Chapter 1096
The first call was from Fox. Russell Fox was still very terrified.
“President Zhou, why are you so free to call me? Is… is there something I didn’t do well before?”
Recently, to expand the factory, he had been attending dinner parties every day.
During one of the dinners, he exchanged contact information with CEO Zhou.
The other party was also in the clothing business, but their products were all expensive fur businesses. There was no conflict of interest with the Justalion Group.
However, when the other party spoke, he was extremely polite.
“Mr. Fox, you’ve misunderstood. I have something to ask of you.”
Russell Fox was stunned and asked even more suspiciously, “What is it? As long as I, Russell Fox can do it, I will definitely help you, CEO Zhou.”
“I’m relieved to hear CEO Fox’s words. Actually, it’s like this. My youngest daughter insisted on pestering me today and asked me to ask your daughter to design a birthday party dress for her. Her birthday is coming up soon, and she has to wear the dress designed by your daughter at the birthday party no matter what.”
Russell Fox’s eyes widened in shock.
He was also here for Mabel Fox’s design?
Mabel Fox: This Girl Is More Capable Than I Thought.
On the other end of the line, CEO Zhou continued, “I have many children, but the rest are all sons. I’m the only daughter. I’ve spoiled her, so I have no choice but to beg you for help. Otherwise, she’ll torture me to death.”
“Sure, sure. It’s not a big deal. I’ll definitely help you.” “Alright, I’ll definitely make friends with you. If it’s convenient for you, I’ll send her preferences and sizes to your phone now. Can you convey them for me?”
“No problem. Send it over!” Russell Fox immediately agreed.
In any case, designing one piece was also a design. Designing two pieces was also a design. It would be best if he could sell it to the other party.
Although the Justalion Group mainly made spring and autumn clothes, it might make winter clothes one day.
In this period, he still needed the help of this big shot in winter clothes.
“Alright, I’ll send it over then. Sorry to trouble you.” “You’re too kind.”
After exchanging pleasantries, the other party hung up.
Russell Fox also recovered from the surprise.
However, before he could calm down for long, another call came.
Without exception, they were all here to beg him for his daughter’s help in designing clothes.
Russell Fox was not stupid. He selectively agreed to the few people who were beneficial to him. The others were temporarily brushed off by Fox.
However, there were still seven or eight gowns that needed to be designed by Mabel Fox.
From the looks of it, his career was really about to start.
He was already middle-aged, yet he still had such luck. He lamented that the heavens had treated him well.
However, for fear of disturbing Mabel Fox’s date with Ulric Swanson, Russell Fox did not inform her immediately.
At this moment, the car finally arrived at a famous holiday.
He got out of the car with a smile on his face. Even though he didn’t have much money left in his pocket, he still ordered two escorts and the most expensive wine to enjoy.
Meanwhile, Melody Fox also reached the hospital.
Coincidentally, just as she arrived at the elevator, she bumped into Yu Leyou, who had just gotten off work from the outpatient clinic.
“Melody Fox.”
Yu Leyou’s eyes sparkled as he said, “I’ve been trying to contact you for the past two days, but I haven’t been able to. I wonder if I can treat you to dinner today? I have something to tell you.”
Melody Fox saw that the elevator was still on the 17th floor. He couldn’t ignore Yu Leyou forever, so he simply said, “If you have something to say, say it now. I don’t have Fox extra rooms today.”
“What about tomorrow?”
“Not tomorrow either.” Before Yu Leyou could ask again, Melody Fox added, “Not ever again.”
Yu Leyou’s expression changed slightly. He finally realized that Melody Fox did not want to eat with him, and not because she was so busy that she did not even have spare time to eat with him.
His expression darkened. Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore and asked, “I don’t understand. Why are you so resistant to me? Why didn’t you even give me a chance to pursue you? Am I so annoying to you?”
Melody Fox said expressionlessly, “Doctor Yu, you’ve misunderstood. It’s not because I hate you that I didn’t give you a chance to pursue me. It’s purely because I have someone I like and I’m already married to him. So, regardless of whether the person pursuing me is you or not, I’ll reject him.”
Yu Leyou raised his eyebrows. He was finally a little angry. “Melody Fox, even if you don’t like me, you can reject me directly. But can you stop lying to me? Do I look so easy to fool? Am I the kind of person you can treat casually?”
Melody Fox’s mouth opened, but he could not say a word for a long time.
She was really… speechless.
How could anyone not believe what others said and only acknowledge their own stubbornness?
From the looks of it, the dead He Xiangxiang and Yu Leyou were really compatible.
If she hadn’t appeared, they might really have been tied up for the rest of their lives.
However, when Yu Leyou saw that Melody Fox did not speak, he thought that she was admitting that she was lying.
“You’re finally willing to admit that you’re never married.” Melody Fox was too lazy to continue arguing with Yu Leyou about whether she was married or not. After all, it was impossible for her to carry the marriage certificate with her. Moreover, no matter how much she explained, Yu Leyou would never believe her with his personality.
Melody Fox simply nodded and said, “Yes, you’re saying that I’m lying, right? But since you asked me to reject you directly, I’ll reject you directly. Regardless of whether I’m married or not, I won’t consider you, Doctor Yu. I’m rejecting you clearly now, understand?”
“Why?” Yu Leyou blurted out, “In what way am I not good enough for you?”
Melody Fox raised his eyelids and looked deeply at Yu Leyou.
“Just because of what you said, how are you not good enough for me?”
“…What do you mean?”
“Doctor Yu, you might not have noticed it yourself, but I’ve felt it from the beginning. Even if you keep saying that you like me and want to pursue me, you’ve always felt a sense of superiority in front of me. Although I don’t know where your sense of superiority comes from, this sense of superiority disgusts me.”
“You…”
“Also, I really have a man I like and love deeply. He’s thousands of times better than you. He’s the only man I’ll love in my life. So I’ll never accept your pursuit.”
Yu Leyou’s expression changed again and again. Finally, he said, “You’re lying!”
“I’m lying? Do you think that I’m lying when I say that I have someone I like? Or have you decided that I can’t find a man who’s a thousand or ten thousand times better than you?” Yu Leyou’s lips moved, but he didn’t know how to respond. Melody Fox smiled.
“Look, you’ve realized that you feel superior to me, haven’t you? I’m not He Xiangxiang. I don’t worship you like her. I hope you can see through it as soon as possible. You actually don’t like me at all. What you like is just someone with better medical skills than you.”
Chapter 1097
Melody Fox patiently persuaded Yu Leyou seriously,” Thinking about it is not the same as loving her. Please don’t act like a child and not be able to tell this apart. You just can’t accept that there are women who don’t like you, who don’t worship you, but are better than you.”
In essence, Yu Leyou was extremely conceited.
Yu Leyou subconsciously denied, “No, it’s not like that. I really like you. How can I not tell if I like you or not? I don’t have any sense of superiority in front of you. It’s just that you feel inferior, so you feel special.”
Melody Fox was amused.
“Inferiority complex? Why should I feel inferior? I’m very confident in myself. On the other hand, Doctor Yu, although you’re conceited, you have an inferiority complex in front of me. All kinds of feelings are mixed together, so you misunderstood it as love.”
“No! I’m not the kind of person you say I am. I really like you and really want to pursue you.”
“Then there’s no need. As I said, I reject your pursuit. You can give up now.”
“I won’t give up!”
After talking for so long, she was just playing the lute to a COW!
Why didn’t she realize before that Yu Leyou was a piece of sticky candy that couldn’t be removed?
‘No, that’s not right.’
Actually, she had long noticed it. It was only because of her dignity and the fact that he was Rodney Stanton’s disciple that she had been patient and polite to him.
Otherwise, she would have already shut him up mercilessly. “Since you insist, I won’t stop you. However, I’ll let my husband stop you. I hope you won’t regret it.”
Yu Leyou chuckled.
“There’s no such person. Why should I regret it? If you want
to hire someone, it’s better for you to save this money. My feelings for you won’t change no matter what. I’ll prove to you that I really like you.”
