Melanie could hear footsteps as the woman spoke, indicating that she had likely left the room. She lowered her gaze and looked at the empty hotel room for a moment before calmly asking, “Do you have time? I’m in Hearth City and would like to meet you.”

“What?” Dylan was clearly surprised. “Why are you here in the city?”

Melanie tried to ignore the surprise and resistance in her tone. She replied indifferently, “I want to talk to you about Grandpa.”

With that, she hung up the phone. Melanie heard the beeping, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. She had heard Peachie crying and sensed the tension as well as worry in Dylan’s voice.
