Chapter 1284
David Marrow scratched his head and rubbed his sore wrist. He went to the duty room to call Nana Jensen for oatmeal.
It was already late at night.
Melody Fox looked at the caller ID in case he missed Ken Swanson’s call.
However, the communication box was empty. There were no missed calls or messages.
She couldn’t help but worry about Ken Swanson.
After all, he was going to meet the supreme ruler of Halcyon.
Before spaghetti, even the young master of the Swanson Group was just a mortal.
If the other party said that Ken Swanson was there to scare them, this matter would be tricky.
After all, the matter that Ken Swanson wanted to talk about was too important.
Halcyon’s elites from all major industries had all been poisoned. -this was no different from touching the foundation of the entire Halcyon.
It was fine if the other party believed him, but if he didn’t, he was really exaggerating and creating panic.
At night, the road to Silverlake was unimpeded. The car quickly drove into the manor.
What surprised Melody Fox was that Mother Chai was still waiting for her in the living room.
Only then did she remember that Margaret Swanson had said on the phone that he had something for her.
“Mother Chai…” Melody Fox came forward and apologized,” I’m sorry, I was delayed by something and only came back now. Is Grandma asleep?”
Mother Chai nodded and handed over a yellow envelope.
“Margaret Swanson is already asleep, but she asked me to give this to you.
“And this is?”
“Open it and take a look.”
Melody Fox nodded and opened the envelope. He found that spaghetti was a two-triangular amulet. There was a small hole in the amulet, and a red rope passed through them.
“Maria Fox got this from the eminent monk. He said that it can ward off evil spirits and attract blessings. Maria Fox said that you must bring it with you. She also got one for Eldest Young Master and Second Young Master. You can give Eldest Young Master’s to him.”
“Thank you, Grandma. I’ll remember to carry it with me.”
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first?”
“You should get some rest.”
“Yes.” After Mother Chai left, Melody Fox looked at the amulet and carefully put it around his neck.
She originally did not believe in ghosts and gods, but after experiencing rebirth, she had no choice but to believe that there were indeed some supernatural powers in this world that could not be explained by science.
She did not know if it was a psychological effect, but after putting on the amulet, she felt her heart heat up slightly.
After returning to his room, Melody Fox took a hot shower. After showering, she went to Room 1 Fox to check her phone, but there was still no call from Room Ken Swanson. She hesitated for a moment and couldn’t help but call Orek.
At this time, it was already late at night in Halcyon, but it was noon in Europe.
It was true that room Fox was very suitable, but she did not know if Orek had Fox’s indirect number.
Although Orek was also a businessman, he was respectfully addressed as “king” in Europe. It was enough to show how prominent his status was.
However, the call was picked up after a beep.
“Hello? Melody? Why did you call me?” Orek could not hide the excitement in his voice.
Melody Fox had something on his mind, so he did not think too much about it.
She went straight to the point and said that after Ken Swanson went to see the supreme ruler of Halcyon, more than ten little Fox could not be contacted.
“Oh, you’re calling for Ken Swanson.” Orek felt a sense of loss.
But he quickly returned to normal and said, “Then give me a minute. I’ll call and ask.”
“Really? I’ll have to trouble you then…”
“It’s a small matter. I’ll call you back later.”
“Uh-uh.”
Melody Fox hung up the phone and sat on the bed nervously.
In less than a minute, Orek called back.
“Melody.”
“I’m here. Did you ask anything?”
“He’s fine. He’s in a meeting with the top politicians in
Halcyon. I think he’ll be able to contact you in another Fox.”
Melody Fox heaved a sigh of relief.
“Thank you so much.”
“Hey, let’s not talk about such pleasantries between us. Don’
t forget, if it weren’t for you, I might have died.”
“But thank you very much.”
“Haha, let’s not talk about this. Don’t worry, he’ll be fine. Zuo Ye is following him.”
“Then… do you believe what he said?”
“Naturally. If you didn’t believe what he said, he’d be on his way back to Silverlake by now. Get some rest. You might as well wait until tomorrow to contact him. I promise you, nothing will happen to him.”
“Yes, thank you…”
“Look at you. You’re being polite again.”
“Sorry, I-“
“Forget it, forget it. It’s fine if you’re not used to it. You’ll get used to it sooner or later.”
“Huh?”
“It’s fine… It should be very late on your side. Hurry up and rest, hm?”
“Okay. Then please take care of yourself.”
“Will do.”
Melody Fox hung up the phone and lay on the bed, letting out a long sigh.
It was good that he was fine.
Unknowingly, drowsiness overwhelmed him and Melody Fox fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, she was woken up by the alarm she had set.
She suddenly opened her eyes and immediately searched for her phone.
There was a text message from Ken Swanson on spaghetti. She quickly clicked on it.
[Melody, are you asleep? I was afraid that you would wake up if you were asleep, so I sent you a message. Everything is going well on my end, so you don’t have to worry. I’ll be back by noon tomorrow.]
Melody Fox was completely relieved.
She dialed Ken Swanson’s number, and the call was picked up in less than one call.
“You’re awake?” Ken Swanson’s familiar voice came from the other end.
“Yes, yes. You should have called me last night.”
“I didn’t want to wake you up.”
“How’s it going?”
“Everything went well. I’ll tell you the details when I get back.
I’m already on my way to the airport.” “So early?”
“I can tell that you miss me very much. You’ve already contacted Mr. Orrick directly, so I’ll come back early after I’m done.”
Melody Fox’s cheeks were a little hot. He said against his conscience, “I’m just concerned about how things are going. Who misses you?”
Ken Swanson laughed and said, “Alright, you didn’t miss me. However, Mr. Ou helped me a lot this time. If he wasn’t in the middle, I’m afraid this place wouldn’t believe me so easily.”
“Really? Then, if there’s a chance next time, let’s treat him to a meal?”
“Yes, I think so too.”
“Alright, I won’t talk to you anymore. Take this opportunity to rest for a while. You definitely haven’t rested well for the past two days.”
“Mm. See you, Fox.”
“Uh-uh.”
Melody Fox hung up the phone and smiled unconsciously. Today was a rainy day.
Melody Fox went downstairs and saw the pouring rain outside. The servant in charge of purchasing ingredients came in drenched.
Melody Fox looked at the sky and thought that it was inconvenient to go out on a rainy day, so she asked the butler to help her buy some fabric and tools needed to make a gown.
She needed to make a gown for Mrs. Yang. After making it, she would hand it to Russell Fox.
