Chapter 499

However, she had so many things going on lately that she might not have time to take the exam.

Melody was silent for two seconds before asking, “What’s the exact time?”

“The exact time hasn’t been announced yet. It’ll probably be announced next month at the earliest. These people wanted me to sign up, so I knew about this news in advance. But I’m already so old, and my energy is limited. Moreover, they still need the written test. I heard that the questions for the written test don’t seem easy, so I wanted to ask if you want to try,” said Yannick.

Melody hesitated and said, “Okay, please let me know after you announce the time. I’ll find time to attend.”

“Alright!” Yannick rubbed his hands and said, “With your painting skills, applying for painting is the most stable. However, you can also apply for other things together. You can choose whichever major you’re best at. Anyway, our goal is clear. We want to obtain the graduation certificate from the University of Insterimond.”

Melody asked in surprise, “Can we enroll in many subjects simultaneously?”

“Of course! If you have enough time, you can apply for all of them. The people from the University of Insterimond told me that some geniuses have many skills. This condition allows these geniuses with many skills to perform fully, so the examination time for every subject is staggered.” “Alright.” Melody nodded.

She had countless skills. If she had enough time, it would indeed not be a problem for her to register for eight or ten.

Melody was about to ask for more details when a commotion sounded at the hall’s entrance.

The two of them subconsciously looked at the door.

When Melody saw the handsome man in the wheelchair, her expression was blank for a few seconds. ‘Am I hallucinating? Why do I seem to see Ken?’

As soon as she had this thought, Ken’s gaze had already accurately locked onto her position in the crowd. He looked up at her.

The moment their eyes met, Melody’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

She was very sure that she was not hallucinating. Ken was here.

‘But why is he here?’ Before Melody could figure out why, Ken said something to the bodyguard behind him. The bodyguard pushed the wheelchair with a clear purpose and looked straight at her.

Coincidentally, the two socialites who had mocked and questioned Melody just now were also standing not far away.

When they saw Ken coming over, they were immediately surprised and delighted.

“It’s your idol. He seems to be walking toward you.” One of the girls nudged the other on the shoulder.

The girl blushed and said embarrassedly, “Don’t talk nonsense. I only met him a few times at some cocktail parties and didn’t even say a word to him. He can’t remember me…”

Love could easily make people lose their rationality. Although the girl said that, she hoped Ken was here for her. The other girl looked at her best friend’s blushing face and couldn’t help but laugh. “Even if he’s not here for you, you’re the most beautiful person in the hall. He’ll notice you. You didn’t speak to him before, so you must seize the opportunity this time.”

The two girls’ whispers reached Melody’s ears.

She didn’t want to listen, but her hearing was naturally better than ordinary people’s.

The uncomfortable feeling in her stomach like she had been hungry for a long time came again.

However, she quickly convinced herself. ‘If Ken can find someone who is suitable for him earlier, won’t I be able to take this opportunity to distance myself from him and not implicate him again?

Just as she was thinking about this, Ken, sitting in a wheelchair, was less than six feet away.

However, from six feet away, Ken said, “Honey, why did it take you so long to attend a birthday party?”

As soon as he said this, the surroundings instantly fell silent.

The two girls widened their eyes in disbelief. Especially the girl who regarded Ken as her idol. Her expression instantly turned from blushed to dark.

She had thought Ken was not there for her, but she couldn’t believe Ken had called Melody “Honey” in public. This was undoubtedly a slap to her face.

For a moment, the girl could not even stand steadily.

And the person involved, Melody, was no less surprised than the girl. She was stunned for a few seconds before she realized that Ken was acting.

After all, they had acted before Ramon, showing him they were in love. ‘What happens today will reach Ramon’s ears. In that case, Ken is almost acting for Ramon.’ With this thought in mind, Melody quickly came back to her senses and asked with a stiff expression, “What are you doing here?” Ken glanced at her and asked, “What do you think? Didn’t you say that you would be back soon?”

Melody was a little unsure of what Ken meant by saying this. She could only go along with his words. “I was just about to say goodbye to Mr. Chapman and the rest.” Ken nodded.

As they talked, Nickolas had already walked over. “Long time no see, Ken. I sent you an invitation but you didn’t come. I thought you weren’t coming.”

Ken was also stunned when he saw Nickolas’s eyes, but his expression quickly returned to normal. He nodded and said, “It’s your birthday. I should have come earlier, but my leg is slightly injured. It’s inconvenient, so I specially asked my wife to come.”

Nickolas looked at Ken and Melody with a smile. No matter how he looked at them, they did not match. However, if he ignored Melody’s face, Melody and Ken were alike in temperament.

He said, “I didn’t expect you two to get married. Why didn’t you inform me so I could give you a wedding gift.”

Ken smiled and said, “That’s easy. We’re preparing for the wedding. You must come to support us.”

“That’s for sure! Even if it’s not for you, it’s impossible for me not to attend Ms. Palmer’s wedding.”

Hearing the words “Ms. Palmer”, Ken raised his eyebrows and a hint of pride appeared in his eyes.

They exchanged pleasantries for a while, and almost every word was about Melody.

Coincidentally, Warner came over. Ken’s gaze landed on his face, and a moment of admiration appeared in Ken’s eyes. He asked, “Mr. Warner, when did you come back?”

“Last month,” Warner replied, but his gaze kept moving between Ken and Melody. When he saw Ken call Melody’ Honey”, he had an indescribable strange feeling in his heart for some reason.

The topic quickly shifted to Melody.

Nickolas asked, “When is your wedding?”

“Soon,” Ken answered naturally. Melody felt that something was wrong with her body. She said to interrupt the two of them, “Mr. Chapman, it’s getting late. We’ll go back first.” “You’re going back just like that?” Nickolas said regretfully, Originally, I wanted to keep you in the study room to look at your painting after the birthday party. But now, I guess I shouldn’t disturb the two of you.

Melody smiled stiffly. Just as she was about to speak, Ken suddenly held her hand and said, “Since Mr. Chapman has let you go, let’s go back.”

Ken’s hands were cold, but Melody felt her palms burning.

She nodded and did not stay any longer. She pushed Ken’s wheelchair out.
