Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 385: All these years, you have never looked for Mommy?
Melody heard that Lisa was locked up in the dungeon, and her cold, unfocused eyes squinted slightly.
"Melody, your eyes?" Muir looked at Melody’s eyes, asking with heartache.
Melody said calmly, "I got a little injured before, temporary blindness, Tannis said he could cure it."
Upon hearing this, Muir immediately looked at Tannis, "Tannis, can you really cure my child’s eyes?"
It’s not that Muir didn’t trust Tannis’s medical skills; it’s just that someone with an eye injury is too important to him, not tolerating any slightest mistake.
Tannis nodded, "I can cure it, just need to get my medical kit and perform a minor surgery for Her Highness the Princess."
"What are we waiting for, go get it quickly!"
Saying this, Muir looked at Melody, comforting warmly, "My child, don’t be afraid, it’s just a small surgery. Moreover, Tannis is very skilled; your eyes will surely be able to see."
No matter if Melody recognizes him or not, she is his and Amanda’s child, his biological daughter, Princess Butterfly.
Melody nodded, "Mm, thank you, I’m not afraid."
Tannis took back his medical kit and, along with Melody and the others, went to the medical room inside the palace.
It was here that Tannis treated Melody’s eyes.
During Melody’s surgery, Adrian was there the entire time.
Of course, Muir was also by her side.
Just as the anesthesia hadn’t worn off yet, Muir approached Melody, placing his hand on her shoulder.
Noticing Muir’s movement, Adrian immediately blocked him, with a cold face, he asked Muir, "King, what do you intend to do?"
Muir looked at Adrian—this young man who wasn’t Melody’s destiny, yet he had heard from Tannis that he was very impressive and loved Melody deeply.
Indeed, he was quite decent and a fitting match for his daughter.
As long as he truly loved Melody, and Melody loved him, then the matter of destiny could be set aside.
But if Melody didn’t marry her destined partner, then what about the next generation’s Butterfly successor?
However, at this moment, Muir didn’t plan to talk about these things.
Priority was to restore Melody’s vision.
For Muir, the most important thing now was Melody’s life.
He looked at Melody lying on the hospital bed, speaking frankly, "I want to see the mark on my child."
Adrian, blocking Muir, didn’t move, coldly refusing, "Melody hasn’t recognized you yet, can’t you see that? Besides, is that replicable mark really that important?"
"The Butterfly mark is unique, no one can imitate it," Muir said calmly, not getting angry at Adrian’s refusal.
He looked at Adrian and explained, "I’m very certain that Melody is the child of Amanda and me, but I also hope you can understand my feelings, she is my child."
Adrian didn’t say anything but was moved by Muir’s words.
He stepped aside, carefully lifting Melody’s clothing to reveal the Butterfly mark on her shoulder.
She is his woman; it should be by his touch only.
Seeing the unique mark on Melody’s shoulder, identical to the male and female butterflies on his chest, tears once again flowed uncontrollably from Muir’s eyes, "She is the daughter of Amanda and I, truly the Butterfly Princess of Whitehill, the destined successor!"
In this way, he wouldn’t be ashamed to face the entire Whitehill, nor would his actions bring disaster to Whitehill.
Adrian immediately pulled Melody’s clothes back up, looking disdainfully at the King, "Why are you crying? Melody is just fine. If you keep this up, you’ll end up waking her with your tears."
Muir immediately held back his voice, silently shedding tears, looking at Melody on the hospital bed with reluctance.
The next day, Melody had the bandages removed by Tannis.
She slowly opened her eyes and immediately saw Muir watching over her by the bedside.
He wore a plain white robe, his expression poignant and worn, looking much older than she had imagined.
This was her biological father, the man her mother loved all her life.
It seemed that in all these years without her mother’s company, he had pined for her so much that his condition had seriously declined.
Seeing Melody awake, Muir immediately spoke with excitement, "Melody, you’re awake? You can see now, right? Is there any discomfort?"
Melody could see, she could see clearly.
She looked at Muir, nodding, "Mm, I can see."
"That’s wonderful, it’s good that you can see," Muir spoke with excitement.
Simon led people to arrest all of Lisa’s followers.
The internal strife in Whitehill had thus been quelled.
After regaining her sight, Melody stood on the castle wall of the palace, observing everything here.
Muir stood behind her, "Child, your return this time is truly wonderful. Tomorrow I’ll announce the true identity of the Butterfly Princess and appoint you as the Crown Prince."
Melody slowly turned around, looking at the weathered old man in front of her, "There’s no need, I don’t want to be any Crown Prince."
Upon hearing her words, Muir began to tremble all over with worry, "Melody, do you hate me for failing to take care of your mother?"
Melody gazed at the white clouds in the sky, "Yes, I do hate you. Your weakness led to my mother’s entire family’s demise, cast her into exile, and led to her unexplained death."
"However, I know it’s not your fault, disputes are inevitable in a royal family, but why didn’t you search for my mother all these years? And yet allowed Lisa to continue her excesses, having three children with her after my mother’s departure!" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Tears rolled uncontrollably down Melody’s face, though she sympathized with Muir, it didn’t mean she would absolve him of responsibility.
Muir listened to Melody’s words, a fire burning in his heart, "Melody, it was my fault, my wrongdoing towards your mother. At that time, when I was the Crown Prince, your mother suddenly disappeared, I didn’t expect Lisa to do all this. A year later, feeling suffocating heartache, I knew that destiny might have ended, but I didn’t want to accept this reality... I fantasized that your mother was still alive because of my family’s mission, I needed to ascend the throne, and at that time, Lisa’s scheme saved me from poisoning, leading to my subsequent marriage with her..."
"Child, I was wrong, truly wrong, I know you can’t forgive me, but you’re Amanda’s daughter. If your mother were here, she’d want you to take on the responsibility of the next generation’s Crown Prince... Please don’t leave, can you?"
More tears flowed from Muir’s eyes, Melody quietly watched him without saying a word.
Muir lowered his head and slowly turned to leave, taking a few steps before stumbling and falling to the ground.
Melody immediately went to support him, "King... King, what’s happening to you?"
"Melody, I’m sorry, please don’t leave... Stay and let me atone... I’m sorry." Muir tightly grasped her hand.
