Chapter 140 Yolanda smiled coldly. “That girl has many backers now. We have to get rid of them one by one. Then it’ll be much easier to deal with her. We don’t have to worry about Maria anymore. It’s only a matter of time. As for Margaret, we don’t have any solutions for the time being. Only this Wilmot Glory Beauty’s business has expanded to such a large extent. I’m not the only one who wants to deal with him.” The butler said, “You mean…” “Don’t go back yet. Let’s go to the Brewer family. Yolanda’s smile deepened. “Yes!” The car turned around and headed for the Brewer family, who owned the leading pharmaceutical company in the country. At the same time, Melody arrived at the entrance of a café called Forest Cafe. As soon as she entered, she saw a slightly familiar person. It was a middle–aged man who was wearing a mask and looked anxious. His exposed skin was covered in terrifying red bumps. In serious places, the red bumps even began to pus, as if they would break at any moment. Melody’s lips curled up slightly. She thought, He is indeed here “Miss, sir, would you like coffee or order food?” The waiter approached her and James with a professional smile. Melody said, “We are meeting someone here.” “Alright, you can scan the QR code on the table and order. The waiter nodded politely and turned to the counter. Melody’s hearing was very good. She had just taken a few steps when she heard the waiter whisper to another waiter, “What’s going on with our cafe today? Not only did a customer wearing a mask look like he had an infectious disease, but an ugly monster also came… I’m really worried that the two of them will scare away the other customers.” James’s hearing was also very good. When he heard this, he walked over, It was true that he did not like Miss Fox, but he could not accept random people talking shit about her. But James had only taken two steps when a hand grabbed the corner of his shirt. He subconsciously turned his head and saw Melody shaking her head at him. “Ignore them, lest they delay my business.” James frowned. “Miss Fox, I did it for you…” Melody said, “I know. I’m very grateful to you. But I’ve been used to hearing such words since I was young. As long as they don’t interfere with me, there’s no need to bother with them.” James looked at Melody in shock. He felt that she was really different from the socialites in Silverlake. If the socialites of Silverlake heard such words, they would definitely be angered. However, Melody did not seem to be -affected by those unsightly words at all. James thought. ‘Mr. Ken is the same as Miss Fox in this aspect Everyone in Silverlake thought that Ken had crippled Uric’s legs, but he knew that the truth was not like that. However, Ken did not defend himself or care. He continued to do what he wanted. Chapter 140 From the looks of it, Melody and Ken had a lot in common. While James was in a daze, Melody had already arrived in front of the man who the waiter said was “wearing a mask as if he had an infectious disease.” “Hello, Melody said calmly. The man was a little uncertain if Melody was the person he was waiting for. After all, when they met in their line of work, they would definitely be wearing masks. He had almost never seen anyone like this young lady who did not even wear any disguise. However, when he saw Melody take the initiative to greet him and recognized her voice, the middle–aged man immediately confirmed that this was the young lady who had come to his stall to buy things. “It’s really you.” The man quickly stood up and did not forget to flatter her. “As expected of a student taught by a medical professor. You can meet people openly, unlike someone like me, who can’t show my true face.” Melody said, “Understood. Your profession is special.” When James heard their conversation, he could not help but look at Melody in surprise. He thought, ‘One moment ago, she was a doctor from Herbathrive, and the next moment, she is a student taught by some medical professor. How many fake identities does she have? Who is this man covered in red bumps? Howeyer, it was not appropriate for James to ask now. He just stood beside her expressionlessly. Melody pulled out a chair and sat down. She pretended to be surprised and said, “I was just passing by today. I didn’t expect you to really come.” “That’s right! Miss, you’re really amazing! I was really poisoned Do you have any way to treat me? My identity is special, so I can’t go to the hospital to see a doctor. I can only rely on you… The man looked at Melody with eyes filled with desire, as if he were treating her as his savior. Melody raised her eyebrows slightly. It would be strange if this roan was not poisoned. After all, she was the one who poisoned him. “I need to check your situation.” Melody waved at the man. The man immediately reached out his hand. Seeing this, James could not help but frown and remind her, “Miss Fox, do you need to wear a glove? What if it’s contagious… “Don’t worry, it won’t be contagious. Don’t you know my medical skills?” Melody said as she pulled the man’s hand. It had been a long time since she had made poison. She did not know if the dosage was accurate. About a minute later, Melody confirmed that she had used just the right amount of poison on this man. She retracted her hand and said, “Your poison is a little complicated. Although I can treat it, the treatment might take a long time.” “It’s alright!” The man quickly said, “It doesn’t matter if it takes a long time. As long as you can help me detoxify the poison, money and time are not a problem!” Melody nodded, took out a ceramic bottle from her … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 140” »

Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker
I’m Melody Fox, once deemed an ugly duckling.
In my past life, I was cruelly betrayed, my heart brutally ripped from my chest by my once-beloved and my stepsister.
Reborn, I inadvertently rescued Ken Swanson, the wealthiest man in Halcyon, and found myself tangled in his intricate world. I was manipulated into remarrying, becoming a pawn in his elaborate plot. I feared the past would replay itself, yet he assured me that with him by my side, I would never suffer again.
On our wedding day, I cast aside my disguise, astounding everyone with my breathtaking beauty and exceptional medical prowess.
This time, I am not just surviving; I am seeking vengeance. I will reveal my true strength to those who once scorned me!
