Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker (Chapters 86, 87, 88, 89 & 90)      

Chapter 86

Claude’s hospital was located in Insterimond. If they took a plane back now, reaching Silverlake would take them at least) three hours. They could not waste time here,

Astrid nodded repeatedly and said, “Yes, we have to go back quickly, immediately!”

For the past few days, she had thought she would receive the good news of Margaret’s death. She did not expect to receive the bad news of Margaret’s recovery.

She felt a splitting headache when she thought about how she would have to live with Margaret in the future

What do we do?” On the plane, Astrid’s body was trembling as she asked. Even when the air stewardess reminded her to fasten her seatbelt, she was still in a daze. It was not until the air stewardess repeated it that she heard what the other party said.

“We didn’t care about Margaret’s life and death these few days. Now that she’s recovered, she’ll blame you and me. What if she tells your father something bad about you?” Astrid asked.

Ulric did not answer, but he frowned.

However, he wasn’t worried about Margaret’s attitude. Margaret had always been indifferent to him. He had never expected Margaret to say anything good about him in front of Ramon.

But according to Margaret’s personality, she wouldn’t say anything bad about him in front of Ramon

He was only flustered about his father’s attitude toward Ken.

Since the young lady of the Fox family had cured Margaret, and that ugly woman was in cahoots with Ken, I’m obviously at a disadvantage when it comes to Margaret. No wonder! No wonder Ken has no intention of leaving when he comes to Silverlake this time. He would never stay for long in the past. Kee must have returned to be the Swanson family’s successor Thinking of this, Ulric could not help but grind his molars

His cold expression shocked the air stewardess passing by. She asked in fear, “Mr. Swanson, did our crew do anything wrong?”

Ulric suddenly came back to his senses and revealed his usual gentle smile. “No, you guys did well. It’s just that I’m not feeling well. Thank you.”

The air stewardess heaved a sigh of relief and quickly nodded. Tsee. No wonder you look so pale. If you need anything, please press the service bell, and I’ll come over.”

“Okay, thank you” Ulric’s lips curled into a smile. The air stewardess completely forgot about Ulric’s terrifying expression just now and only felt her face turn red and her heart beat faster.

She heard that Ulric’s legs were crippled by his brother. She felt sorry and pity as she sighed.
The air stewardess left with mixed feelings This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

As soon as she left, the smile on Ulric’s face disappeared.

He turned to Astrid and said coldly, “We don’t have much time or opportunity left. We have to find an acupuncture doctor who can treat my leg immediately. Otherwise, we’ll be chased out of the Swanson family by Ken! Don’t forget that Ken is still investigating what you did to Ken’s mother back then. Once he finds out…”

When Astrid heard this, she couldn’t help but shiver.

Her lips were pale as she nodded. “Okay, I will find someone to treat your legs quickly!” For the rest of the journey, the mother and son were silent.

After they got off the plane, they rushed back in a panic. However, Astrid panic was shown on her face, while Ulric’s panic was hidden deep in his heart and did not show on his face.

It sounded ridiculous, but disguising had become what he was best at during the years he was disabled.

At the same time, in the Swanson family

Ken and his father got out of the car together. The three pickup trucks behind them were filled with gifts.

Til go and see if Grandma is done.” Ken was in a good mood today, and it was rare for him to take the initiative to report to Ramon

Ramon was also in a good mood.

As soon as Margaret recovered from her illness, the black fog enveloped the Swanson family instantly dissipated.

“Alright, go ahead. Tell her not to rush. Her body has just recovered. She has to take her time. Ramon instructed.

“Okay” Ken nodded

Just as he was about to enter

ter the villa, Ramon stopped him again. “Wait a minute.”

Ken turned his head in confusion, only to see Ramon walking to him. Ramon said in a low voice. There was a financial problem with the branch company in Laranshire today. After sealing the matters here, I need to go there. I’ll stay for at least

en days to half a month!

Ken didn’t say anything, waiting for Ramon to continue.

Ramon paused before saying, “You’re free during this period. Help me take care of the company in Silverlake.*

Hearing this. Ken’s usually unchanged expression revealed a rare surprise.

Although Ramon had handed over the company in Insterimond to him, he had never interfered with the headquarters in Silverlake.

Of course, even Ulric couldn’t infiltrate the headquarters. Ramon had always been in charge of everything at the headquarters here.

w what Ramon meant by that.

Ken didn’t know

Does he want me to be his successor? Ken wondered.

