Nigel Clegg listened to Melody Foster say this.
For some reason, he suddenly blurted out, "I want to hear the truth."
The light in Melody Foster's eyes dimmed instantly.
Such words from him were undoubtedly telling her that he didn't believe anything she said.
"I can't make you believe me either," she said, her head lowered. "Because I have already done things that make me untrustworthy... But I can still tell you, sir, my father... he died suddenly."
Melody Foster told Nigel Clegg.
Her family used to be well-off, but since her mother died early, her father raised her and her sister on his own.
Her father loved her and her sister dearly, which is why he had never remarried.
Life was actually quite happy like that.
However, earlier this year, her father's business suddenly became embroiled in a massive debt dispute.
Faced with a pack of creditors fierce as wolves, her father died suddenly.
