“Hurry up and handle this, it's getting noisy.”
The bodyguards no longer hesitated and turned toward Melanie. It was obvious
they intended to take action directly this time.
As a woman, Melanie did not stand a chance against them in the first place.
Considering that she had Meredith with her, it was even more difficult for her to
avoid them while protecting her.
Within two minutes, the bodyguards cornered her near a cabinet. They did not
lay their hands on her yet but kept pressuring her relentlessly. They were ready
to grab the child at any opportunity. It was frankly no different from an abduction.
Meredith was crying loudly. Melanie tried to warn Cedric, “I've already had my
friend call the police. Aren't you afraid?”
The moment she said that, the door of the room swung open, followed by hurried
yet steady footsteps.
As soon as Eugene entered, he saw Melanie carrying Meredith, who was crying
hysterically. They were in a corner, pale—faced. Unrestrained hostility appeared in
his eyes as he looked straight at Cedric. His voice was icy. “What are you
planning to do to them?”
Cedric’s expression darkened. “Who allowed you to come here?!”
William cautiously approached the man and said, “I'm sorry. I couldn't stop
Eugene.”
“What do you intend to do by bringing them here?” Eugene did not even bother
with formalities. His gaze swept over the bodyguards surrounding Melanie, his
expression chilling and intimidating.
Cedric snorted coldly. “As if I need your consent to meet someone."

Eugene stared at him for a moment and then suddenly chuckled. Turning around,
he strode directly to the bodyguards. He roared, “Get out of the way!”
He reached out and lifted Melanie. He could feel her trembling with fear.
The hostility on Eugene's face had not yet dissipated as he supported Melanie to
her feet. Clasping her hand, he lowered his voice and reassured her, “It's okay.
Don't be afraid.”

Melanie was still scared, but more than that, she was worried about Meredith
being harmed. The sound of Meredith sobbing and gasping for breath made her
heart ache.
Seeing Eugene disregard him like this, Cedric's expression darkened as he
roared,” Eugene! Have you forgotten that I'm your father?”
“Father?” Eugene sneered. “Do you actually remember that you're a father?”
Eugene recalled the scene when he had just arrived-Melanie and Meredith being
surrounded. Their weak and helpless appearance stabbed at his heart like a
knife. Fortunately, he arrived in time. He dared not think about what would have
happened if he had been just a step late.
With Eugene's sudden arrival, Cedric dared not do anything further.

Meredith had cried until she was exhausted and was gasping for breath with
each sob. She looked pitiful.
After a long silence, Eugene finally asked Melanie softly, “Are you okay?”