Chapter 139 A friend said. “Yolanda, I hope you can give us a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, we are no longer friends!” A woman said. “Explain. Yolanda” Faced with the questioning of the noble ladies, Yolanda was anxious and angry. Her entire face turned red. “I don’t know either…” However. Yolanda only panicked for a moment before she quickly calmed down and said, “Ladies, I’ll definitely find out what’s going on as soon as possible. I’m really sorry about today, but I promise that I’ll definitely give you an explanation.” The rich ladies couldn’t help but exchange glances. One of them said. “I’ll give you one day to figure out what’s going on. Otherwise no matter what you do in the future, don’t call us again. We won’t come see you again.” The others nodded in agreement This beauty salon was the most famous in Silverlake, and socialites loved to come here. Therefore, they often came to this place not only to do beauty treatments but also to maintain relations with people among their ranks.- If they had not heard from Yolanda that Mabel might marry into the Swanson family, they would not even want Yolanda’s explanation and would have cut ties with her. However, Mabel was only possible to marry into the Swanson family. If Yolanda was removed from this place, of course they would not give up this good place for Yolanda. The few of them did not stay any longer and left in their cars, leaving Yolanda standing there awkwardly. Her mind raced. She had never seen the boss of this beauty salon, let alone offended them and made them reject her. But suddenly, a name popped up in Yolanda’s mind, Melody She thought. This must be Melody’s doing. Ever since Melody returned, there has been no peace at home. It must be her Thinking of this. Yolanda’s expression became extremely ugly. She glanced at the shop assistant who was still wearing a professional smile. She gritted her teeth, took off the jade bracelet on her hand, and stuffed it into the shop assistant’s hand. “Young lady. I sounded a little anxious just now. I might have made you unhappy. Don’t mind me ” Although the shop assistant was just a receptionist, this beauty salon was very high–end. When the customers were in a good mood, they would often give her something, including some expensive luxury goods. Therefore, when Yolanda stuffed a bracelet into her hand, the shop assistant immediately recognized that this jade bracelet was worth a lot Why would I mind… The shop assistant did not refuse and naturally put the bracelet on her hand. After feeling the jade, the smile on the shop assistant’s face became more e sincere. Before Yolanda could speak, the shop assistant cleverly said, “Madam, do you want to know why our boss doesn’t let you in?” Yolanda said. “Yes! If you know anything, please tell me so that I can communicate with your boss.” 13 ||| Chapter 139 The shop assistant deliberated for a moment before saying. “Actually, we don’t know the exact reason either, but your situation is different from when others were blacklisted by the boss in the past. In the past, if there were customers w who blacklisted, the boss would only inform us in the internal group chat. However, this time, the boss came personally and informed all of us, as well as all the branches. The boss informed us of your name. Think about it carefully again. Did you unintentionally have a conflict with our boss, but you forgot?* “But… I’ve never even met your boss” Yolanda paused when she mentioned the boss of the beauty salon. Then, she asked “What’s your boss’s name? What does he look like?” The shop staff said, “Our boss’s surname is Wilmot Sherman.” “Wilmot!” Yolanda’s eyes widened. She recalled how Wilmot had brought Melody home and publicly exposed her for snatching Melody’s contract. Combined with today’s incident, Yolanda knew that her previous guess should have been 80% correct. This matter had something to do with Melody. That bitch! Yolanda cursed in her heart. However, she was more patient than Mabel. She nodded at the shop assistant and said. Thank you for telling me this. I know the general reason now! “It’s fine. It’s my duty. The shop assistant touched the jade bracelet on her wrist and smiled. Yolanda thanked her and quickly turned to leave the beauty salon. Coincidentally, the butler drove over to wait for her. When he saw Yolanda coming out so quickly, he asked in surprise, “Madam, you’re done so quickly today?” Under normal circumstances, Yolanda would definitely undergo a beauty treatment and a full–body spa service. It would take at least two to three hours to end. He didn’t know what was going on that day. The butler’s intuition told him that something was wrong. Sure enough, Yolanda’s expression was ugly as she said, “Glory Salon’s boss blacklisted me. The butler asked, “What? Why?” Yolanda looked at the butler and said, “Do you know the name of the boss of Glory Salon?” The butler said, “I don’t know about that… … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 139” »
Chapter 138 Before getting out of the car, Melody specially asked James, “Is there a back door here?” James answered. “Yes, although the casino is very secretive, it’s a gray industry after all, so just in case, there are many secret doors here to go out.” Melody nodded. “Then after we go in, bring me out through a secret door.” James opened his mouth slightly in surprise. He was about to ask when he remembered that Melody had said that someone was following her. James was not stupid. He immediately realized that Melody was trying to set the stalker up. She had deliberately come to the casino so that the other party could return with fake news and get rid of the stalker. It was a very smart move. Although it was not very brilliant, it was not like a girl from the countryside could think of a solution.. However, when he went to the countryside to investigate, he found out that Melody had indeed grown up in the countryside. Before coming to Silverlake, she had never even left her hometown. James thought, “Is she naturally intelligent? Or have I not investigated thoroughly enough?” “Did you hear that?” Melody asked again when she saw that James was lost in space. James immediately came back to his senses and nodded. “Understood.” She said, “Okay, go in.” Entry to the International Casino was very strict. Ordinary people could not enter at all. However, with James, the second–in–command leading the way, they almost didn’t need James to say anything. They passed through the first floor of the KTV on the surface and arrived at the International Casino