette of a man standing in the dark.

Austin’s eyes narrowed when he saw this and immediately alerted Seth in a booming voice, "Sir,
someone is blocking our path!"