Melody Fox frowned. There was already a hint of disgust in his eyes.
There was nothing wrong with liking someone. Wilmot Sherman had once expressed his affection to her, but she had politely rejected him. After making things clear, she still maintained a pure friendship with him.
However, this was already close to harassment. Forgive her for not being able to maintain her dignity.
“I advise you to give up as soon as possible! If you keep immersing yourself in your own world like this, it will only make me hate you.”
Coincidentally, the elevator finally arrived at the first floor.
Melody Fox was about to walk out when he saw the Liu couple standing in the elevator.
Liu Guangrui was also a little surprised to see Melody Fox. He then walked out of the elevator with his wife and greeted Melody Fox.
“Hello, Doctor Fox. I was just about to call you and treat you to a meal to thank you for saving my wife. I didn’t expect to meet you here.”
As Liu Guangrui spoke, he turned around and introduced Melody Fox to his wife.
Alice’s Chinese was not very good, so she thanked him gratefully in her native language.
Melody Fox waved her hand. “There’s no need to thank me. You don’t have to be polite either. You deliberately find time available to treat me to a meal. I’ve already taken the remuneration that I should have received. This is my duty. By the way, are you… discharged from the hospital?” “Yes. The doctor said we could go home and recuperate and come over every other week for a follow-up.”
After Liu Guangrui finished speaking, he noticed that Yu Leyou was right beside him.
Only then did he greet Yu Leyou. However, his attitude was indifferent and not as enthusiastic as he was towards Melody Fox.
Yu Leyou felt a little uncomfortable, but he could only nod with a smile.
“Congratulations. Go back and rest well. Don’t tire yourself out.”
“Yes, we know.”
Liu Guangrui nodded and said to Melody Fox again, “Doctor Fox, if you don’t mind, let us treat you to a meal? If it’s not convenient for you today, we can do it another day.”
Liu Guangrui’s wife, Alice, also invited him warmly.
Melody Fox had no choice but to agree.
“Alright, let’s have a meal together tonight.”
She paused and remembered that Liu Guangrui’s company had a lot of collaborations with the Swanson Group, so she said, “Do you mind if I bring my husband along?”
“I don’t mind! Of course not!”
“Alright, I’ll wait for you to settle down at Fox. Send me
Room Fox and the address. I still have to go upstairs to see another patient now.”
“Then go ahead and get busy. We won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll get Old Xu to send you your address later.”
“Will do.”
Melody Fox nodded and watched Liu Guangrui and his wife leave.
Old Xu followed behind Liu Guangrui and his wife. When he passed by Melody Fox, Fox, he also bowed gratefully before quickly following them.
As for Yu Leyou, Old Xu treated him like air.
It was no wonder that the Liu family was not so polite to Yu Leyou. It was because Melody Fox hadn’t appeared yet, so Yu Leyou had no idea how to treat Alice’s illness. Other than giving Alice antibiotics and nutrient solutions to keep her alive, he didn’t contribute anything.
Therefore, other than maintaining basic courtesy to Yu Leyou, they were no different from strangers to him.
However, Yu Leyou felt even more uncomfortable.
Not only were Liu Guangrui and his wife not enthusiastic about him, but even Liu Guangrui’s subordinates dared to treat him like this.
After all, he was his wife’s attending physician.
From the corner of his eye, Melody Fox saw the displeasure in Yu Leyou’s eyes. He said indifferently, “Doctor Yu, instead of wasting Fox on someone like me who’s not worth it, why don’t you study your medical skills more and benefit more patients?”
Yu Leyou gritted his teeth and said, “I’m already good enough for all the patients. They can’t afford the medical fees, so I helped pay for them all. As a doctor, I think I’m good enough.”
“I didn’t say you were bad as a doctor. You’re thinking too much.”
Melody Fox pressed the elevator switch again and stepped in.
Yu Leyou followed closely behind. He stared at Melody Fox and asked, “Are you looking down on me? Do you think I’m not good enough for the patient?”
“I’m not looking down on you. You’re already good enough to the patient. Very few doctors can help the patient pay for medical expenses.”
Only then did Yu Leyou feel slightly better.
However, in the next second, Melody Fox added, “But I don’t agree with what you’re doing. You can clearly set up a foundation to let more people have the chance to help more patients, but you insist on taking money out of your own pocket…”
This method was a little too “selfless”, so much so that Melody Fox wondered if he was doing this for his reputation.
Yu Leyou was not Buddha. Did he have to be like Buddha,” cutting off meat to feed the eagles”?
Yu Leyou narrowed his eyes.
“Are you doubting my intentions?”
“I didn’t say that.”
Coincidentally, the elevator arrived at the cardiology floor.
Melody Fox was about to walk out when Yu Leyou grabbed his sleeve.
“Melody Fox, I can swear that the reason why I’m paying out of my own pocket is all because of my selfless contributions. The foundation’s waters are too deep. Instead of putting the money into the foundation, I might as well pay them directly.”
Chapter 1098
“It’s up to you what you think and what you do. You don’t have to explain any of this to me.”
As Melody Fox spoke, he frowned and broke free from Yu Leyou’s hand.
“Let go. Don’t touch me.”
Yu Leyou’s expression instantly turned even uglier.
“Do you feel disgusted when I touch you?”
“I just don’t think you’re being very polite. And I’m a married woman. I can’t pull other men.”
“Don’t use this reason to lie to me anymore, and please stop looking at me with prejudice. You’ve misunderstood me too deeply. This is unfair to me.”
“There’s no such thing as fairness when it comes to relationships. That’s all I have to say. I’m leaving.”
She stopped looking at Yu Leyou and quickly walked out of the elevator that was about to close.
Because of the gap, Yu Leyou couldn’t get out of the elevator at that moment.
When the elevator door opened again, Melody was already at the door of Orek’s ward.
Zuo Ye had been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw Melody coming forward, he quickly made a please” gesture respectfully.
The one with a low waist was just short of bowing to Melody of 90 degrees.
When Yu Leyou saw this, he felt uncomfortable again.
They were clearly his patients, but they were even more respectful and polite to a foreign doctor like Melody Fox. This was too much.
Yu Leyou subconsciously stepped forward.
Melody Fox had already entered.
He looked inside and saw a bright smile on Orek’s face. His thoughts immediately went crooked.
Could it be that there was another reason why Zuo Ye was so respectful to Melody Fox?
This middle-aged man, Orek, was also interested in Melody Fox?
Although Orek was a big shot in the business world and had an extraordinary status, it was easy for people to have different feelings for their savior.
He then thought of what Melody had said, while she was waiting for the elevator downstairs, had said to him: “The person I love is 10,000 times better than you.”
Could the person she loved be Orek?
If it was Orrick, there was indeed a world of difference between them.
Unexpectedly, Melody Fox looked like an honest person, but his heart was higher than the sky!
Didn’t she know that Orek already had a wife?
Moreover, Orek’s wife was a noble from Europe.
How could an orphan girl like her, who had been chased out of her family, be a match for the daughter of a noble?
How arrogant!
She relied on her good medical skills to ignore his feelings and was willing to be a third party!
An unknown anger burned in Yu Leyou’s chest.
“Director Yu, what’s the matter?”
Zuo Ye saw Yu Le walking over and looked inside with an ugly expression. He vaguely felt a trace of displeasure in his heart.
What was going on with Yu Leyou?
‘Don’t you have any basic manners?’
He took two steps forward and blocked Yu Leyou’s line of sight.
Only then did Yu Leyou come back to his senses.
He quickly hid the anger in his heart and said to Zuo Ye, “I just came back from the outpatient clinic to take a look at Mr. Ou’s condition.”
“I see. Thank you for your concern, Director Yu. However, we’ve already invited Miss Fox over, so we won’t trouble you. You can go and do your own things first. As the director, you must be very busy every day.”
Zuo Ye’s tone was polite.
