Melody Thorne was still in shock as she looked at the man who had just dragged her in. She initially wanted to struggle, but when she saw Ellie Thorne outside, her mouth agape with disbelief and annoyance, she turned her body.
Her long and perfect legs wrapped around Jared Quinn's legs, and then, with a very indulgent expression on her face, she pressed against his chest, wrapping her arms around his waist.
"Ahh!" Sure enough, Ellie Thorne's hysterical scream echoed from outside.
"Ellie, calm down, calm down," Terence Thorne's face didn't look too good either, but he had seen enough of the world, and many people were watching in the hall.
"Dad," Ellie Thorne turned back, unwilling, her face still red from the handprint that hadn't faded away yet, especially since Melody Thorne had somehow managed to stay with Jared Quinn. Not only did he not throw her out, he even pulled her into the elevator with him!
