FreeNovelThere were times Lucas could feel as though Melody had feelings for him, so he could not understand why she was that reluctant to reconsider their relationship.
Melody cried and shouted, "Why should I be with someone who doesn't know how to respect me? Do you even know the meaning of the word 'respect'? Just because you are the Rivera Group's president doesn't mean you can treatbadly." Melody's shoulders were trembling, and she closed her eyes to try and stop herself from crying.

"Lie? When did I lie to you? I don't understand what you're accusingof!" Lucas retracted his hand. His expression soured, and he gazed down at the crying Melody.
Melody smiled bitterly. "You don't understand anything, do you?" "Yes, I don't," Lucas answered frankly and his frown grew deeper. "How am I supposed to understand if you don't tellanything?" SeaR*ch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Lucas thought to himself, 'Why can't she just make things clear? It would've been much easier forto understand her if she just explained everything to me! Then we wouldn't have been in this situation in the first place!' Their ttogether seemed to have been all for naught, and he was even accused of being disrespectful.
"I feel disrespected because you think you're never in the wrong! Tell me, do you treat Thalia the sway you're treating me?" Melody clenched her fists. She tried to stop her tears and attempted to portray herself in a less bitter tone. Lucas, as expected, could not understand why Melody was mentioning Thalia.
Lucas said angrily, "This is between you and me. Why are you bringing up Thalia's name? She's not as difficult to understand as you are!" Melody was hurt by his words. "Yes, Thalia's better than me. She's neither as sensitive nor as difficult to understand as I am. I'm not fit to be with you, so don't bother askingto reconsider our relationship. Just forget about it." She turned away to stop Lucas from seeing her uncontrollable tears. Sadness and self-deprecation overwhelmed her heart. She wondered if her expectations had been too high when all she wished for was more respect from Lucas.

She had earlier maintained a reasonable social distance with Nathan when discussing their plan to address an interumor. Lucas, however, barged in without so much as a word and assaulted her coworker.
Melody wondered if Lucas would have been as rude to Thalia imam similar situation.
Lucas interpreted Melody's turning away as her refusal to look at him. He frowned and said, "How could you say that? Do you think he's better than me? If that's the case, then why don't you just go with him? I don't want to hear your excuses. If being withis making you feel so awkward, then just go ahead and leave!" Melody frowned and wondered why Lucas brought Nathan into the conversation.
