From that day on, Melody made it a daily routine to bring meals to Cedric and Beatrice, trying to make up for her kitchen mishap.
As Cedric and Beatrice's health improved, the doctor eventually allowed them to leave the hospital.
Lucas took a break from his work to fetch Cedric and Beatrice from the hospital.
"Grandma, be careful!" Melody assisted Beatrice, helping her settle in the back seat before doing the same for Cedric.
There was no driver, and Lucas took the wheel himself. With Cedric and Beatrice in the back seat, Melody had no choice but to sit in the front passenger seat.
Beatrice observed Lucas and Melody's seemingly harmonious interaction and felt genuinely pleased.
"Have you both been enjoying your time at home these past few days?" she asked them.
She had worried a lot about Lucas's marriage before, but everything went seemingly smoothly. In fact, Melody had been alone at home for most of the time as Lucas had stayed out for most of the time. Lucas seemed uninterested in engaging in conversation, so Melody quickly took on the role of a dutiful wife, smiling as she replied, "We're doing well, Grandma. Don't worry."
Seeing her being so understanding, Beatrice's smile grew even more affectionate. "Melody, I can finally rest easy now that you're taking care of Lucas. Since you two are married, have you considered having children? Your grandpa and I can't wait to hold another great-grandchild in our arms!"
'Crap! How on earth am I supposed to respond to that?' Melody was stumped by the question. She shot a pleading look toward Lucas, silently hoping for some help.
"Grandma, having kids isn't in the immediate plans," Lucas replied calmly. His gaze remained fixed straight ahead as if discussing something as mundane as the weather.
Beatrice was far from pleased with his answer. "You're already thirty. When do you plan on having kids? Melody, don't listen to his nonsense. You should start getting ready for pregnancy."
"I understand, Grandma. We'll...do our best!" replied Melody with an awkward laugh. She blushed as she lowered her head.
Even though she knew there would not be anything intimate between her and Lucas, she still felt shy about this topic.
Beatrice was satisfied with Melody's response. She then turned to Cedric and took his hand. "See, I told you finding someone to manage this brat was a good idea. With Melody around, we can finally rest easy!"
Cedric nodded, agreeing with Beatrice.
Lucas drove smoothly throughout the journey, and they quickly arrived back home.
Melody thoughtfully helped Cedric and Beatrice back to their room, where the servants prepared tea and snacks.
