Chapter 79

Behind them, Janet was also quietly talking to Ken. Ken, what is that girl’s identity? Why do you insist on taking her home?

If at first, because of Melody’s appearance, she didn’t take Melody seriously and disdain to consider Melody as a rival, then now she had reached the point of being wary of Melody.

After all, Janet had been in the same school with Ken since high school and had never seen Ken take the initiative to take anyone other than her.

Even for Janet, whether Kenn took her or not depended on whether he was in a good mood. This kind of eagerness to take someone home was something that had never happened.

Ken spoke without much emotion. It’s just a coincidence that it’s on the way. The hotel you’re staying in now is nearby, right?

Janet was taken aback and looked deeply at Ken. Is it really just like this?

Else? Ken paused and suddenly added, She has been treating grandma recently. So her safety is very important to me. I can’t let her get too close to that kind of man, in case it affects Grandma’s treatment.

Upon hearing this, Janet’s tense nerves suddenly relaxed.

So it was for Margaret.

No wonder.

Janet relaxed her body in an instant and even put on a smile, saying, I can’t see it. She looks much younger than me, but her medical skills are so good that she can treat your grandma. Country girls are not necessarily all incompetent.

Ken’s face, however, looked gloomy upon hearing this, Janet.

His voice was very cold, causing Janet’s back to stiffen, and she looked at him in surprise and asked, What’s wrong?

You have been living abroad for so many years, and I think you should not be like those ordinary people, judging a person by their background or growth environment.

Janet was a little dissatisfied in her heart.

Was this blaming her for that ugly girl?

Ken had never blamed her before.

But it had to be admitted that what Ken said does make sense. Whether a person was excellent or not had nothing to do with their background and growth environment. There were examples around her of people who had made a comeback from poor families.

But Janet was still very unhappy.

Janet’s face sank, and she gave a slight nod.

In front of them, Wilmot and Janet had already finished talking, and Ken stepped forward and said, Mr. Sherman, you go ahead. We’ll wait for the driver to bring the car over.

Wilmot’s face was not looking good, but he still nodded gracefully and waved goodbye to the three of them, walking around the front of the car and getting in.

Ken slightly raised his head and watched Wilmot drive away, like a victor.

But he himself didn’t know why he felt this way.

He only know that seeing Wilmot and Melody chatting and laughing made him feel very uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable.

However, this discomfort came really inexplicably, and he didn’t understand himself and didn’t want to understand for the time being.

Soon, Wilmot’s car merged into the traffic and was no longer distinguishable, and the driver also brought the car over.

The journey was quiet, Janet didn’t speak, Ken was busy with official business with his head down, and Melody was pretending to sleep with her eyes closed.

According to her understanding of the Fox family, she knew that a huge storm was waiting for her at home at the moment.

But no matter how terrible the situation was, as long as one was prepared in advance, there was no need to fear.

Just as the car was about to arrive at the entrance of the Fox family, Ken suddenly spoke. “Wilmot is not a good person. If you have a good impression of him, I suggest you think it over again.”

Wilmot said Ken was not a good person, and Ken said Wilmot was not a good person. What was this all about…

She didn’t think she had anything worth being deceived for now.

Moreover, in this life, she didn’t intend to be a good person either.

Melody slightly pursed her lips and slowly said, “Thank you for the reminder, but Mr. Sherman is a good person, I know.”

Ken’s face instantly became gloomy.

So, she really had a good impression of that stylist?

If that’s the case, her taste was just too bad!

Ken’s face became uglier and uglier, and he even didn’t want to see Melody for the time being. The car was still about 200 feet away from the community when he stepped on the brakes directly.

“Here we are. Get out!” He almost used a tone of driving people away.

Melody should be angry, right?

Admittedly, Melody’s angry appearance was more pleasing than her current polite manner.

However, Melody was not angry but instead thanked him politely, even kindly reminding them to be careful on the road, and then got out of the car with a smile.

“This woman..“Ken muttered, staring at Melody’s retreating figure.

Why did he feel more and more confused about her?

“Ken” Janet suddenly spoke next to him, interrupting his gaze at Melody’s departing figure.

“What is it?” Ken looked back, his face already back to its usual coldness.

Janet couldn’t help but frown. “You and she…

Hafl the words were already out of her mouth, but for some reason, Janet suddenly lost interest, shook her head, and said, “Forget it, it’s nothing. Let’s go I didn’t quite have enough to eat just now. Can you accompany me to have some barbecues? There’s no authentic barbecues abroad.”

While complaining, Janet showed a pitiful expression like a little girl.

This really didn’t match her usual character, but for some reason, it naturally revealed itself when facing Ken.

But what Janet never expected was that Ken actually shook his head and refused. Sorry, I might not have time to accompany you to have barbecues today.

Janet’s expression darkened, but she wouldn’t insist like a little girl throwing a tantrum.

She tried to show a considerate smile and said, “I understand. You must have a lot of things to do when you come back to Silverlake this time. I won’t take up your time. Just take me back to the hotel. I’ll order takeout from the hotel. You can focus on your busy schedule, and I’m just going to choose a house these days.”

“Choose a house?” A touch of surprise appeared on Ken’s cold face. “Aren’t you going back to the Isterimond headquarters?”

The first thing Janet had to do when she came back this time was to transfer the focus of the company’s development from abroad back to the Insterimond headquarters, and all of this must be completed in Insterimond.

Although there was a branch in Silverlake, many things still need to be handled at the headquarters,

Janet shrugged and said, “Mr. Ken, do you really not know how to take care of girls? I just came back, and I haven’t even adjusted my jet lag yet, and you’re urging me to work at Insterimond”

“Sorry….

Ken himself was a person who never got tired of working, but he overlooked the fact that not everyone was like him, let alone that Janet was a woman

A woman….

Once the awareness of gender appeared, Ken couldn’t help but look at Janet.

He had always only regarded Janet as a partner and didn’t even realize that Janet was also a woman.

With this look, the once thin and short girl had grown into a strong and determined woman.

Janet was suddenly stared at by Ken, and her cheeks couldn’t help but burn, and her heart beat rapidly.

“What’s… what’s wrong. Janet touched her cheek, somewhat embarrassed to ask, “Is there something on my face?”
