Transmigrated as The Best Female Character of the Year

Lana Sheffield held the card, a wave of secret delight washing over her.

Her father had tried to apply for this card several times but was always rejected. Apparently, he didn’t meet some qualification or other. She never imagined Christopher Sterling would have one.

And now, he had given it to her!

’Everyone thought she lost out by giving up the Rockwell Family to choose Christopher Sterling. But in reality, she’d come out ahead, hadn’t she?’

From the moment Christopher Sterling resolved the Sheffield Family’s crisis and even dealt Evan Fairchild a defeat, she knew her husband was formidable. This became even clearer during her time living at the Sheffield residence.

She would often hear Mason Sheffield scolding Jude Sheffield: ”Learn from your brother-in-law! If you had even a tenth of his skill, I wouldn’t have to worry like this.”

Every time she heard those words, Lana Sheffield would be secretly overjoyed.

...

Melody Monroe was having dinner with Shaun Owen and a few others when her phone suddenly rang.

Seeing it was Rose Shaw’s number, she immediately got up and found a quiet place to answer.

”Rose.”

”Melody, President Sterling and Mrs. Sterling are also coming to my engagement party next week. I wanted to say, if you don’t want to come, you don’t have to.”

Melody thought of Felix Hughes’s invitation. It wouldn’t be right if she didn’t go.

”What’s the big deal? Of course I’m going! It’s the happy occasion of your engagement. Don’t worry. With President Sterling there, she’ll rein it in a bit.”

”But...”

”No buts. You just focus on getting ready. You have to be absolutely beautiful.”

”Okay.” Rose Shaw nodded. ”Melody, you’re the one who gave me the courage to choose a different path. You’re the person I want there most.”

”To be honest, I’m also quite surprised you let President Sterling know about your engagement.”

”I just... don’t want to leave myself with any lingering attachments.”

Melody nodded. She knew that Christopher Sterling had been a benefactor to Rose Shaw.

”I won’t keep you. Let’s talk again if anything comes up.”

”Okay, bye.” Melody hung up the phone and sighed softly.

’I hope Rose and Felix Hughes’s engagement goes smoothly.’

When Melody walked back over, Keith Coleman immediately asked, ”Who called?”

”Rose.”

Keith Coleman froze for a moment, then poured himself a glass of wine without a word.

Melody watched Keith’s reaction, a little unsure. ’Does Keith actually like Rose? Or is it just a physical impulse?’

”Is Rose Shaw in such a hurry to get married?” Keith Coleman asked suddenly. ”Life is so short. Isn’t it better to just live for the moment?”

Melody didn’t respond.

’Everyone lives their life differently. You have no right to question how other people choose to live.’

”But then again, life is also so long. Who can guarantee they’ll spend their entire life with any one person?” Keith asked again.

But no one at the table answered his question.

”There are too many unknowns in life. Making a promise for a lifetime... isn’t that just idiotic?”

”No, it’s not.” Melody shook her head.

’In any case, she could never fall in love with any man other than Evan Fairchild in this lifetime.’

’No matter how things ended up between them, she would do her absolute best to fight for it, even if she could never win the Fairchild Family’s acceptance.’

’As long as Evan Fairchild didn’t divorce her, they would spend their lives together!’

Keith Coleman was left speechless.

’What is this person, high on love, chiming in for?’

”Fine, you won’t talk! What about the rest of you? Answer my question.”

”If I loved a girl, I would want to spend my whole life with her.”

”That’s right! Me too. Even if the love eventually loses its original spark, you still have that mutual devotion. You’re still the closest partners in the world.”
