A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo)

Chapter 429 Business is Business

Tessa held Melody by her shoulder, looking heartbroken. She couldn't help shedding tears as well, soothing, "You're a wonderful person. In fact, you are perfect in my book. Theo is the one with poor taste in ladies. How about you stop loving him and find someone else for yourself instead?"

Truth be told, she believed that Douglas was a good man. Although his career couldn't hold a candle to Theo's, he was loving. Melody's happiness was all but guaranteed if she became his wife.

It was a shame that Melody didn't see things this way.

"I-I don't want to have feelings for him if I could, but I-I just can't help it." Then, she clutched her chest and cried her heart out.

Tessa had expected as much. She could persuade Melody for as long as she wanted but still be unable to change Melody's mind. No matter what happened, Melody's feelings for Theo would never fizzle out.

Douglas chuckled bitterly, feeling deeply disappointed and dejected. Perhaps it was time for him to give up on Melody as well.
