Chapter 230 When James thought Ken was about to get angry, he heard Ken say calmly. “It’s fine. You’re right. My punishment for Jane was indeed thoughtless. Once she recovers tomorrow, she can return to work. The launch of the new product can’t do without her.” James let out a sigh of relief and instinctively said, “That’s the right decision!” To James, Jane was the only woman who matched Ken perfectly, given how she toiled for the company and Ken. Murphy Ken frowned and gave him a sidelong glance, which startled James. Realizing he had said too much, he quickly changed the subject. “Miss Murp wasn’t in good shape tonight. Are you staying here tonight” Ken glanced at Janet, who was whimpering and seemingly uncomfortable. After a brief silence, he said, “Get me a blanket. I’ll stay here tonight. Yes. Mr. Swanson!” James responded with delight and went out to fetch a blanket. He quickly set up a bed on the floor. Ken wanted to wash up, but as soon as he moved to leave, Janet began to cry. By this time, the hangover medicine should have taken effect, but perhaps Janet was too drunk. With no other option, he asked James to bring him some toiletries. He washed up standing by the bed and then seuled down on the makeshift bed on the floor. The night was both long and short. Melody didn’t fall into a deep sleep until the early hours when the sky began to lighten. It felt like she had only slept for a moment when Susan’s voice woke her up. “Miss Fox? Why are you sleeping on the couch? Where’s Mr. Swanson?” Melody was a light sleeper and had woken up when Susan entered the living room. She sat up from the couch, feeling sore all over. Faced with Susan’s questions, she didn’t know how to respond and vaguely said, “He had something to do and went out “Oh, then why are you… Susan started to ask more, but Melody waved her hand tiredly, cutting her off. “It’s late. I’m heading out. If if Ken comes back, please tell him I won’t be home tonight.” Susan looked surprised but, seeing the dark circles under Melody’s eyes, she swallowed her words and simply nodded. “Alright, Miss Fox” Melody didn’t linger any longer. After freshening up, she hailed a cab and headed to ley Clear Cosmetics. Coincidentally, as she got out of the taxi, she ran into Troy. It seemed Troy was heading to the company next door. Not wanting to cause any trouble, Melody quickened her pace into Icy Clear Cosmetics. However, Troy noticed her and swiftly stepped in her path. “Melody?” Troy’s gaze scanned her from head to toe with disdain, then he let out a cold laugh. I never would have guessed it A country girl like you has some tricks up her sleeve. Even after I pulled such a big move by canceling my orders, your father will stood by you. I’m genuinely curious, what kind of tricks did you pull?” Melody ignored most of what “Troy said, but she caught the part about Russell standing by her. She felt a flicker of confusion as she wondered. ‘Could it be that Troy is mistaken? Yes, she hasn’t gone home last night, and Russell hasn’t called. which is unusual. Suppressing her doubts, she calmly asked, “Is there something you need, Mr. Clark!” Troy smirked slyly and said, “Nothing much. I just wanted to give you a heads–up. The matter with Fam isn’t over. You’ll pay the price sooner or later!” His face radiated a smug satisfaction, making Melody frown and feel a surge of unease. “What’s Troy planning” she wondered. Before she could ask further, Troy strode away, heading straight into the adjacent company, which also dealt in fashion design. Melody noted the name of the company and then pushed aside her thoughts as she walked into Icy Clear Cosmetics. Wilmot had sent an assistant to wait for her at the entrance. Seeing her approach, the assistant, with an indifferent expression, stepped forward. “Miss Fox, Mr. Sherman instructed me to wait for you here, I’ll take you to the R&D department” 1/2 2/2 10:00 AM ₫ Chapter 930 Noting the contempt in the assistant’s eyes, Melody didn’t say much and simply nodded, following the assistant to the R&D department. “Mr. Mayer, she’s here,” the assistant casually informed Tim Mayer, the head of the R&D department, before turning to leave. Melody instinctively called out to the assistant. “Where’s Wilmot?” The assistant impatiently said, “Mr. Sherman is hospitalized with a fever. Mr. Mayer will be in charge of you” Π Then, without any regard for Melody, he muttered resentfully. “It’s all because of you, jinx. If you hadn’t bet the company. Mr. Sherman wouldn’t be so worried that he fell ill. Thanks to you, we’ll all be sick from stress soon enough!” Melody opened her mouth, about to inquire abour Wilmot’s condition, but the assistant didn’t bother to say another word and swiftly left. … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 230” »

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 229 Ken was startled and quickly reached out to grab Janet’s wrist Janet took advantage of the momentum and fell into Ken’s arms, hitting his chest with her fists. “Let go of me! Let me die! None of about me!” Ken had no other choice. He picked Janet up horizontally and started striding out. Just as he reached the doorway, he bumped into James, who had just bought some hangover medicine. Seeing Ken holding Janet, James asked, somewhat shocked, “Mr. Swanson? Where are you going?” “To the nearby hotel. She’s in a bad state. We need to sober her up “Yes, Mr. Swanson.” James quickly went to get the car, and soon they reached the nearest hotel. However, neither of them noticed the flash of a camera in a black business car nearby. At Serenity Villa, Melody was about to fall asleep when her phone suddenly chimed with a message. Is it Ken?