Honestly, he did not care about the position of the Swanson family’s heir. However, if he could enter the headquarters and have the right to speak, he could take back the Pearly Antiques that his mother had left behind without much effort. He did not need to go through so much trouble.

Ken knew Ramon’s sudden decision had much to do with his efforts to recommend Melody for treating Margaret

“It seems that… the gifts I bought for Melody are not enough, Ken thought.

Ken glanced at the gifts on the three pickup trucks and decided to give Melody something else.

“What do you think? Seeing that Ken didn’t say anything, Ramon asked in confusion, “You’re unwilling?”

Ken came back to his senses and shook his head. “Since you’re going to Laranshire to work, I’ll help you take care of the company in Silverlake.”

Ken had never been good at saying something to please others. Eamon knew his son well. He laughed and patted Ken’s shoulder. “Do your best! Alright, go and fetch your grandma!”

“Okay” Ken nodded and walked upstairs

To make her gratitude look more sincere, Margaret took a shower and even asked her private maid to dress her up

When Ken went upstairs and saw Margaret, he felt that she seemed to have become ten years younger. She was full of energy and did not look sick at all.

“Grandma. Ken’s cold expression only softened when he saw Margaret,

“You’re back? Have you bought all the gifts? Have you chosen the gifts properly?” Margaret asked.

Ken nodded. “I’ve chosen them all. I’ve carefully chosen every one of them.”

Only then did Margaret feel relieved. She pointed at her clothes and asked, “How do I look in this dress? Do I look too young?”

“No.” Ken smiled and said, “You’re very suitable for this kind of clothes. You should wear them more in the future.”

“Really? You’re not lying to me?” Margaret asked again to confirm like a little girl.

It was not until the maids and Ken said it looked good that she relaxed and said. “Alright, that’s it. Let’s go. Let’s go to the Fox family and give thanks to Melody!”

Chapter 87

As Margaret spoke, she walked out without needing anyone to support her.

Ken was shocked and quickly went up to support her.

Although Margaret had recovered from her illness, she was eighty after all. How could she walk so quickly?

Margaret shook her head. “You worry about people more than I do! When you have a wife and children in the future, you’ll have more things to worry about!”

Ken smiled. “Don’t worry, Grandma. I don’t have to worry about that for the time being

He had no intention of getting married and having children at the moment. Pearly Antiques, his grandmother, and his career were the most important to him.

Margaret was displeased when she heard Ken’s words,

“What do you mean you don’t have to worry? I’m already so old but haven’t had a great–grandchild yet. Even if I’m better, I have nothing to do” Margaret paused and said even more forcefully. “Let me tell you, you have to get married as soon as possible. Arleast let me carry my great–grandchild before I die!”

Ken smiled bitterly. ‘Grandma, even if I want you to have a great–grandson, I don’t have the ability. I don’t even have a girlfriend. Where can I get you a great–grandchild?”

As soon as he said this, Margaret suddenly remembered what Maria had discussed with her on her birthday.

Margaret rolled her eyes and asked, “Ken, what do you think of Melody?”

Ken’s eyelids twitched. He frowned and asked, “Grandma, what do you want?”

Margaret raised her eyebrows and said, “I think that child is great. We can’t judge other people by appearance, especially when looking for a wife. Her character is the most important. After interacting with her for the past few days, I think Melody’s character is good. She’s not arrogant or rash. Although she has such a face, she never feels inferior because of her appearance, which shows she’s pretty strong inside. It is something many socialites born and bred in Silverlake can’t compare to.”

Ken nodded subconsciously because he agreed with Margaret.

However, Ken realized Margaret’s intention immediately. He shook his head and said, “Grandma, you don’t have to worry about those things. I don’t plan to get married now. I have important things to do.”

“This is important to me tool Margaret suddenly raised her voice, but then she realized that her attitude was too unyielding She sighed and said, “Forget it, take it slow. You two have indeed only spent little time together.

Margaret thought that she was very good at judging people. She thought Melody was a good child. She was sure she wouldn’t be wrong.

Moreover, the Fox family had indeed made an engagement agreement with the Swarison family, and Astrid would not like Melody, so the best candidate in Margaret’s heart had always been Ken.

Soon, the two of them arrived downstairs.

