Chapter 700 Why Don''t You Look Back
Thomas'' eyes widened in disbelief, and his body trembled slightly. He gripped Lisa''s clothes tightly and
his face turned pale. He looked pitiful.
His mother was Auntie April. Why was there another one suddenly?
"Auntie Lisa, is this my mother? My mother is not her!"

Tears streamed down his cheeks. He raised his head to look at Lisa, trying to find an answer.
Lisa looked at Thomas in embarrassment and didn''t know how to express herself. After all, what
Melody said was right, but his real mother was Hester.
"Why are you here?"
Lisa was in a dilemma when a gloomy voice interrupted her. Terence was dressed in a ck handmade
suit. His long body slowly approached, automatically forming a faint aura, which was shocking.
Melody''s body suddenly stiffened, and the footsteps behind her gradually approached, step by step,
making her panic.
She gripped her hand tightly, afraid that he would get close, but at the same time, she was looking
forward to it. The two emotions intertwined and almost broke her into pieces.
"Sir!"
Terence nodded at Lisa. His eyes fell on Thomas, and he raised his eyebrows slightly. He sighed and
turned to look at Melody.
"Why are you here?"
It was obvious that he was ming her for breaking in without permission. How could a smart person
like Melody not know what he meant?
But she needed his care and love to save her dirty soul. She didn''t want to feel the darkness again for
even a second.
The moment she turned around, she had cleared up all the messy thoughts in her mind. She smiled
sweetly.
"Terence, you are back."
Raising his eyebrows, Terence dodged her deliberately. He slowly walked upstairs, squatted down and
looked at Thomas'' unhappy face, heartbroken.
"Why do you put on a long face? Who made you unhappy?"
Hearing his father''s concern, the tears that he had just stopped copsed in an instant. His tears were
like broken beads.
"Dad, she said I should call her mom. Is it true?"
Terence''s face darkened in an instant, and his eyes shed, concealing the hidden gloom. He raised
his hand to wipe the tears on his face and coaxed him softly.
"Well, don''t cry. She was just kidding. Don''t take it seriously! You have seen your mother before, right?
Didn''t you cry and shout for being with her several times? Why do you forget it now?"
"Really?"
Looking at Terence, Thomas managed to stop crying. A pair of small hands clutched the hem of his
clothes and confirmed with worry.
He was afraid that his mother, whom he had tried so hard to find back, was not his mother, and that
what this woman said was true. Then he would really be a child without a mother, with a vicious
stepmother like the queen of snow white.
Squatting on the ground, Terence wiped the tears off his face patiently, frowning. His nominal marriage
with Melody should have broken up three years ago, and there wouldn''t be such a difficult thing today.
"Of course it''s true. Thomas has only one mother!"
Thomas gradually calmed down and felt at ease. At least, he didn''t have to face a stepmother, which
was a happy thing for him.
After coaxing Thomas, Terence nced at Lisa.
"Take him back to his room!"
"Yes, sir!"
After getting the order, Lisa acted quickly without hesitation. ''If Mr. Terence wants to solve the problem
with Melody, of course it''s not appropriate for the young master to be present.''
"Get out!"
As soon as Terence gave the order, all the busy servants put down their work and left with their heads
down. For a moment, only the two of them quietly confronted each other in the huge house.
Slowly walking down the stairs, Terence withdrew his suit and casually put it on the sofa. He looked up
at Melody, who was pretending to be shy, with a sh of disgust in his eyes.
He often recalled the past, but he still couldn''t remember why he liked Melody. He even kept his
integrity for her, andter hurt Hester so deeply.
Maybe life is so ridiculous. Many things can''t leave a clue, but they are ced there,ughing at your
ignorance and stupidity.
"Sit down!"
Melody clenched her fists and sat down beside him. After three years, she finally got so close to him
again.
Her nose was full of his smell, which tightly surrounded her, making her feel at ease.
"Terence, long time no see."
Terence sneered and fixed his eyes on the floor, thinking about something. He tapped his knee with his
slender fingers.
"Yes! Long time no see."
Melody was so excited to be so close to him again that she didn''t know what to do. Her fingertips were
hard embedded in her palm, but she didn''t feel any pain at all.
She couldn''t restrain her excitement, which made her feel very uneasy sitting here.
"Terence, I miss you every day in the past three years."
"Melody, I don''t want to argue with you about what happened three years ago. It''s time to settle the
matter between us. After all, it''s not good to dy it all the time!"
Terence stared at Melody expressionlessly. His tone was neither anxious nor slow, as if he was talking
about the weather.
"I know you are too busy to see me. But now I have recovered. I will definitely be a good wife. I will take
care of our family in an orderly way, so that you can focus on your work!"
Holding Terence''s hand, Melody trembled slightly. She looked at him happily and indulged herself in her
fantasy. She thought that as long as she could be a good wife, Terence would definitely like her.
Hester, that bitch, was just a mistress who wanted to destroy other people''s family. How could she be
sandwiched between them?
Withdrawing his hand indifferently, Terence took a deep breath and tried to keep calm.
"I hope you won''t step into the Qi family any more, and don''t talk nonsense with Thomas. You know
that there is no other rtionship between us."
"No way! We used to love each other so much. How could we break up?"
Hearing Terence''s words, Melody was immediately agitated. She held his hand more tightly.
"Terence, I''ve been waiting for you for three years. Why don''t you look back at me?"