However, Yu Leyou still didn’t like what he heard.
After saying so much, didn’t she just tell him not to go in?
Yu Leyou took a deep breath and suppressed the depression in his heart. He said to Zuo Ye, “Alright, I understand. Please wait for Melody Fox to come out, Fox. Ask her to come to my office to look for me. I have something very important to ask her.”
“…Alright.”
As Zuo Ye spoke, he walked into the ward and closed the door.
It seemed to prevent him from peeking inside.
Yu Leyou’s expression changed again.
However, seeing the few burly bodyguards guarding the door, he did not dare to vent his anger and could only leave with a dark expression.
In the ward.
Melody Fox received the gift that Orek had prepared for her as soon as she entered.
It was actually a Buddhist tablet carved from jade.
“Mr. Ou’s surname is Buddha?”
“Mm.” Orek nodded and said, “Keep this Buddhist tablet well. In the future, if you need Ou Jing or any of my corporations’ help, take out this Buddhist tablet and they will do as you say.”
Melody Fox was stunned.
In that case, the value of this Buddhist tablet was the lowest. What was higher was that it symbolized Orrick’s orders?
After reacting, Melody Fox immediately handed the Buddhist tablet back.
“Mr. Ou, I can’t accept such an expensive thing. You should take it back.”
Orek blocked her hand and said, “Everything is dead. There’s nothing precious about it. Besides, you saved my life. This little thing is nothing. If you don’t accept it, then take my life back.”
Melody Fox did not expect Orek to say that.
This time, if she did not accept the Buddhist tablet, it would be as if she wanted to take Orek’s life.
“Miss, just accept it. This is a token of appreciation from Mr. Ou. He specially instructed me to bring the Buddhist token to the hospital.”
“Then… Alright. Mr. Ou, if you feel unwell in the future, you can look for me with Fox.”
Such a huge favor could not be repaid in one treatment. “Okay, okay.”
“Then I’ll take your pulse first.”
Orek immediately took out his uninjected hand.
Melody Fox could see that this hand was originally strong and powerful, but now it was slowly withering.
This was all caused by the previous major surgeries that were made out of nothing.
She took Orek’s hand and took his pulse carefully. After a while, she said, “The damage to your vitality is too serious. Your heart’s recovery function hasn’t fully recovered, so you have to take Dr. Baxter7585 for a while to recover.”
Zuo Ye asked from the side, “Miss, do you want me to buy more supplements for Sir every day?”
“There’s no need for supplements. He’s still weak and can’t take nourishment. If you really want to nourish him, then use food to nourish him. I’ll write a prescription later and help you write and take over the food to nourish him. You can take turns making it for Mr. Ou.”
“Okay, okay.”
Zuo Ye agreed as he handed over a pen and paper.
Melody lay on the bedside table and wrote the prescription.
Eric looked at Melody while writing with her head lowered. Her serious expression was almost the same as Jiang Wilona’s.
However, he did not know why his and Jiang Wilona’s daughter looked like this.
But no matter what his daughter looked like, in his heart, she was the most beautiful and adorable girl in the world. As Orek looked on, he felt his heartache again.
He already knew what kind of life Melody Fox had before.
Russell Fox: That bastard actually treated his daughter like this. He was simply courting death!
After he confirmed his father-daughter relationship with Melody, the first thing he did was teach Russell Fox a lesson!
He wanted him to know what a father should do!
Chapter 1099
Orek was angry and guilty.
Although Russell Fox was not a good person, he was definitely not a good father.
He had been absent from his daughter’s life for more than 20 years and did not know of her existence before this.
If he had investigated earlier and found Melody earlier, she would not have suffered so much for no reason.
What family honor? What is Oujing Group? Compared to his daughter, they were all useless.
In the future, he would do his best to make it up to her. He would love her, dote on her, and pamper her. He would make her the happiest girl in the world and pamper her to the skies!
Otherwise, he would not be worthy of being her father. As for those who had bullied her and made her suffer, he would repay them a thousand times over!
Melody Fox quickly finished writing the prescription for conditioning. He began to think about what to write to nourish his body.
However, when she turned her head inadvertently and saw the fire in Orrick’s eyes, she was stunned. She subconsciously stopped writing and asked, “Mr. Ou, what’s wrong? Did I do something wrong?”
Why did he look like he wanted to eat someone?
It was only then that Orek came back to his senses. He realized that he had not controlled his emotions just now. The expression he revealed frightened Melody Fox.
His face quickly softened, and he returned to his amiable self.
“No, no, it has nothing to do with you. You did a great job.”
Melody Fox asked tentatively, “Mr. Ou, did you think of the person who harmed you?”
Orek wanted to say that he did not cause his talents to lose control of their expressions. Instead, he thought of the people who harmed Melody Fox and Jiang Wilona.
However, he could not say this yet. If he said it, Melody Fox would definitely be shocked.
At the very least, he had to get Melody Fox closer to him, not the current doctor-patient relationship Fox, before he could slowly reveal it.
So Orek nodded without hesitation. “Yes. I think of the people who harmed me.”
“The doctor who operated on you is already in your hands, right?”
“Yes… but this guy is very stubborn. He didn’t reveal any effective information at all. Now that he’s half-dead, he still refuses to admit that there’s nothing wrong with my heart. They set me up to operate on me.”
“Yes.” Zuo Ye also said, “This guy is indeed hard. I’ve already broken two of his fingers, but he still refuses to speak. He insists that he was wronged and even said…”
“What else?” Melody Fox asked.
Zuo Ye glanced at Orrick. Seeing that Orrick had no intention of forbidding him from interrupting, he mustered his courage and said, “He even said that there’s nothing wrong with him. The ones with problems are the doctors who treated Sir.”
“Those doctors” naturally included Melody Fox.
Melody Fox looked sideways and asked Orek.
“So does Mr. Ou believe him or me?”
“You don’t have to ask. Of course, I believe you.”
If he didn’t believe his daughter, why would he believe an outsider?
In other words, even if Melody Fox was not his daughter, he would still believe Melody Fox.
His wife’s clansmen had long coveted his assets and power. They wanted to join forces and naturally torture him to death without anyone noticing.
However, it was a pity that the heavens treated him well. Not only did he survive, but he also found his daughter.
Thinking about it this way, he was a little grateful to them. Melody could naturally feel Orek’s trust in her.
She heaved a sigh of relief.
It was good that Eric believed her. Otherwise, it would be a little troublesome to explain.
Orek continued, “Those guys are ambitious. I will never let them have their way! I won’t let anyone who participated in this matter off!”
Melody Fox pointed out the core of the problem.
“The most important thing now is to know who
participated in this power struggle and what plans and arrangements they have next.”
Zuo Ye said with a headache, “We’re still in Halcyon now. We have to go back to Europe and investigate in detail. But Yuliv is too loyal. It’s very difficult for us to pry open his mouth…”
Melody Fox smiled.
“He’s not loyal. He knows that once he says it, both sides will want his life. In order to save his life, he chose to fight to the death.”
Zuo Ye asked, “Then according to Miss Fox…”
“Since the physical punishment is useless against him, let’s attack his heart.”
“You mean…?”
Melody FoxMabel smiled and revealed his plan.
Zuo Ye and Orick’s eyes lit up.
“This is a good idea! Once he knows that his death is imminent, he will have to put up a desperate struggle no matter what.”
“That’s right.”
“I’ll do it now!”
“Wait a moment. When I’ve finished writing the food supplements, you can get someone to prepare dinner.”
It was already four in the afternoon. It was time to prepare dinner.
Zuo Ye had just nodded when he heard Orek say, “Don’t prepare dinner for today. Eliza will come over.”
“Eliza is … ?”
“She’s my current wife,” Orek said as if he was afraid that Melody Fox would misunderstand. He immediately added, ” I don’t have any marital feelings for her, nor have I done anything intimate with her. Yuliv is one of her people. However, at the moment, I need to calm her down before her mother’s side can let down their guard.”
