Chapter 173
James asked in puzzlement, “<b>Wait</b>? What are waiting for?”
“<b>Wait </b>for Ford toe looking for me,” Melody said. T’ve beening here every day recently, and I believe it hasn’t been in <b>vain</b>. It’s just that waiting is not the best way to solve the problem… After pausing for a moment, she added, “I’ll look for Zack directly <b>tomorrow</b>.”
James was <b>shocked</b>. “You’re going to look for him?” he said. “He probably won’t want to see you, right?”
“Not necessarily. Melody said with a faint smile. “Don’t underestimate a woman’s abilities
“A woman’s abilities?” James said, involuntarily ncing at Melody up and down.
He thought. If it were Miss Murphy, Zack would probably fall for the honey trap. <b>But </b>if it’s Melody… forget it. <b>Zack </b>not being scared into <b>having </b>nightmares is considered a good oue. There’s no denying that when ites to looks, Miss Murphypletely outshines Miss Fox
Melody could guess what James was thinking from his expression, but she couldn’t be bothered to exin. She immediately called James to drive off to Herbathrive.
The car soon arrived at the entrance of Herbathrive. She asked James to wait outside while she walked toward
As soon as Melody entered. David weed her enthusiastically like a puppy waggingi
its tail.
Herbathrive<b>.</b>
He said. “Miss <b>Fox</b>! Has the medicine been delivered?”
Melody nodded nomittally and went straight to the backyard, where she <b>found </b>Beverly
Beverly was <b>in </b>a much better mood than that day. She even smiled gently when she saw Melody. “Hey Melody, you’re here,” she said. “Colin just mentioned you earlier.”
Melody <b>sat </b>down opposite Beverly. After routinely taking Beverly’s pulse, she asked, “Mr. Herbert has been mentioning me. Where is he?”
“He went to buy groceries for me, saying he wants to nourish my stomach through diet first,” Beverly said.
As soon as she finished speaking, Colin returned.
Melody did not waste any words. She immediately handed the prescription she had written to Colin.
Colin hurriedly took it. After reading the prescription, his eyes seemed to glow as he looked at her.
He said. “Miss Fox, you, you’re amazing… Truly worthy of being the student whom Mr. Parker highly <b>favors</b>! This prescription of yours is not much different <b>from </b>the prescription I wrote myself, but the few <b>extra </b>medicinal herbs you wrote are simply the finishing touch! The efficacy of <b>this </b>prescription immediately improves!”
Colin’s <b>tone </b><b>was </b>incredibly excited, his voice even trembling-
Beverly, who <b>was </b>beside them, did not know medicine, but hearing Colin say <b>that </b>made her happy too. After all, this prescription would be used <b>to </b><b>save </b>her life.
“Miss Fox, I didn’t expect you to be so talented at such a <b>young </b>age,” <b>Colin </b><b>said</b>. “I’m really not worthy of you calling me “Master If you don’t mind, I’ll call <b>you </b>“Master‘ from now on.”
Melody said helplessly. “Mr. Herbert, I’m <b>going </b>to be really bashful if you call me that. Besides, when I was by my master’s side in the past, I only learned theoretical knowledge. Most of the time, I watched him practice. My practical skills are not as good <b>as </b>yours. I hope you won’t be stingy with sharing and will teach me more in the future.”

