Chapter 644
Just as Melody was tense, the man bowed respectfully to her.
“Miss Fox, I’m number, Spencer. Mr. Swanson has asked me to replace Seventeen, my senior, to protect you for the next few days.”
Melody nodded and handed the car keys to him.
“You drive. Let’s go to First Hospital.”
“Yes!” Spencer said nothing else. He took the thermos boxes from Melody and escorted her to the car.
If Seventeen didn’t have much of his personality, Spencer was even better than Seventeen. Melody would almost forget his existence if she did not deliberately pay attention to him.
Spencer was completely invisible. It could be seen that the death warriors trained by Ken were becoming more and more like robots.
Melody was not supportive of Ken training these people. Then she accidentally heard James mention that those people were supposed to die, but Ken managed to save them. They would have long been gone from the world if it were not for Ken.
They chose to live that way.
Moreover, the death warriors would have a chance to choose to leave or stay when they reached 30 years old. They could sign a confidentiality agreement and leave if they didn’t want to do it.
However, according to James, no one else left other than one death warrior who was found to have chronic diseases and chose to leave.
Moreover, after the death warrior left, Ken even gave him a large sum of money that was enough for him to live the rest of his life without worry.
Only then did Melody slightly change her opinion of the existence of the death warriors. There was nothing wrong with it since they had chosen their way of living.
Soon, the car stopped in the parking lot of Central Hospital.
Melody wanted Spencer to stay in the car and wait for her, but Spencer did not seem to understand her words and followed her like a statue.
Melody could only bring Spencer, the statue, to Colin and Beverly.
She had been too busy recently and could not find time to visit them, so Colin and Beverly felt a sense of joy at seeing her after a long time.
Melody put down the two thermos boxes and said, “It is the ravioli made by Momma Talia. It has the effect of strengthening immunity to prevent colds. It should taste good. Try it.”
“I’m not eating,” said Colin, waving his hand. “I just ate two servings of spaghetti. Beverly has a little appetite and only ate a few before she stopped eating. I was afraid of wasting them, so I swallowed them all. Look at my stomach…”
Colin straightened his back. He, who was originally slightly thin, now had a belly.
Colin had gained weight by accompanying Beverly in the ward during this period.
“Then I’ll bring the remaining box to Dr. Stanton. If I remember right, he should be working the night shift today,” Melody said with a smile.
Colin nodded repeatedly. “Give it to Dr. Stanton. If I want to eat it, I’ll share it with Beverly. Dr. Stanton takes care of us a lot. Please help me organize a dinner with him to express our gratitude when we’re discharged.”
“No problem. However, you don’t have to find an expensive restaurant. Their hospital is strict. Mr. Stanton can’t go to a high-end restaurant.”
Colin took note of it seriously.
After saying goodbye to Colin and Beverly and handing the ravioli to Rodney, Melody returned to the car and asked Spencer to drive her to the Swanson Group headquarters.
However, Melody was stopped by the receptionist when she arrived.
“What are you?” asked the receptionist.
Melody pointed at Spencer, carrying two thermos boxes behind her, and said, “I’m here to deliver food to Mr… Mr. Swanson.”
“Deliver food? If Mr. Swanson wants to eat. We’ll be responsible for sending the food up to him. You two can’t go up without an appointment.”
As the receptionist spoke, she exchanged glances with her colleague and started discussing mockingly in front of Melody.
“Is she the first one here today?”
“I can’t remember, but this one is undoubtedly the ugliest. I wonder which rich family’s daughter she is. Doesn’t she have any self-awareness?”
“What rich daughter? I think the clothes she’s wearing are cheaper than mine.”
“No family background and no appearance. Tsk, I’m impressed by her courage.'”
Melody’s expression turned cold.
“I’m not joking with you,” said Melody.
The receptionist looked at her speechlessly.
“I’m not joking with you, too. I’ll call the security guard if you don’t leave now.”
Melody narrowed her eyes and said, “Do you know why the person who sat here before you was fired?”
The receptionist choked. “How did I know that?”
“That’s it,” Melody said calmly. “She was fired because she stopped me from going up.”
The receptionist was stunned. In the next second, she laughed wildly with her colleague.
“I’ve never heard such a funny joke in my life!”
After laughing until she couldn’t breathe, the receptionist held back her laughter and glared at Melody. “Are you done joking? Are you shameless? Do you think you can be shameless just because you’re ugly? I’ll count to three. If you don’t leave, I’ll call the security guard to kick you out!”
The colleague beside her pursed her lips impatiently. “Why are you wasting your breath on her? Just get someone to chase her away! I feel unlucky just looking at her poor appearance! Security! Come over quickly. Someone is causing trouble here!”
The security guard appeared in front of Melody in the next second.
Spencer quickly blocked in front of Melody. The murderous look on his face shocked the security guard.
Upon seeing the situation was not right, the receptionist hurriedly shouted, “Help! Someone is causing trouble! All security guards come here!”
Melody had a headache and massaged her temple.
She didn’t expect to experience this kind of thing again. She was annoyed.
Ken should be busy, so Melody called James.
As soon as the call was answered, Melody went straight to the point. “James, please come down here. I was stopped by your receptionist and security guard.”
Without waiting for James to answer, Melody hung up and said, “I don’t want to cause trouble. I believe you don’t want to either. Wait three more minutes if you don’t believe what I just said. Three minutes later, James will come down to pick me up.”
The receptionist found it even more funny.
“Well, who are you? There should be a limit to your bragging, okay? Do you know who Mr. Deeds is? You dare to call him by his name. I think you’re out of control.”
However, the security guard was calmer than the receptionist. He said, “Could what she said be true? Why don’t we wait for three minutes? Anyway, three minutes isn’t long. It won’t be good if it is a misunderstanding.”
Melody glanced at the security guard in admiration.
‘The security guards bring their brains to work this time,’ thought Melody.
The receptionist stomped her feet in frustration.
“Is three minutes short? The hall is so chaotic. If Mr. Swanson suddenly came down, he would scold me not you.
Her colleague was a little flustered. She lowered her voice and reminded the receptionist, “But since she can call out Mr. Deeds’s name. She may know Mr. Deeds. Let’s wait.”
After all, even they only knew Ken had a special assistant by his side after Ken officially joined the headquarters. His name was James Deeds, and he was the most popular person in front of Ken.
