Chapter 551

Melody was not an outgoing person who felt natural when talking to unfamiliar people, especially when facing Moon, who had a completely opposite personality. She stiffly withdrew her hand from Moon’s arms and said truthfully, “I really don’t love a certain type of man, and I probably won’t have one in the future.”

Moon was stunned and asked, “Why? So how are you going to date or have a relationship? Or are you just aimlessly following your heart?”

Melody lowered her eyes. “No. I don’t have any plans to fall in love, and I won’t for a long time.”

“I see.” Moon looked at Ken sympathetically.

Ken ignored her pitiful look and suddenly stood up to pull Moon’s hand.

Melody looked up at the two of them in shock, and then she heard Ken say, “I forgot it. So let me introduce her again. She is Blue Moon Lounge’s boss, and also my aunt.”

Melody’s eyes widened in shock speechlessly. The scene from before surged into her mind again when Ken did not express any disgust at Moon’s hand on his shoulder. When Moon held Ken’s hand and walked out, he did not reject her either.

She thought that Moon was Ken’s ideal type or that there was something between the two of them, but it turned out that she had misunderstood.

Melody’s lips twitched. The surprise in her heart turned into embarrassment. Fortunately, she quickly tried her best to calm down and stood up to greet Moon. “Hello…”

“Huh?” Moon looked at Melody and asked with a puzzled expression, “So you didn’t know it before?”

Melody shook her head and cursed Ken for not telling the truth in advance.

Ken seemed to read her mind and said, “I didn’t have time to say it.”

“Alright, alright. You don’t have to treat me like an elder. Although I’m older, I’ve never had a gap with you young people.” Moon blinked at Melody and said, “I’m very curious. Why don’t you want to date? Have you been hurt by a man before?”

Since he was an elder, Melody had no choice but to answer. She could only vaguely say, “I guess so…”

The love of her previous life had killed her. She had not just been heartbroken. Her heart had also been dug out by that man. However, she naturally would not tell Moon this.

Moon grew even more curious. “Who hurt you? How? Cheating? Violence?”

“Both, I guess…” Melody turned her head away slightly.

Moon’s mouth widened in surprise.

Meanwhile, Ken’s expression darkened. At that time, James had investigated Melody very carefully. In the past over 20 years, Melody had never been in a relationship at all. She had not even approached any men before. But Melody was not a person who would lie.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered something. When Melody was drunk that day, she asked him a question. “Do you believe that there are people in this world who died and got reborn back to a few years before?”

He did not take Melody’s words seriously at that time, but combined with the various deeds that happened to her, everything seemed to point to this question. Ken narrowed his eyes and slowly clenched his fists.

Melody did not notice the change in Ken’s expression. She did not want to continue talking about this topic at all. “It’s about time to eat. Could we stop talking about these things?”

“Alright, alright.” Moon hurriedly nodded.

Coincidentally, the waiter came in to serve the dishes. Moon stood up and said, “I’ll go downstairs. If you need anything, call me anytime.”

“Okay.” Melody nodded and watched Moon leave. However, when she turned her head, her gaze met with Ken’s dark eyes. His eyes were usually filled with pressure but now had a new emotion, heartache.

Melody just treated him as a friend who felt sorry for her. “You don’t have to do this. It’s already over.”

“You…” Ken’s thin lips parted slightly, but he realized that his voice had become hoarse. He covered his nose and coughed to get his voice back to normal. “How come you never told me this before?”

Melody shrugged. “You never asked me. Why would I bring up something so pathetic?”

“That’s true…” Ken paused and asked, “Did he really hit you?”

Melody lowered her eyes. She didn’t know if giving the order to dig out her heart counted as hitting. She remembered that when she found out that she was tricked by Ulric into the hospital and refused to give her heart to Mabel, Ulric did slap her.

Thinking of this, Melody nodded and agreed. The moment her voice fell, she could clearly see Ken’s eyes instantly darken, as if a hurricane had stirred up in the depths of his eyes. “What’s his name?”

Melody was shocked. She did not intend to say that she had been reborn. “Can we not talk about this again? I don’t want to talk about it anymore.”

“I understand.” Ken’s voice was low and hoarse. However, he vaguely thought of someone. ‘Ulric.’ He always felt that Melody seemed to have a strange hatred against Ulric.

Melody changed the topic and continued what she asked before. “Don’t forget about the divorce. Call me when you have time.”

Ken clenched his fists tightly on his lap. He did not want to progress so quickly, not to scare Melody. He hoped that they would be together naturally. In fact, he could even agree to a divorce first.

However, after hearing about those things today, he did not want to let go at all. He could not rest assured if he handed Melody over to any other man. Thinking of this, Ken directly refused, “I don’t agree to divorce.”

Melody was stunned and asked in shock, “Why?”

“No why. Anyway, I don’t agree to divorce.” Ken was serious.

‘What?’ Melody’s head was filled with confusion. She was about to ask again when her phone suddenly rang.

She had no choice but to take out her phone from her pocket. It was an unfamiliar number.

“Hello?” She picked up the call hesitantly and heard an old voice on the other end of the line. “Is this Morin Palmer?”

Melody was stunned. She asked in shock, “Mr. Chapman?” “Yes!” A joyful tone came from the other side.

“What can I do for you?” She asked.

“Thanks to your prescription, I’ve recovered. To express my gratitude, I want to invite you to River Hotel for dinner.”

Melody thought that there was nothing much to do tonight, so she nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll definitely be there.”

“That’s great!” He said happily on the other end of the phone. “I’ll get my grandson to pick you up. Where are you staying?”

“Just let him come to Herbathrive.”

“Okay, okay…” He hung up the phone after another round of gratitude.

Melody put down her phone and met Ken’s gaze. “Do you remember the illness of Mr. Chapman’s eyes?”

“You cured him?” Although it was a question, Ken was not surprised at all.

Melody nodded. “Yes, he said he would treat me to dinner tonight.”

“Tonight? Where?” Ken also found it unexpected.

“River Hotel,” Melody said.

Ken hesitated for a moment and said, “I have to go back to the hospital after the meeting in the afternoon to strengthen the manpower arrangements so that they won’t have the chance to attack Sid again. I’ll look for you after I’m done.”
