Chapter <b>124</b>
When Melody called herself Ken’s “wife,” she looked nonchnt because she had never taken their marriage seriously.
After all, she did not have any romantic feelings for Ken.
When Margaret found <b>a </b>more suitable candidate, she and Ken could get a divorce at any time. Therefore, she <b>only </b><b>said </b>the word “wife” for joking
However, when Ken heard the word, he somehow felt sonsething strange.
However, he quickly regained his usual cold expression and asked indifferently, “What do you want the pass for? No matter what you went to the ck market forst time, there’s no need to go there again in the future.”
“I have no choice. Melody spread her hands <b>and </b>said. “Your ck market has too many rare medicinal herbs unavable on the regr market. Please give me one.”
As Melody spoke, she added, “I don’t have the money to buy a pass now, but I won’t let you lose out. Let me tell you a business opportunity. Buy as many houses <b>as </b>you can in Eastern Garden.”
“Eastern Garden?” Ken raised his eyebrows slightly and revealed an expression that said, “Are you kidding me?”
“That’s right, Eastern Garden” Melody looked firm<b>.</b>
Ken nced at her <b>and </b>said, “Don’t tell me you used all 8 million dors to buy a house in Eastern Garden.
“That’s right. I bought ten sets and haven’t had time to sign them yet,” said Melody.
Ken was stunned again. Then, he frowned and said, “Since you haven’t signed the contract, don’t buy it. It’s located in the suburbs of Silveke. It’s inconvenient in all aspects, <b>and </b>the property price has been falling. As far as I know, this building has been <b>on </b>sale for a long time and hasn’t been sold out until now, which means there’s no prospect
“No,” Melody said firmly, “Believe me. I won’t <b>frame </b>you.
“Up to you.” Ken threw her a <b>pass </b>and said expressionlessly. “If you lose everything, don’te crying to me.”
Melody pursed her lips and muttered inwardly, ‘If you don’t believe me, forget it. The housing price will increase very <b>quickly</b>, <b>and </b>it will soar!
It was a pity she did not have more money to buy houses. Otherwise, she would buy all the ones avable.
With this thought in mind, Melody lowered her head to look at the pass that Ken had thrown at her. She saw that it still had the iconic wolf head of the ck market <b>on </b>it, but the color was red
“This Why is the color different?” Melody asked.
Ken nced at her. “Just take it. If any assassins from the ck markete looking for you in the future, just take out this card. Then, they won’t hurt you.
“Okay… Melody nodded. It was fine as long as she could enter the ck market.
As for those assassins, it <b>was </b>true that she had not trained in her <b>new </b>life. Otherwise, even if a few more people from the Crimson Team came, she could still deal with them.
The car <b>arrived </b><b>at </b>the Fox family’s <b>house </b>in the blink of an eye.
<b>Ken </b>said concisely, “Go back and pack your things. From today <b>coward</b><b>, </b>you’ll stay with my grandmother in the Swanson family’s house.”
Chapter 191
Melody was stunned and quickly refused. “No need… I’m fine staying at home. Moreover, I have to treat my grandmother’s illness <b>and </b><b>can’t </b>leave. Besides, I’m afraid Astrid will kill me if I <b>stay </b>at the Swanson family’s <b>house</b>.”
<b>She </b>had too many things to do recently and did not <b>have </b>the time to deal with Astrid for the time being.
Moreover, Ulric lived in the Swanson family’s residence. She was afraid that she would kill Ulric without caring about the
consequences.
Ken frowned again when he heard <b>what </b>she <b>said</b>. He said coldly, Up to you!”
Melody nced at Ken and knew that he was angry.
“Ken is rich but has a bad temper, but I can’t leave now <b>and </b>can’t go to the Swanson family, Melody thought.
Hence, Melody only thanked him before opening the car door and leaving
However, when she got out of the car, she saw two men in ck standing not far away from her.
Just as she was wondering if these two people were also killers, she heard Ken’s voiceing from the car. “They’re my people. They’ll ensure your safety
“Thank you, but I don’t think I need… Before she could finish her sentence, Ken’s <b>car </b>had already left, leaving behind a trail of exhaust fumes.
“Ahem…” Melody covered her nose
and coughed.
The two bodyguards happened to walk to her. “Miss Fox, we were sent by Mr. Ken to protect you. If you have any orders, feel free to instruct <b>us</b>
“I do <b>have </b>an order.” Melody poked the biceps of one of the bodyguards and nodded <b>in </b>satisfaction. “I usually don’t have any trouble, so I don’t need you most of the time. How about this? When my life isn’t in danger, please don’t appear. Otherwise, it will be too eye–catching
<b>“</b>Got it! <b>Miss </b>Fox“” The two bodyguards bowed slightly to her <b>and </b>turned to leave. Soon, they disappeared into the darkness. If one did not look carefully, they would not be able to see them at all.
Only then did Melody feel relieved. She carried the herbs into the back door of the vi.
She couldn’t announce that she was treating <b>Maria </b>for the time being, so she avoided people as much as possible.
Fortunately, she <b>did </b>not encounter anyone on the way to the backyard. She sessfully brought the medicinal herbs to <b>Maria’s </b>room.
<b>Maria </b>slept most of the time and was awake for only a while recently. When Melody entered, Maria <b>was </b>still unconscious.
When Hattie saw her return, she stepped forward to wake <b>Mariajup</b>.
“<b>Don’t</b>.” Melody <b>quickly </b>stopped Hattie <b>and </b><b>said</b><b>, </b>“Wake Grandma up after the medicine is ready–She’s weak now, so it <b>won’t </b>hurt to sleep a little longer.”
“Okay” Hattie nodded repeatedly, believing Melody’s words without a doubt,
Melody walked around Maria’s room and used the testing software she had created to confirm no bugs or cameras were there. Then, she started to prepare the medicine in the room in <b>peace</b>,
When the medicine was ready, Maria happened to wake up.
After Maria drank a bowl of medicine, Melody sighed in relief.

Her medicine <b>could </b>not only cure Maria’s illness of not being able to take care of herself, but it could also dissolve the mercury sulfide inside her body.
It wouldn’t take long for Maria to recover.
However, the damage caused by the poison was irreversible. Even if Maria recovered, she would still have to keep taking traditional medicine. However,pared to now, the side effect of the remaining poison were almost negligible.
After Maria <b>took </b>the medicine, she fell asleep again not long after.
Soon, the sky began to darken.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
Just as they were about to <b>have </b>dinner, the phone in Melody’s pocket rang.
Melody <b>took </b>out her phone and looked at it. She realized the ringing phone was not hers but from the maid Ynda had nted in Maria’s room.
She immediately turned on the phone with interest and saw Ynda’s message. I left the stuff in the usual ce. Remember to pick it up tonight.]
The usual ce<b>? </b>Melody scrolled through the <b>chat </b><b>history </b>and quickly <b>found </b>“<b>the </b>usual ce.”
It was under a pot of aloe vera in the backyard.
She followed the maid’s chatting habits and replied, “Got it.”
After <b>that</b>, Ynda asked about Maria <b>again</b>.
Melody continued to talk about Maria’s recent situation ording to the maid’s chatting habits. [Mrs. Maria’s condition is not very good. She can barely take care of herself. She pooped in bed twice today.]