on the second floor. Then, they left the International Casino through the secret door without stopping. At the same time, opposite the main entrance, the butler quickly dialed Yolanda’s number. Yolanda’s right eyelid kept twitching today. It was said that this meant that trouble was coming. Just as she thought of that, the butler had called. Her heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously thought that the butler had been discovered. She couldn’t help but hesitate if she should answer this call. The butler was very smart. Even if he was caught, he would definitely think of an excuse. It was impossible for him to betray her. At the thought of this, Yolanda did not hesitate and picked up the call. “Mrs. Fox! Big news!” As soon as the call went through, the butler’s excited voice came through. Yolanda asked in shock. “What big news?” Because the butler was too happy, he was a little arrogant and deliberately kept her in suspense. “Mrs. Fox, guess what I found out?” Yolanda asked, “What?” 1/3 The butler said, “She went in International Karaokel When she heard that Melody had only gone to the KTV. Yolanda could not help but pursed her lips. “What kind of big news is that? Don’t young people like to go to such places?” This was not something that could be used against Melody. The butler said, “I guess you don’t know.” Yolanda asked, “Don’t know what?” The butler said. “I also heard from others that there’s actually another floor below International Karaoke, but it’s not a KTV. It’s a casino. Moreover, this International Casino is the largest one in Silverlake. If Mr. Fox finds out that Miss Melody went to the casino, don’t you think he’ll be angry?” Yolanda’s eyes instantly lit up. “Are you telling the truth?” The butler said. “It’s absolutely true. I even took photos and left evidence! When Mr. Fox asks, if Miss Melody quibbles, we’ll go to the International Casino to verify it. She won’t have anything to say.” Yolanda stood up happily. “Great job!” The butler said, “Thank you for your praise. Mrs. Fox. It’s my honor to help you solve your problems.” Yolanda felt even happier. “Alright, it’s enough that we have something on her. Come back now, lest she finds out. It won’t be worth it if she thinks of a countermeasure in advance” The butler said, “Yes, Mrs. Fox. I’ll be right back After the call ended, Yolanda was in a good mood. It seemed that her right eyelid was twitching because she didn’t sleep well, not because something bad was about to happen. She happily contacted a few of her rich friends for beauty treatments. However, when they reached the beauty salon, they were stopped outside. “You’re not letting us in? We’re your VIP customers! Don’t you want to work anymore?” Mrs. Mills questioned the shop staff who stopped them with an ugly expression. Yolanda’s expression wasn’t any better. Although the Fox family was on the decline and the Justalion Group was losing money. Now, they still had some foundation. She had never been rejected by a beauty salon before. The shop assistant had obviously received professional training. In the face of the customer’s aggressive attitude, she still had a smile on her face and said politely. This is our boss’s rule. As long as Mrs. Fox comes with someone, our shop will not provide any service. So… I’m sorry.” … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 138” »
Chapter 137 The old man agreed to Melody’s request without thinking. “Dont worry, I won’t tell him. That kid is always worried that I will be deceived. If I tell him about you, he might think that you’re a liar. So in order to make him nag at me less, I’ll definitely promise not to tell him!” Melody could not help but laugh. “You….” The old man was exactly the same as in her previous life. He was simply an old urchin. The old man said, “By the way, young doctor, I still don’t know your name?” Melody said. Just call me Melody The old man said, “Okay, Melody, just call me Ford.” Melody said, “Alright, Ford. I’ll prepare the medicine for you according to the prescription. From tomorrow onwards, I’ll prepare the medicine and send it over.” Ford said, “Alright, alright. Thank you. The Hervathrive is really good. When my waist recovers, I’ll definitely work hard to advertise for you!” The two of them chatted for a while before Melody brought James out. After Ford closed the door, James asked anxiously, “Miss Fox, who is this old man? Melody glanced at James and asked, “His name is Ford Nelson. Who do you think he is!” James stopped in his tracks and asked in surprise, “He’s Zack’s grandfather?” “Yes” Melody did not keep him in suspense anymore. She nodded and said, “That’s right. I found out that he had a back injury. As you know, I have some medical skills, so I took this opportunity to make Zack owe me a favor first. When we talk about poaching him in the future, there will be room for negotiation. At least, for Ford’s sake, Zach has to treat me to a meal James looked at Melody and was secretly shocked. Melody seemed to be smarter than he had thought. “Oh, right.” Melody looked at James and said. “Why did you suddenly come to look for me? Is there anything you need my help with from Ken?” “No…” James coughed dryly. He did not say that he had been punished and only said, “Mr. Ken said that you’ve been in a lot of trouble recently. In addition, the company doesn’t need me for the time being, so he asked me to come and help you. Melody nodded. “I do have a lot of things to do recently, and there might be more trouble. It’s good for you to help me.” James nodded. At this moment, Melody’s phone received a call. It was from the bodyguard hiding in the dark. She raised her eyebrows in surprise. After picking up the call, she lowered her voice and asked, “What’s wrong?” The bodyguard said, “Miss Fox, we realized that someone has been following you.” Melody asked, “Who is it? When did it start?” The bodyguard said, “We checked. It’s the butler of your house. He started when we left your house. At first, we thought that 1/3 we were just going the same way, but we saw him sneakily following us to South Alley just now, so we’re sure that he’s here to follow you.” A cold glint flashed across Melody’s eyes. She thought. Yolanda sent the butler to follow me? I thought that Yolanda would not make a move until something happened to Maria. It seems that she is always looking for an opportunity. She pursed her lips coldly and said, “I understand.” The bodyguard asked on the other end of the line. “Do you need us to arrest him?” Melody thought for two seconds and said, “There’s no