Chapter 482

One was tall and the other was short. One was Ulric, and the other was Mabel.

Ulric stood on mechanical support legs, no different from a normal person.

The relationship between the two seemed to be developing smoothly. Mabel was holding Ulric’s arm intimately.

No one knew what Ulric said, but Mabel’s face turned red quickly.

At this moment, Melody did not know how to describe her feelings. The man who had sworn an oath to her but killed her in the blink of an eye in her previous life was now sincerely making the person who had killed her laugh.

However, Melody was very sure that she was not sad at all. She knew she had truly let go of her feelings for Ulric, leaving only hatred.

At this moment, Warner also saw Ulric.

He asked in surprise, “Mr. Swanson?”

Ulric turned around and looked over. In the next second, his gaze landed on Melody, standing behind Warner.

Melody accurately captured the flash of surprise in Ulric’s eyes. She instantly realized that Ulric did not know that she would come.

‘It seems his target today is not me, Melody thought.

At the same time, Mabel also saw her.

Unlike Ulric, she immediately frowned and asked with disgust, “What are you doing here? Did you follow me here?” Mabel only had Ulric in her heart. She subconsciously felt that Melody knew she had confirmed her relationship with Ulric, so Melody came over to snatch her love.

Little did he know that Melody wanted them to stick together forever.

Melody glanced at Mabel indifferently and did not answer her. She only turned to Warner and said, “I’ll wait for you downstairs.” Then, she walked away.

Her sixth sense told her that Ulric had been staring at her. The feeling of being stared at only completely disappeared after she reached the corner of the stairs.

After Melody left, Mabel was even more furious. ‘How dare she ignore me! I must have guessed her thoughts, so she fled in a panic.’

However, since Ulric was present, Mabel did not want Ulric to discover her inappropriate side. She could only suppress her anger and pretend to be aggrieved. “Ulric, my sister must have thought I snatched you away, so she thought of a way to sneak in.”

Ulric retracted his gaze from the direction where Melody had gone. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Warner say, “You’re overthinking. Miss Fox is a distinguished guest that I invited over.”

“You?” Mabel was a little surprised. She had seen Warner before and knew that his family background was extraordinary. If not for Ulric’s appearance, she might have wanted to develop a relationship with Warner.

‘But why would such a person invite Melody to his grandfather’s birthday party?’ Mabel wondered.

One had to know that Warner’s grandfather’s identity was not ordinary. If it weren’t for Ulric, even Mabel, Best Celebrity, wouldn’t have been invited here.

For a moment, Mabel was both surprised and jealous.

However, her volatile emotions calmed down slightly when she thought about how she had already obtained Ulric. She thought, ‘Perhaps Melody had used her medical skills to gain Warner’s trust.’

“It seems to be a misunderstanding.” Ulric tried to smooth things over. He smiled at Mabel and said, “Mabel, wait for me downstairs. I have a few words to say to Mr. Chapman.”

Mabel wanted to ask why they needed to avoid her, but in the end, she held it in. She pretended to smile decently and said, “Okay.”

Soon, Mabel also left.

Warner was the first to speak. “I wonder what you want to talk to me about, Mr. Swanson?”

Ulric had a gentle smile on his face. He slowly said, “I heard you recently won an international award, Mr. Chapman. It’s about artificial intelligence.”

At the mention of this, Warner said proudly. “That’s right, but it was just a fluke. My design is relatively novel, so I stood out. But why are you asking this?”

The smile on Ulric’s face deepened. He said, “Here is the thing. I plan to open an artificial intelligence company specializing in Al smart homes. I wonder if you’re willing to invest in technology.”

“Investing in technology?” Warner hesitated before saying,” I’ve just returned to the country not long ago, but I know that artificial intelligence is a super trend in Halcyon now. I can consider your suggestion.”

“That’s great. Why don’t we talk about it in detail another day?” Ulric asked excitedly.

“Sure.” Warner nodded.

“But…” Ulric was silent before saying, “Recently, there is a new artificial intelligence company called Ximber Tech in Halcyon. Mr. Chapman, I wonder if you have heard of it.”

At the same time, downstairs.

Mabel started searching for Melody the moment she went downstairs. Finally, she found Melody in a corner.

Melody was eating dessert. It was undeniable that she had been eating a little less during three meals recently, so her stomach often felt uncomfortable. As a doctor, Melody knew this was a warning from her body, so she started eating when she found the time.

However, just as she took two bites of the cake, a hand appeared out of thin air and threw the cake in her hand into the trash can.

Melody’s expression suddenly darkened as she looked coldly at the person who had appeared before her.

It was Mabel. She looked angry like she was there to denounce Melody.

Melody frowned and said, “I advise you to disappear from my sight before I get angry.”

The viciousness in Melody’s eyes immediately reminded Mabel of bad memories. Those assassins from the black market had taught her and her father a lesson, causing her to have nightmares at night.

But soon, Mabel calmed down, thinking, ‘I’m now Ulric’s girlfriend. I’m no longer the person Melody can bully as she pleases.’

“Huh!” Mabel sneered as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world and said, “What right do you have to make me disappear? You’re the one who should disappear. You’re haunting me. I can’t believe you chased me here.”

“What the hell are you talking about?” Melody was speechless. “Let me tell you directly, I don’t have any feelings for Ulric. You can rest assured that I will never snatch him away from you.”

“Bullshit!” Mabel suppressed her voice and scolded, “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You want to rely on your short-lived mother to arrange a marriage for you so that you can live a good life. Ouch!”

There was a searing pain in Mabel’s cheek.

She glared at Melody. “Bitch! How dare you hit me?”

“So what if I hit you?” Melody looked at Mabel coldly and said, “If I hear another word about my mother from you, I will make you disappear immediately.”

Her moonlike eyes contained endless coldness and anger. Seeing this, Mabel’s heart trembled. Her stomach suddenly felt constricted, and she felt so terrified that she felt nauseous. “You…”

“Still not getting lost?” Melody narrowed her eyes

dangerously. “You need to pay attention to your image as Best Celebrity, but I don’t. I don’t think Ulric wants to see you beaten into like a pig’s head.”
