Melody returned to the York residence, and Echo rushed to the door to greet her.
Echo was now very dependent on Melody, as if it knew that she would be its only owner from now on.
Melody felt terrible after meeting Jeremy. She also understood that her feelings for him weren't something she could let go of so easily.
Even when she tried to calm herself down, she couldn't help but doubt if breaking up with him had been an impulsive decision.
But… the feeling of being constantly ignored was really painful. It was as if she were just a free gift in a store—something that was there, but not truly needed.
Melody played with Echo for a while.
Soon, her phone buzzed beside her. She picked it up and saw that Matthew had sent her a bunch of photos and videos, along with various certificates about Echo.
He also sent a voice message, saying, "These photos and videos were taken on the island previously. I've recorded a video for each check-up, so you can rest assured to review them.
"Also, the documents for Echo's return to the country have all been taken care of. I'll give them to Dr. Chesson, and you can pick them up from him directly."
Melody wasn't very familiar with Matthew, but she knew that whenever Jeremy needed something, he would go directly to him. He was probably his personal assistant, or something like that.
After looking at what Matthew had sent, she had to admit that Jeremy was indeed more meticulous and thoughtful than she was.
She hugged Echo and lowered her gaze. Upon thinking back to what she had said to Jeremy the previous night, her heart started to hurt again.
Perhaps, at least when it came to Echo, she shouldn't have said that to him.
…
…
Melody didn't expect to run into Jeremy at the hospital the next morning, and it happened to be in the elevator too.
However, unlike the night before, he didn't try to talk to her. It was as if he didn't even see her. He simply discussed some patients' conditions with Harold.
As soon as Melody stepped out of the elevator, Harold sighed and said, "You didn't have to do that. Melody clearly wanted to talk to you just now, but you were so cold. Who would dare say anything?"
Jeremy glanced at his phone and flatly replied, "I don't want to talk to her. She was the one who brought up the breakup. Does she expect me to beg her to get back together?"
He stepped out of the elevator and continued, "Dating her was exhausting, and work is already overwhelming enough. I don't have the time to coax her. I'm not a masochist, looking for trouble for myself."
