Cameron and Suzanna watched the whole fight unfold from the VIP box upstairs, shocked by Melody's ruthless use of Adaptive Combat.
This type of combat is perfect for a petite fighter facing much larger opponents, allowing her to target vital points and take down enemies with swift, deadly moves.
Most people wouldn't dare to practice it. Having a sparring partner could end with both of them in trouble
-one ending up in jail and the other in the hospital or, worse, the morgue.
Over time, fewer and fewer people practiced Adaptive Combat, except for special forces. Without expert guidance, trying it solo was basically suicide.
So, was Melody mastering Adaptive Combat to this lethal level? She could have chosen anything to practice in a family like the Shields-why pick such a dangerous, deadly style? Did she have a grudge against the family?
The more Cameron thought about it, the more he felt a chill run down his spine. With his partnership with Gregoria's high ranks on the line and William injured, he'd have to step in and deal with the fallout.
He couldn't let Melody win this championship.
The International Underground Boxing Tournament had been hosted by Gregoria for years, and the championship had always belonged to them. With Melody's current momentum, it was likely that none of her future opponents would stand a chance against her So, he needed to find a way to persuade Melody to drop out of the competition.
"Well, what kind of twisted wind blew you in here today?" Melody narrowed her eyes at Cameron, clearly bored by his appearance. The Shields was like an annoying shadow, never leaving her alone.
She looked down at his knees, and for a second, she was tempted to break them, just like she had with Camel, leaving him unable to stand ever again.
But as her intense gaze shifted to Suzanna standing behind him, she held back.
If she broke Cameron's knees, it'd only be physical pain-and maybe some added resentment toward her.
But what if his legs were damaged because of Suzanna, the person he trusted and cared for the most? Which scenario would hit him harder?
Without a doubt, the latter would hit him harder. It also adds a layer of intrigue.
Melody waited quietly, letting Suzanna set the stage and start the act.
"Melody, do your really have to be so sarcastic with me? It's one thing for you to ignore me when I say I need your help with my legs, but now you're getting defensive just because I said a few words? Have the Shields taught you any manners during the four years you've been back there?"
Cameron frowned, his expression turning cold.
Standing behind him, Suzanna looked a bit uneasy but gently patted his shoulders, saying, "Cam, it's not

that Mel's against you. She's just more concerned about Spencer and Marin. After all, she's been closer to them for longer.
Suzanna's brief attempt at soothing words completely ignited Cameron's frustration toward Melody.
His expression darkened, his eyes cold and piercing, and his voice rough with barely contained anger. "Melody, enough with this nonsense! You've been living off the Shields for four years, and yet your brain seems to be getting emptier by the day. "Can't you even tell who's close and who's not anymore?"
Cameron slammed his hand down on the armrest of his wheelchair, exuding an exasperation that clearly showed his disappointment
Melody had no patience for this charade. She casually shoved him aside, wheelchair and all, without holding back.
In an instant, Cameron, along with his wheelchair, was sent tumbling to the ground by Melody.
He sprawled out on the floor, limbs flailing awkwardly With thousands of spectators watching in the boxing arena, Cameron, who was once a prominent figure in Sommerville, now found himself in humiliating position, lying helplessly on the ground. His pride and his dignity were crushed by Melody once again.
Melody had no interest in dragging this out. She'd already sent Spencer to the hospital with Nolan; right now, she cared about Spencer's legs far more than wasting time with Cameron.
Spencer left Sommerville feeling hurt and blaming himself, even after injuring his legs. But even after everything, he's always thinking of Melody and how she's been his rock.
When the misunderstanding was still in the way, he'd quietly kept an eye on her.
Once things were cleared up, he was practically glued to her side, her little teddy bear, addicted to her
Now he's like a big puppy with a whole lot of attitude, always clinging to her and refusing to let go of Melody's long legs, happily basking in her attention.
He must be feeling pretty low in the hospital right now.
Melody turned to leave the arena, knowing she'd secured her spot in the finals.
William and his five bodyguards are all on par with mid-tier tournament fighters.
Now that she's taken down their manager, the organizers have no choice but to put her in the main event -to see just how far her skills really go.
As Melody quickly strode away, a subordinate from Gregoria rushed over to Cameron. He helped Suzanna get Cameron back into his wheelchair. At the same time, the camera that had been capturing Cameron's humiliating moment on the ground suddenly cut to black. The sudden preferential treatment and special consideration halted Melody's long strides just as she was about to leave the arena.