need. Let him follow.” The bodyguard immediately replied. “Yes!” Melody hung up and told James the news sofily. James asked in surprise. “Then why don’t we just capture him?” Melody smiled and said. “She wants something on me. Just give it to her. Why are you so petty? Let’s take a taxi and leave.” James’s mind was filled with questions. He felt that Miss Fox, like Mr. Ken, liked to do things that he did not understand, However, James could not be bothered to really pour his heart and soul into Melody’s matter, so he let her be However, after taking a taxi, he heard Melody say to the driver, Sir, let’s go to the most famous gambling place in Silverlake, the International Casino.” James was drinking mineral water. When he heard this, he almost spat out the water. “Miss Fox, you…” Before James could finish, Melody interrupted him and asked. “Have you been there?” James lowered his voice and said in a voice that only they could hear. “Rather than saying that I’ve been there… Actually, Mr. Ken … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 137” »
Chapter 136 However, after the voice sounded, no one opened the door for a long time. Melody knew the reason, but she was not in a hurry. She just stood there patiently. About three to four minutes later, a sound came from behind the door. With a creak, the wooden door was pulled open. Behind the door stood an old man with white hair and a walking stick. The old man stared at Melody and asked in confusion, “Young larly, did you come to the wrong place?” Melody greeted him politely and gently, “Hello, sir. I didn’t come to the wrong place. I’m here to see you.” “See me?” The old man frowned. “Is it some hunter company looking for my grandson? Let me tell you, that child is very stubborn. Don’t even think about it” “Hunter?” Melody quickly reacted and said with a smile, “You mean a headhunting company, right?” It seemed like Zack had already told the old man that if these people came, he would reject them all. The old man tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying, “Yes, yes, it’s a headhunter. No matter if it’s a hunter or a headhunter, it’s impossible. Go back.” The old man was about to close the door. Melody hurriedly went forward to block the door and said, “Sir, I’m not from a headhunting company. Have you heard of the Herbathrive! I’m an employee there.” “Herbathrive?” The old man’s expression softened a little. He did not close the door but invited Melody in. After entering the door, she saw a small courtyard that was very clean. There were many beautiful birds. There was also a well in the courtyard, making the sultry air seem much cooler The old man invited her to sit on a stone bench by the well and sat opposite her. He asked, “I know about the Herbathrive. I went there before to get checked, but I never recovered, so I stopped going Why did they ask you to come? I remember my grandson saying that he had already paid for my medical fees. k through your medical records and realized “It’s not about the medical fees, Melody smiled and said, “I happened to that the doctor’s prescription for your diagnosis at that time was not good. He missed a few medicines, so I came to give you a follow–up. I hope I can help you. “You? Give me a follow–up” The old man looked incredulous. “The youngest doctor in your Herbathrive is your boss. You’re so young… and you actually are a doctor?” “Don’t look down on me.” Melody raised her head and lied through her teeth. “My master is the boss of our Herbathrive. I learned medicine from him since I was young, and now I’ve graduated. My medical skills are not inferior to the doctor who treated you back then.” The old man hesitated for a moment. In the end, he waved his hand and said. “There’s no need. Although my waist hurts, I’m already used to it. Instead of spending money for nothing, it’s better to suffer like this.” “Don’t worry.” Melody said. “It was our Herbathrive’s mistake last time, so we won’t charge you a single cent for the diagnosis and medical fees this time. We’ll treat you for free. Upon hearing the word “free“, the old man was finally willing to look her in the eye. “It’s really free? Not a single cent?” Melody smiled and said, “It’s not like you haven’t been to Herbathrive before. We’re such a big place. Why would we cheat 1/4 you of your money!” “That’s true…” The old man nodded. After thinking for a while, he finally agreed. “Alright, treat me!” Melody nodded and flipped open the diagnosis book she had printed at the headhunting company. “The last time you came to see a doctor, the doctor diagnosed you with arthritis, so most of the prescriptions were to help with that, right!” As Melody finished speaking, the old man looked at her with more trust. He nodded. “That’s right.” Hearing this, Melody heaved a sigh of relief. She had said all this based on her memories from her previous life. Just now, she was worried that she had remembered wrongly, but now, looking at the old man’s reaction, she should not have remembered wrongly. She closed the diagnosis and took out some equipment. “Let me check your current body first.” The old man stretched out his hand cooperatively. At this moment, footsteps sounded at the door. Melody thought it was Zack, but when she turned around, she realized that it was James. “Miss Fox, this is… Melody gave James a look to signal him to stop talking. Then, she turned around and introduced him to the old man. “This is my colleague. He’s also from the Herbathrive. Alright, I’ll check your body. The old man nodded and extended his hand again. James, who was at the door, was confused. However, he was someone who worked with Ken after all. He quickly reacted and walked to Melody’s side. After about a minute, Melody stopped the machine and said, “I roughly know, but I still need to verify it. Can you stand up straight?” “This… The old man said awkwardly, “It’s not that I don’t want to cooperate with you, but my back hurts when I straighten “Alright” Melody smiled and said, “You’ve already cooperated” “What?” The old man looked puzzled. Thaven’t stood up yet…” “You don’t have to stand up, Melody explained. The reason why you can’t bend over is because of the arthritis. In your case, it’s because you can’t straighten your back. This isn’t caused by arthritis but by a cold.” The man said, “Cold? I don’t have a cold… … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 136” »
