Melody Monroe nodded. "Yes, I grew up in an orphanage."
Rose Shaw's heart sank!
'Melody isn't my sister?'
'She remembers things from before she was five, but my sister was over five when Mom took her and left, and we lost all contact after that!'
Melody Monroe looked at Rose Shaw. She knew Rose must be feeling terrible.
'In the original novel, Rose Shaw's relationship with the original protagonist was purely professional. Even though she suspected they were sisters, Rose never interfered with the protagonist's antics. She kept the matter buried in her heart and never planned to acknowledge her.'
'For Rose Shaw to suddenly ask me this question today... could it be that she wants to acknowledge me as her sister?'
Although Melody Monroe deeply wished she was Rose Shaw's sister, she still decided to let Rose know the truth.