‘ she wondered. Her sleepiness vanished instantly, and she opened her eyes to check her phone However, the message was from an unfamiliar number, containing just two photos. you should care Curious, she clicked on them, only to see pictures of Ken holding Janet intimately. In the second photo, Ken was carrying Janet into a hotel It was obvious what a man and a woman going into a hotel together would do. Melody glanced at the bed she was lying in, which belonged to Ken. This scene felt oddly ironic. It was her fault that this perfect couple couldn’t go home and had to sleep in a hotel. Taking a deep breath, Melody got up, found a blanket in the closet and went downstairs to lie on the couch. The couch didn’t carry Ken’s scent, which helped calm her down. Her gaze fell back on her phone. This time, she wasn’t looking at the photos but the number that sent them. “Who has sent me these photos? What’s his or her purposer‘ she thought to herself. She frowned slightly and dialed the number. The phone rang twice before the other party hung up. She tried calling again, but it went straight to voicemail. Melody couldn’t even lie still on the couch. She opened Ken’s laptop on the coffee table and her fingers flew across the keyboard. The screen filled with green lines of code as she rapidly typed. In no time, she had finished and hit the enter key, successfully hacking into the sender’s phone and retrieving his identity. “Anthony Murphy.” She read the name aloud, her eyes narrowing as she searched for information about Anthony online. Soon, she discovered he was a distant relative of the Murphy family in Instermond. So it’s Janet’s doing. I should have guessed; she sneered inwardly Janet had set this up, just waiting to flaunt her victory. With a blank expression, Melody deleted all traces of her activity from the laptop and closed it. She couldn’t deny that her mood was completely ruined by Janet’s antics, her mind involuntarily imagining what might be happening between Ken and Janet at the hotel. In the hotel suite, Ken laid Janet on the bed and was about to ask James to get some water when his wrist was suddenly gripped. It was Janet. “Don’t go… don’t leave me. You’re all I have left…” Janet mumbled, her eyes misty with a haze of Ken frowned slightly, unable to leave Janet alone in this state. He sighed and said, Jane, I need to get you some water. You’ve had too much to drink” “Don’t go.” Janet stubbornly tightened her grip on Ken’s wrist. From the bed, Janet continued to murmur, “Don’t leave me here alone… My brother left, abandoned me, and now you will too. I know I did wrong. but I truly regret it but no one listens… Tears streamed down her cheeks, making her look even more pitiful. Ken had no choice but to sit by the bed and use his free hand to dial James‘ number. “Bring the hangover medicine in, and ask the hotel to warm some milk.” “Yes,” James replied succinctly and went to carry out the cask After the call, Ken’s gaze fell back on Janes. Janet had been with Ken through the creation of Ximber Tech. For one of Ximber Tech’s new products, she hadn’t even attended her brother’s funeral. On the business battlefield, they had been unstoppable. No matter how formidable the opponent, Janet had always been confident and composed. He had never seen her so despondent. Feeling a pang of guilt, Ken tucked the blanket around Janet and said, “I’m not leaving. You can’t handle alcohol well, so don’t go to places like bars in the future.” As his words hung in the air, Janet’s sobbing seemed to ease. … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 229” »
Chapter 228 Melody looked at the time and said. “It’s past eleven o’clock. It’s indeed getting late. I have to go to Icy Clear Cosmetics early tomorrow morning. I’ll go o and rest. “You’re really concerned about Wilmot’s mailer” Ken sneered at her. Melody asked in confusion. You don’t seem to like Wilmot very much?” Ken asked, “Is he money! Does everyone have to like him?” Melody pursed her lips and did not say anything else. She walked towards the guest room that Shane had slept in previously. However, Susan stopped her. “Miss Fox, you’re going to the wrong room. The room arranged for you to sleep in is upstairs Susan pointed in the direction of Ken’s room on the second floor and said, “Because the little kid wet the bed, I removed the mattress and so on in the guest bedroom on the first floor. The new one can only be sent over tomorrow.” Melody frowned. “What about the other guest rooms!” Susan rubbed her hands and said with a smile, “You’re the only guest in the house. There aren’t that many guest rooms at all, so you can sleep with Mr. Ken tonight” “What?” Melody’s eyelids twitched “Susan, are you kidding me?” Susan pretended to yawn and said, “It’s late. I’m old and should go and rest. Miss Fox, I wish you a good night’s sleep with Mr. Ken. Im going to sleep first.” As Susan spoke, she left very quickly. She showed the speed that people of her age really had. She disappeared instantly Melody looked at Ken in a daze. “What should we do!” “What else can we do! Go upstairs and sleep! Ken put down the tablet in his hand. As he walked upstairs, he said leisurely, “Don’t worry, I won’t be interested in you. “You.” Melody was so angry that she blurted out, “A lot of people are interested in me!” “Really?” Ken’s eyes were smiling as he glanced at her chest. Melody quickly crossed her arms. Where are you looking?” Ken looked away lightly. “Indeed, there’s nothing to see With that, he went straight upstairs. “What do you mean?” Melody chased after him angrily. When she came back to her senses, she realized that she was already standing by his bed. For a moment, she blushed. Ken said naturally. I’m going to take a shower first. You can choose which side you want to sleep in With that, he went into the bathroom. Soon, the sound of ambiguous water running came from the bathroom. Melody’s heart was beating like a drum as she sat on the bed with a flushed face She thought, ‘What do I do? Although she had already married someone in her previous life, she was never intimate with Ulric, let alone sleeping on the same bed with him… Melody bit her lower lip hard, her face so red that it could drip blood. At this moment, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped. Her heartbeat quickened at this moment. The next second, the bathroom door opened. As the door opened, the water vapor inside was also brought out. She could only vaguely see Ken standing in the mist. He was only wrapped in a white towel. His perfect abs were half covered by the towel, and his figure was so perfect that he was like a rare sculpture. For a moment, Melody seemed to lie liewitched and subconsciously stared at him. 1/3 Chapter 228 A muffled laugh suddenly sounded. Melody suddenly came back to her senses and her gaze happened to meet Ken’s obsidian–like black eyes. Ken did not blow–dry his hair, His black hair was wet and stuck to his forehead. The contours of his cold face seemed to be gentler than usual. His lips curled into a faint smile. “Why! You’ve never seen a man before? Melody regained her senses and quickly looked away. She blushed and looked away as she denied. Tam not looking at your “Really?” The smile on his lips deepened. Just as he was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang, breaking the atmosphere in the FOOL. He reached out and looked at the caller ID on his phone. The gentleness on his face instantly dissipated, and he answered the call expressionlessly. “Hello?” James said. “Mr. Ken! Come to Leit Bar quickly. Miss Murphy’s condition is not good. She drank too much and wants to commit suicide!” “What did you say?” Ken frowned. “You’ll know the details when you get here. Hurry up and come over James sounded very anxious. Ken held the phone tightly and said in a deep voice, “I’ll be right there” … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 228” »