Chapter 135 “Of course! Don’t you believe in my medical skills?” As Melody hailed a taxi, she held her phone and said, “However, I definitely won’t let his leg be cured” Ken asked, “Why? If you treat Ulric’s legs, you can immediately get a huge sum of money to treat your face.” Melody said, “You can think of it as me having a dark heart. I just don’t want to see someone I don’t like living well.” Ken was silent for another two seconds before continuing, “Don’t reveal your true identity, or it will be troublesome.” “Don’t worry, I’m not that stupid.” The call ended there. Melody said to the driver, “Sir, go to South Alley.” The driver said, “Alright!” At the same time, at the Swanson Group. James Deed had heard their conversation. He could not help but say worriedly, “Mr. Ken, do you really believe Miss Melody? What if she changes her mind and treats Mr. Uric for money?” “She won’t Ken’s expression was firm. James asked in surprise, “Why are you so sure?? Ken did not answer immediately. After a long time, he said. “Intuition” James was on the verge of vomiting blood. “Do you believe her just based on your intuition? If she really changes her mind and treats Mr. Uric’s leg, it will only create an even greater obstacle for you to take back the Pearly Antiques.” Ken glanced sideways at James. Then what do you think we should do now?” James hesitated for a second and said boldly, “In my opinion… we should get rid of Miss Fox directly to prevent future. trouble. If Miss Fox can really treat Mr. Uric’s leg, as long as she still exists, his leg will still have a chance to recover.” After saying that, James realized that Ken’s gaze seemed to be getting colder and colder. He was shocked and quickly lowered his head. T’m sorry. Mr. Ken. I went overboard…” Ken stood up and approached James step by step. He only stopped when he was a couple of feet away from James. How many years have you been with me?” Cold sweat broke out on James’s forehead. He knew that Ken did not like people to go against his wishes and take matters into his own hands. Hearing Ken’s question, he stammered, “Nine, nine years…” Ken asked, “Nine years. I thought you’d know me well enough after more than nine years Have I ever been wrong in my judgment of people?” “No!” James felt that something was wrong and immediately knelt down in front of Ken. “Mr. Ken, it’s all my fault. I was being a smartass. Please punish me!” Ken stared at James and did not say anything. He was silent until James could not hold it in anymore. Then, he said, “You’ve been acting abnormally recently. You seem to be… very hostile to Melody. Tell me the reason.” He was not a tyrant. He would not punish his subordinates for no reason. 1/4 James did not dare to say it at first, but after confirming that Ken really wanted to hear the truth, he chose his words carefully. “It’s true that I don’t like Miss Fox. There are two reasons. Firstly, I feel that you’re completely insulting your status by getting married to her. Secondly, it’s because… because…” Ken said, “Say it.” James gulped and said, “Because I feel sorry for Miss Murphy!” Ken frowned. “What does this have to do with her?” James boldly raised his head and said, “Mr. Ken, can’t you tell? Miss Murphyhas always liked you. She has sacrificed a lot for you… There are some things that you don’t know, but I know. Back then, Miss Murphy had acute gastroenteritis, and it happened to be the time when our company went public. For the sake of the company, she still worked on her computer during her hospitalization. As a girl, she took painkillers and dealt with documents… She only told me these things, but she never let me tell you.” Ken raised his eyebrows. “Continue,” James continued, “This is a private matter between you and Miss Murphy. I know that I don’t have the right to say those words. But for so many years, Miss Murphy has worked hard for you. I really can’t stand it… I think you should at least tell Miss Murphy why you registered your marriage with Miss Fox so that Miss Murphy can rest assured. “Tell her not to worry?” Ken raised his chin slightly. “Why would I need her to worry about my personal matters?” James was stunned. He could hear the determination in Ken’s tone. He looked at Ken in shock and said, “Mr. Ken… don’t you like Miss Murphy at all?” Ken’s eyes were dark as he said, “You’ve been with me for nine years, so you should know my style of doing things. If I had feelings for Janet, we would have been together long ago.” James was stunned. This was a situation that he had never expected. “I thought you were more or less in love with Miss Murphy…” Ken interrupted James and said, “She and I are just colleagues, or to be precise, she is my subordinate. And it will always be this relationship.” “Then… what about you and Miss Fox?” James knew that he had crossed the line today, so he simply asked. Ken said, “She’s different. She’s my Grandma’s benefactor, and she’s my benefactor. She’s different from Janet When James heard that Ken was not in love with Melody, he finally felt better. If Ken did not like Miss Murphy but Miss Fox, he would really suspect that Ken had misjudged. Ken’s tone turned cold again. “So, I don’t want to hear about geuing rid of Melody again, understand?” James quickly straightened his back and replied. Understood!” Ken’s cold expression softened a little. He would never allow himself to be involved in a romantic relationship. … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 135” »
Chapter 134 Ryan smiled disdainfully and said. “It’s not that you aren’t allowed to poach him, but it’s impossible to poach him.” As Ryan spoke, he said to his team leader not far away. “What are you doing? It’s her first day on the job, and you’re handing Zack’s project to her? What if she messes it up?” The team leader asked in shock, “Zack? Is it the Zack I know?” Ryan said, “Nonsense! How many Zacks are there in Silverlake? You’re too stupid! This is not a small matter. It’s not a tool you can use to please her!” The team leader was even more stunned. “No, no… We don’t have a project for Zack at all.” The other team members also looked over and discussed in whispers. One person said, “Zack? Our company is so small and has no influence at all. Who would look for our company to poach Zack Another person said. “Tm in charge of the project allocation. I didn’t receive any notice that someone wanted us to poach Zack “If there’s really such a project, we really shouldn’t hand it over to Miss Shi. Although she’s the princess… once this project is completed, our company will definitely shock the world.” Quiet! Ryan was like a big leader as he said accusingly to his team leader, “You can’t hand this project to him. You can redistribute it! If you can’t make the