Initially, Ramon didn’t plan to go with them, but when he saw Margaret dressed up, he knew that she paid a lot of attention to paying a visit to express her gratitude to Melody. Hence, he postponed his work and boarded the car to the Fox family with Ken and Margaret. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
It took more than 40 minutes of driving from the Fox family’s residence to the Swanson family’s. Margaret kept urging the

Chapter 87

driver to speed up. When

embarrassedly. “I don’t know were finally about to reach the Fox family’s house, Margaret rubbed her hands and said

embarrassedly. “I don’t know why, but I feel like I’m meeting my first love.”

This meant that Margaret liked Melody very much.

A gentle smile appeared on Ken’s face. Seeing his grandmother like this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief. He knew he could start working on Pearly Antiques now.

At the thought of Pearly Antiques, Ken’s expression returned to its usual coldness.

He could tolerate everything, be it framing, slandering, or anything about inheriting. But he would never give in when it came to Pearly Antiques, which his mother left behind.

The car stopped at the entrance of the Fox family’s row house.

Margaret quickly left the car and saw a maid cleaning at the door. She smiled and walked forward to greet her. “Hello, are Mr. Fox and Melody at home? I’m Margaret Swanson.

The maid cleaning at the door immediately looked like she had seen a ghost when she heard the other party’s name and ran

FL

Margaret looked at the maid running away. Her hand that was greeting her stopped awkwardly in mid–air for two seconds, Two seconds later, she glared at Ken with a dark expression.

It’s all Ken’s fault for saying I looked good in this dress. Look what happened now! The maid was startled. I knew this damin child was lying to me! However, it’s too late to change now. It’ll take another two hours to go back and change again. I can only enter like this: At the thought of this, Margaret said unhappily. “It’s all your fault!”

Ken looked innocent and confused. ‘What did I do?

In the living room of the Fox family.

When the maid rushed in, Russell and Yolanda were about to go out to inquire about Margaret.

When Yolanda saw the maid enter in a panic, she subconsciously frowned and reprimanded, “Why are you in such a hurry? It’s not like the house is on fire!

Yolanda was about to reprimand her, but Russel felt something was wrong.

Usually , Yolanda was very strict with the maids. The maid wouldn’t have been so flustered if something hadn’t happened.
At the thought, a sense of foreboding surged in Russell’s heart. He hurriedly asked, “What happened? Did someone from the Swanson family come?”

The maid was frightened by Yolanda’s scolding just now. Now that she heard Russell ask her, she remembered the serious matter and nodded uneasily. “Yes, people from the Swanson family have come… Many people have come. I saw three or four cars…

When Yolanda heard this, her vision darkened.

“Oh, no… We’re doomed…” she muttered in a daze. Then, she slumped onto the sofa. Her legs were weak, and she could not stand up no matter what.

Russell was slightly calmer. However, it was because he tried his best to maintain his composure. He ordered the maid to bring Maria over immediately.

“But..” The maid hesitated and said, “Mrs. Maria is so sick that she can’t get out of bed. Do you still want her to come over?

Chapter 87

Russell was filial. But his filial piety was not as important as his interests.

Seeing that the Swanson family was here to avenge Margaret, if he did not bring Maria out now, he would be courting death.

“Co quickly Russell gritted his teeth and ordered.

The maid had no choice but to run to look for Maria.

Maria’s condition had only improved slightly after that day. Then, it began to deteriorate again. Now, she was back to the state when she was sleeping most of the time and only awake for a while.

Coincidentally, Maria was awake at that time. When she heard the maid’s words, she sat up without saying a word and said, “Bring the wheelchair over.”

Maria’s private maid, Hattie, stopped that maid and said worriedly. “Mrs. Maria, your health is so poor. I don’t think you should go out.”

However, Maria was very insistent. “How can I not go out after the trouble I caused?”

Hattie could not help but feel dissatisfied with Melody. She muttered, “How is this your fault? It is Miss Melody’s fault We wouldn’t have had to be afraid if she hadn’t volunteered to treat Mrs. Margaret back then.”

Over the past few days, Hattie had been influenced by Yolanda’s people and hated Melody.

Chapter 88

Hattie even thought it would be great if Melody stayed in the countryside and never came to Silverlake

In that case, the Fox family would not have faced such a crisis, and Maria would not have been sicker than before.

As Hatte spoke, she started to cry from anger. “It’s all Miss Melody’s fault.”

