Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker
Chapter 97

Chapter 97

Melody choked and did not know how to answer.

She couldn’t possibly say that Ulric cheated her of everything in her previous life and that he tricked her into going to the hospital to have her heart cut out and die

If she said this, she would immediately be taken to the mental hospital.

Fortunately, Ken did not seem to want to know the answer. He did not continue to ask and only said calmly. Til stop joking Look at who the other person on the marriage certificate is.”

“The other person? Melody was surprised, thinking, ‘Is my marriage partner not Ulric?

Melody picked up the marriage certificate she had torn into two halves and thrown on the ground suspiciously. When she saw the name on it, her eyes widened as she looked at Ken in disbelief. “You?”

Ken straightened his back and said expressionlessly. “Tll pay you salary. 100 dollars a day. Just cooperate with me and act for my grandma!

After settling his grandmother, he could rest assured and put the matter of Pearly Antiques on the agenda at the headquarters in Silverlake.

Melody felt that her brain was not working properly. “How come have left the dark and damp abandoned garage and even gotten married to Ken when I wake up?”

She wondered what happened when she was unconscious.

However, she was not stupid. She quickly thought of Margaret based on Ken’s words.

“Margaret wants me to marry you?” she asked

“Or else?” Ken shrugged.

“Alright…” Melody thought, “That makes sense. Why would Ken want to marry me? So, I have somehow married Ken and successfully allied with him?

Ken glanced at her and repeated, “100 dollars a day until we don’t need to stay married to each other. Are you going to do this deal”

Melody’s mind raced.

She was engaged to the Swanson family when she was young. Also, she did need a backer because she had just arrived in Silverlake. The title of Ken’s wife was enough for her to accomplish many things.

Moreover, Russell would not let go of the opportunity to become in–laws with the Swanson family. Instead of being married to Ulric, it was better to cooperate with Ken.

In any case, Ken and her had a common enemy, Ulric.

After a moment of silence, just as Ken was about to lose his patience, Melody suddenly said, ‘One thousand dollars a day. I’m very expensive.”

The corner of Ken’s mouth twitched, and it took him a long time before he said, “Melody, you’re something”

“Thank you. I’ll take it as a compliment. Don’t worry, this price is fair. You’ll know very soon that I’m worth this price,” said Melody.

Tthat so Ken glanced at her from head to toe and his gaze lingered on her chest for a few seconds.

Melody blushed and quickly covered her chest. “What are you thinking? I mean, I can help you with your career.

“Alright” Ken waved his hand and interrupted her. “It’s settled”

“It was only one thousand dollars a day. He didn’t think it would be a loss as long as he could please Margaret”

As for his career, he did not think a girl from the countryside could help him much. She did not seem professional at anything else except for her medical skills.

Thank you, Mr. Swanson!” Melody bowed solemnly to Ken and added. “My salary needs to be settled daily!”

She wanted him to pay her daily because she needed money very much!

However, when Ken heard this, he could not help but look displeased, thinking. She is such a money–loving woman. I did not know why I had agreed to register my marriage with her for Grandmother. However, since things have come to this, I can only suck omit‘

Ken handed Melody a card and reminded her, “As long as you do well, I’ll pay you the day’s salary at midnight, but this has to be kept a secret from everyone. Your only job is to make my grandma happy. Also, don’t announce our marriage to the public now so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. Do you understand?”

“Got it.” Although Melody agreed, she knew very well what he was thinking.

What did he mean by causing unnecessary trouble? Didn’t he say so only because he thought my face would embarrass

m? Men are all like this. Even Ken judges girls on their appearances, Melody thought unhappily.

However, Melody did not know Ken was protecting her by asking her to do so

Melody would be ridiculed for her appearance and upbringing if the news of their marriage went public.

She was a girl after all, so her heart must be fragile.

After giving her the card, Ken prepared to leave

Tm busy. Call me if anything happens. I’ve arranged a nurse for you. You can be discharged tomorrow. I’ve already paid the medical bills for you. Don’t contact me if there’s no need,” said Ken

“Got it.” As she agreed, Melody complained in her hear, “How heartless. We’re still in a one–thousand–dollar–a–day relationship, after all.”

However, it was good that Ken was not around. She could think carefully about how to arrange what to do next.

The road of revenge was long, and she had nothing yet. She had to be careful with every step.

However, soon after Ken left, another guest came to the ward.

Melody looked at the cold beauty who had appeared at the ward door with a slightly surprised expression.

She asked. “Mass Murphy! Are you here to visit me?”

“Huh Janet smiled coldly. She took a few steps forward and said coldly. “I’ve underestimated you, Miss Fox.”

Janet

had never interacted with Melody before, but she had interacted with Mabel.

She also hated Mabel

As expected, people of the same family would always be similar Compared to Mabel, Janet felt Melody was even more

Chapter 97

disgusting

Huh Melody, who was about to thank het, was stunned. So this beauty isn’t here to visit me?”

Sure enough, in the next second, Janet said with disdain. “I was wondering why you, the daughter of the Fox family, went to treat Margaret for no reason. It turns out that you did that for Ken You’re too scheming!”

↑ “Melody was speechless.

“But dont think Ken likes you just because he married you. The person who knows him best in the world is me. He’s just trying to make Margaret happy. Once Margaret doesn’t like you anymore, he ll divorce you immediately because you’re worthless to him and not worthy of him at all, Janet said quickly and fiercely.

“1” Before Melody could say anything, she was interrupted again.

“Don’t let me replace out you’re doing something bad for Ken. Otherwise, I won’t show mercy!” Janet continued.

Melody could not interrupt, so she shut her mouth and waited for Janet to finish.

There are many people who want to marry ken You wont be able to last long by currying favor with Margaret! Well wait and see!” After saying that. Janet turned around and left the ward without waiting for Melody to finish.

Melody did not even have the chance to explain. She just watched as Janet closed the door of the ward.

However, according to Janet’s reaction, she quickly analyzed the reason and realized Janet liked Ken

Tik Bad news, Melody muttered to herself.

Janet was not an opponent who was easy to deal with. In this life, Melody orginally did not intend to be enemies with Janet, but they still became enemies by a freak combination of factors

Although Melody didn’t like to cause trouble, she wasn’t afraid of trouble.

If Janet did something overboard to her, she would not be soft–hearted.

At the same time, on the eleventh floor of the inpatient department.

Fairlee came to the hospital to visit Barclay.

Barclay had been seriously injured and hospitalized after Melody asked the bodyguards to beat him up at Margaret’s birthday party.

He couldn’t hold his anger back these days, but his parents wouldn’t let him have any more conflicts with the Fox family. And also the Swanson family,

Now that he saw Fairlee, Barclay immediately propped himself up on the edge of the bed.

He said, “Fairlee! You have to avenge me!”