decision, I’ll go talk to Kayla Before he came, his mother had already told him that although the boss of the company was Russell, he did not care much about the matters here. Therefore, Kayla was in charge of all the matters in the company. The team leader said. “I didn’t give it to Miss Fox… To be precise I didn’t know about this project at all.” Ryan’s attitude was too aggressive. The team leader looked at Melody for help in fear. Melody frowned and said expressionlessly. “The company didn’t take on this project. I did. “You” Ryan laughed as if he had heard a joke and said. It’s your first day at work today. Without the company, who will let you poach Zack?” “You don’t have to worry about that,” Melody said as she turned around to continue writing the contract. Seeing this, Ryan did not believe Melody’s words even more. He went straight to Kayla and said, “Kayla, do you think Zack, such a big client, can be handed over to someone who doesn’t know anything Kayla originally didn’t want to care about Ryan and Melody, but she heard that it was related to Zack, so she came over. She asked the person who was in charge of the project assignment to get the recent project form. After carefully checking it, she said, “Our company indeed doesn’t have a project for Zacdk. This project… should be taken on by Miss Fox.” “What?” Ryan was surprised. “How is that possible? Who would be so stupid as to ask her to poach Zack?” Melody had already finished writing the contract and sent it to Ken. After she was done, she was in the mood to talk to Ryan. “Whether you believe it or not, that’s what happened.” 13 Ryan hated Melody’s tome the most as if she was talking to a fool At the same time, Ryan’s mind raced. He thought, Melody seems to have taken on this project personally, but I can’t miss such a good opportunity to make a fortune. Zack gritted his teeth and suddenly revealed a smile. “Cousin, you’ve just arrived in Silverlake and don’t know what kind of person Zack is. How about this? In order to ensure that your project is foolproof, I can help you poach Zack. However, after it’s done, we will split the commission into 30% and 70%. You know too little. I’m definitely the one who will contribute the most, so I’ll take 70% and you take 30%. How about that?” He thought. She is a country bumpkin, so she must be short–sighted. If I offer to help her, even if it is 30%, Melody will definitely agree! However, in the next second, Melody rejected him expressionlessly. “No need. I can do it alone.” Ryan said. “You… Melody said. “However, you can also join this project, but the final commission depends on your ability. If you can poach Zack. I’ll give you all the commission. I don’t want a single cent. How about that?” Ryan was overjoyed. “Are you telling the truth? “Of course it’s true.” Melody raised an eyebrow and said, “But if poach Zack, you need to leave the company immediately.” Based on Ryan’s personality, he would definitely make this company a mess. Melody had to count on this company many times in the future and did not want to be disturbed by Ryan. “Sure!” Ryan said arrogantly. You won’t be able to poach Zack you can poach him, not only will I resign immediately, but I’ll also kneel to you and call you Boss on the day I leave Melody’s lips curled up in amusement. “I didn’t expect you to have that kind of fetish. Alright, I promise you.” Ryan snorted coldly from the tip of his nose. “It’s useless to talk nonsense. Just wait to give me all the commission!” Ryan was very confident because he was in the same class as Zack in high school. Although the two of them did not interact much, he believed that Zack would give him face. Then tell me the price that the other party’s company quoted to Zack, as well as the information about the other party’s company. I’ll go look for Zack now.” Melody shrugged nonchalantly and said, “There’s no price. Zack can name any conditions. As for the other party’s company’s information… I can’t tell you because I don’t know either.” Ryan said. “Are you kidding me?” Melody stood up and said, “I’m telling the truth. Alright, I’m going out to work now. Best of luck With that, she patted Ryan’s shoulder and said good luck before striding out of the company. Ryan’s angry roar came from behind. “Melody, don’t got Tell me the truth! Melody said, “I’m telling the truth.” She was telling the truth because she didn’t know what Ken’s company was called. She only knew that it was related to Al Technology. However, Ryan clearly did not believe her and continued to ask, 2/3 … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 134” »
Chapter 133 Melody looked at Ryan’s expression and roughly knew what kind of person he was, She smiled and did not say anything. As she told Ken what she had found on the forum, she followed behind like Ryan’s sidekick. Soon, the team leader finished introducing the company and brought them to a meeting room. In the conference room, most of the company’s employees were present. The team leader had specially summoned them. “Everyone, welcome the two new employees, Melody Fox and Ryan Fox” Upon hearing their last names the employees finally understood why they had to put down their work to welcome new employees However, they wondered which of these two was closer to their Boss. Everyone present was experienced in the workplace. They knew what was going on and sized up the two of them carefully. “Alright, introduce yourselves,” the team leader said, giving Melody and Ryan time to talk. Melody was about to speak when Ryan beat her to it. “Hello, everyone. My name is Ryan Fox. I’m very happy to be able to work with you in the future. I’m an easygoing person, but when it comes to work, I am very professional. Therefore, I hope that in the future, everyone can do their best to complete the task at hand…” Melody almost laughed when she heard that. She thought, “How is this an introduction? It is obvious that he is acting like the big boss coming to inspect the company and pressuring the employees. After more than ten minutes, Ryan finally finished his introduction and reminded Melody considerately, “Melody, it’s your turn now He talked like he was talking to a subordinate. The employees present exchanged glances. Some communicated with their eyes, while others whispered, “Looks like this is the one who’s closest to the boss,” Another person said, “Yes, I’ll curry favor with him more in the future. Maybe I can work less.” Melody took in the situation. She raised her eyebrows in amusement. Then, her gaze swept across the entire conference room and she said calmly, “Hello, everyone. My name is Melody Fox. Russell Fox is my father, and this is my cousin. Although we are here because of our family, we will work hard to keep up with you in the future. Please bear with us.” As soon as she said this, the meeting room fell silent. Ryan had spent a lot of effort to mislead everyone present, making them feel that he w closer to the boss. Now that Melody had directly revealed their identities, his expression was even uglier than if he had eaten a pile of shit. He thought, ‘Is this wornan stupid? No one would point out that they joined the company through illegitimate ways” However, Melody did not even look at Ryan. She clapped her hands twice and said, “We’ve wasted everyone’s time just now. As compensation, I’ll buy everyone coffee today.” As soon as she finished speaking, cheers immediately sounded in the conference room. There were also some mischievous ones who directly shouted, “Long live Her Highness the Princess!” 