Chapter 754

Ken Swanson looked at Melody Fox and confirmed, “You really didn’t go to a law firm to divorce me?”

Melody Fox felt helpless and amused.

Patiently, she repeated, “Didn’t I tell you? I went to find the lawyer for Dorrene Downey.”

After receiving an affirmative answer from Melody Fox, Ken Swanson could no longer suppress his emotions and pulled her into his arms.

Melody Fox’s body stiffened. She subconsciously wanted to push Ken Swanson away.

However, for some reason, her body seemed to have suddenly lost control. The hand that she had pushed away actually lost its strength.

Right at that moment, Ken Swanson’s voice came from above.

“I’m sorry…”

Melody Fox could clearly feel the tremor in his chest.

“It’s alright…” Melody Fox completely gave up the struggle in her heart. She lowered her eyes and said, “It’s just a misunderstanding. Just explain it clearly. I will hide the reason from Dorrene Downey…”

“It has nothing to do with Dorrene Downey.”

“Hmm? Then your apology is…?”

Ken Swanson slowly loosened his grip on her. He looked straight at her and said, “I’ve deliberately avoided you for the past two days and made you feel uncomfortable.”

Melody Fox shook her head. “It’s fine. You’re in a bad mood too, aren’t you?”

“Then…”

Ken Swanson’s throat moved up and down. He mustered his courage and said, “Can you promise me one thing?”

“Tell me.”

Ken Swanson took a deep breath and said, “Before you have someone you like, don’t divorce me, okay?”

The inferiority in his eyes was obvious.

She had never seen such a Ken Swanson before.

In her impression, he had always been the high and mighty Mr. Ken Swanson. It always made her feel that she could only dream of him.

But now, he was humbly begging her not to get a divorce.

It would be a lie to say that she was not moved.

Moreover, after this incident, she realized that she had long crossed the hurdle of feelings in her heart.

She thought that she no longer had the ability to love someone wholeheartedly. She was also afraid of being hurt again, so when faced with Ken Swanson’s confession, she pretended that Fox did not accept it.

But today, she realized that she had actually crossed this hurdle long ago.

Moreover, as the two of them had gone through life and death together many times, her feelings for Ken Swanson were deeper than her feelings for Ulric Swanson in her previous life.

Hence, she was willing to take another gamble!

Even if it might be worse than her previous life and covered in wounds, she was willing to use all her courage to walk towards him!

Melody Fox’s gaze became more and more determined.

She looked deeply at Ken Swanson and nodded hard. “I promise you, but the prerequisite needs to be changed.” “Yes?”

“The premise is not that I have someone I like, but… before you fall in love with someone else.”

“W-What do you mean?”

It was probably too sudden for Ken Swanson to react in time. What Melody Fox meant was: I won’t divorce you until you like someone else.

As long as he still liked her, she would always be with him!

“Don’t you understand? When did your brain become so stupid?” Melody Fox glared at Ken Swanson.

She had finally mustered up the courage to say this, but this stupid person actually did not understand!

Ken Swanson’s eyes widened in surprise.

“If you still don’t understand, I’m leaving,” she said and was about to walk out.

However, she had only taken one step when she was pulled back by Ken Swanson.

Melody Fox’s body fell into Ken Swanson’s arms due to inertia.

Before she could regain her balance, Ken Swanson’s thin lips landed heavily on hers. The overwhelming kiss came with scorching heat, resolute love, and intense excitement…

All sorts of emotions were mixed into the passionate kiss.

The surrounding air seemed to emit the fresh fragrance of bellflowers.

And the flower language of the bellflower was: eternal and unrepentant love.

This was not the first time he had kissed her.

However, at the class reunion, the fake kiss was just a one-sided kiss.

But this time, Melody Fox finally mustered up the courage to respond.

Sensing Melody Fox’s response, Ken Swanson’s blood seemed to boil. He wished he could swallow her up.

After an unknown period of time, as long as a century, Ken Swanson finally let her go.

Melody Fox panted. She could not breathe as she leaned weakly in Ken Swanson’s arms.

Ken Swanson lowered his eyes and smiled. His heart was filled with satisfaction.

The two of them steadied their breathing. Ken Swanson was the first to break the silence. He hugged her and said, “I promise you that you will be the only woman in my life.” Melody Fox had mixed feelings.

“Don’t say such things. A lifetime is too long. I only fight for every day.”

In the end, her view of love had changed because of Ulric Swanson.

She did not care how long she could be with Ken Swanson. She only cared that they were in love now.

Ken Swanson frowned.

“What else you can tell me? Who made you become like this? At your age, you shouldn’t be like this…”

He could not see any hope for the future in her eyes.

Melody Fox looked away and said, “I don’t really want to talk about this right now.”

“It’s fine. Tell me when you want to tell me one day. I’m all ears.”

As Ken Swanson spoke, he kissed Melody Fox again.

Melody Fox quickly pushed him away and said, “Don’t forget that this is an office!”

“So what?”

It was not easy for him to kiss her openly. Who dared to interfere?

However, just as this thought appeared, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

The two of them looked at the door and saw James Deeds panting as he said, “Young Master, bad news…”

As soon as he finished speaking, he instinctively felt the coldness emanating from Ken Swanson.

He subconsciously shivered, but when he thought of the urgency of the situation, he could only brace himself and continue.

“Director Fei and Director Xiang have betrayed us again.” These two people had betrayed Ken Swanson after Ulric Swanson was brought to the police station. However, not long after Ulric Swanson was released, they actually stood on Ulric Swanson’s side again.

Melody Fox immediately knew that it was a company matter. She quickly said to Ken Swanson, “You guys chat. I’ll go look for the project manager you arranged for me.

Where is he?”

“I’ll get someone to take you there.”

Ken Swanson pressed the internal line and called his assistant.

“Take Miss Fox to Manager Jiang He.”

“Yes.” The assistant did not doubt him and gestured for Melody Fox to go ahead.

Melody Fox was about to follow when she heard Ken Swanson call out to her, “Melody, wait a minute.”

“Yes?”

“Come back to me when you’re done talking. We’ll go see Sid Quant together. He’s awake today.”

“Alright.” Melody Fox nodded and left the office.

James Deeds could clearly feel that something was wrong with the two of them.

These two people… their gazes could even pull silk, okay?

So they were officially together?

However, even if James Deeds had a hundred guts, he would not dare to ask Ken Swanson about his private matters so directly. He might as well pretend that he did not discover anything.

Ken Swanson asked, “What did Fei Yun and Xiang Jianxiong do?”