Beverly liked Melody a tot, thinking. This young girl is very capable, yet she is good–tempered and humble
She smiled at Colin and Melody, saying, “You two don’t have to insist on calling each <b>other </b>Master. Melody, from now on, you can <b>call </b>him ‘Colin‘, and he’ll call you ‘Melody. As for me, you can call me Bev. No one should be called ‘Master.
This form of address was very intimate. Melody couldn’t wait to get closer to her talent spotter in Silveke during her previous life. She immediately agreed.
After chatting for a while. Beverly felt a little sleepy and went to rest.
Melody stopped smiling and said seriously, “After checking Bev’s pulse carefully this time, I found that her physical condition is very <b>frail</b>, prone to internal chills yet easily gets inmed. ording to traditional medicine, it’s <b>a </b>case of imbnce. If we rely solely on my prescription for treatment, it will work, but the effect will be very slow,
Colin <b>quickly </b>asked, “So based on what you <b>said</b>, how should we treat her?”
“I suggest <b>that </b>she drink my prescription whilebining it with modern medicine treatment,” Melody said. “Her body can’t withstand chemotherapy, so I suggest that after I regte her health for half a month<b>, </b>she should immediately undergo surgery. After the surgery, it <b>will </b><b>take </b>at <b>least </b>a month and at most three <b>months </b>to recoverpletely.”
Colin was against modern medicine. He frowned and said, “Surgery is harmful to the body. It’s fast, but..
reason modern
“Colin, if you trust me, it’s best to do as I say,” Melody said. “Traditional medicine is profound, but there’s a medicine has developed so quickly. I hope you can acknowledge the capabilities of modern medicine in treating cancer.”
After Melody persuaded him for <b>a </b>while, Colin finally nodded out of love for Beverly.
Then let’s <b>not </b>use this prescription for her now,” Melody said. 11 rewrite <b>the </b>prescription and let her regte her health for half <b>a </b><b>month </b>to build a good foundation. This way, her vitality won’t be overly weakened during the surgery.”
“Alright,” Colin said. “Let’s do as you <b>say</b>.”
After the two of them finished chatting, Melody’s phone dinged with a notification <b>sound</b>.
She nced downward and <b>saw </b><b>that </b>it was a message from James, urging her to set off to meet <b>Ken</b>.
Only then did Melody realize that it was already past four o’clock in the afternoon.
She quickly stood up and <b>said </b>goodbye to Colin,
Colin <b>was </b>still unsatisfied. “Time passes too quickly,” he said. “Melody,e over <b>more </b>often whenever you have time. There are still many things I’d like to learn from you. At most, I’ll pay you wages for the time <b>you </b>spending over in the future. How about that?”
<b>Melody </b>smiled and said, “Okay.”
Before leaving, Melody thought of her own <b>medicinal </b>herbs <b>and </b>stopped to ask, “Colin, I <b>want </b>to ask you. Other than the Taylor family in Insterimond, who else has <b>the </b>medicinal herb called Green Velvet?”
“Green Velvet?” Colin said. He thought for a moment before replying, “Someone in Silveke may have it.”
“<b>Who</b><b>?</b>” Melody asked.
“<b>Ruby </b>Taylor,” Colin <b>said</b><b>. </b>“She’s married to the second <b>son </b>of the Taylor family. The Taylor family’s ancestral home is in <b>Silveke</b>. It seems that they are expanding their business there ow. It <b>just </b><b>so </b>happens that she <b>has </be here before for health treatments. If you need it, I’ll help you <b>ask</b>.”
“Alright!” Melody said, hurriedly nodding. “I appreciate your help. This medicinal herb is very important to me. I’ll <b>think </b>of a way to gather the money. As long as she <b>has </b>it, any amount of money is eptable.”

“Sure,” Colin replied. He could not help but ask, “Is it for treating your face?”
Melody <b>said</b>, “<b>Yeah</b>…”
“Rest assured then, Colin said. “I’ll definitely help you <b>ask </b>as soon as possible. As the daughter–inw of the Taylor family, it shouldn’t be a problem for her to get some Green Velvet.”
“Thank you, Colin,” Melody <b>said</b>. After thanking him, she turned around and left.
The Taylor family had also been practicing medicine for generations, but from this generation onward, they had already ventured into the financial industry.

The Taylor family’s Green Velvet was not considered a medicinal herb. It <b>was </b><b>a </b>type of medicinal pill that was c mixing many rare medicinal herbs in appropriate proportions.
That was <b>a </b>secret form passed down by the <b>Taylor </b>family’s ancestors. It wasn’t readily sold and was basically auctioned
off.
The Taylor family had always maintained a cooperative rtionship with Ulric. In Melody’s previous life, she acquired Green Velvet with great difficulty. She only got it after she became Ulric’s right–hand woman.
But in this Hfetime, she was not on <b>Ulric’s </b>side. Naturally, she couldn’t <b>obtain </b>Green Velvet through the Taylor <b>family</b>,
<b>She </b>could only pin her hopes on Ruby.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
She had not had much interaction with Ruby, so she could only wait and see what Colin had to say.
Preupied with something that weighed on her mind, Melody walked <b>out </b>of Herbathrive. However, James did not notice. her expression and started <bining</b>….
“Miss Fox, didn’t you make an appointment with Mr. Ken?” he said. “You stayed inside for so long. What were you doing? 1 hope you can be more punctual in the future.”
<b>While </b><b>James </b><b>was </bining, he finally sensed that something was off and looked over at Melody.
