Chapter 89
This, this… Yolanda was speechless for a long time.
Russell was smarter. He quickly smiled and said, “Surprisingly, Mrs. Margaret has recovered. This is a happy event! What a happy event Mrs. Margaret, congratulations!”
As Russell spoke, he added. “Previously, my countryside daughter was insensible and insisted on treating you. She almost harmed you. Fortunately, you found a famous doctor who saved you. I’m happy for you! Don’t worry. I’ll help you get an explanation for this matter. Well, the truth is, I’ve already helped you deal with it. Not only did I lock that child up. but Ive also crossed her off the family tree. She has nothing to do with me now. If you want to take her away to punish her, I have no rejection!”
The comers of Margaret’s mouth twitched. She couldn’t help but say, “Russell, I remember that you weren’t a fool in the past. Why are you so muddle–headed now?”
Russell was stunned. He did not understand what Margaret meant.
However, he vaguely felt something was wrong, but he could not figure out what was wrong, so he asked directly, “Mrs. Margaret, what do you mean?”
“What do I mean: Hmph!” Margaret snorted coldly and said. “You’re asking me what I mean, but I want to ask you the same question. You locked up the person who saved my life?”
Russell’s mind instantly went blank.
“The person who saved your life?” Russell didn’t even know how he said those words.
The ominous feeling he had just now overlapped with Margarets words, forming a sentence. It was Melody who cured Margaret‘
But how is that possible? Russell’s expression changed again and again. Even though he was extremely good at changing his expression, he did not know what expression to show at that moment…
When Yolanda heard Margaret’s words, her expression was even darker than when she thought she had seen a ghost, thinking. ‘Melody has become the person who saved Margaret’s life! This is like seeing a ghost! I can’t believe that country bumpkin knows medicine. Not only did she know medicine, but she also cured Margaret! What should I do? What should I do now?”
She had offended everyone she shouldn’t have. She was the one who often said the Fox family was going to suffer because of Melody. Now, she was also the one who said that Margaret was a ghost. She had fallen into a situation where she appeared to be a person of poor character.
Yolanda was at a loss and could only ask Russell for help. “Russell. L
“Shut up!” Russell was frustrated and regretful. He remembered that it was Yolanda who cried and said that Melody would ruin the Fox family. That was why he was in such an awkward situation now. He reached out and slapped Yolanda hard.
A crisp sound of a slap rang out, and Yolanda was slapped so hard that she turned her face away.
Russell quickly composed himself. Just as he was about to speak. Ken, who had been silent all this while, spoke first. He spat out three words coldly, “Where is she?”
Russell said awkwardly. “She, she’s in… the garage…”
“Where’s the garage?” Ken asked.
“I’ll bring you there!” Hattie hurriedly went forward and took the initiative to lead the way.

Chapter 89
At this moment, she finally understood that Melody was not overestimating herself, but she did have the ability.
Melody had cured Margaret!
Hattie and Ken rushed to the backyard,
At this moment, Maria had also stopped coughing. Two drops of tears flowed from her turbid eyes
Although she was coughing just now, she had heard what Margaret said.
She did not trust the wrong person! Nor did she defend the wrong person!
The only mistake was that she believed Russell’s words and thought that Melody was reflecting in her room.
Russell stood rooted to the ground. He couldn’t follow Ken to pick up Melody or keep standing rooted to the ground in a dare. He only apologized with a smile, “Mom, Mr. Ramon, Im sorry. The last time Mrs. Swanson came, I thought Mrs. Margaret’s condition worsened because of my daughter, so this misunderstanding happened…”
Russell tried his best to explain, but after what he had said just now, Ramon finally understood what kind of person Russell
was.
When Melody got into trouble, Russell addressed her as a child from the countryside, but when Melody was of use to him, he addressed her as ‘my daughter.”
He was such an extreme egoist.
Ramon admitted he was selfish too, but he was better compared to Russell
Ramon suppressed his disgust for Russell and said in a low voice “Since it’s a misunderstanding, forget it. Don’t punish the child indiscriminately in the future.”
After all, Russell’s daughter had cured Margaret. Even if it was for Melody’s sake, he could not blame Russell too much
“Okay, okay. I was wrong this time.” Russell nodded repeatedly.
However, Margaret was extremely displeased. She held Maria’s trembling hands and turned to look at Russell. “You’d better pray that Melody is fine. Otherwise, I don’t care if you’re Melody’s biological father!”
Russell’s face stiffened and he smiled awkwardly.
Now, he was happy that he did not whip Melody. It’s just a few days of imprisonment. She should be fine.
At the same time, in the backyard.
Ken followed Hattie to an abandoned garage.
There were no windows in the garage. When the door was opened, an unpleasant musty smell came from inside.
He could not help but frown.
For the past four days, he had thought Melody was too lazy to come over and was a little dissatisfied. He did not expect her to suffer like this at home these few days.
Guilt could not help but spread throughout his body.
The garage was very dark. Although he had already walked in, he could not find anyone after searching for a long time because it was too dark inside.
“Melody?” He called out to her, but there was no answer.

Ken instantly had a bad premonition
He quickly turned around and instructed Hattie, “Is there a light Turn it on!”
“Ok!” Hattie was shocked by Ken’s imposing manner, but she quickly returned to her senses and went outside to turn on the lights
With a crisp sound, light instantly filled the entire garage.
The garage was filled with things and was in a mess. The ground was covered in dust. It was obvious that it had been abandoned for a long time.
Ken quickly scanned the entire garage and finally found Melody, who was lying on the ground on her last breath, in a
comer
Her face was flushed red, but her lips were pale. She looked so weak.
“Melody!” Ken quickly ran toward Melody
Melody was already a little delirious, Only the last trace of her consciousness remained.
The moment before she closed her eyes, she could only vaguely see a tall figure running toward her against the light in an imposing manner.
Has the angel come to fetch me? Melody blinked and finally closed her eyes weakly. She fell into darkness.
“Melody! Melody! Wake up!” Ken helped Melody sit up, only to see that she had long lost consciousness. Her entire body was limp, and her exposed arm was terrifyingly hot.