Chapter 227 Those who did not know better would think that the two of them were a couple in love Janet was completely immersed in happiness. She was very satisfied with everything she had arranged. Although this move was really cliché, the results showed that it was the most useful Janet secretly decided that she would completely take down Ken tonight and finish what she started She knew that Ken was actually a very responsible person. Once he had slept with her, he would definitely take responsibility for her. However, in the next moment, a familiar voice came from above. The person holding her said with concern, “Miss Murphy, are you alright?” Janet’s originally soft body instantly stiffened, and a stunned expression appeared on her face. She thought. Isn’t this… James? Did I hearwrongly?” For a moment, Janet did not care that she was pretending to be drunk. She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the face of the person carrying her. The lights of the bar were dim, but James’s face was only inches away. She saw him immediately. The person who came was actually James 15 At this moment, it was as if Janet had been struck by lightning. All her happiness and expectations were instantly shattered. At the same time, her rationality shattered along with the happiness she had just imagined. relief w “Miss Murphy, you’re awake?” James heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her open her eyes. He said, “I’ve already gotten someone to beat up the guy who was harassing you. You’re fine now, don’t be afraid.” Janet finally came back to her senses. She quickly held her forehead and pretended to be dizzy while maintaining a distance from James. “Miss Murphy, do you feel dizzy?” James’s eyes were filled with concern. Janet clenched her fists tightly. Her heart was filled with confusion and hatred. She had already encountered such a terrifying danger, but Ken did not come personally. Instead, he sent James. She wondered if she was really not important to him at all.. She thought, ‘If the person who encountered such a situation today was Melody, would he send James or come personally? com Janet did not know the answer, but the anger in her heart burned brighter and brighter. She blamed everything on Melody. If it weren’t for Melody, she wouldn’t have to lower herself to do such a thing to earn Ken’s concern Thinking of this, Janet secretly decided that she must get Ken to come over today. She deliberately retched and stubbornly waved her hand. “I’m fine. Go. I want to be alone for a while.” James could not help but feel even more worried. “Miss Murphy, you can’t be like this. I’m worried about you staying here alone. Bars are filled with all kinds of people. You should come with me.” “I don’t want to!” Janet looked away with tears in her eyes. “Een doesn’t need me anymore. Even if something happens to me, he won’t be worried at all. Don’t worry about me. Let me fend for myself” As she spoke, she picked up the wine on the table and was about to pour it into her mouth. “Miss Murphy!” James quickly went forward and grabbed the bottle of wine. “Don’t be like this. How can Mr. Ken not need you? How many products of Ximber Tech were developed by you? Mr. Ken is just angry right now. He is angry that you didn’t tell him before you did anything” Janet shook her head as tears streamed down her face. “You’re wrong. James. He really doesn’t care about me. If he cared about me, he wouldn’t have let you come. Maybe if I die here tonight, it will be good for him. Yes… If he doesn’t care about me anymore, why am I still alive?” As soon as she finished speaking. Janet crashed into a comer of the table. James was scared out of his wits. He quickly rushed forward to stop Janet. “Miss Murphy, don’t do anything stupid! If Mr. Ken really doesn’t care about you, he wouldn’t have informed me to come and save you just you wait, I’ll call Mr. Ken now!” As James spoke, he pulled Janet with one hand and dialed Ken’s number with the other. 1/2 Seeing this, Janet’s lips secretly curled into an imperceptible arc. nuller with Ken. At Serenity Villa, after finishing the bowl of spagheni, Melody did not stay idle and started discussing Zack’s matt Melody said. “The current Ximber Tech can’t be compared to Mont Technology for the time being. We won’t know until your series of products is introduced. Zack will have a better future if he jumps over to Ximber Tech. But Zack wanted to talk to me in a week, so I need to know if I can reveal to Zack about Ximber Tech’s products. Ken said calmly. “Sure. If he’s willing, you can bring him to the company to experience it. However, there’s one thing. You can’t reveal my identity. From what I know, Ulric has noticed his ability. If he chooses Ulric in the end, he might reveal my identity” Melody hurriedly nodded. “I know that. If not for that, you could have come forward and poached him yourself. Your name carries more significance than Ximber TechTM wwwly glanced at her, his gaze noncommittal. Melody continued, “Then I’ll focus on the company’s competitiveness and future prospects to attract him to jump ship” … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 227” »
