It wasn't the first time Mrs. Quinn had set Melody Thorne up. From the first time Titus knew about it, he hesitated to expose her, allowing the matter to end inconclusively.
This indulgence, however, only made her actions more aggressive.
"Oh, by the way, Titus Quinn has leverage over Mrs. Quinn because of her past relationship with that person, which is why he's threatening her. That commander being comatose for years is also because of Mrs. Quinn!"
Melody Thorne explained.
Jared Quinn was unmoved.
"What do you plan to do?" Melody Thorne tugged at his suit, "If you plan to make me the scapegoat, I absolutely refuse. This matter isn't my fault, and I'm being terribly vilified by everyone now."
Jared Quinn turned around. Any slight harm to Melody would pain him, let alone making her take the fall.
"I will take care of this matter."