Melody Fox nodded and did not ask further.
Although she was very curious why Orek could still be married to Eliza for so many years if he didn’t like her.
However, Orek’s family matters had nothing to do with her, and she was in no position to ask about Orek’s family matters.
However, Melody Fox did not ask, but Orek did.
“Back then, I once had a woman I loved very much. However, my family could not accept her and even threatened my marriage with Eliza with her life. For her safety, I had no choice but to cut off contact with her and marry Eliza. However, all these years, I have never touched Eliza and have never forgotten the person I once loved.”
“Mr. Ou is really infatuated. I thought that with your status, it would be difficult for you to like a woman for so many years.”
“Love has nothing to do with status.”
Melody Fox lowered his eyes. “That’s true.”
If Ken Swanson cared about these things, he would not have chosen her.
Orek sighed and said, “But now I know that after I left, she didn’t have a good life either. In the end, I was too young and thought that leaving was the best for her. I regret it very much, but it’s useless to regret it. As Fox, I’m too weak and cowardly. If I insisted on marrying her and dared to risk my life, things wouldn’t have turned out like this. I’ve let her down.”
“Mr. Ou, why don’t you look for her? It might not be too late to make up for it now.”
Orek opened his mouth. There were a million things he wanted to say, but all he could manage was, “She’s passed away.”
“…I’m sorry. I was too abrupt.”
“It’s alright.” Orek forced a smile and looked at Melody Fox with a gentle gaze.
Chapter 1100
Melody Fox was baffled by Orek’s loving and guilty gaze.
Why did it seem like she was the one who was feeling guilty?
She was probably thinking too much. Orek might have heard her mention this and thought of those old matters. She said seriously, “Mr. Ou, you don’t have to feel too guilty. Since you two are truly in love, I think that lady in heaven will definitely understand your situation as Fox. Moreover, Fox, you’re also thinking about her safety. All these years, you’ve never betrayed her.”
“Do you really think she’ll understand me and forgive me?” Orek asked with some excitement.
“Um… I don’t know much about that lady, but from your tone, she must be a very nice woman. So, I think… yes, she won’t blame you.”
Orek’s eyes were red as if he had received great encouragement.
“Melody, write down the food supplements for me. I have to recover quickly.”
Only when his body recovered could he have the energy and stamina to do things.
He had a lot to do. About Melody, about Jiang Wilona, about Eliza…
He had to do these things himself to resolve them as soon as possible.
“Will do.”
Melody Fox nodded and thought carefully in his mind. He wrote down the name of the food supplement and the general ingredients and cooking method on the paper.
After she finished writing, she handed it to Zuo Ye and said, “I’ll still be in Room Insterimond for the next few days. If there’s an extra Room Fox, I can help to make it a few times.” “This is too much trouble for you, Miss…”
“It’s no trouble at all. Mr. Ou gave me this token, so I should do something for Mr. Ou to recover.”
Zuo Ye still wanted to refuse. After all, it was really unreasonable to let Eldest Miss cook personally. However, when he saw Orek’s happy expression from the corner of his eye, he immediately changed his mind.
Mr. Ou had never tasted his daughter’s cooking!
He immediately nodded. “Thank you, Miss.”
“It’s not hard. If I want to do it one day, I’ll tell you in advance so that you won’t have to make more.’
“Okay, okay.” Zuo Ye nodded repeatedly.
Coincidentally, Melody Fox received Room Fox and the address sent by Liu Guangrui’s subordinate, Old Xu. He bade farewell.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave first. Just follow the prescription and get the medicine to fry it. The medicine will taste a little bad twice a day. Remember to prepare some candied plums in advance.”
“Yes.”
However, OreSeur was a little reluctant.
“Melody, you’re leaving just like that? Aren’t you going to sit for a while longer?”
“I won’t disturb you anymore. You still need to recuperate from your illness. You can’t have too many emotional fluctuations. It’s not good for your heart.”
“Alright.” Orek could not find an excuse to keep Melody Fox, so he could only nod.
However, at this moment, Orek suddenly called out to
Melody Fox. He took out a key from the bag beside the bed and handed it to her.
Melody Fox asked in confusion, “This is?”
“This is my unused villa in Insterimond. It’s in Jin City, D.C. No one lives in Fox, but it’s always been cleaned. If you need a place to stay, go over and live there. The key is marked with a specific house number.”
Melody Fox quickly said, “You’re welcome. I have a place to stay. I live in one of his apartments with Ken Swanson.”
“Just accept it. If it’s idle, it’s idle. We can discuss things in the villa in the future. Take it as my consultation fee.”
“Mr. Zuo has already paid for my consultation.”
“That’s different. That’s the consultation fee for the surgery. This is today’s consultation fee.”
Orek was too generous.
Jin City was now worth at least 200 million dollars yuan. Not far away was the Forbidden City, which was almost the center of Insterimond.
Melody Fox refused again. “The token you gave me is today’s consultation fee. I really can’t accept this villa.”
Seeing that she kept rejecting him, he simply handed the key to Zuo Ye and asked him to pass it on to Melody.
Melody Fox could not refuse at all. He could only accept it. “Thank you, Mr. Ou.”
“You’re welcome. The villa has been occupied a few times. For safety reasons, you can change the lock directly.”
“Alright, then I’ll take my leave first.”
“Okay, go ahead.”
Orek watched Melody Fox leave reluctantly, but he did not forget to instruct Zuo Ye to send him off.
Zuo Ye quickly followed Melody Fox’s footsteps. He remembered what Yu Leyou had told him when he entered Fox, so he told Melody Fox word for word.
“He said it was important?”
“Yes. Judging from his expression, it doesn’t seem like something ordinary.”
Melody Fox sighed and said, “Alright, I understand. I’ll go look for him then. You don’t have to send me off.”
“It’s okay. I’ll wait for you at the elevator.”
“Alright, I can tell you how to cook a few dishes.” “Uh-uh.”
Melody Fox nodded and walked towards Yu Leyou’s office.
Yu Leyou’s office was in the large office, but there was a separate compartment.
A doctor led a group of reporters and patients to Yu Leyou’s office.
She pushed the door open and entered.
“Department Director Yu, this is the patient’s family member you helped last time. He especially brought reporters over today to get you a thank-you interview. I wonder if you have Fox rooms now?”
“There’s no need for an exclusive interview. Just take a few photos and let them write their own words.”
After Yu Leyou said that, the doctor went out to bring the reporters and their families in.
The patient immediately went forward to hand over the silk banner.
“Director Yu, thank you for saving my wife’s life and paying for our medical expenses. You’re our family’s benefactor!”
Yu Leyou enjoyed it very much. He took the pennant with a smile and took a photo with the family members under the camera.
The reporters’ eyes were filled with reverence.
“Department Director Yu is really a good doctor. There aren’t many people who are as selfless as you.”
Yu Leyou straightened his chest and said, “This is nothing. As a doctor, my duty is to consider the patient. Since his family is in trouble and I have little ability, I naturally have to help. I can’t just watch a life lose its chance to live because of a wallet, right?”
“Director Yu is really an angel in white!”
The reporters had come to this kind of thank-you interview several times, so they were very familiar with it. They quickly went through the process and said goodbye to Yu Leyou with a smile.
Yu Leyou had just watched the reporters leave when he saw Melody Fox standing at the door.
The calm smile on his face suddenly became a little
reserved, as if some cover had been suddenly pulled away.
He quickly tidied up the expression on his face and raised his voice slightly to instruct the family member, “You don’t have to do this in the future. I don’t care about these empty titles. I’m already very happy that you can recover well.”
“Thank you, Doctor Yu. You’re really a good person! We’ll definitely take good care of her body and not let your
efforts go to waste. We’ll also return the money as soon as possible.”
“Don’t worry. Let’s wait for the patient to recover first.” “Yes.”
The family members left gratefully.
Chapter 1101
After Yu Leyou watched the family members leave, he looked up at Melody Fox with a surprised expression, as if he had just discovered her at the door.