Chapter 226 Russell was originally in a good mood, but when he heard Yolanda and Mabel echoing each other, he slowly frowned, and there was suppressed anger in his eyes. “Would both of you rather trust an outsider than Melody! Although Melody came back from the countryside, you’ve seen it during this period of time. Her upbringing and temper have all inherited my merits. She’s not someone who doesn’t know her limits!” When Mabel heard that Russell was biased towards Melody, she was immediately enraged. She did not care about Yolanda’s instructions and said. “Dad, it’s not that I don’t believe Melody, but I’ve already called Mr. Clark. He personally told me that Melody was the one who detained Pamela. The Clark family has ordered a lot of things from our company, What if Mr. Clark vents his anger on the company? Mom and I are worried about our family’s future.” Russell was furious. He reached out and slapped Mabel. He felt that his dignity as the head of the family had been challenged. “According to you. the Justalion Group can’t do without the Clark family? Am I so useless in your eyes?” Mabel was hit so hard that her entire body tilted to the side. She looked at Russell in disbelief as tears streamed down her face. Yolanda’s heart ached. As she rubbed Mabel’s face, she said, “Russell, why did you hit her for no reason? You know that she admires you the most in her heart. How can she think that you’re useless? This matter has really blown up. We’re all afraid that Melody will harm our company Only then did Russell’s anger dissipate a little, but his tone was still cold. “Don’t worry, Melody won’t harm our family. This time, Yolanda couldn’t hold it in anymore. She said, “Russell. I know your heart aches for Melody, but you can’t spoil the child too much. She caused more trouble this time than before. If you don’t teach her a lesson, it will be even worse in the future. By then, it will be too late!” Russell’s anger, which had been suppressed with great difficulty, was aroused again. “What’s wrong! You and your daughter can’t tolerate a little girl from the countryside?” Yolanda’s eyes were filled with surprise. Russell continued angrily. “Mabel, you’ve been spoiled by your mother since you were young. You can get whatever you want, but what about Melody? I was afraid that your mother wouldn’t get along with her, so I sent her to the countryside when she was only a child. I pity her for being so young and growing up alone in the countryside. It’s not easy for her to finally come back now. It’s fine if you don’t treat her well, but you want me to teach her a lesson all the time. Why are you so petty? If I hear you say anything bad about her in the future, don’t blame me for punishing you!” The more Russell spoke, the angrier he became. He was not a fool. During this period of time, he had seen how Yolanda and Mabel treated Melody. It was just that he did not take it to heart in the past. However, this did not mean that he was blind. Now, after Ken’s reminder, he deeply felt that as a father, he was really a failure. If he continued to let Yolanda and Mabel go on like this, something would happen sooner or later. Therefore, he had to teach them a lesson. Russell took a deep breath and said coldly to Yolanda, “I’ll sleep alone tonight. You sleep in the guest room! Get the servants to send the food to my room. I don’t want to see you guys again today” With that, he got up and walked upstairs, leaving Yolanda and Mabel with a cold back view. Mabel’s eyes were filled with tears. She was extremely flustered. She pulled Yolanda’s sleeve and asked, “Mom, what happened today? Why is he so biased towards Melody, that wretched girl? Could it be that he cares more about Melody now and not me? Yolanda also wanted to know the reason. If it was in the past, Russell would become angry and want to catch Melody and beat her up. She didn’t know what was going on that day, After thinking about it, Yolanda said. “Don’t worry, you don’t know your father well enough. He just likes to talk pompously and suddenly wants to establish the image of a good father. Once his interests are involved, he will immediately forget everything he said today.” Mabel asked, “But why didn’t he believe a word we said today?” Yolanda smiled coldly and said, “It must be because Troy is busy fishing Pamela out and doesn’t have time to deal with the Justalion Group and Melody. When Troy is done with Pamela, your father will naturally know that what we said today is for his own good.” Mabel held her painful cheek and asked, “Then what should we do now?” “Wait” Yolanda narrowed her eyes and said, “When Troy is done with his work and comes back to find trouble with Melody, we will need to do a lot of things by then. Your father will naturally teach her a lesson. The trouble she caused this time is different from before. It directly affects your father’s interests. Your father might be so angry that he will directly kick Melody out.” When Mabel heard this, she felt a little better. Even her face did not seem to hurt as much However, when she thought of Russell’s expression and tone just now, she still felt a little uneasy. She felt like she was about to fall out of favor. However, there was really nothing she could do now. The only thing she could do was wait for Troy to cause trouble. 1/2 Yolanda thought of Pamela and said, “Go and visit Pamela tomorrow morning. Although Troy’s attack on Melody is a good thing for us, we can’t really lose our source of income. You have to build a good relationship with Pamela. When the time comes, she will naturally remind her father to be careful with dealing with our company.” “Alright!” Mabel immediately agreed. At Leit Bar, Janet waited for a while and finally received the news. “Someone’s here. He said he’s looking for you” Janet nodded and gave the man a look. Then, she pretended to be drunk. The man immediately understood and grabbed Janet’s collar. “Looks like your family won’t come. In that case, since you’re quite good–looking. compensate my clothes with your body!” As the man spoke, he leaned over and pressed himself against Janet. His voice and movements were very loud and even in the noisy bar, it was very eye–catching. The man’s acting skills were extraordinary. He chuckled and said, “Liule girl, your figure is not bad! If you are with me, I will definitely not treat you badly!” With that, he boldly reached for Janet’s waist and slowly slid his hand up. In the nick of time, a low shout rang out “Stop!” Before the man could react, he was forcefully pulled away by a large hand and thrown more than six feet away. When Janet heard the commotion, her eyelids trembled slightly, She did not open her eyes, but she knew that it must be Ken She thought, The timing is just right! God is really helping mel In the next second, she felt the world spin as she was picked up horizontally. The smell of male hormones spread to the tip of her nose. Janet’s heart instantly raced. … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 226” »
