Chapter 266

Following closely behind Sara was Margaret, who had gone out for breakfast.

Why is Margaret with Sara? Melody asked.

Ken sighed silently. My grandma is kind and has many friends. Sara is one of her friends. My grandma is soft-hearted and easily bewitched by the people with ulterior motives.

Melody could not help but ask, You said that your mother’s death had something to do with Sara. What’s that about?

My mother died in an accident, but I don’t believe it was an accident. Sara was the one who did my mother’s autopsy back then, but all the information there was burned down before the autopsy report had been released. That timing was so coincidental that I had to guess.

So, what have you got now? Asked Melody.

It’s impossible to find the autopsy report again, but I tracked down an account Sara had set up overseas. On the day my mother died, her account gained 200 million dollars out of thin air. And the sender was Wendell.

Melody’s eyelids twitched. She suddenly felt Ken’s mother’s death might be the same as her mother’s situation.

They were killed by the despicable third parties.

Just then, Margaret and Sara downstairs seemed to sense their gaze and looked up.

Melody and Ken did not have time to dodge. Margaret and Sara had seen them.

Margaret frowned and shouted upstairs, Ken come down!

Her voice filled with authority.

Ken responded tepidly and said: I don’t think I have time to drive you to the office. I’ll get James to drive you.

Melody knew he had to deal with Margaret first, so she did not ask further. She agreed and followed Ken downstairs.

Margaret’s face darkened when she saw Ken. However, her expression softened when her gaze landed on Melody, who was following behind.

Melody… said, Margaret.

Melody greeted with a smile. Margaret, you look like you’re all healed up.

Margaret was happy. She also felt she was much better, but it became even more credible when these words came out of Melody’s mouth.

She turned to Sara and introduced Melody, this is Melody Fox, the person who saved my life. I told you about her on the way over here. Melody Fox? Sara gritted her teeth when she heard the name. Isn’t that name the same Melody Fox who beat up Barclay and put him in the hospital? I did not expect her to be Margaret’s savior, Sara thought.

Sara took a deep breath and tried her best to maintain the smile on her face. Miss Fox, you have such good medical skills at a young age. I’m impressed!

Thank you for your compliment, Melody replied politely without batting an eyelid. However, her eyes were secretly sizing up Sara.

Melody thought: Sara looks similar to Fairlee, but there is a hint of shrewdness and sharpness in her eyes. She is a tough nut to crack. I wondered if Ken could find any traces left behind by Sara back then. However, I do not have the time to get involved in this mess. Ken is working hard to investigate the cause of his mother’s death. I have to work even harder. With that in mind, Melody took the initiative to say goodbye. Margaret, I’m relieved to see you’re recovering well. I have something on. I’ll see you another day.

Margaret nodded. Remember to visit me more often. Only you can talk to me more in this family.

Alright, Margaret! Melody nodded with a smile and waved goodbye.

Before she could walk far, she heard Margaret reprimanding Ken, What happened at Sara’s house? I heard you brought people to her house to arrest someone. I would have thought it was a rumor if I hadn’t heard it myself.

Melody could not help but worry for Ken.

Sara said pretentiously, Margaret, don’t make things difficult for Ken. Perhaps he has some unspoken secrets…

Margaret became even angrier as soon as she heard Sara’s words.

We two families have always been close. What unspoken secrets can he have? Ken tell me, what’s going on? How do you plan to resolve it?

Melody walked further away, and slowly she couldn’t hear what they were saying.

On the other side, Ken watched Melody leave before meeting Margaret’s gaze. He said methodically, Grandma, you’ve misunderstood me. I’m not with those police officers who went to arrest someone. I was there to warn Sara.

Compared to Sara, Margaret naturally believes Ken more.

There’s been a misunderstanding, Margaret told Sara.

Impossible! Sara said. Suppressing her anger, Ken don’t bully your grandma by deliberately lying to her without her presence.

Lie to her? Ken’s eyes were deep as he said: Why would I lie to her? Sara, if you have the time to sow discord between my grandma and me, why don’t you educate the rest of the Lawrence family members before you let it go?

You…!

Sara choked and felt a little guilty.

Ken said faintly, Let’s talk about Fairlee first. She covered up Benny’s evil deeds…

Ken listed the crimes committed by the members of the Lawrence family one by one. The more he spoke, the more awful Margaret’s expression became.

Sara wanted to stop Ken, but she could not shut his mouth. She could only forcefully interrupt, Margaret, I just remembered I have to find a lawyer. I’ll go back now.

Then she turned and left in a panic with her eyes full of unwillingness before Margaret could respond.

Don’t they say Ken is a quiet person who doesn’t bother to explain himself no matter how he is slandered? Is Astrid lying to me? Thought Sara.

She gritted her teeth and thought that she had to ask Astrid out to resolve the matter.

After Sara left, Ken was about to speak when he heard Margaret speak first. Ken tell me the truth. Why are you treating the Lawrence family like this?

Grandma, Didn’t I tell you? It’s just a coincidence…

He was interrupted by Margaret before he could finish his sentence.

I watched you grow up. There’s nothing you can hide from me. Tell me, I’m not the kind of person who helps outsiders.

Ken could not help but pursed his lips in silence.

It turns out grandma has guessed everything, thought Ken.

After a moment of silence, Ken said, I don’t think the cause of my mother’s death was that simple back then.

Do you think it has something to do with the Lawrence family? Margaret asked.

Well…

Margaret sighed deeply and said: It’s been so many years. Can’t you let it go and live your life?

I just want an answer, said Ken.

Ken’s gaze was resolute. Margaret knew she could not persuade him, so she could only give up.

Since you’ve decided to find out, find out. I’ll speak up for you before your father.

Ken’s heart ached.

Grandma…

Alright. I didn’t eat well this morning. Come and eat with me.

Okay!

On the other side, Melody walked to the gate and met James, who was waiting for her by his car. Sorry to bother you, Melody said when their eyes met.

James snorted and got into the car. He looked like he could not be bothered to speak to her.

After Melody got into the car, James said coldly, Don’t forget my bet with you. If Regina doesn’t come looking for you, you must divorce Ken immediately.
