Chapter 39 Targeting Brandon +5 Free Cong

Brandon furrowed his brow. Why was this new Mrs. Moore taking every opportunity to pick on him like a hawk? Did he give off an air of brawn but zero brains in her eyes?

Just as Melody was about to unleash another jab, Edward rolled out of the study, interrupting her. "Alright, that's enough. Get me to the medicinal bath," he commanded.

Melody nodded curtly but not before a quick glance swept over the desk. The scattered documents, filled with details about her life, caught her eye for a fleeting moment. A subtle smirk tugged at the corner of her lips.

There was a reason Melody kept poking at Brandon. Earlier, she'd sensed another presence in the study. Deep down, she knew Edward never fully trusted her, and Brandon's presence only. fueled her suspicions.

But hey, maybe Edward taking an interest in her past wasn't all bad? Maybe, just maybe, this was a sign of... progress? A twisted kind of progress, sure, but progress nonetheless.

Meanwhile, in the master room's bathroom, Melody took the lead, adjusting the temperature of the strange, brown, medicinal concoction that smelled like a witch's cauldron and steamed like a sauna.

Then she stood by the door and asked in a voice laced with a hint of something Edward couldn't quite place, "Mr. Moore, time to strip down and get soaked. Would you like me to help you get undressed?" Her gaze lingered on the man who had already approached the bath's edge.

Edward practically pushed her out, dumbfounded by her audacity as her laser gaze lingered on the toned muscles he was about to reveal. She'd already seen and touched way too much of him. He wouldn't have a shred of privacy if this kept up.

"Oh, right! You left your hot milk in the study. Let me go grab it for you," she said quickly. exiting the bathroom.

By the time Melody had returned, Edward was already submerged in the brown liquid. It gave his skin a strange, almost glowing sheen.

Steam billowed upward, tinted with a delicate pink hue that kissed Edward's cheeks.
