Chapter 112
Mabel had seen this card a few times, but this was the first time she held it herself.
The pass was black and had a silver–gray wolf head printed on it. It looked especially treacherous.
It was said that this was a pass that her mother had asked someone to buy at a high price. One could enter the underground black market in Silverlake with it.
At this moment, a small sound came from the bedroom.
Her mother was awake!
Mabel was shocked. She quickly closed the safe and placed the pass in her pocket. Then, she walked toward the bedroom
with a smile.
She asked, “Mom, you’re up?”
Yolanda nodded and said sleepily, “What are you doing here? Isn’t it almost time for class?”
“Yeah, I came to tell you I’m going to school,” said Mabel.
“There’s no need to inform me… I’m already satisfied with your intentions. Hurry up and go to school. I heard that you’ll be meeting a socialite from Insterimond today. If possible, you must make friends with that lady” Yolanda instructed.
Compared to Insterimond, Silverlake was still insignificant.
There were wealthy families everywhere in Insterimond. In comparison, those families in Silverlake were much inferior. If Mabel could build a connection with people from Insterimond, her net worth might increase.
“I know, Mom. I’ve already asked around. That socialite’s name is Janet. She seems to have just returned from studying abroad. Our etiquette teacher taught her etiquette in the past. She only agreed to come after the etiquette teacher begged her thousands of times. I’ll perform well and try to be good friends with her,” said Mabel
“It’s good that you know, Go quickly. Although it’s still early, the situation today is special. Go over early.” Yolanda urged.
Mabel replied, “Okay, Mom, I’m leaving! By the way, I don’t need a driver today. Perhaps I can use the excuse of not having a driver to hitch a ride with that Miss Murphy”
“Alright, it’s good that you know how to socialize. Go. As for Melody, don’t conflict with her for the time being. Your father’s attitude toward her is different now. Don’t make him unhappy. Yolanda reminded.
Mabel nodded and hurriedly went out.
Yolanda looked at Mabel’s back and felt that something was wrong. A bad feeling involuntarily surfaced in her heart.
“What’s wrong with me?” Yolanda asked herself silently. She couldn’t help but press her temples. The bad feeling slowly dissipated.
She thought she probably didn’t sleep well. Last night, to please Russell, she tossed and turned until the sky turned bright before she fell asleep.
She was getting on in years, and her energy in that area was not as good as before. When she woke up, her entire body was sore, as if her body was about to fall apart.
Yolanda sighed, covered herself with the blanket, and continued sleeping.
On the other side, Mabel had also called for a ride online. However, she did not go to the training school. Instead, she went

to the black market.
At the same time, Melody arrived at the gate to Silverlake Building’s shopping mall.
Block A of Silverlake Huilding gathered top international luxury brands and many famous brands of the country. The people who shopped here were either rich or noble.
Melody was about to enter when she was stopped by the security guard at the door.
“Kid, if you’re not shopping, you’re not allowed to visit this place The security guard looked at Melody in disdain, thinking. Not only is this girl dressed plainly, but she is also terribly ugly. If such a person enters, it will easily affect the shopping mood of the distinguished VIP guests.”
Melody was already used to people who despised her.
Without changing her expression, she explained to the security guard, Tm here to return the goods.”
“Return?” The security guard sneered and said, “Girl, aren’t you lying through your teeth? Putting aside the fact that the goods in Silverlake Building are not returnable, look at you. Did you buy your things from the Silverlake Building for real? If
don’t want to be chased out by the counter staff later, you’d better leave now to prevent yourself from being
you
embarrassed”
“You…” Melody frowned tightly.
Even used to it, she was a little anxious and angry now.
At this moment, a cold female voice sounded from behind. “Isn’t this Miss Fox?”
Melody subconsciously turned her head and met Janet’s half–smiling eyes.
“Miss Murphy Melody nodded politely and said, “What a coincidence to bump into you here.”
Janet smiled slightly in response.
The security guard’s eyes immediately lit up when he saw it was Janet. He went forward obsequiously. “Miss Murphy, what brings you here? Are you here to inspect? Why didn’t you tell them in advance so that I could tell them to prepare your favorite refreshments in advance?”
“No need. I’m just here to buy some gifts for someone,” said Janes.
Someone invited Janet to give an etiquette class to the socialites in Silverlake today. Naturally, she had to give some luxury goods to those socialites to make herself look rich and generous.
However, Janet did not expect to see Melody being rejected by the security guard on this trip.
“No wonder the weather is so good today. It turns out that there is such a good show to watch… With that in mind, there was a hint of mockery in Janet’s eyes, but she quickly hid it.
She pointed in Melody’s direction and asked, “What… is going on with her?”
The security guard had been too focused on looking at Janet to notice Janet’s conversation with Melody.
He quickly replied, “Here’s the thing, Miss Murphy. This girl didn’t buy anything from Silverlake Building but insisted on going in and said she came to return the goods. You know, the rule of the Silverlake Building is that goods are non- refundable once out of the counter. If she doesn’t even know this rule, she’s a liar.”
Seeing the disdain in the security guard’s eyes, Janet felt comfortable.
She tried her best to hide the smile on her face and turned to look at Melody from head to toe. “Miss Fox, have you come

here to buy things yourself? Honestly, the Silverlake Building belongs to my father. If you have indeed bought it, I can get the security guard to apologize. However, if you want to take advantage of the situation to cheat people, I’m sorry, but I might have to transfer you to the police station according to the company’s rules.”
When Melody heard this, she could not help but narrow her eyes. Here she comes again…..
In Melody’s previous life, as an enemy. Janet spared no effort to destroy her and defeat her.
In this life, now that Melody stood on Ken’s side, she thought she could turn enemies into friends with Janet.
However, it turned out that some people could only become enemies no matter how many times they got to know each other again.
A sharp and cold glint appeared in Melody’s eyes. She gave up the idea of becoming friends with Janet as soon as Janet said. the sentence of transferring her to the police station.
Since they could not be friends, they would continue to be enemies.
If she were to do it again, she would still be able to win against Janet.
“Miss Murphy, are you using your position to take revenge?” Melody asked.
Janet’s back stiffened as she felt the powerful aura emanating from Melody.
This aura was so familiar. It was very similar to Ken’s when he was angry.
But, how is this possible? Janet could not help but be stunned.
However, she quickly reacted. She said coldly. “Miss Fox, you’ve misunderstood. I’m not using my position to take revenge. I’m just doing my job. Or are you feeling guilty now, so you’re deliberately saying I’m using my position to take revenge?”
“Huh.” Melody smiled coldly and said. Thave nothing to feel guilty about. These things did come from your counter, but i don’t have time to waste with you now!”
With that, Melody turned to leave.
