Chapter 104
Hattie was also shocked when she saw this. She quickly went forward and tried to stop Melody, “Miss Melody, what’s wrong? Let go of her quickly.”
Melody pretended not to hear Hattie’s words and only stared coldly at the maid with a sharp gaze.
“Pain! You can feel pain too? When you drugged my grandma, why didn’t you know that my grandma would feel pain and discomfort!” Melody asked.
The maid’s heart skipped a beat, and she fell silent. It was as if she was suffocating.
“Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you surprised that I suddenly exposed you? Huh?” Melody continued.
“I, I… I didn’t!” The maid finally came back to her senses and subconsciously denied it.
Hattie, who was beside her, was stunned.
“Wait… What drug? Melody, what are you talking about?” Hattie was so shocked that she even forgot to address Melody respectfully.
As Melody controlled the maid, she stuffed a bag of paper into the maid’s mouth to prevent her from shouting and attracting people over. Melody explained, “Hattie, I won’t hide it from you. When I first checked Grandma’s pulse, I noticed that someone had poisoned Grandma’s medicine. This poison is called mercury sulfide. You must have heard of it. Taking it for a long time will cause death.”
Hattie’s eyes instantly widened as she looked at the maid on the ground unbelievably. “You dared to drug Mrs. Maria? Mrs. Maria treats you so well, so why did you bite the hand that feeds your
The maid had a piece of paper in her mouth and couldn’t speak at all. She could only shake her head vigorously to indicate that she didn’t do it.
Melody sneered and answered on behalf of the maid, “She does bite the hand that feeds her, but the reason… is just ‘money?
Hattie’s brain was already running out. She did not want to think for herself. So, she asked directly. “Are you saying that someone instructed her to do this?”
“Yeah.” Melody nodded.
“Who’s the vicious person? Mrs. Maria is usually very good to everyone and cares for the maids. And she has no enemies. Who instructed her?” Hattie asked.
“What do you think?” This time, Melody did not answer directly. Instead, she looked at Hattie calmly.
Hattie could not help but start to think.
Besides her, there was also a young maid taking care of Maria. She was the one who had introduced the maid to Maria. That maid was reliable and capable.
The two of them were more than enough to take care of Maria. But Yolanda suddenly found a maid to help later. After that, Maria’s health seemed to be deteriorating day by day.
At that time, she had never thought Maria’s health problem would have something to do with this maid.
“Could it be… Hattie’s face was a liule pale. She said with difficulty, “Mrs. Fox…”
Melody did not keep her in suspense anymore. Instead, she nodded slowly. “Yolanda has always wanted to be the only hostess of the Fox family, but as long as Grandma is alive, she has to listen to Grandma. This is her motive. It’s simple and

“Mrs. Fox, she…” Hattie gritted her teeth in anger. Tm going to tell Mrs. Maria immediately!”
“Don’t!” Melody quickly stopped her. “My grandma’s diarrhea was caused by a huge shock these past two days. If you tell her now, her condition will only worsen. Rather than that, why don’t we secretly obtain enough evidence before finding a suitable opportunity to expose Yolanda?*
Hattie was silent for a while before agreeing with Melody.
However, she was still very shocked. She couldn’t believe Yolanda, who looked filial and so concerned about Maria, was so vicious!
However, she already knew Melody very well. She knew Melody wouldn’t lie to her, and there was no need for Melody to lie to her. Moreover, she could tell that Melody was sincere to Maria. She knew Melody wouldn’t use Maria to deal with Yolanda.
“But… is Mrs. Fox that vicious? Hattie still doubted it.
Seeing that Hattie did not completely trust her, Melody took the phone from the maid and said, “In order not to be discovered, she must have contacted Yolanda with her phone. You can check her phone If you still don’t believe me.”
When the maid heard this, she calmed down.
Her phone had a password. Melody couldn’t know her password. She believed Melody couldn’t find evidence as long as she said nothing!
However, from the corner of her eye, she saw Melody quickly click on her phone a few times. Then, her phone unlocked automatically!
Well.. How is this possible? The maid’s face turned pale.
Melody seemed to have guessed what the maid was thinking. The corners of her lips curled up as she said, “I’m sorry. Coincidentally. I’ve learned hacking skills. It’s not a big deal to crack the password on your phone.”
“Hmm….. The maid shook her head desperately and wanted to speak, but she could only make low sounds.
The phone was unlocked, and all the maid’s secrets were completely exposed.
She didn’t have the habit of deleting text messages because she was confident that Maria and Hattie wouldn’t suspect her.
Hence, Melody and Hattie saw all the contents of the messages.
For example, Yolanda asked her to get the poison, and she told Yolanda that she had used up all the medicine. She also told Yolanda about Maria’s health and what had happened..
Seeing this, Hattie finally believed Melody’s words.
She was so angry that she kicked the maid hard to vent her anger
“So what should we do now?” Hattie had no experience in scheming, so she could only ask Melody for advice.
It’s easy. She and this phone are one of the pieces of evidence. However, this woman is very stubborn and won’t admit it casually, so I need you to help me find a place to lock her up first so that Yolanda won’t know the news. In addition, we need to find the place where Yolanda bought the poison and the person who sold it to her. Only when the evidence is complete can Yolanda not be able to quibble,” said Melody.
Hattie thought about it and said, “We can send her to my hometown. My hometown is in a neighboring county. I’ll call my son over to bring her over now. Coincidentally, my son is a police officer. I’ll explain it to my son and let him interrogate

That’s great!” said Melody.
She would let professionals do what they’re good at, and she believed that this maid would give in soon.
Now, she only needed to find where Yolanda bought the poison and convince the shop owner.
However, it was not urgent now. Since Yolanda could bewitch Russel too easily, Melody had to dismantle Yolanda’s position in Russell’s heart bit by bit. Only at that moment could this trump card work.
About an hour later, Hattie’s son came to take the maid away.
Hattie held Melody’s hand and cried her heart out. “Miss Melody, it’s all thanks to you. I wouldn’t have discovered these things if it weren’t for you. You’ve helped Mrs. Maria a lot, and you’ve helped me too! In the past, I had cancer. Mrs. Maria gave me money and found the best doctor to cure me. After I got married, I left the Fox family. More than ten years ago, my husband passed away in a car accident. And Mrs. Maria was willing to let me, who was already so old, return to work and have the money to support my son. She helped me a lot. You saved her, so you saved me. I’ll do whatever you say in the future!”
