Chapter 853

However, Melody Fox had always wanted to know if she had been reborn into her own self in another world, or had she returned to the present from the past?

However, this answer was destined to be unanswerable.

Rodney Stanton observed Melody Fox’s expression. When he saw that she was suddenly depressed, he did not know what he had said wrong. He quickly changed the topic and asked, “How confident are you about Zhang Wenbin’s illness?”

Melody Fox came back to her senses and replied, “I can’t be sure at the moment. I have to perform acupuncture three times. If it works, I’m 90% sure, but if it doesn’t work at all…” Rodney Stanton could not help but feel nervous.

Melody Fox smiled and said, “If it doesn’t work, I’ll hire another doctor.”

Rodney Stanton was puzzled.

“Is there anyone better than you?”

“Of course, there’s always someone better.”

When Rodney Stanton heard this, he fell into a dilemma.

He really wanted to see the doctor whose medical skills were even better than Melody Fox’s, but if he wanted to see him, the price was that Miss Fox would not be able to treat Zhang Wenbin.

Therefore, after thinking about it, he still prayed in his heart that he did not need to see the doctor Melody Fox mentioned.

Before she left, Melody Fox suddenly thought of something. “By the way, if Zhang Wenbin’s sister, Zhang Wenwen, asks, don’t use my real name. Just use Wilona Knowles’s fake name. Zhang Wenwen is a very good girl. I’m afraid that if she finds out that I’m really helping her, she’ll feel psychological pressure. I’ll talk to her when Zhang Wenbin recovers.”

Rodney Stanton nodded repeatedly. “Don’t worry, I won’t casually reveal your identity to the public. However, you said that you’re going to Insterimond… Can I ask a favor? I wonder if you have free time to help me.” “Tell me.”

“I have a friend whom I’ve known since a long ago. His surname is Qian, and he lives in Insterimond now. A few days ago, he called me and said that he was not in good health and wanted to see me. If you have free time, can you help me visit him? That way, he won’t have to go back and forth between Insterimond and Silverlake.’

“No problem. I’ll call if I have time. Just arrange for him to meet me.”

“Thank you, Miss Fox. My friend comes from a good family. In his early years, his family was a miner. If he gives you the consultation fee, you can accept it directly. You don’t have to reject it on account of our relationship. Otherwise, he will be embarrassed.”

“Alright, I understand.”

After saying goodbye to Rodney Stanton, Melody received a photo from Ruby before returning to the manor.

The photo showed two tickets and the flight will be at 10 a.m. tomorrow.

It was a little earlier than she had expected.

After replying, she went to check Margaret Swanson.

After the incident with Astrid Swanson, Margaret Swanson looked much more dispirited than before.

Melody Fox was worried about Margaret Swanson’s health, so she gave Lucy Colt a prescription to ease her depression.

When Margaret Swanson heard this, she stopped her “I’m not that weak. There’s no need to give me medicine. I’ll recover soon.”

Melody Fox and Lucy Colt looked at each other and could only agree helplessly.

“By the way,” Melody Fox said, “Grandma, I’m going to Insterimond tomorrow. If you have any snacks you want to eat, I can bring them back for you as souvenirs.”

“Insterimond, huh…”

Margaret Swanson said, “My family is in Insterimond. I haven’t visited them in a long time. However, my body can’t take it these few days, so I won’t go with you. I’ll get Lucy Colt to prepare a gift tonight. I’ll give it to you tomorrow morning. Help me bring it over and distribute it to the juniors over there.”

“Okay, no problem.”

Margaret Swanson responded and gave her another call. “When you’re free, just call this number and hand the gift to this person. My family has a large population. You must have something important to do when you go to Insterimond. Don’t waste time to deal with those people. Meet him directly at the given time and hand the gift to him.”

“This is…”

“It’s my younger brother, your granduncle. He’s very honest and doesn’t talk much. He won’t delay your business.” “Alright, I’ll go straight to Granduncle when I reach Insterimond.”

“Yes, it is getting late. You should rest early too. You’ll definitely be tired from the flight tomorrow. Don’t tire yourself out.”

Melody Fox nodded and reminded Margaret Swanson to be more optimistic before turning around and leaving.

“Margaret Swanson.” Lucy Colt looked at Melody Fox’s departing figure and said, “Mrs. Swanson is also giving you a prescription for your own good. Are you really not going to take a few pills?”

Margaret Swanson waved her hand.

“Haven’t I taken enough medicine all these years? I’ve survived my previous serious illness. I don’t have to die with people like Astrid Swanson now. Don’t worry about me. I know my own body very well. I’m not sick, it’s just… it’s just…

Margaret Swanson did not finish her sentence.

She was only worried that if Astrid Swanson died, Ken Swanson and Ulric Swanson would never be able to repair their relationship.

Once there was internal strife in the family…

Margaret Swanson massaged her temples, not daring to continue thinking about it.

She could only pray in her heart that the day when the two brothers completely broke up would not come.

She looked up and asked, “Didn’t Ulric Swanson have a girlfriend before? Let her come to our house tomorrow. I’ll help him check.”

If she was a good girl, she would settle the marriage.

When a man had a family, he would have more worries. He would not risk everything to fight with his brother.

Lucy Colt quickly agreed.

“Yes, I’ll arrange for that lady to come over tomorrow.”

Π

On the other side, Melody Fox returned to their room and realized that Ken Swanson had yet to return.

She glanced at the time. It was already past eleven o’clock. Nothing had happened, right?

Since James Deeds was not by Ken Swanson’s side, she felt a little uneasy.

After thinking about it, Melody Fox decided to call Ken Swanson.

However, a woman answered the call.

“Hello? Who are you?”

The pleasant female voice made Melody Fox frown.

“You’re looking for Ken Swanson. Who are you?”

“I’m…-“

Before the other party could finish speaking, he stopped abruptly and picked up the call instead.

“Melody? What can I do for you?”

Melody Fox vaguely felt a little uncomfortable, but she suppressed her displeasure and said, “I see that you’re not back yet. I’m asking if you’re coming back.”

“I’m just getting ready to come back. I should be home in about twenty minutes.”

“Okay, then come back early. Ruby has already bought a few tickets. She’ll be at the airport at ten o’clock tomorrow morning. She doesn’t know that you’re going to come. Remember to buy yourself a plane ticket.”

“Yes, I understand. You should rest first. You don’t have to wait for me. The flight is at ten o’clock. We have to leave at seven-thirty.”

“It’s okay. I’ll wait for you to come back.”

As Melody Fox spoke, she ended the call.

In the end, she did not ask who the woman who answered the phone was.

She must have been overthinking. Perhaps she was a hotel attendant or an assistant…
