As the two were in the middle of their little act, there was knock at the door. Bernard stood there, looking pitiful, holding a tray with a medicinal dish in his hands.

The dish was something Melody had personally prepared to help Edward's recovery. Not only were the ingredients extremely hard to find, but each component had to be the best of the best, making it even more difficult to perfect. In the past, Melody had always handled these tasks herself, meticulously preparing medicinal food for Cameron's recovery.

She didn't mind working tirelessly, spending hours upon hours brewing medicinal herbs. To make the perfect tonic, she would even head into the mountains to dig up the freshest maca root herself.

Even if she ended up bruised and battered, she'd be careful not to damage the maca root, fearing it would affect the dish's potency. As soon as she returned home, she'd head straight to the kitchen, cooking it over a low flame for hours. But this time, when she wanted to do the same for Edward, he stopped her.

Edward's large hand gently held her head in place, his voice softer than she'd ever heard it before.

"Silly girl, your heart is enough.

"A man who truly cares for you would never let you tire yourself out like this."

It was then that Melody finally understood: someone who truly loves you doesn't care about how much you sacrifice.

They only worry about how much it will exhaust you.

So, naturally, the task of preparing the medicinal dish had fallen to the "unfortunate" assistant, Bernard.

Now, holding the tray, Bernard was so moved by his own dedication that he was almost on the verge of tears.

"Mr. Moore, the medicinal dish is ready. Please eat it while it's hot," he said, after receiving permission to enter the room.

Bernard stepped into the master bedroom, only to see Melody lounging lazily in Edward's arms, her small hand playfully tugging at his loosely tied necktie.

Meanwhile, Edward's laptop was still open, connected to the ongoing Moore Group board meeting!

What the ?! Is this a live broadcast? How is this so intense?

But he knew better than to look around any longer.

He quickly placed the dish on the desk and made a hasty exit.

Melody glanced over at the medicinal dish.

Today's dish was still focused on treating certain performance issues." It seemed Edward hadn't fully recovered yet.

No wonder that night hadn't led to anything.

Turns out, the "gun" hadn't even been loaded in the first place.

Melody, fully understanding the situation, stood up and casually brought the bowl of medicinal dish over. She absentmindedly stirred the liquid with a spoon as she watched. Edward continue offering feedback on Moore Group's latest proposals. The board members on the other end of the video conference were sweating bullets, sitting up straight, anxiously waiting for Edward's next move.

After Edward's accident, Moore Group had fallen into the hands of the family's uncles from a collateral branch.

Truman, Edward's father, had stepped down far too early and no longer involved himself in business matters.

Edward and Felicity's mother had passed away long ago, and the most likely heir, Alfred- Edward's half-brother from his stepmother-had been shipped off overseas three years ago.

For a time, Moore Group had been gradually taken over by the uncles.

Edward, having been out of commission for three years, had let it slide.

But now that he was back on his feet, he had finally started taking control of the company again.

Though it was just a video meeting, the shareholders were all on edge.

With just a few words, several relatives the uncles had placed within the company had been removed-demoted, dismissed, or outright fired.

Edward's swift, decisive actions commanded both fear and respect.

Noticing how busy he was, Melody quietly waited by his side for a while.

Thanks to her finance studies at Greenfield University, she understood quite a bit of what was going on.

Moore Group was undergoing a major reshuffle

She didn't want to disturb him, so she was about to head off to take a shower.

But just before leaving, she couldn't resist teasing him. In a playful whisper, she said, "Time to drink your medicine, my dear."

She had barely finished when she tried to slip away, but Edward's large hand quickly wrapped around her waist, pulling her back into his arms..

The Moore Group board members were stunned. Are you kidding me?!

We're dealing with major corporate shakeups here, and he still has time to flirt?

But of course, none of them dared say a word.

Though they were seething with frustration on the inside, outwardly they maintained the serious, composed expressions of dutiful employees.

Edward lowered his gaze, his long lashes fluttering slightly as he reached out and gently pinched Melody's nose. "Mel... I'm a bit busy right now, in the middle of a meeting. My hands are tied. "If the medicine sits out any longer, won't the medicinal effects weaken?