“Enough” Maria interrupted Hattie unhappily. “Don’t blame Melody. She’s just a child. If it weren’t for me, she wouldn’t have been given a chance to treat Margaret’s illness. So, it’s all because of me. It has nothing to do with her. She instructed. “Don’t call Melody out for the Swanson family’s visit.”

She said so because she wanted to protect Melody.

Hattie felt even worse. What time is it now? The Swanson family has already come to demand an explanation. Why are you still defending Miss Melody?”

“Hattie! Enough“” Maria’s tone was serious.

She rarely spoke to Hattie like this. Hattie was shocked and did not dare to say anything else.

In any case, it had already happened, and there was no turning back.

Of course, Hattie did not want to say anything more. She did not want to tell Maria that Melody had not been reflecting in her mom for the past few days but had been locked in the garage

When she first heard the news, she hesitated whether to tell Maria, but her emotions got the better of reason. She had been hiding it from Maria until now.

When Maria arrived at the living room in her wheelchair, the doorbell rang

Yolanda was so frightened that her face turned pale and her lips trembled. She even told the maids not to open the door.

Maria sighed and instructed the butler, “Go and open the door. What will come will come. Just do as we said. Just push all the responsibility to me.”

The butler looked at Russell hesitantly.

Russell closed his eyes and did not look at Maria. He only said, “Co and open the door.”

He tacitly approved of Maria’s plan.

When Maria saw this, her heart could not help but ache. She could not help but sigh inwardly.

Her son was good in all aspects, but she had never liked his selfish values.

However, at this point, now that she was already so old, she thought it was worth saving the Fox family with her own life.

Seeing this, the butler could only open the door with trembling legs.

He was afraid that he would be implicated, too.

As soon as the door opened, a tall man entered first This belongs © NôvelDrama.Org.

It was Ken

One could feel his powerful aura even without looking at his face.

Chapter 88

The butler’s legs almost went weak and he fell to the ground. Fortunately, he held onto the shoe cabinet at the entrance to steady himself.

Russell paid no attention to the butler. He only saw Ramon following behind Ken.

Mr. Ramon has even come personally! It seems that Margaret has already passed away… Russell thought worriedly

Russell pinched his thigh hard and ined his best to remain calm.

“Mr. Ramon, Mr. Ken, welcome “He greeted them with a hoarse voice.

“Mr. Fox, Ramon nodded slightly.

Just as he was about to speak. Russell hurriedly said, “Mr. Ramon, it’s all our fault. It’s all Melody’s fault. She just returned from the countryside and didn’t know the severity of the situation. She boasted that she wanted to treat Margaret. And now.. she’s caused such a big trouble. She’s muddle–headed! But don’t worry. I’ve already locked her up. I haven’t given her anything to eat for three to four days. I’ve let her reflect on herself. This can be considered an explanation for you.”

When Ramon heard this, his face was filled with disbelief. “You you…

He could not utter a word after saying “you” for a long time because it was too unexpected

When Russell saw Ramon’s reaction, he thought Ramon wasn’t satisfied enough, so he hurriedly added, “If you still think it’s not enough. I’ll bring her out now and beat her up in front of you. If you still can’t vent your anger, take her away and punish her however you want. We definitely won’t blame you!”

Ramon widened his eyes. “Russell you. You’re too…

He searched for a long time but could not find a suitable adjective.

As for Ken, he even felt that there was something wrong with his ears.

Maria

was the first to react. She stood up p with both hands on the wheelchair and asked, “How many days did you say you’ve made Melody hungry?”
Russell frowned and looked at Maria. “Mom, I’ll be frank with you since things have come to this! I didn’t lock her in the room for the past few days. Instead, I locked her in Wilona’s mortuary, However, she brought this on herself. She’s already an adult. When an adult makes a mistake, they have to pay the price. This is the price she deserves!”

“You you… How could you do this? She’s your biological daughter! Maria said sternly, but because of her poor health, she started to cough violently after cursing.

Russell ignored Maria. At this moment, he couldn’t be bothered with her either. He turned around and said to Ramon, “Mr. Ramon, you’ve seen our family’s sincerity. Please don’t implicate our entire family because of Melody!”

Yolanda finally regained a trace of calmness from her extreme panic. She stepped forward and bowed to Ramon…

“Mr. Ramon, it’s all Melody’s fault. It was Melody who caused Mrs. Margaret to die. It has nothing to do with us! Please be lenient and let the rest of our family off!” As soon as Yolanda finished speaking, someone suddenly entered the room.

