Chapter 363

Just as Mabel prayed with her eyes closed, her phone suddenly rang.

She opened her eyes and saw Forum Whiz had replied to her message.

Mabel’s eyes lit up. She hurriedly checked the reply.

The reply was simple. There was only one word “Yes.”

However, the very word gave Mabel great hope.

‘Melody’s locked in her room and has all her communication tools confiscated. She can’t reply to me,’ Mabel thought. ‘The whiz on the forum is indeed not Melody!’

Mabel was overjoyed and quickly texted, “Sir, have you completed the problem you promised me? I only have two days left.”

She got the reply in no time. “Soon. I’ll give you the answer in half an hour.”

Mabel thought of the answer sheet in her hand and took a photo of it. She sent it to her secret helper.

“Sir, I might have to ask you to use this solution to solve the problem. My teacher’s request has changed again. Can you follow this solution?”

However, Mabel’s message this time seemed lost. Her helper did not answer.

Mabel could not help but ask anxiously, “Is this solution complicated? If you can solve the problem according to it, I’ll give you another 200 thousand dollars.”

To the current Mabel, she did not have much money on her. This 200 thousand dollars was the last bit of spare money she had.

At the same time, on the other end of the forum.

Melody had already snuck out of the Fox family and got into her car when no one was paying attention.

Thankfully, she had figured out Russell’s plans. Melody had already bought a few phones and placed them in several hidden places in her room. That was why she could successfully bring one out today.

As for the servants, they were so focused on staring at the door that they did not notice her escaping from the bathroom window.

Melody saw the picture sent by the bounty hunter on the forum, and her eyes widened as she gaped at the phone screen.

‘The photo… Isn’t this the steps I’d written on the paper?’ Melody thought.

She immediately realized the bounty hunter was none other than Mabel.

It turned out that she was working for Mabel, and Melody could not describe her complicated feelings.

She should have thought of it when Ander first came to her house. Whether it was Mabel or the bounty hunter on the forum, they all had the same deadline for solving the problem.

But at that time, Mabel thought it might be a coincidence and did not think any further.

Now, it seemed she was not careful enough.

Probably because Mabel did not reply, Mabel sent another message.

“Sir, are you still there?”

A mocking smile touched Melody’s lips as she sat in the sports car.

Melody wondered what kind of expression Mabel would have when she realized who her secret helper was.

After thinking, Melody raised her eyebrows and replied, “Yes. I was looking at your photo. I should be able to solve it. You’ll get the answer today, but the money you mentioned…”

“I’ll add it to the bounty now!” Mabel promised.

Not long after, the system notified Melody that the bounty had increased by 200 thousand dollars.

Melody smiled and texted, “Alright, you’ll have it before tonight.”

After replying, Melody raised her eyebrows thoughtfully and closed the forum.

‘Don’t you want the answer, Mabel? No problem. I’ll give it to you. But it’s up to me to decide how to write it,’ Melody laughed inwardly.

Melody stepped on the accelerator and drove to Serenity Villa.

About half an hour later, Melody arrived at the entrance of Ken’s place.

Melody pressed the doorbell, and Susan immediately answered the door.

Susan’s face was filled with joy at the sight of Melody

Miss Fox, welcome! It just so happens that Mr. Swanson has just returned.

Susan’s words fell when Ken came down from the second four: His footsteps were as hasty as if he knew Melody would be there. There was no surprise in his eyes

Melody understood James was following her again because and always felt a car was following her along the way. Now everything made sense.

What is it?

Ken looked a Melody and asked her why she was there bluntly.

Maintaining her smile. Melody said. I’m here to take Hattie’s way. Thank you for letting her stay these days.

The her away Ken repeated.

He frowned and asked, “Why are you taking her away? Isn’t it safe here?

It’s safe. It’s just that I don’t want to trouble you anymore And Hamre might be more used to living alone:

Ken fell to silence. Later, he asked, “Melody, did I do something that upset you?”

Melody did not expect that question. She shook her head “No, I just want her to stay somewhere else. A friend of mine will come to Silverlake soon and needs someone to help with household duties. So-“

Before she could finish, Ken interrupted. “A friend? Which friend?”

Melody’s expression froze slightly, but soon, she answered calmly, “A friend that’s older and needs to be taken care of.”

Ken’s eyes darkened.

He ignored Susan, who was giving him looks like crazy. He nodded and said, “Alright, I understand. Susan, tell Hattie to pack up and leave with Melody”

Susan was so surprised. She wanted to refuse, but as a maid, she could not interfere with the master’s order. She could only brace herself and nod. “Yes, sir.”

Not long after, Hattie walked out excitedly. She was a stark contrast to Susan, who wore a complicated expression.

Hattie came empty-handed and had no luggage. Hattie had borrowed Susan’s clothes for the past few days, so she walked out without bringing anything.

Hattie could not hide her joy and said, “Miss Melody, let’s go!”

Melody nodded and turned to Ken. “We gotta go, I’ll be there on time for the cocktail party tonight.”

“Wait.” Ken stopped her and asked, “Where will she live? I can send someone to protect her in the dark.”

Melody subconsciously wanted to refuse because no one could know about the news of Quentin coming to Silverlake.

However, it dawned on her that Hattie’s safety was also important. At most, she would find a reason to send Ken away when Quentin arrived.

With that in mind, Melody nodded and thanked Ken. “Okay, I’ll send the address to your phone later. Thank you.”

Ken’s expression did not change as he said, “I told don’t you, you have to thank me. Also…”

He took a bank card from his wallet and stuffed it into Hattie’s hand.

Hattie looked puzzled. “What’s this, sir?”

“Your remuneration for helping Susan these few days. The PIN is six zeros. You’re welcome. Just accept it.”

Hattie refused, but Ken refused to take it back. He only said, “You deserve it.”

“Well…” Hattie hesitated.

Melody noticed Hattie’s hesitation and said, “Hattie, take it.”

Only then did Hattie accept the card.

Melody said goodbye to Ken and drove Hattie to Ford’s previous residence.

Hattie was satisfied with the house. She looked around and finally chose the room Zack had stayed in before as her bedroom.

There were many rooms in the house. Melody also found a room with a desk and sat by it to write down the remaining steps of the problem.

Meanwhile…
