His Heiress Wife (Retika)

Chapter 200: You Know a Lot

Seth turned his head to look at Melody.

He saw her dozing off as she leaned herself against the window and gently closed her eyes.He reached out his broad hand and gently wrapped it around Melody's shoulder.

By applying a little force, she had no choice but to fall down and lean into his arms.

Melody frowned as she noticed how Seth moved swiftly.He seemed natural and sophisticated. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

When she was just about to move away from him, Seth opened his mouth and started talking gently.

He said, "Don’t move.It's more comfortable if you rest like this.".

He started gently massaging her scalp with his cold fingers as he spoke.His actions made Melody feel at ease.

She started to get more comfortable as he continued to massage her scalp.

In a blink of an eye, Melody didn’t want to get away from him anymore.

She originally wanted to get away, but now, her eyes were narrowed as if she was a cat that had been fed.

Seth lowered his eyes and saw how Melody leaned against his abdomen.She looked like a tamed cat, trying to fight off her sleepiness but failing to do so.She became completely different from the usual Melody, whose demeanor was cold and aloof enough to scare and reject even those who were far from her.

She became completely different from the usual Melody, who rode the motorcycle at full speed as if racing against the wind.

She was completely different from the bossy Melody, who was full of vigor earlier in the club.

At this moment, Melody seemed like a well-behaved little girl who made people feel sorry for her.

Seth thought, 'How many faces does she have? How could she be like this but be a different person later on?’

He was really confused.He was only sure about one thing.

The woman sleeping in his arms was always full of surprises.

Although this was the case, he had no intention to look for all her sides.

It just made him even more excited.

All he had to do was silently look forward to the brilliance that would come out of her every time she would change into an unusual version of herself.

After some time, Melody woke up.She didn't know how long she had been asleep.

It was the first time she fell asleep so quickly that she didn't even notice it.

Melody would usually have a hard time dozing off.Her sleeping habit was as bad as one could imagine.She was sensitive when it came to sleeping.

Only when she could feel safe would she consider sleeping in the place.

Furthermore, even if she did fall asleep, her brain would still be on high alert.She would be able to wake up if she felt any movement.

Sleeping soundly like earlier was really unusual.

When she opened her eyes, she could only see pitch black in front of her.She was stunned for a moment before she realized that she was still in Seth's car.She found herself resting on his soft abdomen not shortly after.

"Are you awake?" Seth suddenly asked.

His voice was so deep that it filled the whole car, waking up every inch of Melody's body.She snorted as she slowly sat up with her elbow on the cushion.

The man's hand slowly moved to her neck.He started to gently rub her slender neck with his finger.

She fell asleep while leaning against him a while ago.When she woke up, her neck felt sore and stiff.

Melody felt a little better as Seth massaged her neck.

Indeed, she was enjoying the man’s considerate service that she couldn't help but close her eyes.She asked casually, "How long have I been asleep?"

"About an hour or so!" Seth answered.

He reached out for a cup of hot tea and handed it to Melody as he said, "Drink some hot tea.It’s good for your throat!"

It was as if he had the ability to read minds.

He didn't need her explanation to determine what she lacked the most and what she wanted the most.

After drinking a few mouthfuls of hot tea, Melody felt relieved as if she had been revived.

Melody never imagined that she would sleep in Seth's car for so long.

Even now, she felt as if she had only slept for ten minutes.

"Have you learned it before?" she suddenly asked.

After some massaging, she noticed that Seth was targeting all the acupoints on her body.

His hands were accurate in perfectly pressing every acupoint, making Melody's exhaustion fade rather quickly.

The man smiled faintly as he gazed at Melody.

His originally handsome face became even more profound and charming because of his smile.

He answered, "I already know what medicine to take when I get sick."

Melody was stunned for a moment.She didn't expect this kind of answer from him.

"Is there something wrong with your shoulder and neck?" she asked.

Seth quickly answered, "I have been training hard since my old man sent me away to train when I was young.Of course, due to the hard training, there had been times when I get tired."

He didn’t say something profound or emotional, but Melody understood the meaning behind his words.

Despite the fact that she had never seen Seth fight, she was confident that his martial arts skill was no less than hers.

He had excellent martial arts skills not only because he was born talented but also because he spent a lot of time training so hard.

She had experienced all of this before, so she knew how bitter a real training was, better than anyone else.It seemed like a simple sentence, but it meant a lot.

"I know already know what medicine to take when I get sick."

No one knew how much hardship and sweat he had to shed to spit out this sentence.It was a difficult journey.

Looking back now, it felt like it had been a piece of cake for him.

After she completely calmed down, Melody stretched herself, pushed the door open, and got off to go upstairs and rest.She wasn't expecting Seth to push open the door and stand beside her.

"I can go up on my own," Melody said.

Seth smiled faintly as his pitch-black eyes were flashing a shine like those of the stars in the galaxy.

"You're wrong!"he said.

"What?" Melody asked as he looked at him in confusion.

Seth walked towards her, held her hand, and continued to walk forward naturally.

The elevator finally stopped at the floor that belonged to her.

Then, Seth took out the key in his pocket and shook it at her.

His face was full of pride as he displayed ah a rare smile.

The seriousness and awkwardness were now gone.

Only a hint of childishness remained.

"Nice to meet you! I live next door.Please take care of me in the future!" he said.

Only then did Melody realize that the new neighbor that Sarah mentioned was none other than Seth.

"Why did you suddenly think of moving here?"

Melody couldn't help but ask.

The Harrisons owned countless top-notch villas.

Living in a small apartment would certainly not fit him.

"This building was developed by the Adams Family.When Iven left a flat for himself, he also gave me my own flat!"

Seth casually replied.

For them, it was just a mere house.

Indeed, the world of the rich was different.

It was so easy for him to say that Iven left a flat for him to stay.

However, it was not one of the small apartments downstairs.It was the most luxurious flat on the top floor.

If Melody knew that Seth actually gave up his own luxurious flat on the top floor in exchange for such a small apartment, she would probably think that the man in front of her was crazy.

But since he had already moved in, she couldn't do anything even if she complained.She knew that the only thing she could do was to welcome him.

So, she stretched out her hand towards Seth and said gracefully, "Welcome, new neighbor!"

He crossed his arms and grabbed Melody's small hand tightly with his large palm, gently kneading it.

He said, "Mellie, I'll be responsible for sending you to school!"

Melody raised her eyebrows and looked at him with her sharp eyes, confused about what he had just said.

Those eyes were too shrewd.

Even a sophisticated man like Seth almost couldn't hold it in.

He could only shrug his shoulders as he honestly said, "The weather has been cold recently.You have to ride a car to go to school.Girls aren't allowed to get too cold!"

Melody glanced at him coldly and said, "You know a lot!"

As soon as she finished talking, she turned around and entered the room.

With a loud bang, Melody’s door closed.

For the first time in his life, Seth turned away.

His little tricks couldn't fool her.He was not doing it because he didn’t believe in Melody.

He just thought that being in a car would be safer than riding a motorcycle.

After all, he didn't want Melody to get involved in an accident.

Even though it was something that had a low chance of happening, he still didn't want to take the risk!