Chapter 225 Sering Janet’s call, Melody couldn’t help but think of the post online. Ken clearly knew that it was Janet’s doing, but he told her that he did not find the perpetrator. It was undeniable that there was an indescribable discomfort in her heart when she thought of this However, she did not show any emotions and only lowered her head to eat her spaghetti seriously. Ken also saw the caller ID and rejected the call without thinking. Melody thought that Ken would pick up the phone, but in the end, he ended up talking to her. “Melody, don’t you think you’re a little stingy?” “What?” She looked up in shock and saw Ken pointing at the spaghetti with a look of disdain. “Last time I asked you to cook, you cooked oatmeal. This time, I asked you to cook. You cooked spaghetti Can’t you make a normal meal? I didn’t see you complaining about the trouble at the Swanson family’s mountain villa a few days ago.” Melody was about to explain that it was because there were insufficient ingredients when his phone rang again. It was still Janet calling. Melody glanced at him and said. “You’re not picking it up” Ken’s eyes were filled with impatience, but he still picked up the call. “Hello?” His voice was extremely cold. There was only noise on the other end of the phone. Then, an unfamiliar man’s voice sounded. “Hello, is this Miss Murphy’s family?” Ken frowned. “Who are you!” The other party’s tone was very had. “I’m a guest of Leit Bar. Your girlfriend vomited all over me. Get over here and compensate me! My clothes are not cheap! If you don’t come over in ten minutes, don’t blame me for doing something bad to her.” Ken said, “Don’t touch her. I’ll be right there.” “Hurry up!” the other party urged before hanging up. The volume of the call was very loud, and Melody could hear it clearly She remembered that in her previous life, Janet was the kind of person who would not go to a bar at all. She thought, “Why did she get drunk at a bar? Could it be that she has ulterior motives? However, Melody was too lazy to get involved. After all, she was not the one who was going to clean up the mess. Ken did not immediately get up and leave. Instead, after hanging up the phone, he immediately made another call. “James, pick Janet up at Leit Bar. She’s had too much to drink” Without waiting for James to respond, he hung up the phone and picked up the fork again. He started eating his spaghetti Seeing this, Melody could not help but ask in surprise, “You’re not going over there?” “James is closer to Leit Bar than me,” Ken said matter–of–factly. Melody could not help but choke, What a reasonable statement. She could not refuse it. Ken, who was sitting opposite her, looked at the spaghetti in front of him. His face was still filled with disdain. He rolled up some spaghetti, dipped them in some sauce, and put them into his mouth. In the next second, a look of surprise appeared on his face. The spaghetti seemed plain, but it was delicious. He even wondered if Melody cast a spell on this food. However, he quickly hid his surprise and ate the spaghetti expressionlessly. Soon, the bowl of spaghetti was empty. He actually felt like he hadn’t had enough. Those who didn’t know better would think that he had never eaten anything delicious before. He couldn’t even get enough of some spaghetti. When Melody saw that Ken had finished eating, she subconsciously asked, “How “So–10,” Ken n said emotionlessly, “I want to eat normal food tomorrow.” “Got it.” Melody pursed her lips. She felt that the spaghetti she made tasted pretty good. Everyone who had tasted the spaghetti she cooked was full. Chapter 925 of praise. She felt that Ken was too picky, At Leit Bar, Janet’s eyes were bright as she watched the man beside her call Ken. She did not look drunk at all and asked clearly, “What did he say!” The man replied respectfully, “He said he’ll be here soon. Janet nodded and said. “Continue acting when he arrives. The more rude you are, the better The man said. “Yes, Miss Janeir Janet sakl, “Remember to change the way you address me. We don’t know each other!” “Yes, Miss… Okay.” The man changed his words with difficulty Janet glared at the man and warned him in a low voice, “If you dare to expose yourself when Ken comes, you know the consequences?” The man shrunk his neck and promised repeatedly, “I won’t!” Janet’s mood improved a little. She took a bottle of wine and smeared some on her clothes. Then, she drank some wine. When she felt that she recked of alcohol, she asked the man to open more than ten bottles of wine in a row. Then, she poured out all the wine in the bottle and sat in the booth in peace, waiting for Ken to arrive. At the Fox family, Yolanda and Mabel sat in the living room and waited. Mabel was getting impatient and kept walking around the living room. Yolanda massaged her temples and said with a frown, “Stop going around. It’s giving me a headache!” … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 225” »
Chapter 224 On the other end of the line, Troy deliberately kept Russell at dispense for a long time before calling him back. He had previously learned from Pamela that Russell did not like Melody, so he planned to use Russell to teach Melody a lesson. Without the Clark Group’s order, the Justalion Group probably wouldn’t be able to hold on for long. He knew that Russell would definitely jump up and down in anxiety. And now, it was time to make things clear. When Russell heard Troy’s mocking tone, he was neither anxious nor angry. Instead, he put on a smile and said. “My staff me that you withdrew the order. Troy snorted and did not notice that Russell’s tone was off. He said arrogantly. “It seems like you still don’t know what happened.” “What happened?” Russell pretended not to know and wanted to play with Troy Troy briefly explained the detention of Melody and Pamela. Then, he said fiercely. “If you don’t make that bitch pay the price, the Clark Group will never cooperate with you again. Think about it!” The corners of Russell’s lips curled up as he said, “Mr. Clark, you’re wrong. How can I take my anger out on my