Chapter 84
Upon thinking of Melody, Russell’s teeth itched with anger.
He couldn’t understand it. Back then, Wilona was known as the number one beauty in the country and also founded the Justalion Group. She could be said to be a being with both beauty and wisdom.
How could the daughter she gave birth to be ugly and foolish, and on top of that, only cause trouble!
Russell but his teeth and said, “Instruct everyone, before the people from the Swanson family come to make trouble, don’t give Melody anything to eat. We must show some attitude so that the Swanson family can vent their anger.”
Yolanda had already planned to do this, but in front of Russell, she still pretended to be distressed, “We don’t know how many days Margaret can hold on. If she can still hold on for ten days or half a month, wouldn’t Melody starve to death? Why not give her a little something to eat?”
Russell shook his head. “You are just too kind–hearted! She made a mistake, and it is right to be punished. Besides, if she could really starve to death, it would be great! She would be making up for her crimes!”
Yolanda listened to Russell’s words, and her heart was already full of joy.
This time, Melody had truly lost all the fatherly love from Russell. As long as the Fox family could get through this disaster. Mabel would become the only young lady of the Fox family.
At that time, if she used the engagement to threaten, the Swanson family would have to obediently marry Mabel into family
Everything was developing in a good direction,
their
Yolanda nodded with a pretense of reluctance. “Well, let her be hungry for a few days first. It’s good to teach a naughty child
a lesson.”
Russell became even more disgusted with Melody when he heard this.
“At the age of getting married, how can she still be a child? Look at Mabel. Has she caused me any trouble over the years?”
Yolanda quickly comforted Russell, but in her heart, she was a bit guilty.
In fact, over the years. Mabel had developed the full temper of anoble young lady and had caused a lot of trouble, but each time, Yolanda would help Mabel deal with it without telling Russell, so Russell thought Mabel had been worry–free since she
was young
In this way, three days passed, and the door of the abandoned garage was never opened. Melody stayed in the dark for three days.
As she had anticipated, no one in the Fox family gave her food.
She opened the water and compressed biscuits she had bought in advance and ate sparingly every day.
But even though she was already very economical, as time passed, the water and biscuits had all been eaten up.
It was not that she didn’t want to bring more, but bringing more would be discovered.
On the third day, she was so thirsty that it felt like her throat was on fire, but she endured it
She calculated the time. Tomorrow would be the last day. She just needed to held on for this one more day.
Melody bit her lip tightly and didn’t knock on the door for help.
Chapter 84
There wouldn’t be anyone coming anyway. It was better to sat
save her strength and conserve her energy.
But staying in the dark for so long, coupled with the extreme lack of food and water, by the fourth day, she didn’t even have the strength to meditate. She could only lie on the cold, damp ground, her mind starting to feel delirious.
As a doctor, she was very clear that she was dehydrated and catching a cold, and upon touching her forehead, it seemed she was starting to have a fever as well.
If someone from the Swanson family didn’t come soon, she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to hold on much longer.
Meanwhile, at the Swanson family, just as Melody had said when she left the Swanson family four days ago, after the second course of treatment began. Margaret would vomit blood every time she took her medicine, but each time she vomited blood, her spirit was better than the last.
Ramon was initially worried that the vomiting of blood indicated the disease was getting worse, until he watched as Margaret’s bloated belly, which was as big as a balloon, slowly deflated, and her spirit became more and more radiant, his hanging heart gradually settled.
By the morning of the fourth day, when Margaret got up to use the bathroom, she lifted her clothes and was surprised to find that her stomach was no longer swollen, almost the same as before she got sick
Margaret exclaimed with joy like a child. “My stomach, my stomach…”
The servant, hearing the noise, thought Margaret’s condition had worsened and hurriedly pushed the door open
After understanding the situation, the servants were also so excited that tears filled their eyes, and they rushed to inform Ramon of the good news.
Ramon had originally planned to stay in Silverlake for only two days and then leave, but because he was worried about Margaret’s condition, he postponed all his travel plans and handled his official duties in his study.
Upon hearing the servant’s report, he immediately showed his joy, leaving behind the laptop that was still in a video conference, and rushed to Margaret’s room
By the time he arrived. Ken had already received the news first and was asking Margaret, “Are you still feeling any discomfort? Such as shortness of breath, lack of energy, and so on?”
“No, I’m doing very well. I felt like I could run yesterday.” Margaret, who had a good sense of humor, joked while being happy. Today, I am even better. Maybe I can go out now and run a marathon”
“Grandma… Ken looked helpless, but he was happy inside.
Margaret’s willingness to joke again indicated that she was truly on the mend.
Seeing this, Ramon also revealed a look of relief.
Feeling ignored, Ramon lightly coughed to assert his presence and said, “I didn’t expect Melody’s medical skills to be truly impressive. Mom, once you’re feeling better, we’ll visit her to express our gratitude and apologize for my previous mistrust.”
“There’s no need to wait Today just happens to be the fourth day Melody mentioned. Since she isn’t here, I’ll go see her myself and have her take my pulse again.”
Eager to get out, Margaret instructed the servant to find her clothes for going out.
She had been cooped up in her room for half a year, and no one wanted to go outside and see the world more than her, and no one was more grateful to Melody.

After all, when she thought she was pregnant, she had even contemplated suicide and was prepared to act on it.
Now, she felt like she had been brought back from the dead She must personally thank Melody.
Ramon was still concerned about Margaret’s health, beat under her insistence he could only nod in agreement
“Then, Mom, you should get ready and dress up. It’s been a longtime since you’ve done your hair and makeup. I prepare some gifts for the Frax family”
“Alright, give more! Dont let them think we’re stingy Margaret specifically instructed. “Especially the gift for Melody, it should be the most generous
“Yes, I understand Ramon needed, then looked at Ken and said, “You come with me to buy the gift. You’re close to her. better at choosing some things the might like
“Okay Ken rarely didn’t give his father a stern look, clearly in a good mood as well
News of Margaret’s recovery quickly reached Astrid and Ulric’s ears.
During this time, Astrid had been busy finding doctors to treat Ulric’s leg ailment, and thinking Margaret was sure to die, so she didn’t pay attention to this dying person at all.
Une had the same mindset. He didn’t even bother to pretend like before, not even visiting Margaret these past few days
When they received the butler’s call, Astrid and Ulric were meeting with a very authoritative orthopedic doctor in the
udry.
