Though Melody often trailed behind Martin, he always made sure everything was taken care of for her, regardless of how busy he was.

But on the rare occasions he couldn't be with her, she patiently waited for him to pick her up after class, cherishing their walks home together.

Their relationship was pure and innocent.

Melody's dependence on him deepened after the incident with Martin.

She begged him to take her out of the Shields to visit him.

At that time, the Shields was locked down, and Melody was punished by having to kneel at the altar for four days and nights. When she finally emerged, she was so weak she could hardly stand. That was Kenrick's first time disregarding Timothy's objections, insisting on staying outside the altar with

her.

In his eyes, Melody had endured far too much. He understood that the Shields wanted to keep her away from the Tuckers, but he also felt deep sympathy for her unwavering resolve. So during those four days, Melody kneeled inside the altar while he waited outside.

As the four days came to a close, he entered to support her, feeding her water and food and gently stroking her hair with genuine concern. "Mel, why do you put yourself through this?"

At that moment, Melody looked as fragile as a chick, curled up with barely any flesh on her bones. Her eyes were swollen, and her lips were pale and peeling

She was a shadow of the vibrant, ethereal girl Martin had once protected and cared for.

At that time, he felt a deep sadness.

bly gave her several sips of water.

He quickly

Only then did she regain her breath, her voice rough and hoarse yet still laced with concern as she clutched Kenrick's shirt tightly, tears brimming in her eyes. But she fought hard to keep them from spilling,

Her lips trembled as she slowly looked down, her voice filled with desperation. "Kenrick, can you replace a way to let me see Martin?

"He'll be okay, right?"

The 16-year-old girl seemed to have matured overnight. She didn't complain about her suffering; she only

wanted one outcome.

Veronica didn't want her to have any further contact with the Tuckers.

She claimed Melody couldn't change her 'poor life!"

But she was a person with her own thoughts, The Tuckers had raised her for many years, and it wasn't enough for Arnold to just threw some money at them to settle things. As human beings, we have feelings!

Kenrick sighed, guiding her outside. "I'm very sorry about Martin's situation.

Tve already asked my father to speak with the Shields, I'll take you to see Martin now."

Perhaps this would be the last time Melody would see lijm.

At his core, Kenrick held a hint of masculinity; he quietly admired Melody and was always willing to help whenever she needed it.

But he was equally kind to everyone.

He felt a responsibility to rescue and care for others.

In that moment, Melody nodded weakly, fully aware that Kenrick had only just been returned to the Paynes.

The Paynes were wealthier and more powerful than the Shields, and Kenrick would be under tremendous pressure to ask his father to intervene for her.

In that instant, Melody felt a wave of gratitude.

She lowered her slender neck, looking down with appreciation.

"Thank you, Ken.

"And thank you for staying outside the altar with me these past four days."

Actually, you have no obligation to be so kind to me.

She didn't voice that last thought.

Kenrick felt an overwhelming sense of fulfillment in that moment, a warmth that comes from being recognized by the person he cared for.

He helped Melody into the small car that would take them to the hospital, his tired eyes softening with tenderness.

"Silly, Martin told me to take care of you.

'I did.

"I've lived up to his trust in me."

At that moment, he truly had.

But what about later?

As he supported the fragile Suzanna, standing across from Melody, Kenrick couldn't help but reflect.
