Chapter 1181
Fifty minutes later, the car entered Jinxiu Town.
At the entrance of Silken Town, a few huge rocks with the words “Silken Town” on them came into view.
Melody Fox deeply felt what it meant to be homesick.
Seeing that they were only two minutes away from their destination, Melody Fox nervously tugged at Ken Swanson’s sleeve.
Ken Swanson hugged her waist and said in a low voice, “Don’t be nervous. She’s your biological grandmother after all. It’s impossible for her not to see you.”
Melody Fox nodded.
She was about to say something when Ken Swanson’s phone rang.
No one knew what the person on the other end of the phone said, but Ken Swanson replied, “Got it. Send me the address.” Then, he said to Melody Fox, “Your French embroidery master is called Ciyu, right?”
Melody Fox hummed and asked, “What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly asking about this?”
Ken Swanson said, “The young lady at the airport today is called Ci Ailin. Ci Yu is her aunt.”
Melody Fox’s eyes widened in surprise.
“No wonder she said… she’d seen a picture of me in her aunt’s room.”
“Yes. I asked them to send the address over.
Melody Fox nodded. “I’ll also pay my respects at Master’s grave. Master’s grave should be in Silken Town.”
“Alright, I’ll arrange something for you to worship in advance.”
Melody Fox smiled. “Thank you, hubby.”
Ken Swanson raised his eyebrows.
The word ‘thank you’ was followed by the word ‘husband’, which sounded quite pleasant.
At Fox, the car arrived in front of a small bungalow in town.
“Sir, Miss Fox, we’re here.”
Aaron Berg stopped the car and turned to remind the two of them.
After the incident with Ci Yu, Melody Fox was no longer as nervous as before.
She bowed and got out of the car, sizing up the small bungalow in front of her.
This small building was built after Russell Fox made a name for himself. It had a total of four floors, and every room on each floor had a balcony.
In front of the first floor was a small courtyard with many flowers and plants.
A familiar figure was watering the plants.
Melody Fox recognized the other party at a glance and said with a choked throat, “Hattie Meyer…”
The person who was watering the water paused and looked up in the direction of the voice in surprise.
The moment she saw who it was, the water in Hattie Meyer’s
canteen poured on her feet, but she did not feel anything. She only widened her eyes in surprise.
“Miss Melody?!”
Melody Fox ran over with red eyes and hugged Hattie Meyer.
Hattie Meyer also cried and hugged Melody Fox back.
After a while, Ken Swanson walked forward to comfort the two of them. Only then did the two of them calm down.
Hattie Meyer wiped his tears and asked, “Miss Melody, Mr. Swanson, why didn’t you tell me before you came? I could have prepared the food you guys came. There are only Maria Fox and me at home. We only make two or three dishes at Fox. But it doesn’t matter. It’s not too late now. There should be people at the market. I’ll go take a look and buy some of your favorites…”
Melody Fox quickly stopped Hattie Meyer, who couldn’t wait to buy groceries.
“Hattie Meyer, stop working. We’re not in a hurry to eat. At most, we’ll go out to eat. Go in and help me tell Grandma…”
Hattie Meyer slapped his forehead and said, “Look at my brain!! forgot to tell you that Maria Fox is not at home now. She will probably only come back after dinner.”
Melody Fox asked, “Where did Grandma go?”
“He went to visit a family in town. That person is Fox years younger. He’s Maria Fox’s friend. He seems to be an impressive figure now. His son is also the leader of our city. He said that he was about to die, so Maria Fox had lunch today and took a car to their house.”
“Do you know their home address?”
“I know,” Hattie Meyer said. “Wait here. I’ll go get the note and come out. Maria Fox gave me the address in case something happened at home.”
“Okay.”
Not long after, Hattie Meyer came out with the note.
Melody Fox glanced at the address on it and handed the note to Ken Swanson in surprise.
Ken Swanson was also surprised.
“What a coincidence…”
The person Maria Fox went to see was Zhang Wenwen’s roommate, the one Tong Li had asked her to see.
Melody Fox nodded. He looked at Ken Swanson and said, “Let’s go over now.”
“Okay.”
Hattie Meyer quickly asked, “Miss, aren’t you going to drink some water? Maria Fox should be back soon.”
“No, I’ll go look for her directly. Go ahead.”
“Then dinner…”
“Don’t worry about us for dinner.”
“Aye… alright.”
Hattie Meyer nodded and watched the two of them leave. His eyes were filled with joy.
She knew that although Maria Fox said that she did not want to
contact Silverlake anymore, she still cared about him.
Now that Miss Melody was here, the knot in Maria Fox’s heart was finally resolved.
The town was not big, but from the Fox family to the Tong family, they still used Fox rooms, which were about half the size of Fox.
It could be seen that the Tong family was indeed a big family. They lived in a luxurious villa with a huge lawn.
As soon as Melody Fox and Ken Swanson got out of the car, they saw more than ten luxury cars parked at the entrance.
At Fox, two bodyguards were guarding the door.
When he saw them walking over, he immediately went forward with a serious expression and asked, “Who are you?”
Without further ado, Melody Fox called Tong Li directly. After
explaining the situation to Tong Li, he handed his phone to one of the bodyguards.
When the bodyguard heard this, he sized up Melody Fox and asked suspiciously, “Are you a doctor?”
Melody Fox nodded.
The bodyguard returned the phone to her and said, “Miss Tong Li is very considerate, but the two of you can leave.”
Melody Fox frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”
The bodyguard said with a complicated expression, “Just this afternoon. Our master left.”
Melody Fox looked up and realized what the bodyguard meant by “gone.”
They were a step too late. Old Master Tong had already passed away.
Melody Fox and Ken Swanson looked at each other. Ken Swanson said, “Then let’s go in and send the old man off for the last time.”
Melody Fox also said, “My grandma is inside now. We’ll bring our grandma back after sending your grandpa off.”
“And your grandmother is … ?”
“She’s the Fox family.”
“Fox… Oh, Old Master’s old friend. Then, please come in. However, there are many people at home today. Please don’t walk around after you enter.”
“I do.”
After letting them in, Melody Fox and Ken Swanson walked across the lawn and arrived in front of the luxurious villa.
Horse banners had already been hung at the door, and a row of fireworks and firecrackers had already been set off.
The flag had been there for a long time. Those who came to mourn would dismount when they saw it.
Fireworks and firecrackers were the tradition of Silken Town.
In the Tang residence, the family wanted to set off fireworks and firecrackers to inform the people nearby that someone had left.
Melody Fox and the others heard the sound of fireworks and firecrackers on the way over. They thought that it was a happy
occasion, but they did not expect it to be because Old Master Tong had passed away.
