The rumors swirling outside would never affect the steadfast support from Melody's fans. However, they had to pay a steep price for giving that support due to the immense psychological pressure that they had to endure. While Melody wished that she could dispel every rumor, it was always wise to leave some rumors unaddressed.

"Please be silent for a moment and hear me out," Melody pleaded with her audience. "I understand that you might all harbor doubts about me due to the influence that magazines might have on you.
