Chapter 1911 "How dare you accuseof making things up? Have you forgotten what you did yesterday?" Melody pulled out the USB drive the bar owner had given her. "Even if you've forgotten, that's okay. I have evidence! Shall I play it for everyone to watch?" Wendy was momentarily stunned. This marked the first tin many years that Melody had straightforwardly vehemently opposed her. Perhaps knowing she had a place to go in the coming year made Melody less fearful of being kicked out of the family.

Mom and Dad might forgive you if you just admit your fault!" However, Wendy's efforts to stop Melody seemed to underscore the strength of the evidence in Melody's possession.
Melody turned to Ethan, saying, "Dad, I'm still your daughter. Can't you at least givea chance to prove my innocence?" For the first tin many years, Ethan took a serious look at Melody. Somehow, she seemed different from before.
"Alright, I'll give you a chance. Showthe evidence you've got!" As Ethan asked to see Melody's evidence, Wendy quickly rushed forward and grabbed his arm. "Dad, what are you doing? Melody must be lying. Don't..." "Enough." Despite not being overly fond of Melody, Ethan still had a soft spot for Wendy. However, he made the rare choice not to listen to her, saying, "Wendy, lies can't fool me. Let's see what evidence she can present. Thus, Wendy could not do anything more. She could only shoot a fierce glare at Melody, secretly hoping that Melody was just bluffing.
The family gathered in the living room, and Melody brought out her laptop. Inserting the USB drive, she opened the first video.

Wendy was taken aback by Melody having access to the bar's surveillance footage. However, she quickly regained composure and put on a pitiful took, explaining, "Dad, Helen, I didn't lie to Melody. I was genuinely upset last night! You both know, I used to have a crush on a celebrity, but he recently announced that he has a girlfriend. I was really heartbroken, so I just asked Melody to cout and keepcompany."
"Yeah, Wendy told US about it. She has a crush on a male celebrity! What's his name..." Helen was eager to support Wendy who could help her to gain favor from Ethan. She immediately sided with Wendy, saying, "Wendy is just upset. What's wrong with keeping her company, Melody?"
'This is my biological mom, but she's never comfortedlike this...' Watching Helen sitting beside Wendy and consoling her, Melody felt a pang of heartache. In her childhood, it was more about envy, but as she grew up, the emotions evolved into a mix of pain and irony. "I wouldn't have minded just keeping her company for a drink, but Wendy schemed against me! She wanted to sendto another man's bed to secure a role in a movie, and she then slanderedfor being someone else's mistress! How is that okay?" After saying this, Melody played the second video, which clearly showed Wendy hugging and laughing flirtatiously with a man.
