A Relentless Pursuit for Love
Chapter 428

Chapter 428 Melody's cries rang throughout the whole course and that drew everybody's attention.Sage, Leah, and Hunter immediately went over to Melody and before Yoel could say anything, allthree of them said in unison, “Did you hurt her?” “I didn't, it's not me. I didn’t do anything!"explained Yoel, clearly flustered from all the commotion.

Melody doesn't cry often, but when the tears started to flow, it couldn't be stopped. Melody lookedtoward Sage and said, “Sage, he..." Yoel couldn't believe what he was hearing, and looked at Melodyin disbelief. Sage stared at Yoel menacingly, “Don't be afraid, Melody. Tell me, what did he do toyou?” Melody replied in between sobs, “He... he was mean to me.” Yoel couldn't believe that sheactually thought that he was mean to her. “What did I say?” asked Yoel.

Melody snapped around and stared at Yoel with tears still flowing down her face. Her eyes werenow red from crying, and her nose was stuffed. She said, “You were laughing at how I fell off apony!” “l was just stating facts,’ thought Yoel to himself. However, when Yoel saw the tears streakingdown Melody's face, he felt a pang of guilt in his stomach. He quickly apologized, “I'm sorry, I didn'tmean it as an insult. I'll make sure it pays for scaring you the way it did. Ill flog it until it learns itslessons” “No!” Melody exclaimed and her sobbing finally stopped, “It's my pony, don't you dare dothat!”

Yoel smiled and said, “As long as you don't cry, I won't.” “Okay, I'll stop crying,” Melody promised asshe rubbed the tears on her face with the back of her hand.

Melody finally realized that she was sitting on an actual horse and she immediately exclaimed, “Thatwas so high!” Melody unconsciously grabbed Yoel's tighs. She looked around and felt the urge tocry again.” How do I get down?” asked Melody. Melody turned helplessly towards Sage, “Sage,help...” Sage shook her head and said, “Sorry, I can't do anything about that. I can’t carry you.”Melody’s eyes widen in disbelief, did Sage just call her fat? Yoel chuckled and he grabbed Melodyby her waist. Melody felt the wind rush past her ears and the next thing she knew, her feet weretouching the ground. “How did I get off? That was amazing.” Melody thought to herself.

Melody watched Yoel intently, she stared at his immaculate structure and she could feel herselfgetting lost in his eyes, all her previous negative emotions slowly dissipating. Suddenly, Melodybroke into laughter. Although there were still some tears in her eyes, her smile turned intosomething like a sun cutting through a hazy, rainy day. “Thank you for saving me,” thanked Melody.Yoel was surprised by the sudden change in attitude.

Even if Yoel was caught off guard by how quickly Melody’'s mood changed, he still felt pleasantlysurprised. “At least she knows how to be grateful towards her savior,” thought Yoel to himself.“You're welcome,” Yoel replied as he ruffled Melody's hair. Yoel couldn't fault a child. He was anadult after all.
