Chapter 1405:
“Is that the only way?” Melvin asked, feeling something sharp twist in his chest—an ache he couldn't put into
words. It was like a jagged blade had sliced right through him and stayed there.
“You don’t have to do it—if you want to be with me,” Jessica said, her gaze fixed and unwavering. “Otherwise,
please block my contacts.”
She couldn't bring herself to block him. No matter how furious she was, she just couldn't do it.
Melvin pressed his lips together, hesitating for a long moment. Then, he finally said, “Got it.”

Jessica’s phone pinged with a quick reply: “Mel.” Her brow furrowed in confusion.
Mel, as in Melvin?
Her eyes darted to the door, a reflex, before she typed back, “What's up?”

Meanwhile, Melvin lounged on his couch, staring at her message, his mind a jumble. He wanted to chat, to
connect, but words escaped him. Why had he even reached out if he was just going to freeze now?
Jessica, growing impatient, sent another message. “Hey, you there?”
Melvin’s thoughts raced, but he replied, “Just hoping we could be friends. Can | have that chance?”