After being stunned for a moment, Yu Leyou quickly walked forward.
“You’re here? What Fox? Have you been waiting long? Come in quickly.”
The corner of Melody Fox’s mouth twitched imperceptibly.
She had always been an observant person. Yu Leyou had clearly seen her just now, but he pretended not to see her. She did not know what he was pretending to be.
Melody Fox did not expose Yu Leyou’s words, nor did he walk into the office. He went straight to the point and asked, “Mr. Zuo told me that you have something very important
to tell me? If it’s about what happened just now, I don’t need to enter your office.”
Yu Leyou furrowed his brows, but he still said, “No, it has nothing to do with what happened just now.”
Melody Fox then walked into the office.
She turned around and saw that Yu Leyou had closed and locked the office door. A cold glint flashed across her eyes.
However, her expression did not change because she knew that Yu Leyou would not be so ridiculous. Moreover, Yu Leyou would not be her match.
It made little difference to her whether the door was locked or not.
“What do you need to lock the door for?”
Yu Leyou turned around and said, “It’s about He Xiangxiang.” Melody Fox looked up.
“Oh? Then what do you want to say?”
Yu Leyou looked straight at her and asked directly, “Does He Xiangxiang’s death have anything to do with you?”
Melody Fox remained calm and pretended to be surprised.”
She’s dead?”
Yu Leyou stared at her expression and asked, “This really has nothing to do with you?”
“I don’t even know what He Xiangxiang looks like. Why are you saying this?”
Yu Leyou lowered his eyes and said, “He Xiangxiang’s family came to the hospital this morning and said that her body was found in a house that was being demolished. She was killed by a bomb.”
As Yu Leyou spoke, he looked up at her and said, “In
Halcyon, whether it’s guns or bombs, they’re all prohibited. Someone who can use bombs must have an extraordinary identity.”
“What are you trying to say?”
“Since you don’t know about this, I want to tell you my guess. I suspect that Mr. Orrick was behind He Xiangxiang’ s death.”
Melody Fox suddenly raised his eyelids and looked at Yu Leyou as if he was looking at a fool.
“Why would Mr. Ou do such a thing? He has nothing to do with He Xiangxiang, right?”
Yu Leyou said meaningfully, “It’s true that he doesn’t have any entanglements with He Xiangxiang, but you and He Xiangxiang have entanglements. He Xiangxiang has denied your medical skills several times… By the way, she also stopped you from performing surgery on Mr. Ou.”
“What do you mean by that? What do you mean by
Although Mr. Ou has no entanglement with He Xiangxiang, I have an entanglement with her?”
Yu Leyou looked at her deeply.
“Do you need me to spell it out for you?”
“If you don’t make it clear, how will I know what you mean?” Yu Leyou nodded.
“Alright, then I’ll explain it to you. You said that you have someone you like, and that person is countless times better than me. Now I know who that person is. He’s Mr. Ou, right?”
The corner of Melody Fox’s mouth twitched uncontrollably. “… Are you out of your mind?”
“You don’t have to deny it. I can already tell. Moreover, Mr. Ou’s feelings for you are extraordinary. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have blown up He Xiangxiang just because you had a quarrel with her. But Melody Fox, don’t forget that Mr. Ou is already married. His wife’s name is Eliza, and she’s a noble from Europe. Her family has a noble title.”
“I hope you can wake up. It’s impossible between you and Mr. Ou. Mr. Ou’s feelings for you aren’t love, but gratitude. It’s just that he mistakenly thought that he loved you. If you continue to be stubborn, you might end up like He Xiangxiang and die a tragic death without a complete corpse. Europe doesn’t prohibit guns and explosives. I’m not exaggerating!”
Melody Fox closed her eyes and wanted to curse.
However, scolding such a fool was equivalent to wasting her breath.
“You’re thinking too much. Mr. Ou and I are just doctors and patients. I don’t have any thoughts about him. He’s just grateful to me and doesn’t have any other thoughts.”
“Why won’t you admit it? There’s no one else in the office. You can admit it directly. As long as you change your mind, I swear, I’ll forget about this very quickly and treat you like before.”
“There’s no need! It’s up to you what you think. I’m indeed not the good person you think I am.”
“Are you admitting your feelings for Mr. Ou?”
“What I’m saying is, Yu Leyou, you’re an incurable idiot.”
Yu Leyou’s face darkened.
“You…”
“I don’t want to waste Fox rooms with you here. Goodbye!” With that, she turned to open the door.
However, Yu Leyou reached out his hand to pull her back.
“Don’t go. If you don’t make it clear, don’t even think about leaving this place.”
Melody Fox quickly turned around and mercilessly grabbed Yu Leyou, pinning him to the ground.
Yu Leyou subconsciously wanted to struggle, but he was shocked to realize that he, a man, was no match for a thin and weak woman.
This was a great humiliation!
“Melody Fox, let go of me!”
“Of course, I’ll let you go, but I’m warning you, don’t talk nonsense after you go out. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear anything just now, but if you dare to go out and talk nonsense, I guarantee that no one can offend me or Mr. Ou. Take care!”
After saying that, Melody did not waste any more time on Yu Leyou’s nonsense. She quickly unlocked the door and left.
Yu Leyou crawled up from the ground in pain. Just as he was about to chase after her, he saw a few colleagues running over and asking worriedly, “Department Director Yu, are you alright?”
Yu Leyou was just about to ask what she meant when he heard a nurse say, “Dr. Fox said that you have a brain injury and asked us to take a look at you.”
‘…” Brain injury?
Was he saying that there was something wrong with his brain?
Yu Leyou’s face darkened as he said, “I’m fine, all of you can leave!”
His colleagues looked at Yu Leyou suspiciously and quickly left.
At this moment, Yu Leyou was no longer in the mood to chase after him. Furious, he hammered the wall heavily.
Damn it!
Stubborn woman!
Why didn’t she listen to a single word he said?
Did she really only know regret at the moment before she died?
Yu Leyou was in a bad mood when his phone suddenly rang.
He took out his phone and looked at the caller ID. It was his father.
He tried his best to adjust his emotions before picking up. “Dad.”
Father Yu asked, “Did you use money to subsidize the patient again today?”
“… Yes, how did you know? No, why are you suddenly asking this?”
Chapter 1102
It wasn’t surprising that Father Yu found out so quickly. Reporters nowadays were releasing press releases faster and faster, so it was normal.
However, he had done this many times in the past. Although Father Yu knew, he had never called him specifically to ask about it.
After all, this bit of money was nothing to the Yu family.
But why did he suddenly call for this?
Father Yu asked coldly, “How much did you pay for the patient?”
“Why are you asking this out of the blue?”
“Just answer me!”
Yu Leyou was shocked by Father Yu’s unyielding attitude. He paused for a moment before replying, “Not much, just 2twenty thousand dollars.”
“I’m not talking about just this once. I’m talking about all the money put together.”
Yu Leyou did some calculations in his head and said,” About 20 million.”
“More than 20 million?! You’re really a spendthrift! Hurry up and get all the money back!”
“…No, Dad, why did you suddenly say that? You knew about this before. Besides, you didn’t say anything in the past. You even said that it was good to do this. It can accumulate my reputation and help me become a top talent in the medical world in the future.”
“That was then. It’s different now.”
“Different how?”
“You idiot! You only care about the hospital. Don’t you know anything about the family?”
“What… should I know?”
On the other end of the phone, Father Yu took a deep breath and said, “The projects I invested in this year have all failed. Our family is about to go bankrupt! I urgently need this twenty million yuan capital now. I’ll give it a try one last time. Without this capital, we won’t even have a chance to make a comeback.”
“Boom-
It was as if a soundless thunder had struck Yu Leyou’s body, leaving him dumbstruck.
After a few seconds, Yu Leyou finally found his voice. “Dad… are you kidding? Is our family going bankrupt?” “Do you think I would make such an unlucky joke with you?” Yes, his father was a very superstitious person. Ping Fox was also a serious person. It was impossible for him to joke with him like this.
