Chapter 862
Spencer quickly answered Melody Fox’s question.
“Yes, Miss Fox. Moreover, our black market in Insterimond is more mature and well-informed than Silverlake.”
Melody Fox nodded and said, “Then find me the list of people who will participate in the auction tomorrow through the black market.”
Green Velvet was the last antidote she needed, special herbs, so the importance was self-evident.
If she could not get it this time, she would probably have to delay it until the next auction.
However, she did not know how long she would have to wait.
Ken Swanson was already preparing for the wedding. Although he deliberately hid it from her, she could still guess a little.
She hoped that she would become Ken Swanson’s bride soon, not with her current face.
“Do it well. The list must be as detailed as possible. It’s best if there’s information on each of them.”
“Yes!”
Spencer answered swiftly.
Compared to Aaron Berg’s mission, his mission would be completed very quickly. He did not even need to do it himself. He only needed to go to the black market and order the people there.
Therefore, before leaving, Aaron Berg explained to Spencer.
“When you’re done, return to Miss Fox immediately. To protect her, and don’t let her encounter any danger. If there’s anything urgent, contact me ASAP.”
Spencer felt inexplicably nervous.
“Aaron, do you mean that Miss Fox will be in danger?”
Aaron Berg looked at Spencer as if he were looking at an idiot.
“Is it dangerous to know in advance? I’m just afraid that something might happen. So come back as soon as possible after you’re done. Don’t wander around outside.”
“Don’t worry, I definitely won’t. As soon as I arrive at the black market, I’ll send a few people to protect Miss Fox.” “There’s no need for that. Miss Fox isn’t someone who likes to be high-profile. Moreover, there are many secret guards guarding her. According to Young Master’s instructions, they followed her here this time. What I want is another person to take care of everything on her behalf and listen to her orders.”
“I understand what you mean. I’ll return to Miss Fox immediately after I’m done.”
“Okay, then I’ll leave first. I have a lot of work to do. I have to go quickly.”
“Don’t worry, go ahead.”
Aaron Berg nodded and looked in the direction of the hotel again. Seeing Melody Fox get into the elevator, he turned around and left. Soon, he got into a car and disappeared into the traffic.
Spencer did not stay any longer. He adhered to the principle of going early and returning early and quickly set off for the black market.
In the hotel room.
Melody Fox rubbed her aching shoulders. Just as she was about to order a meal, her phone rang.
Melody Fox looked at the caller ID. It was an unknown number. It belonged to Insterimond.
Did Insterimond’s people call…
Puzzled, she answered.
“Hello?”
A rude voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.
“Are you from Silverlake?”
Melody Fox sounded very young and did not sound like Margaret’s younger brother. Hence, she asked, “Who are you?”
“My name is Ming Haotian. Ming Zhi is my father.”
Margaret Swanson’s name was Ming Margaret. Her younger brother’s name was Ming Zhi. It seemed that Ming Zhi did not have spare time, so asked his son to call over.
Melody Fox had no intention of deliberately getting close to the Mont family. She only wanted to give Margaret Swanson a gift, so she did not care who the person who came to take the gift.
However, out of politeness, she still introduced herself. Hello, my name is Melody Fox. I just arrived at Insterimond. I’m at…”
However, Ming Haotian did not care where she was at all. Without waiting for her, he said, “I’m at the HOT Bar. Bring the things here. Call me when you reach the door.”
Without waiting for Melody Fox to reply, Ming Haotian hung up.
“This person…” Melody Fox slowly frowned.
Didn’t they say that his granduncle was an honest person who was easy to talk to? Why was his son so rude?
However, no matter what the other party’s attitude was, since he was from Margaret Swanson’s family, she still had to call him uncle. Therefore, Melody Fox suppressed her displeasure.
However, she was not in a hurry to go over. Instead, she turned on her phone and checked the location of the HOT Bar.
HOT Bar happened to be not far from the University of Insterimond, so Melody Fox decided to go personally.
Originally, she had planned to send a secret guard to bring the gift over since her granduncle, the elder, did not come personally.
However, since the two places were less than ten minutes away by car, she might as well make a trip there herself.
It could also be considered as meeting this uncle who was not easy to talk to on the phone. Most rude people were petty. If she did not go personally, what if the other party was dissatisfied and deliberately gave her a hard time in the future? It would make things difficult for Ken Swanson.
After making up his mind, Melody Fox was not in a hurry to set off first. She asked the hotel to send a set meal The Washington Hotel looked ordinary, but the food surprisingly matched her appetite.
After eating and drinking her fill, she went downstairs and hailed a taxi to the HOT bar according to what the other party had mentioned.
It was only three or four in the afternoon. Logically speaking, the bar was not open at this time. Could it be that this uncle owned a bar?
After thinking about it, Melody Fox still called Ken Swanson. After all, it was a little strange to meet at a bar.
After explaining the purpose of her visit, Ken Swanson explained, “He doesn’t own a bar. My granduncle spoiled his son so much that he went to all kinds of places every day. Also, strictly speaking, that shop isn’t a bar. It’s just a KTV that looks like a bar. It used to be a bar, but the owner didn’t change its name. By the way, he’s a year younger than you. You don’t have to treat that guy like an elder. Just throw the things to him and leave.”
“What?” Melody Fox asked in amusement, “A person a year younger than me is actually your uncle?”
“What uncle? I call him by his name directly. He’s just a little hooligan. Don’t bother with him. You can just ask someone to send the things in.”
“Then it’s better not to. I’m already in the past, not to mention that your grandmother personally instructed me to do so. It’s better for me to personally deliver the things to him so that I can report back. Otherwise, Grandma will think that I don’t care about what she instructed me to do.” “Since you’ve decided, go ahead. Although Minghao Tian is a playboy and has become more and more unreasonable over the years, he’s not a heinous person. His nature isn’t bad.”
“Yes, I understand. By the way, where are you now? Are you still at the branch office?”
“Yes, I just finished reading their new season’s account book. It’s running fine. I plan to go to the old residence of the Swanson family now.”
Melody Fox knew that Ken Swanson was going to the Swanson family’s old residence mainly to investigate the matter of the raw jade stone that contained the Gu worm, so she did not ask further. She only said “Be careful” and hung up. Another hour passed. After the sun gradually set, Melody finally arrived at the HOT bar.