Yolanda and Russell subconsciously looked out. They thought it was Astrid. However, they didn’t expect it to be Margaret.

Before she entered, Margaret felt that this dress was too colorful Therefore, she returned to the car and changed into plain clothes with her private maid,

When she heard this at the door, she stopped and widened her eyes in disbelief.

Yolanda and Russell were more shocked than her. Yolanda was stunned for two seconds. Then, she suddenly screamed and hugged Russell’s leg. “Oh! Ghost! A ghost!”

She thought Margaret had become a ghost after her death and was here to settle scores with them!

Margaret’s expression darkened and she looked gloomy

After a long time, she squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth. “Who… Who are you calling a ghost

“Mom Ramon hurriedly went forward to support Margaret. He glared at Yolanda with a dark expression and scolded angrily. “What nonsense are you talking about? My mother is fine. Who are you calling a ghost?”

Ramon’s angry rebuke snapped Yolanda and Russell back to their senses synchronously, but they looked even more shocked

than before.

What’s going on? The two of them looked at each other, their minds filled with countless question marks. Wasn’t it because Margaret was dead because of Melody’s treatment that the Swanson family came to demand an explanation? Why did Ramon say that Margaret wasn’t a ghost?”

Russell, who was highly educated, quickly realized that Margaret was not a ghost. She was not dead.

Not only was she not dead, but she was also standing here and coming to their house nimbly.

But what is going on? Russell was confused.

Chapter 89

This, this… Yolanda was speechless for a long time.

Russell was smarter. He quickly smiled and said, “Surprisingly, Mrs. Margaret has recovered. This is a happy event! What a happy event Mrs. Margaret, congratulations!”

As Russell spoke, he added. “Previously, my countryside daughter was insensible and insisted on treating you. She almost harmed you. Fortunately, you found a famous doctor who saved you. I’m happy for you! Don’t worry. I’ll help you get an explanation for this matter. Well, the truth is, I’ve already helped you deal with it. Not only did I lock that child up. but Ive also crossed her off the family tree. She has nothing to do with me now. If you want to take her away to punish her, I have no rejection!”

The comers of Margaret’s mouth twitched. She couldn’t help but say, “Russell, I remember that you weren’t a fool in the past. Why are you so muddle–headed now?”

Russell was stunned. He did not understand what Margaret meant.

However, he vaguely felt something was wrong, but he could not figure out what was wrong, so he asked directly, “Mrs. Margaret, what do you mean?”

“What do I mean: Hmph!” Margaret snorted coldly and said. “You’re asking me what I mean, but I want to ask you the same question. You locked up the person who saved my life?”

Russell’s mind instantly went blank.

“The person who saved your life?” Russell didn’t even know how he said those words.

The ominous feeling he had just now overlapped with Margarets words, forming a sentence. It was Melody who cured Margaret‘

But how is that possible? Russell’s expression changed again and again. Even though he was extremely good at changing his expression, he did not know what expression to show at that moment…

When Yolanda heard Margaret’s words, her expression was even darker than when she thought she had seen a ghost, thinking. ‘Melody has become the person who saved Margaret’s life! This is like seeing a ghost! I can’t believe that country bumpkin knows medicine. Not only did she know medicine, but she also cured Margaret! What should I do? What should I do now?”

She had offended everyone she shouldn’t have. She was the one who often said the Fox family was going to suffer because of Melody. Now, she was also the one who said that Margaret was a ghost. She had fallen into a situation where she appeared to be a person of poor character.

Yolanda was at a loss and could only ask Russell for help. “Russell. L

“Shut up!” Russell was frustrated and regretful. He remembered that it was Yolanda who cried and
said that Melody would ruin the Fox family. That was why he was in such an awkward situation now. He reached out and slapped Yolanda hard.
A crisp sound of a slap rang out, and Yolanda was slapped so hard that she turned her face away.

Russell quickly composed himself. Just as he was about to speak. Ken, who had been silent all this while, spoke first. He spat out three words coldly, “Where is she?”

Russell said awkwardly. “She, she’s in… the garage…”

“Where’s the garage?” Ken asked.

“I’ll bring you there!” Hattie hurriedly went forward and took the initiative to lead the way.

At this moment, she finally understood that Melody was not overestimating herself, but she did have the ability.

Melody had cured Margaret!

Hattie and Ken rushed to the backyard,

At this moment, Maria had also stopped coughing. Two drops of tears flowed from her turbid eyes

Although she was coughing just now, she had heard what Margaret said.