“But why did he suddenly go bankrupt?”
“It’s not sudden. It’s just that the company has been in an economic crisis for a long time. Now that smart technology is getting more and more developed, our industry has slowly begun to be replaced. This year, we’ve only officially entered a crisis.”
The Yu Family had started their business with a thermometer, but they had always been working with a mercury thermometer.
With the appearance of various intelligent thermometers, the Yu Family had long shown signs of declining.
Moreover, Father Yu’s luck was not good this year. The few projects he had invested in had all lost money.
Originally, he had a very promising project this year that could earn a large sum of money to maintain the company’s current operations. However, because of artificial intelligence, this project could not be done, so he lost his last chance to make a comeback.
Today, a friend of his had given him the opportunity to collaborate and invest in a smart thermometer. However, he had encountered financial difficulties.
Therefore, Father Yu urgently needed a sum of money to invest in the smart thermometer.
This was the Yu Family’s last and last chance.
“I’ve already mortgaged my family’s house, but the loan amount isn’t enough. I’m just short of 4,538,13 yuan. If you can withdraw the money, I don’t need to ask anyone to borrow money from me anymore. So, quickly listen to me and try your best to withdraw all the money paid to the patient.”
“But… I’m afraid that the patient will not be able to repay the debt if he suddenly goes to collect it.”
“Even if you can’t pay it back, you have to pay it back! You started paying it a few years ago. Even if you can’t recover the medical fees that were just paid for the Fox rooms, you should let the first batch of patients pay it back, right? Don’t tell me you want to watch me, your father, grovel and borrow money from others?”
millions of dollars. It was neither too much nor too little.
If the Yu Family was still the former Yu Family, there would naturally be a lot of people willing to send money to their door.
However, Fox was different from the past. The Yu family was already on the decline, and the company was facing bankruptcy.
Under such circumstances, almost no one would come to provide help in times of need.
As the old saying went, it was easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to provide charcoal in the snow. This was the logic.
Yu Leyou listened to Father Yu’s words on the other end of the phone, and his expression changed again and again. To be honest, he had never thought of taking back the money he had spent. He only wanted to use it to buy his reputation.
But now, he was suddenly asked to take it back. Wasn’t this making things difficult for him?
Yu Leyou took a deep breath and said, “Dad, don’t be anxious. I’ll come back first and see if there’s any other way. It just so happens that I’m attending the outpatient clinic today. It’s already an hour after work. I’ll come back and discuss it with you now.”
Father Yu said tiredly, “Alright, come back first. By the way, the mortgage on the house is completed today, so don’t go back to your original home. That already belongs to the bank.”
Yu Leyou was shocked.
“Then my things…”
“I’ve already sold the valuables. The clothes and so on have all been moved to the rental house. I’ll send the you
address of the rental house. Go back to this address.”
Yu Leyou couldn’t help but grumble, “Why didn’t you tell me about this earlier?”
“Ha!” Father Yu sneered and said, “It’s all because your mother dotes on you too much. She said that she didn’t want you to worry about the company’s matters, so she didn’t ask me to tell you.”
Mrs. Yu’s crying voice came from the other end of the phone, which made Yu Leyou even more irritated. “Okay, then send me the address. I’ll come back now.” After the call ended, Yu Leyou felt a headache coming on. He pressed his temples hard to make his expression look normal before walking out.
However, just as Yu Leyou walked out, a colleague walked over.
“Department Director Yu, I happen to have something to ask you. The patient I’m in charge of has a poor family background. The old man is old and has no children. Because of the cost, he plans to give up on treatment. I think he’s really pitiful, so I wanted to ask you if you can help the patient pay the medical fees?”
In the past, Yu Leyou would very enthusiastically go over to the patient to ask about the situation. After confirming that the other party really did not have the financial ability, he would pay the other party’s medical fees.
But today, Yu Leyou only felt irritated when he heard this, and his face darkened uncontrollably.
“If he’s your patient, why did you ask me to pay for him? What do you think I am? A sucker?”
The doctor was stunned and quickly said, “Of course not. It’s just that in the past…”
“That was in the past! Don’t look for me for such things in the future.”
After Yu Leyou finished speaking, he strode away with a cold expression.
The doctor was confused.
What was going on? Did Chief Yu eat explosives today?
Wasn’t he always passionate about such things in the past? What was wrong with him today?
The doctor didn’t understand, but he could only give up. However, he turned around and chatted with his colleagues about this.
Chapter 1103
Department Fox happened to be idle, and many people had seen what had just happened.
The group of people sat together and immediately started chattering.
“Department Director Yu is very strange today. In the past, when he encountered patients who needed help, he would agree to pay without hesitation. Just yesterday, didn’t he pay 2twenty thousand dollars yuan for the patient who brought the reporter here just now?”
“That’s right. What’s wrong with Chief Physician Yu today? Although he has a calm personality, it’s rare for him to fall out with someone like today.”
“Not only that, but he also said not to look for him for such things in the future. Did something happen at home?”
“Director Yu’s family is very rich. There shouldn’t be a sudden accident, right?”
“Maybe he’s just upset.”
Someone mentioned Melody Fox again.
“Just now, Miss Fox left Fox. He even told us that Chief Yu had a brain injury. Could it be… related to this?”
“Brain injury? I can’t tell. What Fox days?”
“I don’t know. There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with him, but he does seem like a different person today.”
“Alright, let’s not make wild guesses. Let’s not look for Chief Physician Yu in Room Fox so that we don’t get ourselves into trouble.”
Everyone’s attention quickly shifted to He Xiangxiang’s matter.
“Who did He Xiangxiang offend? She was suddenly blown up.”
“It can’t be a terrorist organization, can it? Her mouth is unforgiving, unreasonable, and unforgiving. It’s normal for her to offend an underground organization.”
“Tsk, the world is really unpredictable. Not long ago, she was still arrogant in our department and looked down on everyone.”
Huajin Restaurant.
When Melody Fox arrived at the restaurant, Liu Guangrui was already waiting.
“Miss Fox, welcome, welcome. My wife isn’t sitting in Room Fox yet, so I didn’t let her come. Please forgive me.”
Melody Fox nodded and said, “It’s okay. I wanted to tell you not to come and rest at home. It’s better now.”
Liu Guangrui nodded and looked at the empty space behind Melody Fox. He asked, “Didn’t you say you were bringing Mr. Swanson over? Where is he?”
Ever since Melody Fox said that her true identity was Ken Swanson’s wife, Fox, he had been interested in meeting Ken Swanson.
“He’s already on his way here. I was afraid of being late, so I came early.”
As Melody Fox spoke, he noticed a man sitting in the private room.
The man was in his early forties, but he was still wearing sunglasses in the room. He seemed to have been sizing her up since she entered.
Moreover, it could be seen that this person’s identity was not ordinary. He exuded an oppressive aura.
Melody Fox did not want to guess the other party’s identity. He asked Liu Guangrui directly, “This is?”
“This is one of my friend’s special assistants. His surname is Fang.”
As Liu Guangrui spoke, he said in embarrassment, “It happened so suddenly, so I didn’t have time to tell Miss Fox that a guest had come. Please forgive me.”
Melody Fox nodded slightly and asked, “Did you especially come to look for me?”
The man stood up and greeted her symbolically.
“Doctor Fox, I heard from CEO Liu that your medical skills are very superb. Coincidentally, this is my boss’s territory, so I specially came over to ask you if it’s convenient for you to treat my boss?”
Even so, the other party did not seem to have any intention of pleading. It seemed that giving Melody Fox the chance to see his boss was already a huge favor.
Melody Fox frowned slightly.
However, because of Liu Guangrui, he did not flare up. He maintained his politeness and asked, “May I know who your boss is…?”
“When you get there, you’ll know who my boss is.”
The man was so arrogant that he almost looked at her with his nose.
