Flynn stole glances at Melanie quietly when he entered the car. This woman risked her life because she wanted to save her mother.
She was a very sweet woman, so sweet.
''Hey, drive to Mrs. Tatum's house,'' Flynn said to the driver.
''Hey!'' Melanie widened her eyes and faced Flynn.
''What?'' Flynn mouthed.
''Why are we going to my mother's place?'' Melanie queried.
''Don't you miss your mum? I bet she misses you already?'' Flynn asked, looking outside the window.
''Of course, I've missed her. You're just being suspicious. I hope my mum is fine,'' Melanie sulked.
Flynn looked at her and patted her hair, "Your mum is fine,'' He smiled.
A few minutes later, the car pulled in front of a white house, and Flynn held Melanie's hand.
''Be good okay?''
''Huh? What?'' Melanie furrowed her brow.
''Our wedding is on Saturday so stay with your mum till Friday. Devon will come and pick you on Friday evening,'' Flynn smiled.
''Wait... Are you serious right now?'' Melanie asked with her eyes popped out.
''Yes, I am,'' Flynn said and Melanie hugged him.
''Thank you very much.''
This girl was excited and it was evident on her face.
''Are you that happy?'' Flynn chuckled.
''Of course! I've missed her so much,'' Melanie grinned.
''I see. Send my regards to her anyways. I'll send my driver to bring your clothes,'' Flynn said.
''Are you not coming in?'' Melanie asked.
''No, I am not. Press the bell over there and the security man will open the gate for you,'' Flynn said, pointing at the bell beside the gate.
''Okay, thank you,'' Melanie said and turned to leave.
''Melanie,'' Flynn called out.
''Yes?''
Melanie glanced at Flynn, expecting the man to say whatever he wanted to say.
''Take care of yourself, okay?'' Flynn said and pulled her closer and kissed her forehead.
Melanie nodded her head and opened the car door. As she walked towards the big gate, she couldn't help but wonder why Flynn was being too sweet to her.
Whatever it was, she did not care right now.
All she cared about was seeing her beautiful mother.
Melanie pushed the door vigorously and a middle-aged man opened the gate.
''Hi, I'm here to...''
''You're miss Melanie, please come in,'' The man bowed and ushered her in.
Melanie smiled as she entered the house, she looked around the house and was gaped at what she saw.
The bungalow was painted white and chocolate, flowers were decorated in the compound which added more beauty to the house.
The house was extremely beautiful and noiseless which suited her mother's aura.
Gosh, she couldn't thank Flynn enough for what he had done for her mother.
Melanie pressed the bell and the opened almost immediately.
''Good evening, miss,'' a young lady greeted her.
''Hi,'' Melanie nodded her head and walked inside the house.
''Melanie!'' Her mother was running down the stairs.
''Mummy!'' Melanie screamed and rushed to hug her mother.
''My child,'' Melinda whispered as she stroked her daughter's hair.
''I've missed you very much,'' Melanie said to her mother when she broke the hug.
''I bet Flynn is taking care of you, you're looking very good,'' Melinda commented and Melanie blushed.
''Come and have a sit,'' Melinda said, pulling Melanie.

Camila was in her room when she heard a knock on the door and the door opened.
She glared at the maid that had barged in without her permission and hissed loudly.
''Your mother has arrived,'' the maid shivered.
''What!? My mum!?'' Camila stood up.
''Yes ma'am, and she requests for you.''
''You can go,'' Camila gritted her teeth.
Now that this hellish woman is here, Camila doubts if she will be at peace.
~
''What are you doing here?'' Camila asked as she walked towards her mum that was drinking water from the glass cup.
''That is not how I raised you. You should at least greet me properly, we haven't seen each other for two years,'' Camila's mother, Freya chuckled.
''What are you doing here, Mrs. Hayes?'' Camila asked again, maintaining a cold face.
''I found a match, come see his picture. He is very handsome, you need to see him,'' Freya smiled.
''So, all you could bring to me after two years is this? I am not interested in any man. I have a man I want to live the rest of my life with already, so please...''
''Really? Who is that man? Tell me, who?'' Freya stood up.
''Why should I tell you that?'' Camila shrugged her shoulder.
''You should tell me so that I'll help you to be with him as soon as possible,'' Freya winked at her.
''Flynn... Flynn Harlan,'' Camila let out.
''What!? That tycoon? I heard he is getting married!'' Freya yelled.
''That lady stole him from me and I must get Flynn back at all cost!'' Camila said through clenched teeth.
Freya raised a brow and smirked.
Her daughter wants Flynn, as a mother, she should help her daughter, right?
''You are a 'Hayes' and you must get whatever you want, Right?''
Freya sneered.
Camila creased her brow and stared at her mum, her mum was a badass bitch.
When playing games like this, Camila knew her mother was a boss.
''What do you want to do?'' Camila asked.
''I will help you get what belongs to you. As you know, I am Freya. Freya Hayes.''
''This is the last time I'll be accepting a favor from you, it doesn't change the fact that I loathe you,'' Camila rolled her eyes and Freya laughed loudly.
''You can hate me as much as you can, grumpy lady.''
''They are getting married on Saturday,'' Camila said.
''I know, let them get married. Let's give that, what do you think?'' Freya glanced at her daughter.
''Yes, just that,'' Camila smirked and stared at her mother who had an evil grin plastered across her cheek.

Melanie arrived at Flynn's mansion on Friday night and was shocked to see how the living room was decorated.
They were rose poured everywhere on the floor and music was being played to light the atmosphere.
''Welcome!'' Elle and Kyle screamed as soon as they sighted Melanie.
''I can't believe I've missed you so much,'' Elle smiled widely and wrapped her arm across Melanie.
''Why is everywhere like this?'' Melanie smiled softly.
''There are only a few hours before you officially become Mrs. Harlan. Gosh, I can't wait!'' Elle screamed.
''Same here. Elle, you will throw a party like this when I want to get married, right?'' Kyle grinned.
Elle smiled and stared at Kyle for a few seconds the suddenly looked serious.
''No,''
The smile on Kyle's face disappeared and Elle laughed.
''Where is Flynn?'' Melanie asked.
''He is upstairs, he arrived earlier. I can't believe tomorrow is his wedding, he didn't even smile. So boring...'' Elle rolled her eyes.
Melanie laughed and walked towards the stairs, leaving Elle and Kyle who began to dance.

Flynn walked towards the door when he heard a knock and opened it.
''Mel, wow... You knock today,'' he smiled nervously.
He had missed this little woman so much.
''I'm very nervous, honestly,'' Melanie played with the tip of her hair.
''Why? Because of tomorrow?'' Flynn chuckled.
''Yeah, it's fine. I wanted to let you know I've arrived. I'll be in my room,'' Melanie turned to leave but Flynn pulled her inside the room and locked the door.
''What is it?'' Melanie creased her brow.
''I have something to say to you,'' Flynn said nervously.
''What?''
''Look... I know I have done many bad things but I'll like to make it up to you,'' Flynn said.
''You can't make anything up to me, let go of me!'' Melanie pushed Flynn aside and walked towards the door.
''Listen, Melanie!'' Flynn grabbed her by her arm.
''Why exactly should I listen to you? I don't want to have anything to do with you!'' Melanie yelled at Flynn.
''Mela...''
''Don't call my name! You arrogant motherfvcking asshole!'' Melanie yelled.
''What?'' Flynn creased his brow in confusion.
''You killed my dad and brother! You are their murderer, asshole!'' Melanie screamed.
Flynn widened his eyes in shock.
How the hell did Melanie knew about it?