biological daughter for the company’s matters? Since Mr. Clark suspects that we want to terminate the collaboration, terminate the contract as you wish! I get the financial evaluation for the termination fee of the contract later. I won’t get involved. I hope Mr. Clark can transfer the termination fee as soon as possible so that we won’t look bad in court.” Troy choked. He didn’t believe what he had just heard. This was not the Russell he knew, He said. “Russell, are you drunk? Did you hear what I said? Compared to the penalty, losing our orders is a greater loss, right?” Russell said slowly, “It used to be like this, but not anymore.” Troy asked, “What do you mean? Do you actually want me to do this for your ugly daughter! Have you thought it through?” Russell said coldly. “Troy, if you dare to use the word ugly to describe my daughter again, I won’t be polite to you!” In the past, he also felt that Melody had embarrassed him, but he no longer felt that way. This girl was his fortune tree. As long as she was by his side, he would be lucky Troy was furious. “Russell, are you crazy!” Russell chuckled and said, “I think you’re the one who’s crazy. Looks like you haven’t seen the news online. Your company is going to be finished soon, and you still have the mood to talk nonsense with me? Go online and take a look! Idiot!” After scolding him, Russell hung up the phone and blocked Tray. His anger from being bullied by Troy for a long time instantly dissipated. He felt very satisfied. He drove home in a good mood, humming along the way. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Melody was his lucky star. He even regretted not bringing Melody back earlier. At the same time, Melody got into Ken’s car Ken glanced at her calmly and said, “You’ve caused such a big trouble. Your father will take at least a few days to calm down. You can stay at my place for the next few days until the storm blows over,“ Melody nodded. “Thank you.” Ken said, “It’s no trouble. In the future, you’ll cook meals at home every day as accommodation fees.” Melody pursed her lips. She thought. ‘He is really unwilling to suffer any losses. However, she was going to start developing a new product for Wilmot tomorrow. During this period of time, she could not be disturbed at all. She indeed needed to stay at Ken’s residence for a period of time. With that thought in mind. Melody happily agreed. “Alright, I’ll prepare all three meals every day Ken did not comment, but the corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly. The car quickly arrived at the entrance of Serenity Villa. Melody could not help but sigh. She did not expect to end up staying here at night after going to the banquet. 1/3 Susan, who had received the news already, was eagerly looking around at the door. When she saw the two of them get out of the car, she quickly greeted them with a smile. “Miss Fox, you’re finally here! Susan smiled and said. Tve already prepared a room for you. The bedsheets and bedding are all new. I hope you can get used to it.” “Thank you, Susan. Melody’s heart warmed as she said. She could not resist sincere kindness. However, Melody did not notice that Ken, who was behind her, watched her and Susan enter the door. His eyes were as deep as a deep pool, As soon as the two of them entered, Susan asked with concern, “Have you eaten?” Melody had not realized that she had not even had a drop of water for the entire night, let alone eaten. When Susan asked this, she suddenly felt a little lungry. She smiled sheepishly. “Not yet.” Susan asked. “Til make food for you. What do you want to eat?” Ken, who was beside him, said calmly, “Susan, don’t bother. She’ll be in charge of the meals at home for the next few days. Let her cook The smile on Melody’s face stiffened. She thought, “What an evil capitalist! She took a deep breath and maintained a smile on her face. “Susan, you should rest. I’ll make dinner. “This Susan looked at Ken but did not dare to refute. She could only enter the kitchen to help Melody. Melody looked at the ingredients at home and decided to make two bowls of spaghetti. Susan said apologetically. “Mr. Ken has very high requirements for food. I don’t even dare to hoard things. I buy and make them on the spot. “It’s fine. Two bowls of spaghetti are enough for now,” Melody said as she got to work. The first step w was to boil water … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 224” »
Chapter 223 but his On the other end of the line, Ken’s car was already halfway home. When he heard Melody’s words, he immediately turned the car around, but his voice was calm “What do you mean? It was as if he didn’t care. Melody said, “T’m afraid I’m going to have to spend the night at your place.” “What do you mean! What happened? Ken subconsciously grabbed the steering wheel and drove quickly “Nothing has happened yet, but it might not be the case when Russell comes back.” As she spoke, Melody explained the relationship between the Clark Group and the Justalion Group. She did not hide her disappointment and disgust for Russell When Ken heard this, he felt slightly relieved, “Looks like your father is comparable to mine.” Melody said, “Your father is better. At least he is reasonable.” Ken did not comment. Ever since he was young, whenever he did not do his best, what awanted him was a beating. On the contrary, Ulric was pampered since he was young. However, Ulric was the one who always felt he was treated unfairly. Ken fought that ridiculous. He was silent for two seconds before saying, “Wait for me at the back of the neighborhood. I be there in ten minutes.” “Thank you, Mr. Swanson! Don’t worry, I’ll pay for my stay Melody’s lips curved into a smile. She hung up the phone and quickened her pace towards the back of the community. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to stay in a hotel, but it was hard to guarantee that Russell wouldn’t drag her back from the hotel. Therefore, Ken’s house was the safest place to The next second after the call ended, Ken found Russell’s number and dialed it. Russell wa I was rushing to the Clark family because the Clark Group suddenly withdrew the order without giving him a reason and did not answer his call. He was so anxious that his heart was burning. At this moment, an unknown number called. Frustrated, he answered the call. There was anger in his voice. “Who is this?”