Liu Guangrui felt a little embarrassed. After all, Melody Fox was his benefactor. He did not like men treating Melody Fox with such a casual attitude.
He turned around and reminded the man with a dark expression, “Special Assistant Fang, this Miss Fox is my wife’s savior. Please pay attention to your attitude.”
Special Assistant Fang restrained himself a little and said, I’m sorry, I’m a straightforward person. I won’t beat around the bush. Doctor Fox, please don’t take offense.
Although he apologized, Melody Fox did not see any apology on the other party’s face.
Since the other party refused to reveal his name, Melody Fox no longer tried to be tactful. He said bluntly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Fang. I’m a doctor. In my opinion, I don’t have any medical relationship with your boss, so forgive me for not being able to treat him.”
Special Assistant Fang’s expression suddenly darkened. “Doctor Fox, are you not giving me face?”
“I told you, it’s just because I don’t have any medical relationship with your boss. I think since your boss has a high status, he will definitely be able to find a better doctor than me.”
“Hmph!”
The other party snorted from the tip of his nose. He did not look at her anymore and directly cupped his hands to bid farewell to Liu Guangrui.
“Director Liu, the doctor you found doesn’t look like much but thank you for your concern for my boss. We’ll put today’s meal on our tab. Consider it as me and my boss
celebrating your wife’s discharge. I still have something on, so I’ll take my leave first.”
After Special Assistant Fang finished speaking, he turned around and left.
“Special Assistant Fang, wait! Miss Fox’s medical skills are really superb. Wait a moment..”
However, Special Assistant Fang did not listen to Liu
Guangrui at all. He quickly walked out of the private room.
“Special Assistant Fang…”
Liu Guangrui wanted to chase after him but was stopped by Melody Fox.
“Mr. Liu, don’t waste your energy. I’m really not fated with his boss. This thing can’t be forced.”
Liu Guangrui stopped in his tracks and said apologetically,” I’m really sorry, Miss Fox. I didn’t expect Mr. Ge’s
subordinates to be so arrogant and make you suffer.”
“If I had known earlier, I would have brought you to see Old Master Ge directly. It’s just that I happened to bump into Special Assistant Fang patrolling the restaurant today, so I asked him to come over and have a chat with you.”
“But, Miss Fox, I really didn’t mean to embarrass you. I just thought that since you have such superb medical skills at such a young age, you should have a broader future. That’s why I wanted to introduce you. I didn’t expect that I would backfire.”
Melody Fox shook his head.
“It’s fine. It’s not a grievance. Many people do have some inflexible impression of me. After all, I’m indeed too young.
You don’t have to blame yourself. I won’t take this matter to heart.”
“That’s true. Who would have thought that you would have such superb medical skills at such a young age? I’m relieved that you don’t blame me.
Melody Fox nodded and asked about that person’s identity.
“You mentioned Old Master Ge just now… Are you the president of the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce, Ge Pingchuan?”
“Exactly.”
Liu Guangrui asked in surprise, “You know Old Master Ge?” “I don’t really know him. It’s just that two days ago, I happened to have another patient and hoped that I could visit him, so I roughly guessed that the person you were talking about was him.”
Chapter 1104
“Yes.” Liu Guangrui nodded and said, “I’m indeed talking about the president of the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce. In the early years, my company was also under the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce. Later on, I went independent. After that, Old Master Ge also gave me a lot of help, so I thought of recommending him to you to expand your connections. On the other hand, I also wanted to see if you could treat him. After all, he was once my president and benefactor.” However, he did not expect that this perfect opportunity would be ruined by Assistant Fang, who was under Elder Ge.
“Mr. Liu, you don’t have to worry too much. For Special Assistant Fang to treat me like this, I think Old Master Ge has already found an expert who can treat him. Otherwise, even if it’s a last resort, his attitude towards me shouldn’t be like this.”
“If that’s the case, it’s still alright. At least Old Master Ge can be treated. Otherwise, once he leaves, the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce will definitely cause turmoil, and even affect the entire economy of the capital circle.”
Liu Guangrui sighed and said, “I just don’t know if the person he found is reliable or not. What’s his background?” Melody Fox smiled slightly.
She had already guessed who Old Master Ge was looking for.
Ulric Swanson.
Even Liu Guangrui knew that Old Master Ge was sick, which meant that the news had already spread over the past two days.
Ulric Swanson had the trump card, Jennie Taylor. It was impossible for him not to use it.
This was also one of the main reasons why Special Assistant Fang dared to treat her like this.
As for the other reason, it was naturally because Special
Assistant Fang did not think that a young lady like her could have good medical skills.
Perhaps he felt that he could cure Liu Guangrui’s wife because of luck.
“Mr. Liu, you don’t have to worry too much. A person like Old Master Ge must have extraordinary medical skills.”
“That’s true, but it’s a pity that I didn’t let you get to know Old Master Ge. Although he’s a little stubborn, once he chooses someone, he will trust him unreservedly and treat him well.”
Melody Fox shrugged.
“I’m not from the Beijing circle to begin with, so it doesn’t matter if I know Old Master Ge or not. However, thank you for thinking about me like this, Mr. Liu.”
Liu Guangrui smiled. “You’re my wife’s benefactor, so you’re my benefactor. Naturally, I have to treat you well. Otherwise, wouldn’t I become an ungrateful person?”
At that time, someone knocked on the door of the private room. “Please come in.”
As soon as Liu Guangrui finished speaking, Aaron Berg pushed the door open for Ken Swanson.
Melody Fox looked up and met Ken Swanson’s gaze. Their eyes were filled with gentleness.
“Mr. Swanson, you’re finally here.”
Liu Guangrui immediately stood up to welcome him.
“We haven’t seen each other in a long time, have we?” “Uncle Liu, you’re welcome. Just call me by my name.”
Liu Guangrui did not stand at the ceremony and chatted with Ken Swanson.
“It’s all thanks to your wife this time. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t know what to do. You know that your sister-in-law and I fought our way here. She’s my spiritual pillar. If she falls, I won’t have anything to live for. The two children will also become pitiful children without a mother.”
Ken Swanson also said politely, “It’s also because of Aunt Liu’s good fortune is that she’s not destined to die. With just this calamity, everything will definitely be smooth sailing in the future and she’ll live a long life.”
Liu Guangrui laughed loudly and the two of them chatted happily.
Liu Guangrui’s attention quickly shifted to Melody Fox.
“But why hasn’t there been any news about your marriage? If Miss Fox hadn’t mentioned it, I really wouldn’t have known that she was your wife.
Ken Swanson planned to communicate with Liu Guangrui, so he didn’t hide it and told him about Melody’s situation in the Swanson family.
“Melody didn’t have a mother since he was young. After he had a stepmother, he was sent to the countryside to be raised. His life was very difficult. It was precisely because of this that my father still couldn’t accept her. You know my father’s personality.”
Liu Guangrui sighed and said empathetically, “It’s
understandable. My wife was also not accepted by her family because of her ordinary status. It was only when the elders in her family passed away that her life became better. People in our circle indeed have too many choices. However, someone as outstanding as Miss Fox will definitely be recognized by Mr. Ramon sooner or later.”
Perhaps because their experiences were similar, Liu Guangrui felt closer to Ken Swanson.
“I’ve watched you grow up. I also know that the rumors about Silverlake must be exaggerated.”
Speaking of rumors, it was naturally about Ken Swanson crippling Ulric Swanson’s legs.
Ken Swanson: It’s Rare To Act Pitiful
“There are very few people who believe me. I’m very touched that Uncle Liu could say this. That matter was indeed not my doing. I won’t say anything else. Let me toast you!”
“Good!”
As they toasted each other, Liu Guangrui quickly established his faction and expressed his stand.
“If you need me, Liu Guangrui, in the future, just let me know. Although I’m old and can’t compare to you young people, I still have some connections and family background. I won’t watch as you, the eldest son of the first wife, lose to that scheming person.”
These words were already very direct.
Ken Swanson raised his glass again.