1/3 Everyone completely ignored Ryan. Ryan’s expression turned even uglier as he clenched his fists tightly. He thought, If this continues, how am I going to survive in the company? Why didn’t Mom tell me that Melody, this country bumpkin, has also come to the company? Ryan was furious. When everyone in the meeting room had finally dispersed, he took a few steps forward to stop Melody. who was about to leave. He glared at her and questioned, “Melody! What are you doing?” Melody pretended to be confused and asked, “What are you doing?” “You…” Ryan gritted his teeth. “You shouldn’t have said your identity directly. Don’t you think your actions will affect your father’s reputation?” “My father’s reputation?” Melody looked at Ryan deeply and stopped smiling. “Cousin, are you afraid of affecting my father’s reputation, or are you afraid that your status in the company is inferior to mine!” Now that his secret thoughts had been exposed, Ryan looked embarrassed. Exasperated he denied it. “You’re talking nonsense! I didn’t even think that.” “Is that so!” Melody took a step forward and said in a domineering manner, “I don’t care what you’re thinking, I just want to say that since you got in through connections, don’t think that you can still get everyone’s respect. If you really want to be respected, work hard or keep a low profile. You don’t have to put on airs the moment you come up. Those who don’t know might think that you’re the son of my father. As for what I say or do, it has nothing to do with you. Besides, it’s none of your business” As Melody spoke, she pushed Ryan away with her shoulder and walked out. In her previous life, she had worked hard for the Fox family. She was afraid that a single mistake would affect the Fox family’s reputation, so she was careful and forbearing. In this his life, she would never live like she did in her previous life. As long as she was u unwilling, no one could make her suffer. Ryan looked in the direction Melody had left, his eyes filled with confusion and shock, He suddenly felt that this country bumpkin did not come from the countryside at all. Instead, she looked like a high- ranking person. He couldn’t refute a single word she said just now He thought, ‘Damn it Ryan stomped his feet angrily, gritting his teeth. … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 133” »
Chapter 132 This post was instantly replied to countless times. Someone wrote: [Please enlighten me, big shot!] Wendell immediately perked up and read the post carefully. The person who posted replied: [It’s the traditional medicine Master, Quentin Parker! But he has retired for many years. Perhaps he has already passed away.] Someone wrote: [I’ve heard of Quentin. Not only is his medical skills impressive, but he’s also very famous in other industries. He’s an all–rounder. However, he disappeared for a long time. If he hadn’t passed away, it’s impossible for there to be no news of him for more than ten years.] Someone else commented: [Is the Nine–Line Acupuncture so awesome? Why is the bounty only worth two hundred thousand dollars?] Another person commented: [Judging from the level of the person who posted the bounty, it should be because his level is not high enough to post a higher amount.] The posts at the back were all meaningless posts. Wendell couldn’t be bothered to read them anymore. The hope that had been ignited in his heart was extinguished again. “Fuck!” He couldn’t help but curse. “It wasn’t easy for me to find some useful information, but that useless Quentin is already dead! What the hell Wendell didn’t have much patience. Soon, he was no longer in the mood to continue reading the forum. He added a sentence in the post: [If you provide any clues, you can get the bounty. I can’t put up a higher amount, so I can transfer it privately. After that, he changed his username He changed the original string of irregular numbers to his real name. Since Ulricwanted him to r rope in the boss of the black market, he had to attract his attention first. He believed that his name would quickly attract the attention of the boss of the black market. After doing this, Wendell closed the page and continued his life of luxury. Money made the world go round. He just had to log in the forum every few days to take a look At the same time, when Melody took the car to the headhunting company, she also logged into the forum on her phone. The forum server did a good job, and it was very smooth to log in. She saw a private message notifying her that a bounty had been received. This was the first bucket of gold she had dug up on the forum. Melody could not help but be in a good mood. After withdrawing the bounty, she went to check the medical section. Unintentionally, she caught a glimpse of a post with the words “Nine–Line Acupuncture” written on it. Nine Line Acupuncture was what she had learned from her master. Melody clicked on it with interest. When she saw that the bounty was only two hundred thousand dollars, she was disinterested and prepared to close the page. The reason was that the Nine–Line Acupuncture consumed a lot of energy. 