Chapter 813
Mason gritted his teeth and said, “I also know that Miss Fox is a good person, but I can’t bet Taylor’s family’s future on this one in ten million possibilities.”
Ruby grabbed Mason’s sleeve.
“Can’t you trust my judgment for once? She wouldn’t be mad if she knew the truth.”
Mason smiled bitterly and said, “If I hadn’t said it clearly before I pretended to be sick, perhaps she really wouldn’t be angry, but it’s too late now… The mistake has already been made. If it were you, wouldn’t you also be very angry that I lied to you, let alone her?”
“Honey, even if you don’t think about me, you have to think about the child in your stomach. Just cooperate with me and put on this show…”
“Get lost! I don’t want to see you!”
Ruby pushed Mason Taylor away and quickly walked out of the ward.
Mason was about to chase after her, but he stopped in his tracks.
He knew his wife. She would compromise eventually.
And that was indeed the case.
In the end, Ruby compromised. This time, she could cooperate with Mason to act, but the condition was that Mason must find a way to help Melody Fox get the Green Velvet in the future.
The production process for Green Velvet was very complex, with a maximum of five produced in an attempt to be successful.
She directly forced Mason to swear that out of the five Green Velvet pills produced the next year, she had to leave one for Melody Fox.
Of course, Mason agreed repeatedly.
Even so, Ruby still felt ashamed and apologetic for lying.
After crying for a while, Ruby finally suppressed the emotions in her heart.
She checked herself in the mirror, retouched her makeup, and noticed that her eyes were a little red.
She had no choice but to stay in the bathroom for a while longer and wait for her eyes to recover before going out.
Meanwhile, Melody was greeting “Doctor Mu”.
“Doctor Mu, you’re here? Have you finished what you wanted to do in the afternoon?”,
“It’s done. I talked to the person in charge of the ‘rat extermination’ for a long time. I plan to figure out the scale of the rats at home first before making a specific plan. I’ll try to find a chance to catch them all in one fell swoop.”
Only Melody could understand what Quentin Parker said.
After saying that, he scanned the entire second floor and asked, “Where’s your man, Mr. Swanson?”
The words “your man” obviously carried a hint of ridicule, but this ridicule was not directed at Melody, but at Ken Swanson.
Melody had already figured out that her master was like this because he cared about her, so she did not care about her master’s tone and only smiled. “He should be here soon.”
“Oh…” Quentin Parker dragged out the word. “It’s my fault. The Young Master of the Swanson Group who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, why did he come so early like me? Those with high statuses are always the finale!”
“Mas… Doctor Mu…” Melody Fox helplessly tried to help Ken Swanson explain.
However, when she thought of Colin Herbert’s words, “No father will like his son-in-law,” she immediately swallowed her words and changed her words to cooperate with Quentin Parker “You should teach him the right lesson. Even though you came, he still didn’t come early. How embarrassing! He thinks too highly of himself.”
“Don’t misunderstand. I will not teach him a lesson.”
Although Quentin Parker said that, he still enjoyed Melody’s words and revealed a satisfied expression.
He had raised his disciple with a handful of sh*t and pee. In the end, he was still close to her.
No matter what methods that kid called Ken Swanson used, it was impossible for him to replace his position in his disciple’s heart.
Melody observed Quentin Parker’s expression and silently hid the smile on her lips.
Her master had always been an old urchin. Although he was old, he was often still a child in his heart.
If he wanted his master to change his opinion of Ken Swanson, he had to stand on his master’s side first and not stand against him to speak up for Ken Swanson. Otherwise, it would only backfire.
After figuring this out, Melody worked even harder to “slander”
Ken Swanson.
“Actually, Ken Swanson has a lot of shortcomings. Not only is he not as handsome as you, but he’s also often one-track-minded. Oh right, he’s also a little obsessed with cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive disorder. I can’t stand him even if I’m his wife. If it weren’t for the fact that he treats me very well, he wouldn’t have had the chance to be with me.”
Quentin Parker’s mood became even better when he heard that. He no longer targeted Ken Swanson. Instead, he took a step back and said, “You can’t say that. No one is perfect. If you want to find a husband, you have to find someone who treats you well. Appearance is not the most important thing. Besides, in the entire Halcyon, not many people can be as handsome as your master.”
Melody was very cooperative with Quentin Parker’s smelly fart.
“You’re right! In my heart, you’re the most powerful and handsome!”
The truth was that the young Quentin Parker was indeed quite handsome. In that era, he was very popular with girls. However, compared to Ken Swanson, who was good-looking, it was simply a dimensional blow.
But Melody realized something in the blink of an eye.
She looked up at Quentin Parker and asked, “Doctor Mu, how do you know that he’s the young master of the Swanson family?”
She never mentioned Ken Swanson’s family background to Quentin Parker.
Quentin choked. He covered his nose and coughed dryly. “I heard it by chance!”
After saying that, he found an excuse and left in a hurry, afraid that Melody would ask more questions.
In fact, he didn’t hear about it by chance.
Instead, they asked Colin Herbert and the Special Task Force about Ken Swanson.
Although suppressing malicious doctors’s faction was important, the important matters in his disciple’s life were equally important.
Needless to say, Colin Herbert was full of praises for Ken Swanson, while some of the Special Task Force’s people praised him, and there was no lack of negative news about him.
The rumor that bothered him the most was that Ken Swanson had personally crippled his half-brother’s legs a few years ago.
It was said that he had taken action when his younger brother had only accidentally broken one of his toys.
If this rumor was true, even if he had a big fight with Melody Fox, he would not agree to her being with such a ruthless person.
At the same time, Ken, who had just reached the entrance of the hotel, suddenly sneezed.
His suit jacket today was quite thick. Why did he sneeze for no reason?
Later, when he got home, he had to get Melody to give him a prescription to prevent him from catching a cold.
Ken Swanson tidied his sleeves and led James Deeds towards Colin Herbert and Beverly Herbert.
When the two of them saw Ken Swanson, their expressions could not help but become nervous.
“Mr. Swanson… Please come in!” Colin Herbert politely made a “please” gesture. His smile was filled with restraint.
Although Herbathrive was the largest traditional medicine Pavilion in Silverlake, his status and identity were still incomparable to Ken Swanson.
Therefore, even if the other party was his goddaughter’s husband, he couldn’t call him by his name.
Ken Swanson could tell that the couple was uncomfortable. He curled his lips into a smile and tried his best to make his naturally cold face look more genial.
“Hello, Godfather and Godmother. This is a small gift I brought over. Because it happened suddenly, I bought it from Lin Store. I hope you don’t mind.”
As soon as he finished speaking, James Deeds, who was behind him, walked forward with various expensive gift boxes.
