Chapter 203
J held onto thest bit of hope in her heart. She felt that the Murphy family did things wlessly. Ken was at most suspicious and could not trace things back to her.
Ken took a deep look at
Without saying <b>a </b>word, he walked to the swivel chair behind the desk <b>and </b>sat down with <b>an </b>imposing aura.
J was filled with apprehension as she turned to look at JamesContent (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.
James wanted to help J, but Ken was sitting in front of him. He did not dare to make a sound and only lowered his head pretending not to see J’s pleading gaze.
When J saw James’s reaction, the hope in her heart instantly disappeared.
As expected, Ken still found out about it.
Just as J did not know how to deal with the current situation, she saw Ken take out a cigarette from the cigarette box. He hit it between his lips and was about to light it when he seemed to have thought of something in the next second. He suddenly stopped lighting the cigarette and held it between his fingers.
J’s heart trembled slightly.
She had advised Ken not to smoke if he had <b>a </b><b>cold</b>. He seemed to remember <b>that</b>.
She thought. Does this mean that he actually has me in his heart?”

J suddenly gained courage. She took a deep breath <b>and </b><b>said</b>. “Ken, if you have something to say, just say it. If you’re here for Melody, then I admit that I did it. But <b>I </b>don’t think I’m at fault”
After saying that, Ken’s expression was indistinguishable. He only said with a gloomy gaze. “Tell me your mo
J’s expression froze as she thought. “Motive! Isn’t <b>that </b>the term used when interrogating criminals?
motive.”
She said humiliatingly. “I just want you to understand that it won’t do you any good to be too close to Melody. Ximber Tech is at the most important stage. After this stage, your identity will be revealed sooner orter. At that time, you will be worshipped. Do you want to see her ruin your reputation when that timees?”
“Drag me down.” Ken gave a half–smile. His eyes were filled with coldness.
J subconsciously swallowed before she dared to continue. “Yes. let’s not <b>talk </b>about her image first. Just based on the environment of her family. if she really has anything <b>to </b>do with <b>you</b>, the Fox family will definitely pester you. I don’t want it to be difficult for you to clean up when that timees, so it’s better to make Melody give up as soon <b>as </b><b>possible</b>.”
“Make Melody <b>give </b>up?” Ken chuckled. “What do you think she wants to do to me?”
“Of course…” J clenched her fists and said. “She wants <b>to </b>rely on you to rise to the top
Ken pinched the <b>space </b>between his eyebrows. “Jane, you seem to have forgotten that we’ve <b>already </b>registered our marriage. If she wanted to rely on me to climb up the social <bdder</b>, she would <b>have </b>countless opportunities since she already <b>has </b>the title of Mrs. Swanson, but she didn’t”
J gritted her teeth. “That’s because she wants to cast a long line <b>to </b>catch a big fish and upy this title for a long time.
Ken nced at her indifferently. “J, you seem to have a huge <b>opinion </b><b>about </b>her,”
J <b>was </b>silent for two seconds before she suddenly nodded and said, <b>“</b><b>I </b>admit that I don’t like her, but everything I’ve done is for you. I believe she must have seen that post. If you don’t draw a line with her now, she will only be more unscrupulous.“.
“For me” Ken’s voice was cold. He looked at J expressionlessly. “If it’s for me, there’s no need. Your duty is to design and review the product<b>, </b>not interfere with my private life. You said that Melody is unscrupulous, but what about you! You followed me, took those photos, and posted that post. behind my <b>back</b>. <b>J</b>, seeing <b>as </b>we’ve been partners for years, I’ve put a lid on this for you, and I <b>won’t </b>mention it again, but this is thest time. If there’s a next time. I will kick you out of my <b>team</b>.”
J’s hear tightened. <b>She </b>asked in disbelief, “Ken, what do you mean? You want to chase me out of Ximber Tech for a mere Melody!”
Ken still lit the cigarette in the end, but after <b>taking </b>a puff, he <b>crushed </b>the cigarette butt with his bare hands. That <b>action </b>shocked J.
Ken stood up and said indifferently. “I don’t want to <b>repeat </b><b>myself</b>. You haven’t been <b>back </b>in this country for long, so you might not <b>have </b>adjusted your condition yet. Come back to work when you have.”
J’s face instantly turned pale.

She gripped the <b>hem </b>of her <b>dress </b>tightly, but she could not say a word. Her eyes turned red<b>.</b>
At this moment, her heart ached as if it was pierced by a needle.
Ken did not <b>even </b>look at her. He only <b>said </b>calmly. “Go to the technical department and hand over the work.”
J bit her lower lip and turned around stiffly to walk out.
Although Ken only told her to go back <b>and </b>adjust her condition, she knew that this was a very harsh punishment.
She was not around at the most important stage before the product was introduced, so no matter how popr this product would be in the future. it would not have much to do with her. This was no different from a huge warning,
After <b>J </b>left, James wanted to say something but hesitated. There were a few times when the words were at the tip of his tongue, but he still did not have the courage to say them. He swallowed them again.
Ken nced at James coldly. “You think I’m cold–blooded?
James opened his mouth and shook his head. “No…”
Ken raised his eyebrows and said, “If I were cold–blooded and disregarded old feelings, I wouldn’t have given her this chance”
James took a deep breath and mustered his courage to say, “But, Mr. Ken… Miss Murphy did everything for you. If you let her go home and adjust, wouldn’t the punishment be too severe!”
“For me!” Ken found it funny. “Do you <b>really </b>think so <b>too</b>?”
James choked. He realized that he could not answer this question immediately.
“That’s enough.” Ken looked at the <b>time </b>and said. “Go meet people from Taynorma Capital and then return to Serenity

James quickly responded. He could not help but ask excitedly. “Mr. Ken, can Ie back and be with you?”
n <b>was </b>unperturbed. “You are far more useful being with Melody <b>than </b>being me. Help her poach <b>Zack </b>and <b>you </b>cane back.”
Ken
<b>James </b>said. “Yes!”
He thought. What if Miss Fox can not poach Zack? Then wouldn’t I never be able to return <b>to </b>Mr. Ken’s side for the rest of my life?
On the way. Ken received a call from Margaret, “Grandma…
<b>As </b>soon as he opened <b>his </b>mouth. Margaret interrupted him and asked, “Ken, why did I hear Astrid say that Cadence’s condition was <b>not </b><b>so </b>serious that she needed to be hospitalized? Moreover, your staff were <b>blocking </b>the <b>entrance </b>of the hospital. Even she and Cadence’s father could not <b>go </b>in to visit?”
Ken’s expression did not change. He asked, “What did she tell you?!”
Margaret was silent for two seconds before saying truthfully. “She said that it’s because Wendell doesn’t agree with you on the project, so you.. Ken, if that’s the <b>case</b>, no matter what, you can’t take your anger <b>out </b>on Cadence”
Ken asked calmly, “Grandma, do you also think that I’m abusing my power?”
Margaret was silent for a while before saying. “Of course, Grandma doesn’t think you’re that kind of person. It’s just that yesterday, she was still fine. Why did her condition <b>suddenly</b>… be so serious?“.