She did not trust the wrong person! Nor did she defend the wrong person!

The only mistake was that she believed Russell’s words and thought that Melody was reflecting in her room.

Russell stood rooted to the ground. He couldn’t follow Ken to pick up Melody or keep standing rooted to the ground in a dare. He only apologized with a smile, “Mom, Mr. Ramon, Im sorry. The last time Mrs. Swanson came, I thought Mrs. Margaret’s condition worsened because of my daughter, so this misunderstanding happened…”

Russell tried his best to explain, but after what he had said just now, Ramon finally understood what kind of person Russell

was.

When Melody got into trouble, Russell addressed her as a child from the countryside, but when Melody was of use to him, he addressed her as ‘my daughter.”

He was such an extreme egoist.

Ramon admitted he was selfish too, but he was better compared to Russell

Ramon suppressed his disgust for Russell and said in a low voice “Since it’s a misunderstanding, forget it. Don’t punish the child indiscriminately in the future.”

After all, Russell’s daughter had cured Margaret. Even if it was for Melody’s sake, he could not blame Russell too much

“Okay, okay. I was wrong this time.” Russell nodded repeatedly.

However, Margaret was extremely displeased. She held Maria’s trembling hands and turned to look at Russell. “You’d better pray that Melody is fine. Otherwise, I don’t care if you’re Melody’s biological father!”

Russell’s face stiffened and he smiled awkwardly.

Now, he was happy that he did not whip Melody. It’s just a few days of imprisonment. She should be fine.

At the same time, in the backyard.

Ken followed Hattie to an abandoned garage.

There were no windows in the garage. When the door was opened, an unpleasant musty smell came from inside.

He could not help but frown.

For the past four days, he had thought Melody was too lazy to come over and was a little dissatisfied. He did not expect her to suffer like this at home these few days.

Guilt could not help but spread throughout his body.

The garage was very dark. Although he had already walked in, he could not find anyone after searching for a long time because it was too dark inside.

“Melody?” He called out to her, but there was no answer.

Ken instantly had a bad premonition

He quickly turned around and instructed Hattie, “Is there a light Turn it on!”

“Ok!” Hattie was shocked by Ken’s imposing manner, but she quickly returned to her senses and went outside to turn on the lights

With a crisp sound, light instantly filled the entire garage.

The garage was filled with things and was in a mess. The ground was covered in dust. It was obvious that it had been abandoned for a long time.

Ken quickly scanned the entire garage and finally found Melody, who was lying on the ground on her last breath, in a

comer

Her face was flushed red, but her lips were pale. She looked so weak.

“Melody!” Ken quickly ran toward Melody

Melody was already a little delirious, Only the last trace of her consciousness remained.

The moment before she closed her eyes, she could only vaguely see a tall figure running toward her against the light in an imposing manner.

Has the angel come to fetch me? Melody blinked and finally closed her eyes weakly. She fell into darkness.

“Melody! Melody! Wake up!” Ken helped Melody sit up, only to see that she had long lost consciousness. Her entire body was limp, and her exposed arm was terrifyingly hot.

Chapter 90

Ken was shocked. He held the back of Melody’s neck with one hand and touched her forehead with the other.

Her forehead was burning hot.

¡Mi he

“She has a fever. I’ll take her to the hospital” As Ken spoke, he carried Melody and walked out

Ch.

Hanie quickly chased after him. “Mr. Ken! We’ve hired a family doctor. We can call him over to examine Miss Melody first….

Ch.

“No need” Ken looked at Hattie indifferently and said, “Don’t forget who caused her to become like this. I don’t think wants to be treated at home.”

she Ken’s words made Hattie choke.

Guilt washed over her like a tide.

The

Although she did not participate in locking Melody up here and was not qualified to participate, if she had told Maria this news from the beginning, Melody might have been released long ago.

She could not absolve herself from the blame.

Hattie felt very guilty. She could only nod and agree to Ken taking her out for treatment.

Maria only found it funny. “A week ago, I was the one who went to visit you. I didn’t expect it to be the other way around

now…

“It’s nothing!” Margaret patted Maria’s hand and said, “You’ve been worrying too much these past few days. At most, I’ll let Melody examine you. I’ve personally witnessed her superb medical skills.”

Margaret believed in Melody’s medical skills without a doubt. This made Maria, who had thought she did not have much time left, place some hope in Melody.

