Chapter 63
Wilmot chuckled and said, “Because you needed help.
Melody was at a loss for words for a moment.
She only heard Walmat continue, I was indeed a bit unhappy at that time, but you’ve done me a favor, so I had to help you. But now that you’ve confessed to using me, it makes me even more certain that I’ve helped the right person. Miss Fox, you’re a good person.”
Good person Melody gave a bitter smile and said, “I’ve been too much of a good person before, which pushed me into hell: I don’t want to be a good person now, yet you still say I am!
Wilmot shook his head. “The world of adults isn’t just black and white. There’s also a place called the gray area. But I’m very sure now, Ms. Fox, that you are a good person. Few people have the courage to confess what they’ve done like you do. I know that you must have had a tough time in the Fox family and needed to use me. If you need my help in the future, just say the word, and I’ll be there.
“Thank you!” Melody expressed her gratitude sincerely.
At that moment, Wilmot’s phone rang. He glanced at the caller 10, and his expression changed immediately as he quickly answered the call. “Doctor, did something happen to my son?”
The other end of the phone said something, and Witmat’s expression quickly softened as he spoke gently. “Got it. I will bring you cake, and ‘I’ll be there soon.
Wilmot was in his thirties but, because he worked in the styling industry, he looked only in his twenties.
When speaking with his son, his expression was particularly soft.
Melody couldn’t help but be lost in thought if only she had fallen in love with like Wilmot in her previous life instead of Ulnic, she wouldn’t have ended up with her heart dug out and died tragically,
After a few words, Wilmot hung up the phone.
Melody emerged from her painful memories and spoke up at the right moment. “I’ve said what I needed to say. You should go to the hospital He must miss you a lot when he’s alone there.““”
“Okay.” Wilmot stood up and said, “Then I’ll take my leave first. As I said, if you need any help, just contact me
“Sure, thank you, Melody nodded.
After exchanging WhatsApp contact information, Wilmot left the coffee shop first, walking hurriedly.
It was evident that he was a good father.
Melody deliberately explained to Wilmot, partly because her conscience wouldn’t let her do otherwise, and partly because Wilmot was very useful to her. She was in urgent need of building connections.
Melody wasn’t in a hurry to leave, and she ordered another cup of juice from the waiter, sipping her juice and looking out the window.
Her seat had a perfect view of the community’s main entrance through the window, making it an ideal spot for waiting for someone.
During her wait, Melody went to the restroom and overheard two waitstaff gossiping about her and Wilmot.
“Did you see that handsome guy with the unattractive woman just now? That couple… tsk, the combination is quite surreal,” one said.
I saw them it’s like a real-life Beauty and the Beast, only reversed,” the other replied.
“The woman must be wealthy, otherwise, how could such a handsome man be interested in her?”
Melody didn’t expect to hear someone ridiculing her as she went to the restroom.
The two waitstaff continued their conversation.
“That man is really handsome! It’s a pity that such a handsome guy has become a gigolo!”
Is Wilmot handsome? She had seen Ulric’s face too many times in her previous life, and after interacting with Ken a few times, she had become immune to handsome guys.
However, she would try to trouble Wilmot less in the future. He was a good person, and she didn’t want him to get involved in her mess,
Naturally, she didn’t want to hear others say Wilmot was a gigolo.
The two waitstaff outside were still talking about Wilmot,
Melody pressed the flush button and stepped out of the stall.
In front of the stunned looks of the two waitstaff, she calmly walked to the sink to wash her hands, scaring the two into rigidity and silence.
But Melody didn’t say a word as if they were invisible to her. After washing her hands, she turned and walked out.
Just as the two waitstaff breathed a sigh of relief, thinking Melody hadn’t heard their conversation, Melady suddenly stopped, turned to them, and said; “I won’t be paying the bill today, and you know why!”
After speaking, she turned around and walked steadily back to the private room,
The two waitstaff hung their heads in regret. This was an upscale neighborhood, and the coffee in the café was quite expensive, equivalent to three days of their wages. But they had no choice, they could only regret being so gossipy and talkative.
Melody returned to the private room and continued to look out the window, her right index finger idly tapping on the table.
Not long after, Melody’s eyes suddenly brightened, and the corners of her lips slowly curved up. She saw a business car with the number entering the community. She then stood up and walked out of the private room.
When the two waitstaff saw her come out, they quickly apologized. “I’m sorry, miss. We were talkative and accidentally offended you. We’ve already paid for your order.”
Melody looked up at the two, her tone cool as she spoke. “First, you were not careless. You were deliberate, Second, gossiping about customers is your mistake, so I let you pay the bill. Third, you’ve already paid, and since I’m in a good mood today, this matter is over. Any more questions?”
The two were taken aback, feeling that although the girl in front of them was younger, her aura was overwhelming exerting pressure that made them feel they dared not look up.
For a moment, they just kept shaking their heads, not daring to say anything more…
Melody didn’t waste any more time with them and quickly left the coffee shop. The person she was waiting for had returned, and she needed to hurry back to watch the show.
When Melody arrived at the entrance of the villa, the business car had just parked, and Russell stepped out.
Yes, the person she was waiting for was Russell.
At this moment, Russel looked gloomy as if shrouded in dark clouds, clearly on the brink of anger. Melody, however, boldly greeted him.
Dad, you’re back! She said, feigning surprise and asking, why do you look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?
NO, Russell shook his head, his face dark as he asked: “Where’s your mother?”
“Oh, you mean Yolanda. “Melody pointed inside and said, She should be home now.”
Without another word, Russell stormed in, filled with rage.
Melody smiled with pursed lips and quickly followed. The show was about to start and she had to find a good spot to watch.
Inside the villa, Yolanda was very angry about the contract issue.
She had just taken the quick-acting heart medicine and blood pressure-lowering medication handed to her by the servant, preparing to take it, when she saw Russell walk in with a face as dark as ink.
Looking behind him, Russell was followed by Melody, who seemed to be smiling mockingly.
Yolanda’s heart skipped a beat and a very bad premonition suddenly rose.
But she maintained her composure very well on the surface, standing up from the sofa.
