"I'll help you!"

It must have been his attitude towards the Carpenter Family, hitting her bottom line, that made this clever, cunning, and selfish woman want to retract her affection for him.

This realization made Adrian Desmond feel wronged and indignant. He had done and sacrificed so much for her, yet she still couldn't give him her heart completely.
"On my way back, I had someone investigate. If Melanie Carpenter is truly behind this..." He saw her stop chopping and look at him, waiting for her response.
"If it is Melanie Carpenter, I'll deal with her the same way!"
