RedNovelChapter 379 Surprises Aren't Always Pleasant Melody was about to retort to Sierra, but her words were caught in her throat. She gave Theo a look of disbelief.
Grinning, Daniel and Simon also looked over in amusement and commented playfully, "You were worried that Sierra wouldn't say yes to your proposal. That's why you figured you'd seal the deal by getting the marriage certificate as soon as you could. Am I right?" "With the certificate in hand, Sierra no longer has a chance to regret the decision. So, you have a lot of tto plan out your proposal. If you ask me, doing it on the beach is quite romantic. Also..." They were clearly joking around, but Theo took their words seriously. He even turned around, asking her, "What is your ideal proposal location?" Sierra immediately blushed. She had just portrayed herself as a feisty young lady, but that demeanor was immediately gone. Instead, she went right back to being submissive and shy again.
The thing was, Melody had received a lot of news about Theo and Sierra, such as people accidentally bumping into them during their dates and how much he doted on her.
Back then, she was certain that Sierra had hired someone to leak this news on the intesince she was at loggerheads with Benson.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow, however, she could no longer find an excuse. The way Theo treated Sierra was genuinely different. Although he had the snonchalant expression, the love in his eyes was evident whenever he looked at Sierra. Also, he would've ignored Sierra's words if this had happened in the past, instead of admitting it quietly.
Sierra didn't pester Theo until he married her. Instead, he was the one who pleaded and sweet-talked her into becoming his wife. He didn't even have tto propose to her because he didn't want her to have a chance to regret the decision.
Melody knew very well that Theo detested lying. She was also aware that he would never say anything ambiguous just to preserve anyone's dignity.

"Melody, what's wrong?" Douglas noticed the unusual look on Melody's face and asked in a concerned tone, "Are you feeling unwell? Should I get you a doctor?" Yvette cast a scornful gaze at him and said squarely, "My dear simp, isn't it obvious? She's reeling from an overwhelming jealousy." She even scoffed at the end of her sentence.
Melody accepted the glass of water Douglas handed her. Lowering her head, she took a sip. Jealousy flashed in her eyes, and her mind was filled with a thousand questions.

"Yvette, knock it off," Douglas warned, raising his voice.
Looking at Simon, Yvette scoffed. "Honey, he's so mean to me. He actually raised his voice atfor Melody's sake." Simon brushed off Daniel's hand, which was resting on his shoulder, and walked over to her side. He pulled her into his arms and comforted her gently.
"Douglas has never been right in the head ever since he was a boy. It's normal for him to say nonsensical crap from tto time. Just ignore him." Yvette leaned against Simon's chest, acting sweetly and being clingy as if they were alone. From tto time, she would also give Douglas a triumphant look.

Needless to say, he noticed it. A hint of amusement flashed in his eyes, and he took a step forward. Standing behind her, he reached out and held her hand along with the fishing rod.
"Geez, Theo. We're still here. Don't you think it's a little bit too much to be this lovey-dovey in front of us?" Daniel looked excited as he stared at their intertwined hands. Theo was being teased, but he was
