Chapter <b>137</b>
The old man <b>agreed </b>to Melody’s request without thinking. “Dont worry, I won’t tell him. That kid is <b>always </b>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 <bugh</b>. “You….”
The old man was exactly <b>the </b>same as in her previous life. He was simply <b>an </b>old urchin.
The old man said, “By the way, young doctor, I still don’t know your name?”
Melody <b>said</b>. Just call me Melody
The old man <b>said</b>, “Okay, Melody, just call me Ford.”This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
<b>Melody </b>said, “Alright, Ford. I’ll prepare the medicine for you ording to the prescription. From tomorrow onwards, I’ll prepare the medicine and send it over.”
Ford <b>said</b>, “Alright<b>, </b>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 nced at <b>James </b><b>and </b>asked, “His name is Ford Nelson. Who do you <b>think </b>he is!”
James stopped in his tracks and asked in surprise, “He’s Zack’s grandfather<b>?”</b>
“Yes” Melody did not keep him in suspense anymore. She nodded and said, “That’s right. I found out that he had a back <b>injury</b>. As <b>you </b>know, I have some medical skills, so I took this opportunity to make Zack <b>owe </b><b>me </b>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 <b>to </b>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 <b>said</b>. “Why did <b>you </b>suddenlye 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 <b>in </b>a lot of trouble recently. In addition, thepany doesn’t need me for the time being, so he asked me toe <b>and </b><b>help </b>you.
Melody nodded. “I do have a lot of things to do recently, and there might be more trouble. It’s <b>good </b>for <b>you </b>to help <b>me</b><b>.</b>”
James nodded.
At this moment, Melody’s phone received a call. It was from the bodyguard hiding in the <b>dark</b>.
She raised her eyebrows in surprise. After picking up the call, she lowered her voice and asked, “<b>What’s </b>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 <b>said</b>, “We checked. It’s the butler of your house. He started when we left your house. At first, we thought <b>that</b>
1/3
we were just going the same way, but we saw him <b>sneakily </b>following <b>us </b>to South Alley just now, so we’re sure that he’s here to follow you.”
A cold glint shed across Melody’s eyes.
She thought. Ynda sent the butler to follow me? I thought that Ynda would not make a move until something happened to Maria. It seems <b>that </b>she is always looking for an <b>opportunity</b>.
She pursed her lips coldly and <b>said</b>, “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<b>?</b><b>”</b>
Melody smiled and said. “She wants <b>something </b>on me. Just give it <b>to </b>her. Why are you so petty? Let’s take a taxi and leave.”
James’s <b>mind </b>was filled with questions.
He felt that Miss Fox, like Mr. <b>Ken</b><b>, </b><b>liked </b>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 <b>taking </b>a taxi, he heard Melody say to the driver, Sir, let’s go to the most famous gambling ce in Silveke,
the International Casino.”
James <b>was </b>drinking mineral water. When he heard this, he almost spat out the water. “Miss Fox, you…”
Before James could finish, Melody interrupted him and <b>asked</b>. “Have you been there<b>?</b><b>”</b>
James lowered his voice and said in a voice that only they could hear. “Rather <b>than </b>saying <b>that </b>I’ve been there… Actually, Mr.
Ken owns some of the shares of that ce.”
Melody nodded. “That’s good Driver, if you don’t know the way, he’ll point you out.”
“I know, I <b>know</b>,” the driver <b>said</b>. As he drove, he couldn’t help but persuade her. “Youngdy, I think you’re young. It’s better to not go to this kind of ce.”
“Thank you for your concern. Melody smiled and thanked him, but she did not change her mind.
Seeing this, the driver could only step on the elerator and drive towards the International Casino.
On the way. Melody asked James. “Are you in charge of the ck market?”
James was unlucky. He happened to be drinking water, so when be heard the voice, he choked on the water <b>again</b>.
James coughed for a long time before recovering. He asked in shock, “How, how <b>did </b>you know… that’s our territory? There are less <b>than </b>three people in the world who know about this. Even Miss Murphy doesn’t know…”
Melody did not waste any time and took out the ck market ess card that Ken had given her.
James looked at the card <b>and </b>was even more shocked, “Mr. Ken actually gave you a red card?”
When Melody heard the words “red card“, her expression was a little nk.
<b>2/3</b>
However, she could tell from James’s eyes <b>that </b>the red card <b>was </b>not ordinary.
Melody could not help but ask curiously, “What does the red card represent?”
<b>James </b>said with aplicated expression. “It represents power.
Melody <b>asks</b>, “Power? What do you mean?”
James said. “It means that <b>merchants </b>who have signed a contract with the ck market, regardless of whether they are <b>stall </b>owners or mercenaries, have to listen to you with this card on you. It’s a high–level card from the ck market. Other than Mr. Ken and me, only Mr. Ken’s two friends in Insterimond <b>have </b>it
Ken could trust these two friends with his life. It was normal for them to <b>have </b>a red card. Even J <b>didn’t </b>have a red car, however, Ken had given one to Melody. James could not understand and felt that it was unfair to Miss Murphy.
Melody could not help but be surprised when she heard James’s words.
She thought. It turns out that this card is so rare. Ken is too generous. Alright, since Ken is so generous, I will work harder to help him poach Zack‘
Melody wanted to ask more about the red card, but she could see the displeasure in James’s eyes. She guessed that he might not be satisfied with the red card Ken gave her, so she tactfully put it <b>away</b><b>.</b>
On the way<b>, </b>Melody did not <b>say </b>anything else. <b>Instead</b>, she secretly thought about the use of this red card.
Since <b>the </b>red card was equivalent to having absolute power in the ck market, it would be easy for her to deal with the matter of Ynda buying mercury sulfide.
About half an hourter, the car stopped at the entrance of the International Casino
In her previous life, she had apanied Ulric here. At <b>that </b>time, Ulric had kept losing money. He even lost <b>when </b>he had cards that were definitely going to win.
At that time, she thought that they were unlucky, but now, Melody understood everything
This was <b>Ken’s </b>territory. No matter how good Ulric’s cards were, he could not win.
After all, no <b>matter </b><b>what </b>kind of <b>Casino </b>it <b>was</b><b>, </b>there were more or <b>less </b><b>some </b>high–tech tricks. If the owner didn’t want you to win, you could only lose.
