Chapter 1269
Ken Swanson already felt that Melody Fox was skinny. There was not much meat at his waist.
When he put on the dress at the show today, he felt that Melody Fox had to eat more.
“I know,” Melody Fox said helplessly, “But it’s useless to eat too much. I won’t gain any weight no matter how much I eat.”
Ken Swanson smiled. “If Moon, who has been shouting all day, heard what you said, she would probably die of anger. She is most envious of someone like you who won’t gain weight no matter how much you eat.”
Melody Fox took a bite of the chicken wing and said, “There’ s nothing to be envious of. You won’t gain weight if you eat too much. It’s mostly because your digestive ability isn’t good. My digestive ability isn’t good. It’s easy for me to have diarrhea if I eat a little unclean food. It’s not good for my health.”
Ken Swanson frowned and said, “Can’t you prescribe some medicine for yourself to regulate your stomach?”
Melody Fox shook his head. “I can’t treat it. It’s caused by the poison in my body. It’s irreversible. However, it’s not a big problem. Just be careful for three meals in the future.”
“I’ll watch you eat Fox for three meals.”
As Ken Swanson spoke, he paused for a moment and asked, “Your poison… What’s going on? Who poisoned you?” “It’s Master.”
Ken Swanson was stunned and very surprised.
Melody Fox explained, “Master is doing this for me. To be not narcissistic, When I was little, a few years old I was very cute. I probably inherited my mother’s appearance… My appearance could bring me some trouble.”
The conditions in her village were generally poor. The children in the village were all covered in dirt. Only she, even if she was spaghetti years old, could not hide her beautiful appearance.
“It’s because of this that I’m always bullied by those children.”
Ken Swanson said in confusion, “But even so, there’s no need for your master to poison you just to make you ugly.” Melody Fox smiled bitterly and said, “This is only one of the reasons. The main reason is that Yolanda Fox often sends people to check on my condition. Master is worried that in the long run, Yolanda Fox will attack me, so he poisoned me. However, the side effect of this poison is not big. The only side effect is that it will make the stomach function not as strong as normal people.”
“It’s all thanks to Master’s move. Later on, the people sent by Yolanda Fox saw that I was getting uglier and uglier, so they didn’t send anyone else. I passed my childhood period Fox safely.”
“Moreover, Master said that beauty is a double-edged
sword. At the age of Fox, when I’m not capable enough, my beauty will only bring me disadvantages. The consequences of not being able to protect my beauty are unpredictable.”
Only then did Ken Swanson understand Quentin Parker’s approach.
“Your master did put in a lot of effort.”
“Yeah.”
“Moreover, Master gave me the formula for the antidote. When I have the ability to gather the rare herbs, it will be the time that I can protect my beauty.”
Melody Fox looked at Ken Swanson and said, “I don’t see any reaction from you… Don’t you feel anything when I look like this?”
Ken Swanson held her hand.
“To me, it doesn’t matter what you look like, as long as it’s you. Moreover, just like Moon said, I’m more worried than before that you’ll run away with someone else.”
Melody Fox laughed.
“Young Master the Swanson Group, how can you not be confident?”
“I’ve never been confident about you.”
Melody Fox’s eyes flashed slightly, and her heart subconsciously beat faster.
Embarrassed, she pulled her hand away.
Ken Swanson asked, “So this is the secret you want to tell me when we are at Insterimond?”
“Yes and no. In addition to that, I have another… bigger secret.”
Ken Swanson looked like he was all ears…
Melody Fox became nervous.
“You have to promise me first. When I’m done, you’re not to think I’m crazy and think I’m crazy.”
“Do you think I will?”
Melody Fox lowered his head uncertainly.
“I don’t know…”
Ken Swanson was silent for a moment. He put down his fork and said, “Looks like I have to listen carefully to your secret.”
Melody Fox also put down her fork. She looked at the 1982 Lafite on the table and asked, “Can I have a drink?”
Ken Swanson gave her a look that said, “Try drinking it.”
In the past, it was because Melody Fox would become a different person after drinking, so he would not let her drink outside spaghetti.
Now, there was another reason: It was better not to touch alcohol for people with weak stomachs.
Melody Fox could only give up.
After hesitating for a while, Melody Fox was still a little nervous.
Ken Swanson simply said, “Then let’s wait until we’re done eating. We don’t want to affect your appetite. Come, let’s eat first.”
Melody Fox nodded. After eating that chicken wing for almost half an hour, she felt a little tasteless.
Seeing her like this, Ken Swanson simply changed the topic and said, “Do you know why I suddenly came to the show earlier today?”
Melody Fox’s attention was indeed attracted.
“Why?”
Ken Swanson turned on his phone, opened a text message, and handed it to Melody Fox.
“The top spaghetti is a list photo sent from an unknown number. A few people’s names are circled in red.”
Melody Fox took it and glanced at it. The names on the lists were all unfamiliar, but one of them was Mabel Fox.
Mabel Fox?
But her name was not circled.
“What… list is this? Have you checked the identity of the person who sent you this list?”
Ken Swanson shook his head. “I checked, but I couldn’t find it. It didn’t use a real registration number, and it was just registered today. However, I can’t contact this number at all now. As for this list, I’ve also checked it and found that they have the same identity.”
“Yes?”
“They’re all candidates for your godfather’s lab test.”
Melody Fox suddenly raised her eyelids. In an instant, a guess flashed through her mind.
“Could it be that… Mabel Fox wants to make a move on these people so that he won’t be obstructed from passing the assessment?”
Ken Swanson nodded and said, “I’m thinking the same thing as you. However, with Mabel Fox’s ability, she can’t do this. So…”
“So the list was probably Ulric Swanson.”
“Yes, I think so too.”
Melody Fox frowned and said, “I have to tell Godfather
“It’s up to you. But I think it’s not very useful to tell your godfather. He’s a professor. He doesn’t even have the ability to protect himself, so how can he protect others? If you ask your godfather to disqualify Mabel Fox based on this list without any evidence, I’m afraid it will have a bad impact on his reputation. Mabel Fox definitely won’t be willing to be disqualified just like that.”
“So what do you think?”
“In my opinion, why don’t we secretly send people to protect these people on the list? If we can take the opportunity to catch those who attacked them, we might be able to follow the clues and catch Ulric Swanson.”
