Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker
Chapter 120

Chapter 120

Colin was an impatient person. When he saw Melody stammering and not mentioning the main point, since this matter concerned Beverly, he did not care if it was his first time meeting Melody and directly urged Melody to get to it.

It was not that Melody had a bad habit of speaking, but she knew that only by saying this could she attract Colin’s attention and make him take her words seriously.

Colin would think she was spouting nonsense if she said too much at first.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Melody finally got to the point. I suspect that your wife might have gastrointestinal problems. Although you’re a traditional medicine practitioner, it’s sometimes difficult for traditional medicine practitioners to sense the problems with the stomach by checking the pulse. So I suggest that when you’re free, you can take your wife to a modern hospital for a stomach checkup and a gastroscope or something”

Melody calculated the time. Beverly either had not developed stomach cancer yet or was still in the early stages of stomach cancer. The possibility of her being cured was very high.

“Intestines?” Colin thought about it and said, “It’s true that my wife’s eating habits are unhealthy. She often skips breakfast. Since you’ve said so, I’ll be more careful in the future. Thank you, Miss Fox.”

Melody nodded, unsure if Colin would bring Beverly to the hospital for a gastroscope as soon as possible.

However, this was the first time she was meeting Colin today. Some things could not be said too directly.

Moreover, it was still carly, so there was no hurry.

At the thought of this, Melody did not say anything else. After saying goodbye to Colin, she left the backyard with David.

On the way, David kept stealing glances at her.

Melody could not help but stop in her tracks and ask with a smile. “Why? Am I so ugly that it makes you curious? Do you want to take a closer look?”

“No, no, no!” David waved his hand. “I just think you’re amazing and I’m very envious

“Envy me?” Melody laughed self–deprecatingly and said, “If you know me, you definitely won’t envy me.”

as not the worst in the world. However, it must be much worse than David’s

Her life was

To die at the hands of her stepsister and the person she loved the most, this kind of pain was something that ordinary people would not be able to experience.

However, David revealed an even more envious expression. Then, he sighed and said, “Miss Fox, you’re so young, but you can already have such a master as your teacher. In the future, you might even have the chance to consult in Herbathrive. But I can only be a clerk now…”

Melody’s expression changed. Her expression darkened as she warned, “David, I trusted you, and that’s why I didn’t avoid you when I talked about my teacher. So, I hope I won’t hear you mention my teacher again in the future, and don’t mention the conversation I had with Mr. Herbert to anyone.”

David realized he had said too much and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry! Miss Fox, I just subconsciously..”

“Please control your subconsciousness in the future, Melody said solemnly.

David quickly replied, “Okay!”

Seeing that he was extremely regretful and guilty, Melody no longer had a dark expression and only said, “It’s good that you

remember. I still have to go back and make the medicine. I’ll leave first

“Take care!” David bowed respectfully to Melody.

At first, David only felt guilty toward Melody and was grateful that Melody knew about his mistake but helped him hide it.

However, now that he knew that Melody might be the disciple of a master like Quentin, he respected Melody even more because he wanted to learn traditional medicine well.

Seeing this. Melody was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, she said, “If I can come to Herbathrive to consult in the future. I suggest to Mr. Herbert that you help me.”

“Really?” David’s eyes instantly lit up.

Melody nodded and instructed, “Learn from your teacher well. Even if you’re only a clerk now, if you want to become a good traditional medicine practitioner, you have to be familiar with the medicinal properties of all the herbs before you can prescribe an effective prescription.”

“Okay!” David straightened his back and almost bowed to Melody again.

Melody did not stay any longer and left with the herbs..

Herbathrive was near an ancient city in Silverlake. There were many tourists, and online taxis were not allowed to enter at will, so it was not easy to get a car.

Melody carried the herbs and prepared to take a taxi after walking farther.

However, when she took a shortcut and passed by a small alley, she saw a few men in black clothes and black masks standing at the intersection in front.

She subconsciously turned her head to look behind her. A few men in black were standing there at the alley’s entrance.

At this moment, she was alone in the alley. There was no doubt these people were coming for her.

Melody narrowed her eyes coldly and asked, “Who are you? Who sent you here?”

The man in black in front sneered and walked forward. “Someone paid for your hands. You’d better cooperate, lest my saber

misses.

“Buying my hands? Melody curled her lips coldly and clenched her fists. “Come on then. Let’s see if you can take my hands

away.”

When the man heard this, his eyes, which were not covered by the mask, revealed a surprised expression.

Usually, when young girls of this age encountered such a thing, they would have fainted or screamed in fear

This ugly freak in front of me has some guts. The man quite admired Melody.

However, he had to do his job after taking the money. It was useless no matter how much he admired her.

The man in black waved his hand and said fiercely. “Go! Take her hands so we can report back!”

-The employer wanted two hands. He only needed to bring people to cut off Melody’s hands.

As for whether the other party could survive, he didn’t care.

With the man’s order, the two groups of people in the alley immediately rushed toward Melody.

Seeing this, the man couldn’t be bothered to watch the bloody scene. He lowered his head and scrolled through the

beautiful women in the short video on his phone.

“Hey, this woman is awesome!” he said to himself.

It was as if he was playing with his phone at home and not here to chop off someone’s hands.

However, in the next moment, they heard wails coming from the alley.

The man did not care at first. After all, it was painful when one’s hands were cut off.

However, he immediately sensed that something was wrong because the wail was not from a woman, but a man.

He stopped playing with his phone and turned to look into the alley.

He was shocked when he saw it.

He saw his men lying in the alley. No matter how hard they struggled, they could not even get up.

Beside them stood an expressionless girl. At this moment, the girl was walking toward him step by step. It was as if she was walking with the wind. A murderous aura surged toward him as if she was an envoy from hell

This… how is this possible? The man’s eyes widened in horror, and the phone in his hand fell to the ground in fear. The woman on the phone screen was still dancing passionately, but he couldn’t care less about looking at her. He only instinctively felt fear.

“You you.” The man was so frightened that he stuttered.
