Melody Thorne immediately covered her stomach to shield it from his gaze. Here, there would never be a child of Jared Quinn!
Perhaps seeing her expression of rejection, Jared Quinn's already rugged and stern face instantly dropped to an icy point. He stepped heavily and walked in, coincidentally standing right behind Melody Thorne, and very close to her.
Melody Thorne took a step forward, the man behind her also followed up a step, and he moved closer, with half of his body pressed against her back.
The contrast between his 1.88-meter sturdy physique and her petite 1.65-meter frame seemed like heaven and earth resonating, looking quite fitting.
Old Mr. Quinn squinted as he watched the interaction between the two, almost breaking into a smile, "Melody, you absolutely must promise grandpa, or if grandpa doesn't have a grandson, he surely won't rest in peace."
