Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 548: I Just Want to Protect You...

He held her, like a child, gently comforting, "Melody, no one will blame you. If not for special reasons, you definitely wouldn’t have done this."

He patted Melody Parker’s back again and again, his voice infinitely gentle, "Melody, if you want to cry, just cry. I’m here."

Melody Parker thought she wouldn’t cry.

Because during that time in Whitehill, because of longing and remorse, she had already shed too many, too many tears.

But under Neal Galan’s soothing comfort, under his solid and warm chest like a brother, she couldn’t help but cry.

Glittering tears rolled down the corner of Melody Parker’s eyes. She stepped back from Neal’s embrace, looking at her own hands through tear-filled eyes, painfully and remorsefully murmured, "Neal, do you know? With these hands, I shot Barrett Carter, and with these hands, stabbed Adrian Davies twice—once in the abdomen, once in the heart. I even pushed him off a cliff with my own hands... Neal, my hands are stained with blood, and when I finally came to, recalling all this..."

From Melody Parker’s painful narrative, Neal Galan caught the crucial point: When she came to, recalling all this, that means Melody was not conscious back then?

The following words from Melody Parker confirmed his thought.

Melody cried, continuing in self-reproach, "Even though I was poisoned and controlled by Virgil Davies, I shouldn’t have acted this way!"

Poisoned? 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Melody actually got poisoned!

Neal Galan looked at Melody Parker, anxiously inquiring, "Melody, you were poisoned? How are you now? Is the poison cured? Virgil Davies... he dared to control you, he’s really courting death!"

After speaking, without waiting for Melody to open her mouth, he hurriedly continued, "During this time, I’ve only known that you’ve healed your eyes, reunited with your biological father, and then went back to River City to happily live with Adrian. I didn’t know about all this you said! Melody, quickly tell me what exactly happened during the time I was away."

Faced with Neal’s inquiry, Melody Parker slowly recounted everything that had happened during this period.

While listening to Melody’s narration, Neal Galan’s emotions changed from time to time following her story.

He felt heartache for Melody’s plight, hated Virgil Davies’ shamelessness... Of course, after Melody finished narrating everything, he immediately stated his position, "Melody, don’t be afraid. In the future, I’ll be with you, facing everything together."

Seeing Neal’s concern for her, Melody felt very touched.

Now that she has cured the poison and found Adrian, what she wants to do now is to help Adrian regain his memory.

The two little darlings have their biological father’s love, she’s no longer worried.

If one day Adrian can regain his memory, it will be even more complete.

Looking at Neal, she wiped her tears and nodded heavily, "Neal, thank you. I wish for you to also find happiness, not just always be by my side!"

Neal Galan looked at Melody with deep affection and nodded, "Melody, as long as you’re happy, I’ll be happy."

Faced with the deeply affectionate Neal Galan, she really didn’t know what to say.

Her heart has already fallen for Adrian, so since she can’t respond to Neal, she can only clearly refuse as before.

Although he is her destined fate, in this life they can only be friends and family.

Melody Parker looked at Neal Galan, "Neal, I’m sorry, you know, I..."

Knowing what Melody was about to say, Neal interrupted her, "Melody, I just want to see you happy. I’ll protect you."

After finishing, without waiting for Melody to say anything, Neal stood up, "Melody, it’s already very late, I’ll go first. Tomorrow I’ll come back and take you and the little ones out to eat."

Melody also stood up, "Okay, then rest well."

After sending Neal away, Melody went to the kids’ room.

Seeing the little ones already asleep on the bed, Melody walked closer.

She leaned down, leaving kisses on their cheeks, softly and firmly saying: Babies, believe in mommy, your daddy will soon be back with us.

The next day, Neal, as promised, took the twins and Melody Parker out for a meal.

They went to the renowned Apevan Restaurant in Europe.

Apevan Restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere, every table has warm candlelight, and soothing light music plays inside.

With Neal and Melody now dining here with the twins, they more or less resemble a family.

Neal Galan thoughtfully cut the steak in front of him and handed it to Melody, "Melody, eat."

Melody didn’t take it, smiling as she declined, "No need, Neal, I can do it myself."

But Neal didn’t heed Melody’s refusal. Instead, he placed the cut steak onto Melody’s table and took hers to his side.

Daniel Davies frowned, poking at the steak in front of him repeatedly, grumbling internally, "Didn’t he see mommy refused? Yet he brazenly continues trying to please!"

Benjamin Parker looked at Neal, grumbling in dissatisfaction, "Uncle Galan, you don’t love the little ones anymore? Why are you only cutting steak for mommy and not caring for us!"

Neal laughed, reaching out to ruffle Benjamin’s hair, his voice full of doting, "Little one, are you jealous? Wait a bit, Uncle Galan’s piece will be ready for you."

"No need, Neal, give mine to him." Saying this, Melody Parker placed her steak in front of Benjamin, taking his to her side.

Benjamin’s scheme succeeded; he raised his brow at Daniel and then chirped, "Thank you, mommy!"

Melody smiled, full of doting affection.

She watched Daniel’s skilled movements, feeling very happy.

Then, she turned her head, with a smile on her face, and asked Neal gently, "Neal, did you stay at the hotel last night?"

Neal smiled, "Yes, right in the room next to yours."

Hearing this, Daniel immediately became alert: The enemy has reached the doorstep? No way, he must quickly think of a plan to help daddy regain memory; if not, at least make daddy aware of the threat.

Thinking this, Daniel took out his small phone and sent out a message.

The message content was simple, merely a shared location.

Not long after Daniel’s message was sent out, there was a ding, and Adrian Davies’ phone received a text.

Adrian picked up his phone to check, an unfamiliar number.

This phone number is his private number, not many people know it.

Could it be...