At this

s moment, hurried footsteps came from the side door.

Everyone in the living room looked over.

Ken carried Melody and quickly walked toward the entrance.

Maria and Margaret were shocked. They asked in unison, “How Melody?”

“She had a fever. Ken said concisely without slowing down.

“Take her to the hospital quickly.” Margaret quickly followed.

Maria was not in good health and could not follow them. She could only glare at Russell–Look what you’ve done!”

Russell was also frightened.

Just now, Margaret said that if anything happened to Melody, she would settle the score with him.

He thought that nothing would happen if Melody starved for a few days. In the end, something happened!

“Mom. I’ll go with them and check on her.” Russell looked calm, but how could he be calm for real?

He had long been panicking in his heart. Now, he was purely doing this to save his dignity. Otherwise, even the maids at

Chapter 90

home might look down on him.

The only thing he could do now was to try his best to make up for his mistake.

However, just as he took two steps forward. Ramon stopped him

“Mr. Ramon Russell did not understand.

Ramon said expressionlessly. “I think Miss Fox probably doesn’t want to see you when she wakes up, Just wait for the news at home. We’ll look after Miss Fox, so you don’t have to worry

As he spoke, he instructed his subordinates to bring the gifts from the pickup trucks in

After they moved the items from the three pickup trucks down, the gifts piled into a small mountain in the living room.

Yolanda looked at the packaging and knew that every gift was expensive.

She instantly forgot her mistake and asked happily. “Are these for us?“

Ramon said with a half–smile. These are gifts from the Swanson family to Miss Fox’s family”

It meant these gifts were for them!

Yolanda was so happy that she wanted to open it immediately.

However, the next moment, Ramon continued, “But since you moved Miss Fox out of the Fox family’s family tree, you nothing to do with Miss Fox anymore.”

In other words, these gifts were all for Melody and Yolanda could not get any of them

“Well. The corners of Yolanda’s mouth twitched awkwardly, and she couldn’t say anything else.

have

“Mrs. Maria.” Ramon ignored Yolanda and told Maria, Tl leave these gifts to you. Please send them to Miss Fox. We’ll send her to the hospital first.”

“Okay” Maria nodded. “Go quickly. When she wakes up, please give me a call.”

Ramon nodded and left without looking back.”

At this moment, the Fox family was in a mess. Ramon did not want to stay for a minute longer.

As soon as the Swanson family left, Yolanda began to cover the pile of gifts again.

She walked to Maria’s side and pretended to be concerned. “Maria, Melody is still young and has just returned from the countryside. I’m afraid she doesn’t know how valuable these things are. Moreover, she doesn’t need many things. For example, that pile of Hermes. It’s too inappropriate for her to wear it at her age. It’s easy to break if she leaves it there. Why don’t you let me help her take care of it? I can take care of those things usually?

Maria was not stupid. She knew that Yolanda had taken a fancy to this pile of gifts.

She sneered and said, “Yolanda, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You and Russell were the ones who wanted to chase Melody out back then. Now that you’ve seen her bring you benefits, you’re calling her so intimately. You’re an adult Don’t you feel ashamed

Maria did not like Yolanda, to begin with, but she would not criticize her directly. This time, she did not show Yolanda any respect at all.

Yolanda had never been scolded like this before. Her expression alternated between angry and afraid, and she was extremely embarrassed She wanted to ask Russell for help, but when she thought of how Russell had slapped her in front of everyone, she did not dare to ask him for help. She could only watch as Maria instructed the servants to send the gifts to the backyard one after

Once these things went to Maria, she could only wait for Maria to die before bringing them over.

Yolanda’s heart ached, but she could only endure it and not dare to say anything else.

Russell could not care less about these gifts. It was not that he was not greedy. If they sold these gifts, they could at least buy a house in the suburbs of Silverlake!

At this moment, Mabel, who had just finished her dance class, returned.

She immediately saw the pile of gifts in the living room that had not been completely moved away. Her eyes instantly lit up.

Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Hermes… These were all branded goods!

There are so many things. Did Ulric give me gifts again? It must be!‘ Mabel thought.

Other than Ulric, no one could afford to give so many expensive gifts.

At the thought of this, the soreness in Mabel’s body seemed to disappear instantly.

She walked quickly to Yolanda happily. To make Russell hear her, she raised her voice and said, “Mom, did Ulric give me gifts again? Seriously, he gave me so many gifts. It’s simply a waste of money!”
