Chapter 1243

After a while, Ulric Swanson returned.

“Tell me, how’s the investigation going?”

Daniel Townsend immediately looked at Jennie Taylor. Jennie Taylor took a step forward and said, “I found it. Fortunately, it’s not a big deal. Last night, Ken Swanson and Melody Fox went to Back Wave KTV and played Truth or Dare with a group of people from Herbathrive. That Instagram was a punishment.”

Ulric Swanson’s expression immediately changed.

Daniel Townsend felt uneasy. Just as he was worried that Ulric Swanson was about to flare up, he heard Jennie Taylor say, Although it’s not a big deal, I think we can’t let our guard down.”

Ulric Swanson looked at Jennie Taylor.

“Didn’t you say it was just a game? Why do you say that? Aren’t you making a fuss over nothing?”

Jennie Taylor shook her head. “That’s not true. We found out that Ken Swanson is just playing a game, but others don’t think so. Ken Swanson and your every move have always been watched by a group of people. Many people might misunderstand his actions this time. Perhaps there will be a chain reaction that we don’t expect, so we have to be more vigilant.”

Ulric Swanson’s expression softened.

“You’re right. We can’t let our guard down.”

Jennie Taylor nodded.

“You’re right. However, we don’t have to be too cautious. I boldly suggest that we focus on working with Insterimond first… As for Ken Swanson, it’s enough to send Daniel Townsend to keep an eye on them.”

Ulric Swanson nodded.

“That’s right. You’re in charge of keeping an eye on Insterimond. You’re in charge of Ken Swanson. You’re in charge of Daniel Townsend. The two of you have to cooperate well. Now is the most important and difficult moment for us. Everyone has to unite.”

Daniel Townsend Jennie Taylor synchronized said with a yes. After leaving, Daniel Townsend heaved a sigh of relief and said to Jennie Taylor in admiration, “Sister Jennie, you still know how to speak. If it were me, I would definitely be scolded badly by Second Young Master.”

Jennie Taylor did not answer Daniel Townsend. She only reminded him, “It’s not easy to follow Ken Swanson. His people are all around him. You have to be extra careful. If you really can’t keep an eye on him, then get someone else to keep an eye on him.”

“You mean Melody Fox?”

Jennie Taylor nodded and continued, “Other than Melody Fox, there are also people who are close to him, such as Sid Quant and Herbathrive. Keep an eye on these people. You don’t need to keep an eye on Ken Swanson to know his movements.”

Daniel Townsend quickly cupped his hands.

“I’ve learned my lesson.”

Jennie Taylor glanced at Daniel Townsend as if she was looking at an idiot. “This is common sense. You should eat more walnuts to nourish your brain in the future.”

Daniel Townsend’s expression changed slightly. In the end, he laughed dryly. “Yes, you’re right. I’ll go back and nourish my brain.”

Jennie Taylor raised her eyebrows and left.

Daniel Townsend stared at Jennie Taylor’s back. His smile slowly faded and his eyes narrowed with hatred.

If not for Jennie Taylor’s appearance, he would have been the only popular person around Second Young Master.

However, ever since he had this Jennie Taylor, Second Young Master clearly did not think as highly of him as before.

There were many things that the Second Young Master did not tell him and only told Jennie Taylor. This sense of danger made him feel very depressed.

Moreover, Second Young Master had said that he was in charge of keeping an eye on Ken Swanson, Jennie Taylor, and Insterimond. However, he knew that Insterimond’s mission was the most important.

This meant that he had to do the unimportant work. In the past, this did not exist at all.

“Damn it…” Daniel Townsend clenched his fists tightly. Right at this moment, one of his subordinates walked forward and whispered, “Daniel, this Jennie Taylor looks down on you so much. In the future, when Second Young Master ascends to that position, will Jennie Taylor directly step on you?”

“How dare she?!”

Daniel Townsend roared angrily, scaring the subordinate into shrinking back.

But then, the subordinate spoke again, “Daniel, I was promoted by you single-handedly. You’re the only boss in my heart. Even Second Young Master… is not as important to me as you are to me. So, I mustered my courage and wanted to say a few words to you…”

Daniel Townsend was very happy with this. He calmed himself down and patted his shoulder. “Tell me! I really treat you as my brother.”

The subordinate nodded and said, “Forgive me for being blunt, but the current situation is very disadvantageous to you. Second Young Master clearly values that Miss Lynch more…

Daniel Townsend’s expression darkened.

That was what he had thought just now.

“What are you going to say?” Daniel Townsend asked.

The subordinate looked around and only spoke after confirming that there was no one nearby.

“I think… you’re also looking for a way out for yourself.”

Daniel Townsend frowned.

“What escape route?”

“This… is not something someone of my status can think of. You have to think about it carefully. I just don’t want to see you sacrifice everything for Second Young Master in the end and get nothing. If the Second Young Master succeeds, perhaps everything will be fine, but what if he fails? Will he protect you or Jennie Taylor?”

Daniel Townsend fell into deep thought.

His subordinate stopped and did not continue speaking.

On the other side, Melody Fox, who had been tormented for the entire night, was already sunbathing when she woke up. She was woken up by the ringing of a phone.

She looked at the screen and saw that it was an unknown number.

Puzzled, she picked up the call and heard Le Qing’s voice coming from the phone.

“Melody, have you had lunch?”

Melody Fox cleared her throat.

“Not yet.”

“That’s great. My mother will be cooking soon. If you don’t mind, why don’t you come to my house to eat? I’ve already told Margaret that she’ll come over for lunch too.”

Melody Fox’s expression changed slightly.

Even Margaret Swanson was mentioned. She had no chance of rejecting him.

Otherwise, if Margaret Swanson went but she didn’t, it would seem even more ostentatious than Margaret Swanson.

Melody Fox suppressed her emotions and said, “Alright, it’s my honor for your mother to cook personally. I’ll definitely be there.”

“Okay, that’s good. That’s all for now. I’ll wait for you at home.”

“Well …”

After the call ended, Melody Fox looked at the bedside-

Ken Swanson had clearly left a long time ago. There was no warmth left on the pillow.

This guy didn’t even call her when he went to work.

After torturing her for the entire night, he was in high spirits! A heartless man!

However, when Melody Fox turned around, she saw a note on the bedside table.

Puzzled, she picked it up and read it. It was written by Ken Swanson:

“It’s been hard on you last night, so I didn’t wake you up. I’m a little busy today, but I’ll try my best to rush over when it’s time.”

Signed: Hubby.

For information, Ken Swanson could send WhatsApp messages or inform Seventeen or James Deeds. However, he still wrote a note and placed it at the head of the bed.

She had done this so that after he left, she would still retain the warmth of her feelings.

Whether a man was willing to put in the effort for you depended on the details.

Melody Fox had always known that Ken Swanson was actually not a person with many romantic cells. On the contrary, his life was actually very monotonous.

However, this seemingly simple detail was precisely the romance that Melody Fox pursued.

Melody Fox gripped the note tightly. The unhappiness from before was swept away.
