Chapter 1267
Russell Fox had a “Melody” on the left and a daughter on the right. Those who didn’t know better would think that he was very close to Melody Fox’s father and daughter.
James Deeds rolled his eyes in his heart.
However, as Ken Swanson’s special assistant, he still had this kind of expression management.
James Deeds smiled and said, “Of course. I’ll arrange for you to meet spaghetti another day.”
“Can’t you do it today?”
“Didn’t you say that there’s no overnight feud between
father and daughter? Then it’s the same if we see spaghetti the next day, right?”
“How is this…”
“Alright, spaghetti is making a fuss now. If you go over now, it’ll be crowded. There’s no need. How about this? You go back first. After everything is settled, I’ll mention this to Miss Fox.”
James Deeds said as he stuffed Russell Fox into the car.
Then, he quickly instructed the driver, “Send Mr. Fox back safely.”
With that, he slammed the door shut and the car sped away without giving Russell Fox a chance to speak.
James Deeds looked at the car driving away and spat hard.
“Pfft! Old fox, are you regretting it now? It’s too late!”
Inside the venue.
Most of them had already left, leaving only a few staff members.
Ken Swanson looked coldly at Le Qing, who was almost screaming crazily. He glanced sideways at his subordinate.
His subordinate understood and stuffed a cloth into Le Qing’s mouth.
Le Qing finally quieted down, but she bit the rag tightly. Her gaze seemed to say that she wanted to kill someone.
He shook his head lightly.
“Through this incident, I think you should have seen it clearly.”
Only then did Le Qing’s gaze fall on Ken Swanson. Her entire body was tense. After her anger subsided a little, she began to feel fear.
She did not know how Ken Swanson would deal with her.
Ken Swanson said in a deep voice, “Miss Le, you should be glad that things didn’t happen as you predicted. Otherwise…” Le Qing’s cheeks were tense, but Ken Swanson’s expression suddenly eased. He even took the initiative to reach out and remove the rag that was covering her mouth. Now that her voice was free, Le Qing immediately said, ” What I said is true. I have no enmity with Melody Fox. I did it for Mabel Fox… That’s why I…”
“I know,” Ken Swanson said before Le Qing could speak.
Le Qing was stunned. Ken Swanson slowly said, “Since you’ve been with my Margaret Swanson for the past few days and it’s your first offense, I’ve decided to give you a chance to redeem yourself.”
Le Qing’s eyes lit up.
Ken Swanson continued, “I believe you’ve finally realized that Mabel Fox is the one behind spaghetti. That’s why you can’t help but want to stand up for her. Little do you know that she’s just pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. She’s just using you to deal with my wife.”
Tears welled up in Le Qing’s eyes.
It was the feeling of finally being understood.
She took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Tell me, how do you want me to atone for my crimes? As long as I can do it, I’ll do it!”
“Very good.” Ken Swanson nodded in admiration. “You only need to use this matter to destroy Mabel Fox’s reputation in your small circle. As for the specifics… Miss Le is a top student. I believe I don’t need to say much about a smart person like you, right?”
Le Qing nodded. “I understand what you mean.”
“In that case, I’ll leave the matters of the venue to you, Miss Le. I believe you can deal with your own crisis.”
“Thank you…” Le Qing bowed deeply to Ken Swanson.
“You don’t have to thank me. I’m willing to let you go just like that, but… things didn’t affect Melody.”
Le Qing felt a chill run down his spine. This Fox Marquis was truly starting to feel some lingering fear.
She said in a hoarse voice, “I didn’t believe it at first… Now I completely understand that you really love Miss Fox. I sincerely wish the two of you to grow old together. Please apologize to Miss Fox on my behalf.”
Ken Swanson raised his eyebrows. From the corner of his eye, he saw a figure walking down from the second floor.
He waved at Le Qing and said, “Go.” Then, he walked towards the stairs.
Le Qing subconsciously turned around and saw a beautiful figure slowly walking down the stairs.
It was Melody Fox.
She had already changed out of her gown and was only wearing the plain white dress from Fox.
However, even though she was wearing a simple dress, it still made her look stylish.
How could she have any chance of winning against such a peerless beauty?
Le Qing laughed self-deprecatingly and stopped looking at them. With a serious expression, she went to deal with the mess left behind.
On the stairs.
Melody Fox walked down carefully in her high heels. She couldn’t find her shoes, so she could only wear the high heels given to her by other models.
However, a large hand suddenly appeared in front of her.
She followed the hand and saw Ken Swanson’s familiar handsome face. She pursed her lips and smiled.
Ken Swanson looked at Melody Fox’s face seriously and supported her steadily. After bringing her down, he squatted down with Melody Fox on his back.
Melody Fox looked puzzled.
Ken Swanson patted his back and said, “Come up. Your heel is too high. You still have to go to the hospital if you sprain it.”
Melody Fox smiled and did not refuse. She took off her high heels and climbed onto Ken Swanson’s back.
His back was broad and strong, making people feel a great sense of security.
Ken Swanson carried him all the way out.
Neither of them spoke. In the end, it was Melody Fox who spoke first.
“Don’t you have anything to ask?”
“There are too many questions I want to ask. Let’s go back. I’ll ask them one by one.”
Melody Fox’s back was a little stiff. Before he could say anything, Ken Swanson had already put him into the car.
He pulled open the driver’s door and took the driver’s seat. The car sped all the way, but it was not in the direction of Manor the Swanson family.
Looking at the scenery outside, the car gradually moving away from the downtown area, Melody Fox finally couldn’t help but ask, “Where are you taking me?”
“A place you must want to go now.”
About 45 minutes later, the car drove into a cemetery.
Melody Fox tons Fox knew where he was taking her.
Before long, the two of them entered the cemetery and arrived at Jiang Wilona’s grave.
Melody Fox’s eyes turned hot.
But this time, it was not because of Jiang Wilona, but because of Jiang Ken Swanson.
She did want to come here and let her mother see her.
He wanted to see his new spaghetti appearance.
“Thank you, Ken Swanson…”
Ken Swanson leaned over and kissed her forehead. He took a step back and said, “I’m going over there to smoke a cigarette. Have a good chat with our mother.”
“Yeah.”
After Ken Swanson left, Melody Fox looked at his mother’s photo on the tombstone and his eyes burned again.
“Mom… I’m Melody. Can you recognize me?”
“I was afraid you wouldn’t recognize me, so I came to see you.”
“Ken Swanson brought me here…”
Her eyes were red as she told her mother everything she had experienced in the past Fox years.
In the end, she said, “Mom, what I want to tell you the most is that this time… I finally made the right decision. Ken Swanson… is very good to me. He can tolerate everything about me. You can rest assured in heaven.”