“”“ The other end of the line was silent for two seconds before asking faintly, What’s wrong, Mr. Fox?” Russell’s back stiffened. He stepped on the brakes and asked in shock, “Mr. Swanson?” Russell quickly pulled over and asked respectfully, “Mr. Swanson, what’s the matter)” Ken said, “It’s about Melody” “What?” Russell could not help but frown. He subconsciously asked, “Did my good–for–nothing daughter cause you trouble!” “A good–for–nothing daughter!” There was a hint of coldness in Ken’s voice. “Mr. Fox, what kind of misunderstanding do you have with your daughter! I haven’t even said anything and you already think that she’s causing trouble?” Russell said, “No. I just…“ Ken directly interrupted Russell and said, “Not only did Miss Fox not cause me any trouble, but she also helped me a lot. You don’t need to know the specifics. I called you to explain the withdrawal of the Clark Group’s order.” “Clark Group?” Russell could not connect Melody to the Clark Group. He asked, “What happened?” Ken said, “Troy’s daughter, Pamela, bullied our company’s celebrity. Miss Fax stepped forward to protect our celebrity. I was afraid that Troy would implicate the Justalion Group in a fit of anger, so I specially called to ask about the situation Russell suddenly raised his eyelids. He finally understood why Troy withdrew the order in large quantities without any reason. It was related to Melody. Troy, Ken was the r However, compared to Troy, Ken was • real big shot. Although there was a high chance that Ulric would inherit the Swanson Group in the future, a slight benefit offered to him by the Swanson family was considered a big benefit for him, let alone the benelit offered by Ken. Chapter 223 The more Russell thought about it, the more he felt that this was not a bad thing. He quickly smiled apologetically and said. “It’s Melody’s honor to be able to help you. It’s the histalion Group’s honor to have you call me and ask about it” Ken said calmly. “I was just worried that you would vent your anger on Miss Fox, so I specially explained it for her. Russell said ingratiatingly. “Why would I vent my anger on my daughter over such a small matter?” On the other end of the phone, Ken raised his eyebrows and said, “Don’t worry. Mr. Fox. I’ll compensate you as soon as possible for the losses you’ve had this time. Troy’s company is no longer suitable to work with us. The Swanson Universal Entertainment will find a new partner soon. When the time comes, we can consider your company. After all, your company is an experienced brand and is Miss Fox’s company. It’s worthy of OUT İTURİ.” “Cooperate?” Russell was momentarily unable to receive this shocking news. He could only feel his vision becoming dizzy He pinched his thigh hard and only came back to his senses when he felt the pain. He grabbed his phone tightly and confirmed excitedly. “Is Swanson Universal Entertainment really going to work with the Justalion Group?” Ken said, “Yes, I’ll try my best to make it happen Russell said, “Thank you for giving the justalion Group this chance! We will definitely do our best and not affect your celebrities‘ image!” Ken said calmly. “Mr. Fox, Tim afraid you’re thanking the wrong person. The person you should thank should be Miss Melody” “Yes. I do that in a moment. Russell felt that Melody was really his lucky star. … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 223” »
СОММЕНТ Chapter 222 Even if Ken did not intend to deal with Ulric, their war was already destined to take place. Ulric would definitely not let Ken off. In that case, Melody could continue to work for Ken and help him plan ahead until Ulric started causing trouble and Ken could not take it anymore. What Ken disdained to do did not mean that there was no need to do it. After dealing with the matter at hand, she would help Ken clear his name and expose Ulric’s true colors. Melody took a deep breath and was about to go home when she received the audio from the black market’s stall owner. She lowered the volume and leaned her phone against her ear to listen. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and her eyes revealed a hint of coldness Yolanda had indeed gone to the black market to buy poison again. Now, she only needed to wait for news of Hattie’s son to grasp Before that, she had to constantly shake Russell’s trust and love for Yolanda. Yolanda’s lifeline. Thinking of this, Melody no longer had the leisure to take a walk. After saving the audio to her secret email, she completely erased the chat history and sent 200 thousand dollars as payment to the other party. People in the black market were after the money after all. Even if she had a red card, she had to give that person some benefits. She texted: [If Yolanda comes looking for you again, deal with it the same as this time.] The other party took the money and quickly replied. (No problem!] Just as Melody was about to put away her phone, the still owner sent another message. [Do you still want the herbs you asked for last time?] Melody answered: [Yes. You have thent!] The stall owener: The items already arrived at customs, but for some reason, they were detained. Fortunately, we arranged to pay after we received the items. There were no actual losses. However, it’s very difficult to get this medicinal herb into Halcyon. I don’t know when we’ll have more next time, so we can only go overseas to buy it. However, the medicinal herb comes from Alihan. The war there is endless, so it’s very difficult to go over there.] Melody’s eyes darkened. She asked: Then is there any way to get this herb without going overseas [There’s a way. After the other party replied, he made a call Melody found an empty corner and answered the call. Tell me, is there any other way!” The stall owner said. “The person in charge of the customs warehouse is a person called Benny Lawrence. This person is greedy and likes women. He takes bribes all the time and is the same as his brother, Bobby Lawrence. If you can bribe him, he might be able to give you the herbs. By the way, do you know who Bobby is? He’s a high–level executive of the Swanson Universal Entertainment…” Melody’s expression instantly turned extremely ugly. She thought, Tan’t Bobby the bastard who wanted to take me away from the venue? She gritted her teeth, secretly vexed. Fortunately, Benny was in charge of the warehouse, not Bobby. Melody held