"Didn''t you use me of being someone''s mistress? Well, let''s just say that I got it from my sugar daddy," said Melody. She did not bother borating. Instead, she just put away her phone and red at the three people in front of her.


    In terms of blood ties, they were the closest people to her in this world. Ironically, they were also the most heartless and malicious toward her.


    "The bnce check is done. Do you want this three million dors or not? Are you signing the agreement?"


    Helen smiled obsequiously at her. After all, she stood to get three million dors. "We''ll sign, of course."N?velDrama.Org holds this content.


    "All three of you need to personally sign it," said Melody.


    Lucas was right-there was a high chance that the Sander family would pull some underhanded stunt again once they had gotten the money.


    That was why Melody insisted on getting their signatures. This way, she could use the agreement to fight back against them if they went back on their word.


    "Ethan, do we sign?" Helen could make her own decisions, but she could not speak for Ethan. Thus, she needed to quietly wait for his decision.


    Ethan frowned at Melody for a while before nodding. "Well, she''s not nning to stick around and listen to us anyway, so why hesitate? Just sign it."


    With Ethan''s approval, the three of them quickly signed the digital agreement on Melody''s phone.


    Melody then tossed the bank card onto the coffee table. It was at that moment she hadpletely lost hope in them.


    "The money is all yours. I''m no longer your daughter from now on. Keep that in mind!" announced Melody.


    Helen eagerly took the bank card and sat next to Ethan, slipping it into her pocket excitedly. They only cared about money, and Melody was dispensable to them.


    Melody sighed and left the Sanders'' residence. Oddly enough, breaking free from her toxic family should have brought her joy, but there was not even a sense of relief. Instead, she felt a profound sense of rootlessness.


    ''This might be thest time Ie here. From now on, I won''t have a home...'' Melody thought sadly.


    "Alright, Melody! It''s time to live for yourself!" she said out loud to herself.


    After all, she did not have much time for sorrow. There were still many things waiting for her to tackle. She had a year to find a job and save enough money to sustain herself. Plus, she had to find a way to pay Lucas back the three million dors she owed him.


    ''How in the world am I going to earn that much money?'' wondered Melody. This heavy debt was stressing her out, and she began to fret.


    A ck car pulled up beside her, and Edmund stepped out, opening the car door for her. "Miss Melody, Mister Lucas asked me to pick you up."


    Melody was somewhat surprised to see him there, but she did not press for details. She nodded at him and got into the car.


    "Miss Melody, Mister Lucas asked me to give you this." Edmund handed her a box after he got into the car too.


    ''Lucas gave me this box?'' Melody epted the box and opened it to find a beautifully crafted dress inside.


    "Lucas gave me a dress? Is there an asion he needs me to attend?"
