His Heiress Wife (Retika)

The incident had been taken care of by the event's organizers, but it was certain that Avery had offended Rachel because of what she said about Yosef.And because of what happened, everyone decided to head back.Melody slowed her steps down to catch on Yosef as they were walking.

"Why didn't you tell them what you saw?"

Although they were only centimeters apart, Melody didn't even turn to Yosef beside her as she asked.She kept her gaze ahead as if she was only talking to herself.

Melody knew that Yosef was behind her in the water then, but she still continued to attack Avery.She didn't even hesitate nor care even if someone else was there.

Yosef raised an eyebrow and chuckled.Then a ghost of a smile escaped his lips.

"I didn't say what I saw this morning either’ he said.

At breakfast that morning, Avery made Sarah trip on her feet.

Noah saw it, but it was not only him.

Yosef saw it, too.

But Yosef didn't feel the urge to tell anyone about it, which was the same case with him not telling anyone about what he saw in the water.

Besides, it was simple logic.

Sarah got hurt because of Avery, so her sister went to avenge her by making Avery have a sweet taste of the seawater.

Furthermore, Yosef was technically a bystander in the face of this skirmish.

Why would he care to intervene? It was never his character to stick his nose into other people's business.

And the only reason he said anything earlier was that Avery was being too loud and scandalous.

A woman like her should be reprimanded so she'd keep her mouth shut.

When they got back to their room, Sarah continued to complain about what happened as she sat on the bed.

"Why is that Avery so annoying? She must have done a lot of wicked things in the past that she met the ghosts underwater earlier.How dare she use this opportunity to frame you? How can a person like her exist?"

Melody leaned on the sofa lazily and closed her eyes, feeling too tired to hear Sarah's endless rants.

"I did it, okay" she said, still with her eyes closed, "That woman really..."

Sarah was about to spit out another series of rants when she heard Melody and stopped.

Her eyes widened, and she immediately turned around and looked at Melody incredulously.

Melody had always been indifferent and cold, despite her languid demeanor at the moment.
