To be honest, Melody Foster only felt slightly uneasy when Darton Thompson was with her.
She found it strange.
Darton Thompson seemed so enthusiastic and friendly, but Melody Foster always felt there was... a dangerous aura about her.
Was it her being too sensitive, or was it jealousy?
Logically, Nigel Clegg was sharper and better at observing.

It's better to be cautious.
Melody Foster thought.
Her life had been smooth sailing in the first half.
And it seemed to be a happy ending up until now.
However, only she knew what her heart had been through.
Her sister, the sister she had grown up with, what she had done to her...
The issue with Jane Foster made Melody Foster understand an old saying.
A drop of grace for a favor, a scoop of grudge for a charity.
If you only give someone a small favor, they might be eternally grateful to you.
