Chapter 570
Melody did not stay. Instead, she quietly followed the young nurse. After confirming that Regina would not come this way, Melody immediately quickened her pace and stopped that nurse. “Um, hello…”
The nurse stopped in her tracks and was secretly shocked when she saw the red spots on Melody’s terrifying face. However, as a nurse, she had seen numerous bloody scenes, let alone an ugly face.
She calmed down and squeezed out a smile. “What’s the matter?”
“It’s like this… I heard that an excellent doctor called Dr. Knowles came to your hospital. I wonder if she has any appointments tomorrow. I want to bring a friend of mine to see her.”
The nurse said apologetically, “Dr. Knowles is going to operate on the director’s wife tomorrow, so she won’t be working at the outpatient clinic. You can make an appointment with her on your phone so that you won’t miss it.”
“The director’s wife’s surgery? What illness does she have?” Melody asked.
“Well…” The nurses paused.
When Melody saw the young nurse hesitate, she immediately smiled and said, “Don’t misunderstand. I know your director’s wife, so I asked. It doesn’t matter if it’s inconvenient.”
“So you two know each other. It’s not serious, just a hip replacement surgery. However, because the hospital director’s wife is older and has other chronic illnesses, this surgery is relatively more difficult. However, with Dr. Knowles around, there will definitely be no problem.” The nurse’s words revealed her trust in Dr. Knowles’s medical skills.
Melody smiled and nodded. “Yes, the surgery will definitely be completed successfully. I wonder when the surgery will be. I’ll come and see her then.”
“At ten o’clock in the morning. The surgery will take about two hours,” the nurse answered.
“Alright, I got it. Thank you.” Melody waved her hand and turned to leave.
She was worried that malicious doctors’ clues would stop, but Regina came at the right time. She and her mother had disappeared for so long, but it turned out that they had changed their names.
Then Melody quickened her pace to finish the two checkups. Soon, the medical report was out.
The doctor said, “Miss Fox, the CT scan and ultrasound show that your abdomen is normal. There are no injuries or bleeding inside. I’ll prescribe some ointment. Apply it and rub your abdomen for a while every day. The bruises should disappear in three days.”
“Thank you.” Melody was afraid that Ken would find fault again, so she took the prescription and pulled him out quickly.
Ken lowered his eyes and glanced at the two of them holding hands. His thin lips parted, and there was a hint of doting in his eyes. ‘This girl…’
As soon as the two of them got into the car, Melody immediately told Ken that she had bumped into Regina impersonating her.
Ken was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang.
She couldn’t hear what the person on the other end of the phone said, but Ken’s expression suddenly became even colder and more solemn than usual.
“I understand. Keep a close eye on her movements.” As soon as he finished speaking, Ken cut off the call and looked at the curious Melody. “It’s from the person I planted beside Ulric. The woman who treated Ulric’s leg illness is called Jennie Taylor.”
Melody’s eyes widened. “Jennie!”
It was Regina’s mother.
She clenched her fists and said, “Looks like we have to deal with Regina tomorrow. Once Jennie cures Ulric’s legs, the consequences will be serious.”
Ken had the same idea. He nodded and said, “Jennie is now living in the place arranged by Ulric. The security nearby is very tight. We can’t go to catch her rashly. o her daughter is the key.”
“Well, she’s coming to the hospital tomorrow to operate on the director’s wife. I’ll find the right moment and arrest her for probable cause.” Melody nodded.
Ken’s gaze landed on her abdomen. “Are you feeling well? You’ve been busy all day.”
“I’m fine,” Melody said firmly. “This concerns malicious doctors. I don’t trust anyone else to handle it.”
“Alright, I’ll cooperate with you the entire time at the entrance of the hospital. But for now, let’s eat first.” He got a food box from somewhere and opened it on the spacious table in the car.
Melody looked down and realized that they were all her favorite dishes. “When… did you get someone to cook these?”
“When you were doing the checkup,” Ken said casually.
“Thank you, let’s eat together.” She picked up some food for him.
Ken didn’t refuse. He had been busy all day, and this was the first taste of food other than breakfast today.
However, even though his stomach had become a little sore from not eating for a long time, his eating posture still carried the elegance of an aristocrat. It was a stark contrast to Melody, who was devouring.
Melody realized that she looked kind of rude and subconsciously slowed down.
However, Ken said, “Don’t worry about that. Eat your food. Your table manners are very cute.”
The corners of Melody’s mouth twitched stiffly. Clearly, she did not take Ken’s words seriously.
With her current face, if Ken didn’t feel disgusted when eating with her, it could be said that his mental fortitude was extremely strong.
Just as Melody was considering whether to turn around and eat, there was a knock on the car window. She quickly put down the food and looked out of the window warily. Seeing that it was the death warrior Seventeen, she felt relieved.
However, she was still a little curious about where he went when she and Ruby left the restaurant.
Ken gave her a look that told her to continue eating. He reached out and lowered the car window.
Seventeen did not see Melody sitting on the other side of the window. He thought that there was only Ken in the car.
After calling out “Mr. Swanson” respectfully, Seventeen went straight to the point. “Everything has been settled. There won’t be any fingerprints left at the scene.
“As for Wendell, we’ve already revealed it to him. Now he knows that you’ve obtained evidence that Cadence attempted to frame Miss Fox. He definitely won’t dare to mention Miss Fox to the police again. And it was useless even if he continued to make a scene because he did not have any evidence.
“At the same time, the past scandals of Cadence have been posted online, including some dirty things that Wendell did. I’m afraid he is busy enough with himself…”
Seventeen reported everything in detail. Every word he said was heard by Melody.
So Ken handled so many things for her without her knowing.
Initially, she thought that he would at most get rid of the fingerprints in the room. ‘But now that he has done so much for me, why did he just casually mention it?’ she wondered.
The sweet feeling in her heart surged again. Melody tried her best to calm her heartbeat by pressing a specific acupoint.
