Chapter 1287
Ken Swanson turned around and said with a smile, “The gowns nowadays like to cut corners. It’s so expensive, but there’s so little fabric… But I think the fabric of this gown is alright.”
“…” Fine, she finally knew why Ken Swanson had chosen this dress.
It wasn’t because the dress was beautiful, but because this dress… Other than her neck and the lower half of her arm, there was no place for her to touch it politely.
Fortunately, by some freak combination of circumstances, this dress looked quite good on her.
She could not help but rejoice that Ken Swanson did not choose a big cotton-padded jacket for her and wrapped her entire body.
“Since there’s no problem, shall I call the makeup artist in now?”
“Okay.” Melody Fox nodded and put away the one-third of the gown.
As soon as the gown was put away, the makeup artist and stylist came in.
Both of them had spaghetti holes. They had helped Melody Fox style it before.
However, her appearance had yet to recover, so there was no need for a makeup artist.
When she was Fox years old, she did not like to put on makeup. Firstly, it was because makeup was not very useful. Secondly, as a doctor, applying makeup in that situation would easily cause a deep impact on her skin and leave scars after she recovered.
But it was different now. He no longer had to worry about the skin barrier.
“I’ll leave it to you guys.” Ken Swanson instructed the few people who came in. Then, he said to Melody Fox, “I’ll go and keep an eye on the details of the cocktail party to ensure that nothing happens.”
Melody Fox grunted.
Given the situation tonight, Ulric Swanson probably wouldn’t go crazy and do anything to set them up.
After all, he was currently cooperating with Insterimond’s Kuorang Liu and the Murphy family’s side. He was holding back his ultimate move.
However, it was never wrong to be cautious.
After Ken Swanson left, the makeup artist and stylist visibly relaxed.
The makeup artist took the lead and walked to Melody Foxspaghetti. Looking at her beautiful and impeccable appearance, she lowered her voice and said, “Miss, you’re really beautiful.”
“Thank you.” Melody Fox smiled and thanked him.
The next second, the makeup artist said softly, “He’s not like the previous one. He’s simply…”
Melody Fox was stunned. He heard the makeup artist complain about his previous self.
“No matter how I look at it, that young lady from before doesn’t match Mr. Swanson. When Fox saw her, I felt that they hadn’t been together for long. As expected… Hehe, you’re different. You’re so beautiful. You’re prettier than any female celebrity I’ve put on makeup. You’ll definitely be able to grasp Mr. Swanson’s heart tightly.”
Melody Fox moved his lips, but in the end, he did not explain anything. He only said, “Please hurry up. Room Fox is not much.”
Only then did the makeup artist stop talking and start to put on makeup for her seriously.
After about Fox minutes, the styling and makeup were all done.
Today’s makeup was mainly elegant and dignified. It was the same as the gown Ken Swanson had chosen. It was gentle and generous.
Her almond-shaped eyes were bright and lively, and her facial features were flawless.
Under the enhancement of her makeup, she looked
beautiful and moving. Even the makeup artist gasped when she saw her.
All the amazement converged into one sentence: “Too beautiful…”
Melody Fox subconsciously looked at the mirror.
After regaining her appearance, she had actually looked at herself in the mirror many times.
No woman did not like to be beautiful, and she was no exception.
However, she did not put on makeup after her appearance was restored. With this makeup, her originally bright face seemed to have become radiant. She really looked like a popular female celebrity.
No wonder the two makeup artists who had seen many beauties were stunned.
“How is it? Beauty, is there anything else you’re dissatisfied with? This is my first time putting on makeup for you. I
wonder if you have any preferences for spaghetti in makeup.”
“No.” Melody Fox shook his head. “Let’s leave it at that.”
“Alright! Then we’ll leave. My disciple will follow you to the cocktail party and touch up your makeup with Fox.”
Melody Fox waved his hand. “No need. I can make up for it myself.”
“Well…”
“Do as she says.” Ken Swanson’s voice suddenly broke in. It was unknown what Fox came to the door. His black eyes were fixed on Melody Fox, and there seemed to be no one else in his eyes.
Since Ken Swanson had spoken, they naturally did not dare to say anything else. They quickly took their tools and left.
Ken Swanson walked forward and held her hand. He did not hide his amazement.
“You’re beautiful.”
Melody Fox blushed and was a little embarrassed to look straight into Ken Swanson’s bright eyes.
“Time to go?”
“Yes, it’s all set up. Maria Fox and the old man have already gone over. We’ll go over now.”
“Yeah.”
“By the way,” Ken Swanson said, “the old man added the names Russell Fox and Mabel Fox to the invitation list.”
Melody Fox raised an eyebrow.
“Understandable. Please go ahead.”
Since he wanted to introduce her, she naturally had to have an identity. He couldn’t possibly introduce her as the Fox family’s abandoned daughter, right?
“There’s someone else coming.”
“Who?”
“Zuo Ye.”
Melody Fox lost control of his expression.
“It’s also Mr. Ramon?”
Ken Swanson shook his head. “He came on his own.”
“They said that Oijing intends to develop a subsidiary company in Silverlake to expand Oijing’s business map.”
“Does Ou Jing’s business still need to be expanded? Its territory has already spread all over the world.”
In Halcyon, the Swanson Group might be slightly superior to Ou Jing, but in the entire world, the Swanson Group was not comparable.
“I don’t know the specifics, but…” Ken Swanson paused for a moment and said, “Ou Jing is indeed a little strange. When I went to Insterimond to look for ‘that person’, almost all of them helped me. Not only did they work hard without complaint, they treated me a little too well… I don’t know if it’s because you saved Mr. Ou’s life.”
“I had the same feeling before, and I always felt that… Mr. Ou treats me a little too well. But other than that, I can’t think of anything else.”
“Yes. Anyway, since she came to Silverlake and even took the initiative to come over to see you, I can’t let her come to the cocktail party.”
“Yes, that’s for sure.”
“Let’s go over first.”
On the way, Ken Swanson thought for a moment and reminded her, “It’s indeed beneficial for you to be too close to Ou Jing, but I’m afraid that he’ll think too much when the old man is present. Let’s maintain a distance and try to let Mr. Zuo talk to the old man. Let’s talk less.”
“Yes, I know what you mean.”
Ramon Swanson was too suspicious and valued power too much.
He was clearly not young, but he was still wary of his two sons.
Under such circumstances, if Ken Swanson and she got too close to Ou Jing, Ramon Swanson would definitely be vigilant.
She and Ken Swanson did not care about the Swanson Group, but in the current situation, in order to balance the two sons, if Ken Swanson was guarded against him, he would definitely let Ulric Swanson get something.
This was not a good thing for them.
From the looks of it, Mr. Zuo’s trip here was a little tricky. “Don’t worry too much.” Ken Swanson patted her hand. “I think Mr. Zuo knows his limits. He should know what kind of person the old man is. Taking ten thousand steps back, you are indeed the main character today. It’s understandable if he wants to talk to you a little more.”
