Chapter 861
Insterimond university.
Yannick Frost had mentioned to her before that Insterimond University wanted to recruit some special talents this year.
She could sign up for any of their special talents, such as painting, chess… and so on.
In Yannick Frost’s original words-
“After registration, you only need to register over there. If one doesn’t represent the school, she will have a graduation certificate from Insterimond University. Moreover, this graduation certificate is even more valuable than SAT.”
Of the appointments that had given her, it had not been made public.
Coincidentally, she had come to Insterimond this time. The specific date and time of the exams had also been announced in three days.
Along the way, Melody Fox thought carefully about what she had to do in the next few days. Ruby Taylor was obviously in a daze. She thought that she had lied to Melody Fox.
The car was silent, and the driver couldn’t help but become more cautious.
The airport of Insterimond was located in a remote location. The car drove for nearly two hours to the Washington Hotel.
The Washington Hotel was just an Insterimond ordinary five-star hotel. It was not very famous.
However, because the auction tomorrow would be held in the guild hall opposite the Washington Hotel, Ruby Taylor chose this hotel for convenience.
Melody Fox was not picky about her accommodation. On the way, she saw that there were shopping malls and snack streets around the Washington Hotel, so she was even more satisfied with this place.
At the very least, it was very convenient to buy something.
However, as soon as she checked the map, she blushed with shame.
The Washington Hotel was a car ride away from Insterimond University, and it was based on the fact that there was no traffic jam.
It seemed that she had to choose the day after tomorrow to register for the special talent selection examination at Insterimond University. Or she could only squeeze some time in the afternoon to do what Margaret Swanson had instructed her to do.
However, she would probably have to wake up early in the morning to make it for the exam in three days.
“What’s wrong? Don’t you like this one? Then let’s change to another one. How about the Insterimond Grand Hotel? The environment is much better than here. It’s the best hotel in Insterimond.”
Ruby Taylor observed Melody Fox’s expression and thought that she was complaining about the D.C. Hotel, so she quickly brought her out of the hotel.
“No, no. It doesn’t matter where I live.” Melody Fox quickly pulled Ruby Taylor’s back and said, “I’m not that picky.” “Then just now you…
Melody Fox said truthfully, “It’s because I have to go to Insterimond University for the exam in the next three days. I’m afraid I’ll have to wake up early because it’s too far away. However, I suddenly thought that after I get the Green Velvet tomorrow, I could move to a hotel near Insterimond University, so I could stay here today and tomorrow. Moreover, this hotel is quite good. In addition, my requirements for the hotel are only cleanliness and safety, so there’s really no need to change hotels!”
Ruby Taylor heaved a sigh of relief.
If it were not the case, Ruby Taylor would definitely know that Melody Fox was not the kind of person who would be picky. But now, Melody Fox’s every move made her feel like she was sitting on pins and needles, afraid that Melody Fox would notice something.
She genuinely liked Melody Fox and was grateful to Melody Fox, so she didn’t want to lose such a friend because of her and Mason’s lies.
However, Ruby Taylor quickly caught the words “after getting the Green Velvet tomorrow” in Melody Fox’s words. Her heart that had fallen was in her throat again.
She felt guilty and did not dare to look at Melody Fox. She lowered her head and played with her nails as she said, “It’s good that you don’t mind this hotel. Then go and check in first. I’ll wait for you here.”
Melody Fox asked in confusion, “Aren’t you going to check in?”
Ruby Taylor explained, “I won’t stay in a hotel anymore. I’ll stay at home.”
Melody Fox slapped her head.
“Look at my brain… I almost forgot that the Taylor family is a native of the Insterimond people. You guys only moved to Silverlake in the past two years.”
Ruby Taylor smiled apologetically and said, “I’m sorry, I want you to stay in a hotel alone. I originally wanted you to stay at my and Mason’s house, but this is the first time I’ve returned to Insterimond after I got pregnant. There must be a group of people looking for me. I was afraid that too many people would disturb you, so I let you stay here.”
“What’s wrong with that? Go home quickly. The adults at home will definitely want to see you. Just don’t tire yourself out. You don’t have to wait for me. Go back first. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Ruby Taylor nodded. She did not dare to look at Melody Fox’s bright eyes anymore. She held her bag tightly and left with her bodyguards.
Someone had come to pick up Ruby Taylor long ago and was waiting at the entrance of the hotel.
Melody Fox watched as Ruby left in a car. She did not turn around and return to the hotel. Instead, she stood at the door for a while.
Aaron Berg, who had followed her in Insterimond reminded Melody Fox, “Miss Fox, aren’t you going to check in?”
Only then did Melody Fox come back to her senses. Instead of answering Aaron Berg, she asked, “Don’t you think Ruby looks a little strange?”
“Huh? In what way? You’re not allowed to stay with her?”
“Of course not. It’s… Forget it. You haven’t interacted much with Ruby Taylor. It’s normal that you can’t tell the difference. Besides, it’s possible that I’m only being paranoid.”
However, Spencer, who was beside Aaron Berg, could not help but say, “Miss Fox, actually, I also think… Mrs. Taylor looks a little strange.”
Melody Fox raised an eyebrow.
“Yes, I almost forgot that after Seventeen was injured, you followed me to see her a few times. Tell me, what’s strange about her?”
When some people were in the fog, they could not see anything nearby. However, those standing outside the fog could see more clearly.
Spencer thought about how to open his mouth before saying, I remember that Mrs. Taylor was always smiling happily when she saw you before. But this time, although she also smiled, that smile felt a little…”
“Forcing a smile,” Melody Fox replied.
“Yes! She’s forcing a smile. And Mrs. Taylor doesn’t even dare to look into your eyes this time, as if she’s done something wrong to you. In short, it’s just strange.”
Melody Fox looked away, but she kept repeating Spencer’s words.
“It’s as if she did something to let me down…”
But what could Ruby Taylor do to let her down? Not only that, Ruby Taylor even personally accompanied her to Insterimond to participate in the Green Velvet’s auction. Could it be that… there was a problem with the auction? Thinking of this possibility, Melody Fox frowned slightly.
“Aaron Berg, I have a mission for you.”
“Whatever you say.”
“Go and check if anything happened in Taylor family auctions.”
“This… You’re a little broad. I wonder what exactly I want to investigate?”
“We’ll investigate anything related to the Taylor family and Mr. Lou. Let’s see if he has come into contact with anyone with an extraordinary status recently. Of course… Insterimond is filled with capable people. Nine out of ten people who are hit by a piece of glass are of noble status.
Therefore, you had to investigate the background of the person who had not interacted much with him but had suddenly started interacting with him.
“Of course, you have to check everything that happened in the Taylor family and report it to me in detail.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Melody Fox looked at Spencer again and said, “I remember that Insterimond also has a black market, right?”