“Thank you, Uncle Liu. Let me toast you again! In the future, I will definitely not forget your kindness.”
“You’re welcome. Miss Fox is my benefactor. Even if it’s not for you, I should stand on her side.”
After dinner, the two of them chatted a lot and had a deep conversation. They had finally established an alliance.
Liu Guangrui had always been neutral between Ken Swanson and Ulric Swanson. Now, he had completely made his choice.
Under the bright moon, the dinner finally ended.
Liu Guangrui was a little drunk, so he got into the car and left.
Melody Fox and Ken Swanson then got into their cars.
On the way, Melody Fox brought up what happened before Ken Swanson arrived.
Ken Swanson’s black eyes were filled with coldness.
“You’re just an assistant, yet you dare to give you attitude. You’ve really been with Old Master Ge for too long. A dog actually treats itself as a human.”
Melody Fox smiled gently.
“It’s rare to hear you scold someone. Say a few more words. I like it.”
Ken Swanson glanced at her helplessly.
“Don’t make fun of me. Only you can tolerate it. If it were me, I definitely wouldn’t tolerate being ignored by a mere assistant.”
“Come on, you’re a lot more tolerant than I am. You’re the type to treat as someone who doesn’t bat an eyelid and takes revenge after the fact.”
“Am I as bad as you say?”
“I’m being subtle.”
Ken Swanson pinched her face and said, “But you’re right. I do like to settle scores later. Don’t worry, I’ll make that kid suffer.”
Melody Fox did not care what would happen to Special Assistant Fang. He got down to business. “Since he dared to treat me like that, it’s obvious that Old Master Ge has already found a doctor. If I’m not wrong, Jennie Taylor should be in Insterimond by now.”
“You’re right. My people have detected that Ulric Swanson is here too.”
“Oh? What Fox?”
Chapter 1105
Ken Swanson replied, “Just this afternoon, my people have been watching them. So far, they haven’t gone to the Ge family’s house.”
Melody Fox nodded and said, “Then I have to remind Mr. Ou. I’ve already given Zuo Ye the life-saving pill. I wonder if Zuo Ye has given it to Old Master Ge.”
“Just say it. We need the support of the Jingbei Chamber of Commerce.”
“Yeah.”
Melody Fox was not a person who liked to delay. He immediately used his spare phone to send a message to Zuo Ye.
This phone would not be monitored, so there was no need to worry that Ulric Swanson would find out.
After the message was sent, Zuo Ye replied almost instantly.
“Alright, Miss Fox. I’ll talk to Old Ge and say that this is a heart-protecting pill that Mr. Ou specially requested for him. It won’t implicate you.”
Melody Fox was relieved and told Ken Swanson that he had gone to see Orek today.
“Not only did he give me a token that symbolizes his identity, but he also gave me a villa. I checked on the way to the restaurant just now and found that not only did he give me the key, but he also directly registered the house under my name.”
Ken Swanson observed the expression on Melody Fox’s face. He could not help but be puzzled when he saw that she did not look happy at all.
“The villa is only a small sum of money, but that token can be said to directly represent him. In this way, the entire Ou Jing can be at your disposal. His wife, Eliza, has always wanted that token, but she hasn’t gotten it yet. Shouldn’t you be happy? Why… don’t you seem very happy?”
Melody Fox shook his head.
“It would be a lie to say that I’m not happy. With the token, I have more power. But… don’t you think that Orek treats me a little too well?”
As he spoke, Melody Fox was afraid that Ken Swanson would misunderstand, so he added, “I’m not saying that Orek is interested in me. I’m not that narcissistic. I don’t think it’s a big deal to give me a villa. It’s just a villa. To Orek, it’s just a drop in the ocean. But the token… is too expensive.”
“Orick was generous to begin with. I think it’s reasonable for him to give you this token. Without you, he might have died on the operating table that day. A token is nothing compared to his life.”
“Is that so? Then maybe I’m really thinking too much. I just feel that both he and Zuo Ye are a little too good to me. Look at Liu Guangrui. I also saved his wife. He’s also very good to me, but his kindness seems more normal.”
“People are different, but if you think so, we really have to keep a distance from him. What if he has other motives?”
“Yes, I think so too.”
“However, based on my understanding of Orek, there’s a high chance that he doesn’t have any other motives. Although he owns countless giant companies, his personality is still very good. He’s not the kind of person who likes to scheme. Besides, to him, there’s nothing about you that he wants to scheme against.”
“True.”
“But there’s nothing wrong with being cautious. However, since he gave you a token, you should keep it well. In the future… even if anything happens to me, this token is enough for you to live a good life.”
Melody Fox frowned.
“Don’t say such ominous things!”
“Hahaha, have you become so superstitious? If the heavens really had eyes, those evil people would have been punished by the heavens long ago.”
Melody Fox did not say anything. Instead, he turned to look out of the car window.
She was indeed not a superstitious person in the past.
However, as someone who had been reborn and felt that supernatural power personally, she had to believe that there was really such a thing as “going to the sky”.
“What are you thinking about?”
“No… I’m just thinking that the heavens might not be as heartless as we think. There are many things that might really be predestined.”
“Perhaps. Perhaps we are destined to be together.”
Melody Fox smiled and leaned his head on Ken Swanson’s shoulder.
How good would it be if she had chosen Ken Swanson in her previous life?
Those dark betrayals would not appear in her life.
“Sleep for a while. You don’t seem to be in good spirits for the past two days. I wonder if you’ve recovered from my illness.”
Melody Fox knew that she was in a bad state because her body was detoxifying, but she still wanted to give Ken Swanson a surprise, so she only said, “Maybe she’s still a little unaccustomed to the environment. I’m fine, don’t worry. If something happened, I would have treated myself long ago.”
“Medicine is not autonomous. If you feel uncomfortable, let me know in Room IFox.”
“Okay, I know.”
Ken Swanson’s heart ached as he hugged Melody Fox to prevent her head from sliding off his shoulder.
Melody Fox was not sleepy at the moment, but leaning on Ken Swanson gave him an inexplicable sense of security.
Similarly, Fox, Ken Swanson used his other hand to open his phone.
With a casual swipe, he saw Melody Fox’s Halcyon paintings.
The eagle that seemed to have a real-life appeared in their sight. Ken Swanson felt a sense of pride.
“Looks like you were in the limelight yesterday.”
“Sort of. I can be considered half a teacher at Insterimond University now.”
“That’s my wife.”
“How is it? Do you feel threatened?”
Ken Swanson did not deny it and nodded calmly. “Yes.”
As a result, Melody Fox did not know how to respond. His cheeks were also slightly red.
In her previous life, when she was with Ulric Swanson, Fox, Ulric Swanson always liked to use words to suppress her when she was in the limelight. Now, she knew that this method was called PUA.
For someone like Ken Swanson, who was not stingy with his praises for her, that was a positive relationship.
“If we go back this time, I think the old man will definitely look at you in a new light. I’m thinking, why don’t we get Fox weddings this year? Only by holding a wedding can we prevent other men from coveting you.”
“Other men”, Melody Fox knew what he meant.
She looked up and explained seriously, “Although I don’t know what’s going on with Ming Yiheng, I really don’t have any romantic feelings for him.”
“I know.” Ken Swanson kissed her forehead lightly. “I believe you. You already have a husband like me. You won’t like other men anymore.”
Melody Fox chuckled.
“You’re really narcissistic.”
“It’s because he’s confident in your judgment.”
“Tsk!”
“Then I’ll take it as your tacit agreement to hold a wedding with me this year?”
“Is that a proposal?”
“We’re married.”
A hint of disappointment flashed past Melody Fox’s eyes, but he quickly perked up. “Then we’ll do as you say and hold the wedding this year.”
“Alright,” Ken Swanson agreed, but he had already memorized Melody Fox’s reaction in his heart.
She wanted a proposal.
What could he do?
Of course, he had to satisfy her!
If he didn’t dote on his wife, who should he dote on?
