"Mister Lucas, I know you're here. Now that Melody says that she'll answer the question after getting your approval, do you agree to let her share the details surrounding your relationship?" the fan asked. Melody's expression soured when she heard that.
Lucas was not a public figure, and Melody was always mindful to ensure he received his privacy. Even though he claimed not to mind, she tried to limit their outings to avoid the constant scrutiny from the paparazzi. She did not want Lucas to be thrust into the public eye because of her, and it scarcely crossed her mind that her own fans would cross the line.
The girl who had called out to Lucas seemed undeterred by the disapproval from others and had an eager expression on her face. "Aren't you all curious?" she asked everyone around her. "I know I am. Besides, Melody herself said it. All she needs is his green light. A lot of people are speculating that Melody is receiving his backing, and the insinuation leaves a bitter taste in all our mouths, to put it mildly. Don't you want Melody to set the record straight and put an end to these rumors once and for all?" she persisted.
While some were swayed by her words, others chastised her firmly. "You're only trying to satisfy your curiosity! Stop using all that as an excuse."
"The rumors will never end. Do you expect Melody to address each one individually? We've ignored them in the past, and you're just blowing this out of proportion. Now you're going so far as to pressure her to divulge details about their past! You seem to have already formed your own opinion of her. If you can't trust Melody, what good are you as her fan?" another supporter chimed in.
Many nodded in agreement, as they were not willing to bring any unnecessary trouble to Melody. "Exactly! If you trust her, there's no need to demand an explanation. If you don't, then no amount of explanation will ever be enough."
Upon seeing the commotion, Paige gestured to Melody and urged her to salvage the situation before it soured further.
Lucas frowned and eyed with scrutiny the so-called fan who posed that question earlier. He noted down her seat number and intended to investigate further. Although she claimed to be a fan, her inquiries mirrored those of gossip reporters. A true fan would not act like that.
Even though Thalia was incarcerated, Melody's popularity had attracted envy and malice from many other quarters. Wendy was no longer the sole threat; other people might resort to similar tactics too.
As Melody was about to respond, the fan interjected once more, "Are you guilty? Are the claims in those tabloids real? Are you engaged in the kind of relationship that needs to be kept under wraps? If that's the case, then m deeply disappointed thought you were a beacon of prínciple and joy, I didn't expect the rumors to be true. You've let me down."

As Melody motioned for the director's assistance to mute the microphone, the fan continued to insist. She m shouted into the silenced mic, "Why did you mute me? If the rumors are true, then what gives you the right to take our money for this

At that point, Lucas was almost
certain the person was not a genuine fan. Her sole intent was to disrupt
and sow discord. True supporters might be able to turn blind eye to that rabble-rousing, but they would still feel incredibly unsettled by what had been words. On one hand, they would be concerned that it might have an effect on Melody. On the other hand, there was no way to avoid the agitation. Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