1/3 She would need to be bedridden for at least half a month to perform it. Just two hundred thousand dollars was not worth it. Just as Melody was about to close the page, she suddenly noticed the username of the bounty hunter. Wendell Hunter. “Wendell?” She could not help but be stunned. She thought, Isn’t Wendell Ulric’s uncle and Astrid’s brother? Is this a coincidence or a fake name?” After all, almost no one on the f forum would use their real name as a username. However, after combining the contents of the bounty, Melody was almost certain that this person was the Wendell she knew. If Ulric’s legs wanted to return to normal, he needed to be treated with nine–line acupuncture. After realizing this. Melody smiled coldly. She thought. This Wendell is really stupid. He actually announced his real name so openly She clicked on Wendell’s homepage and sent him a private message after accepting the bounty The forum showed that Wendell was not online now, so she did not wait for a reply on the fo Coincidentally, she had arrived at the headhunting company. forum and went offline Melody opened the car door and got out. She saw a woman wearing black–framed glasses standing at the entrance of the company. Melody had interacted with this woman in her previous life and knew that her name was Kayla Simon. She was the person in charge of this headhunting company, but Melody had not interacted much with her and did not know her temper. As soon as Melody walked over, she put on a smile and greeted. Hello, I’m Before Melody could finish introducing herself. Kayla interrupted her and said. “I know, Miss Fox.” As Kayla spoke, she sized Melody up seriously and subtly. … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 132” »
Chapter 131 When Ulric heard Mabel’s nasal voice, he felt even more impatient than before. He hated women who cried constantly. “No, I just… Ulric was about to find an excuse to hang up when he suddenly looked up. He thought, ‘Mabel Fox, Melody. Fox Ulric rolled his eyes and returned to his usual gentle tone. I’m not in a bad mood. It’s just that after lunch today, I had dessert with Melody and I feel a little sick of it now. So… I’m sorry. I appreciate your kindness? “I see… Melodyactually came over. I didn’t even know…” Mabel tried her best to maintain her voice and said calmly. “Then go ahead. I won’t disturb you anymore.” “Okay, goodbye. Ulric hung up and sneered. Melody made him very unhappy today. In that case, he wanted to make use of Mabel to disgust her. He thought, ‘Mabel has a beautiful appearance but nothing in her mind. She is the best person to use. On the other end of the phone, Mabel was so angry that she almost dropped the half–cooked cheese in her hand. Bitch! Bitch! Her fingers gripped the table tightly, digging a long mark on it With a loud snap, her nails broke. Mabel gasped in pain, and the anger in her heart intensified. She thought, “Melody, Melody! That bitch is everywhere! It was not enough for her to get close to Ken. It was not enough to let Ken speak up for her at the birthday banquet. Now, she wanted to curry favor with Ulric. Does she want to have both of them with her look? Why didn’t she take a look at herself in the mirror first Mabel was so angry that she was about to go crazy. At this moment, the socialite from the same training class opened the door of the bakery classroom. Mabel was shocked and quickly regained her composure: She turned around and asked with a smile, “Pam? Isn’t class over? Why are you back?” The socialite named Ramela Clark sighed and said, “My mother asked me to come back and practice more. Seriously, no matter how hard I work, it’s impossible for me to become the top socialite in Silverlake, okay? In my opinion, as long as you sign up this year, the top socialite will definitely be your.” Mabel enjoyed her words, but she still pretended to be humble on the surface. “How can you be so sure? As long as you work hard enough, you will have a chance. Everyone will have a chance. “Forget it, I’m already over it. I’d better stay here and scroll through my phone.” As Pamela spoke, she asked suspiciously. “By the way, why are you still here after so long? Didn’t the teacher say that your half–cooked cheese is the most perfect during the baking class?” Mabel lowered her eyes and said sadly, “I wanted to give my half–cooked cheese to the person I like, but just now… he rejected me on the phone: “What?” Pamela raised her voice and asked. “Who’s so blind as to reject our top socialite in Silverlake?” Mabel shook her head, “He’s a perfect person. It’s normal for him to reject me. However, I’m sad that he rejected me because 13 of my sister…” Pamela said. “Your sister? The ugly one?” Mabel pretended to be unhappy. Tam, please don’t talk about my sister like that. She’s actually quite a nice person.” Pamela sneered and said, “She’s a good person? If she was a good person, would she snatch her younger sister’s man?” Mabel shook her head and looked like she was unwilling to say anything else. She only said, “If my sister likes him too, then, then I’m willing to give up.” Pamela felt even more indignant for Mabel “If you give up, you’re a fool! She’s infertil you in every way. She’s the one who should give up! Mabel, you have to believe in yourself. Among all the socialites in Silverlake, you’re the most beautiful and charming!” Mabel sighed and said, “Thank you for praising me. I’m not in the mood to talk about this anymore. Please help me keep it a secret. I’ll go back first.” Pamela nodded and watched Mabel leave. However, after Mabel left, she quickly scolded Melody in the group chat on her phone. The socialite circle in Silverlake was not big. Soon, Melody became famous in the circle. Someone commented in a group chat: [How dare that ugly girl from the countryside snatch Mabel’s man? Is she crazy?] Another girl wrote: [That’s why country bumpkins are country bumpkins. They have no self–awareness at all.] Another person texted: [She probably doesn’t even know how to write the words ‘self–awareness‘!] All the socialites were ridiculing Melody. Mabel naturally saw it too, but she pretended not to see anything and let the matter ferment crazily. At this moment, Mabel received a message from Ulric. [Mabel, are you free tomorrow afternoon? If you’re free, can you help me go to the Herbathrive to get the medicine? My mother went to find a doctor to treat my leg. I’m worried about letting others get it, so I can only ask you.] Mabel’s eyes lit up when she saw the message. The gloominess from before was swept away. She replied: [I’m free! I don’t have class tomorrow!] At this moment, all the reservedness of a socialite was thrown out of Mabel’s mind. On the other end of the phone, Ulric smiled in satisfaction. He thought, ‘She is indeed an easy woman to control. She is overjoyed just by giving her a little hope. If only Melody is so easy to control. In the next moment, Ulric’s expression turned ugly again. He thought, Why do I keep thinking about that ugly woman!” … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 131” »
