Chapter 47 

Melanie could hear and sense that Roderick was trying his best to restrain himself. 

She was putting his self–control to the test if she wriggled at that time. 

Melanie had no choice but to stay motionless in his arms. 

She felt her heart race as she listened to Roderick’s hammering heartbeat. 

Their heartbeats echoed with each other in the silent hall of flowers, loud and low, heavily and lightly, but strangely harmonious and mellifluous. 

After a long while, Roderick whispered in her ear, “Mela, when will you marry me?” 

Hearing this, Melanie pushed Roderick away like a frightened fawn. 

“I won’t marry you,” Melanie refused immediately. 

Roderick was stunned for a moment. 

“Why? We’ve already had Ethan and Elias. Do you have the heart to let them grow up in a broken home?” 

“No reason,” Melanie replied, looking indifferent. 

“As I said, I won’t marry you. I don’t want to talk about it again!” 

Before Roderick could speak, Melanie added, “Elias can stay here, but I’ll take Ethan away!” 

“Mela…” Roderick called softly, lowering his eyes. 

Soon, Geoffrey arranged for a servant to invite Melanie over, saying that Ethan and Elias were with him now. 

Melanie hesitated. 

Roderick followed and asked, “Mela, don’t you want to meet my grandpa?” 

“Of course not, I’ll go in right now,” Melanie replied. 

As soon as Geoffrey saw her, he kept calling her name fondly, treating her as his future granddaughter–in–law.

It made her embarrassed. 

“I wanted to tell you that if you don’t want to meet my grandpa, I can take Ethan out!” Roderick chuckled again. 

“Ah!” Melanie suddenly stopped. “Are you willing to let me take Ethan home?” 

“Of course!” Roderick nodded. “He’s sensible, who can help me take care of you.” 

Melanie thought, ‘What the hell? Do I need a kid to take care of me?” 

Melanie opened her mouth, but no words came out. 

She didn’t bother arguing with Roderick. 

She would meet his grandfather since he wanted to have a word with her. It was a 

courtesy. 

However, Roderick had a conscience, who was willing to help her bring Ethan out. 

As soon as she arrived at the door of Geoffrey’s courtyard, Kevin, Geoffrey’s servant, went up to greet her. 

“Ms. Robertson, you’re here. Mr. Lambert can’t wait to see you! Please come in! 

Kevin addressed her so formally. Apparently, he considered her as Roderick’s future wife. 

Melanie’s face blushed instantly. 

She quickly waved her hand.. 

“Kevin, you can call me Melanie or Mela!” 

“Never mind. You’ll marry Mr. Lambert sooner or later!” 

Kevin’s smile made him look amusing. 

“Please come in, Ms. Robertson!” 

Melanie was tongue–tied. 

When she walked to the front door, she didn’t see Ethan, Elias, and even Geoffrey. 

Kevin, who was walking in front of her, noticed she had stopped and said, “Ms.

Robertson, this way, please!” 

Then he went back through the screened–in porch. 

Melanie had to follow closely behind. 

Unexpectedly, he turned three corners and went through four doors. 

While Melanie was nervous, she heard Ethan and Elias‘ cheerful voice. 

After entering another door, he heard Ethan shouting, “Mommy, come and have a look. Great Grandpa wants to give me this!” 

Melanie’s scalp tingled.
