"I've resigned."
Melody Lane spoke with a gentle smile.
Elara Don was taken aback, her smile fading.
"Why resign? Didn't I tell you that you could pretend to let Melody get close to you, with the aim to invite the enemy into your camp?"
Upon hearing this, Melody smiled and held Elara's hand.
"Charlotte, thank you for everything you've done for me. It's just that people must pay for their mistakes. Whenever I think about having betrayed you, my heart is restless working here."
"Moreover, Melody was played, and she surely won't let it go easily. I don't want to implicate the company."
This was a decision she had made long ago.
Although no one besides Charlotte knew what she had done, she didn't want to deceive herself.
Also, if she didn't resign, she was afraid Melody would keep an eye on her, eventually dragging up this old story.
Then she'd still lose face and wouldn't be able to stand in Scentia.
It's better to leave now.
"Alright, I respect your decision."