the phone tightly and said, “I understand. Thank you.” The stall owner said, “No. It’s my duty to do things for you! If I encounter any difficulties in the future, please send me some help, Miss Fox.” “Okay,” Melody replied and put away her phone. After dealing with Wilmot and Zack, she had to think of a way to get the medicinal herbs through Benny. he same time, Mabel was scrolling through her phone in the living room. At the She saw Bobby, a senior executive of Swanson Universal Entertainment, being arrested for harassing celebrities employed by him. She didn’t follow the entertainment industry, so she absent–mindedly scrolled through the news. However, after scrolling through this news, the next news made her eyelids twitch violently. [The only daughter of the Clark Fashion Group’s CEO, Pamela Clark, bullied Zara Wentworth, who has just won the acting award. She is currently detained for ten days for defamation. “Pamela?” Mabel could not help but exclaim. She hurriedly clicked on the details. Chapter 222 The most popular news post was a surveillance video, She quickly clicked on the video and saw that Zara seemed to have drunk too much. She held a glass of red wine and walked unsteadily towards the bathroom. However, at this moment, Pamela came out of the toilet and the two of them bumped into each other. Pamela was fine, but the hem of her dress was drenched in red wine. Zara, on the other hand, was a little miserable. She fell backward from the impact. From her expression, one could tell that it was a painful fall. Zara could not care less about the pain. She stood up and bowed to Pamela repeatedly to apologize. However, Pamela refused to let go. She kept hitting and scolding Zara the entire time, and the video ended abruptly. However, Mabels sharp eyes caught a glimpse of the last second of the video. Just as Zara was about to snatch her phone back, a familiar figure appeared in the video. Although it was only for a second, Mabel immediately recognized the figure as Melody. She thought, ‘Melody again! I am not quakfied to attend the banquet that Pamela went to today. Why was Melody able to go? … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 222” »
Chapter 221 Melody opened her mouth, wanting to show her determination, but she swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue. She knew that actions were always more effective than words. Moreover, if Ken really had no intention of starting a war with Ulric, before he changed his mind, she should not think about dragging Ken down with her. Everyone had their own life plan. Ken’s plan was to do Ximber Tech well, but her plan was to take revenge. They had two completely different lives. Even though she was reborn, she should not casually change the lives of innocent people. However, poaching Zack was something she had promised Ken, so she would definitely do her best to fulfill it. “Til do my best,” Melody said after some thought. Soon, the car arrived at the neighborhood of the Fox family. Thank you. I’m leaving” Melody nodded politely at ken as if the relationship between the two of them had returned to the beginning. Just as Melody was about to open the car door, her left wrist was suddenly grabbed by a large hand. “Melody Melody subconsciously turned around and met Ken’s o eyes which were as deep as obsidian “What is it?” she asked. Ken’s thin lips moved slightly. “You’re acting very strange today” There was an indescribable strangeness as if an invisible barrier had suddenly formed between them. “How am I strange? Melody asked. Ken opened his mouth and swallowed his words after two seconds. He shook his head and said, “It’s fine. You can leave “Okay.” Melody replied. However, Ken did not let go. She could only remind him, “Your hand.” Ken seemed to have come back to his senses and quickly let go of her wrist Melody was able to get out of the car smoothly In the car, Ken watched Melody’s figure disappear at the entrance of the neighborhood before looking away. He felt indescribably annoyed. Instead of driving away, he lit a cigarette and called james “Mr. Swanson” James said on the other end of the phone, “Miss Wentworth has been safely sent to her dormitory. Do you have any other instructions!” Ken said, “Immediately investigate how Melody made Zack agree to talk to her about jumping ship” James asked in surprise, “Zack actually agreed!” Ken said. “Cut the crap. Investigate immediately.” On the other end of the phone, James was shocked. He felt that Ken was especially scary that day. He did not dare to say anything else and quickly began to investigate. Soon, he found the results. “Mr. Ken, I’ve found it.” Ken said. “Shoot “Miss Fox, she…” James hesitated. There was still shock in his tone. He paused for a moment and continued, “I can’t explain it in one or two sentences. I’ll send you a video call directly!” Ken said. “Send it over.” James said, “Yes” Ken hung up the call and quickly received a video call from James. The video was a surveillance video. It was at the traffic light in front of the back door of River Hotel He pressed the play button and saw Zack crossing the road while making a call. Zack did not notice that a sports car had turned the corner and was 10:07 AM ₫ ₫ Chapter 221 speeding towards him. Just as Ken thought that something was going to happen to Zack, a familiar figure rushed towards him at high speed, just as the sports car was about to hit Zack Nelson, she used the weight of her body to push Zack to the side, avoiding the impact of the sports car.. In the surveillance footage, Ken could clearly see that the sports car would have hit Melody if she was a second late. He thought, That girl… actually exchanged her life for a chance to talk to Zack! She actually felt that a chance to talk to Zack was more important than her life. How could she smile while talking about this? She is so stupid. Ken’s eyes were extremely dark. He opened his contact list and was about to call Melody However, before the call could connect, he quickly hung up That girl’s family was not like the Swanson family. Ken felt that a call from him might cause her trouble. Thinking of this, Ken switched to the bank app. He directly transferred Melody 2 million dollars. 20 million dollars was a little too much. According to to that girl’s … Read More “Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker CHAPTER 221” »
