Chapter 1165
Zhang Wenwen was the first to get the tablet. She handed it to Melody Fox and said gratefully, “Melody, it’s all thanks to you today. Otherwise, we might really have to bear a huge debt. Let the two of us treat today.”
Melody Fox knew that if they didn’t pay, they would feel embarrassed.
Hence, she didn’t stand on ceremony and agreed with a smile. “Alright, I’ll freeload off you guys.”
After ordering, Zhang Wenwen introduced Tong Li to Melody Fox.
“Melody, this is my roommate. I’ve been able to stay in the dormitory for the past two days because I asked her to greet the dormitory manager Auntie. That’s why I can stay in the dormitory.”
“Lily, this is Melody. I told you about him.”
Tong Li nodded and said in admiration, “I’ve long heard about you from Wenwen. The school forum is also filled with videos of your exams. I admire you so much. I didn’t expect to be able to eat with you in person. Thinking about it, it seems worth it if something happens.”
Melody Fox could not help but laugh.
Tong Li continued to say gratefully, “I originally thought that we might be done for this time. Fortunately, you appeared and helped us. Otherwise, we really wouldn’t know what to do. We might even be expelled by the school and face jail time…”
Melody Fox shook his head.
“You don’t have to thank me. I should be the one apologizing to you. Pamela Clark schemed against you not because you had a problem, but because of me.”
“She couldn’t do anything to me, so she turned on you.”
“Fortunately, I happened to be at the mall.”
“But if it weren’t for the fact that she has a grudge against me, you wouldn’t have encountered such a thing.”
“So you really don’t have to thank me. I owe you.”
When Zhang Wenwen heard this, she could not help but worry.
“Melody, that Pamela Clark… Isn’t their family quite well off? I’m afraid that once their family finds out, they’ll start looking for opportunities to deal with you.”
Melody Fox said nonchalantly, “Don’t worry, their family can’t do anything to me.”
“But you’d better be careful. Try not to go out at night. If you need my help, immediately…” Zhang Wenwen stopped mid-sentence and shrugged. “I don’t think I can help you much.” “I really do need your help with something.”
Zhang Wenwen’s eyes lit up. “Tell me!”
“The charity foundation I mentioned to you last time is almost done. I have too many things to do and need someone to help me manage it. This person has to be upright and meticulous. I think you’re the most suitable candidate. I wonder if you’re willing to help manage the foundation while you’re studying?”
“Of course I’m willing! I’m already very happy to be able to help you. It’s just that… I don’t have much experience and am worried that I won’t be able to do it well.”
“You don’t have to be afraid of this. I’ll find someone to guide you in the early stages. I believe you’ll get used to it soon.”
“Alright! I’ll work hard to do my best!”
“Mm, hurry up and eat. The beef won’t taste good if it’s too hot.”
“Yes, yes!”
“Lily, you eat too. Don’t stand on ceremony. Sister Melody is very easy to talk to.”
Tong Li smiled and nodded. She scooped up the largest piece of beef for Melody Fox and placed it in Melody Fox’s bowl.
“Thank you.”
“It’s only right, hehe.”
The three of them put down their heavy topics and happily ate.
However, Zhang Wenwen and Tong Li were the ones making a scene while Melody Fox was laughing.
However, Melody Fox had a natural affinity. Even if she did not speak, the atmosphere would not feel stiff.
Zhang Wenwen had already returned to school, so after eating, she could only bid farewell to Melody Fox since she and Tong Li still had classes in the afternoon.
Tong Li also took the initiative to add Melody Fox as a friend.
“Melody, I have a presumptuous request,” Tong Li said in embarrassment.
“Tell me.”
“I heard from Pamela Clark that you know medicine. I have a relative who’s not in good health. Can you help me visit him? Don’t worry, this relative of mine is very rich. He won’t miss a single cent of the consultation fee. However, it’s fine if it’s inconvenient for you. Just pretend that I didn’t mention it.”
Melody Fox thought about it. Since he had nothing to do in the afternoon, he simply said, “Sure. Where do your relatives live?”
Tong Li scratched her head in surprise. She did not expect that Melody Fox would really agree to her casual suggestion.
Embarrassed, she said, “He’s not Insterimond… he lives in his hometown now.”
After Tong Li gave the address, it was Melody Fox’s turn to be surprised.
“It’s actually that place… Coincidentally, I’m going there to visit my grandmother tomorrow. Tell him in advance. If it’s on the way, it’s fine for me to go take a look.”
“That’s great! I’ll tell my relatives later.”
“Yeah.”
Fox, Melody Fox said to Zhang Wenwen, “I’ll go visit my grandmother tomorrow and return to Silverlake. I might not return to Insterimond within a short period of time. You have to take care of yourself. If anyone comes to trouble you again, tell me immediately. Don’t be afraid of troubling me, understand?”
Zhang Wenwen nodded vigorously.
“Don’t worry, I won’t be afraid to trouble you. If anything happens, I’ll definitely look for you in Room Fox!”
Melody Fox knew that Zhang Wenwen knew what she was doing, so he was slightly relieved.
On the other side.
Pamela Clark was accused of extortion. Manager Chen provided “oral evidence”. Coupled with the surveillance cameras as substantive evidence, the amount involved was huge. Even with Chairman Luo’s help, Pamela Clark was still locked up in the police station and waited for a trial.
However, no matter how much financial and material resources Chairman Luo used, he could not compete with Ken Swanson’s thunderous methods.
It was foreseeable that Pamela Clark would never see the sun outside the prison again.
And in prison, with the help of Aaron Berg and the others, what awaited her would be a life worse than death in prison.
However, after Pamela Clark was locked up, he was still delusional that her father would be able to settle the matter quickly.
Just like the bribery incident at the Insterimond University Special Talent Entrance Examination.
Little did she know that Chairman Luo was already in a terrible fix and could not help her quell this matter.
When Chairman Luo found out that he could not even walk the last path and could not fish out Pamela Clark, he was so angry that he smashed the porcelain bowl in his hand.
With a loud bang, the porcelain bowl shattered. The servants were so frightened that they dodged to avoid being implicated.
Chairman Luo’s face darkened.
In less than half a day, he seemed to have aged by more than ten years.
“Is there no other way?”
The two assistants and the company’s legal team subconsciously lowered their heads, wishing they could find a hole to hide in.
Chairman Luo was even angrier.
His eyes went to one of the lawyers.
This was the most experienced lawyer in the company.
Chairman Luo asked, “The trial will start in two days. What are your chances of winning?”
The lawyer’s chubby body shook, and he lowered his head even more.
“Speak!”
The lawyer wiped the sweat off his forehead and said with a trembling voice, “If they use a lawyer from the Swanson Group, the probability of successfully helping Missy overturn the case is… zero.”
“What did you say?!”
