Chapter 875
Ken Swanson was making a video call, so Melody Fox waved her hand to signal Ken Swanson to ignore it and get up to open the door.
When Melody Fox saw the two people at the door, she was both surprised and expected.
It was none other than Ming Haotian, who had been punched black and blue by Ken Swanson.
When Ming Haotian returned home, he had clearly been beaten up. There was a wound at the corner of his mouth, and he looked terrible.
Standing beside Ming Haotian was an old man who looked somewhat similar to Margaret Swanson. This was Margaret Swanson’s younger brother, Ken Swanson’s granduncle.
“Granduncle?” Melody Fox asked.
As expected, the other party nodded and said with a guilty expression, “I brought this evil creature to apologize to you…
It was said that this granduncle doted on Ming Haotian to the extreme. For him to actually attack Ming Haotian this time meant that he was truly angered.
“This…” Just as Melody Fox was at a loss for words, Ken Swanson ended the video conference early and walked over.
“Granduncle.”
He nodded slightly in greeting.
As his gaze swept across the Ming Haotian, who subconsciously shrunk his neck. It was obvious that he was very afraid of him.
Ken Swanson ignored the wound on Ming Haotian’s face and invited Old Master Ming in.
After sitting down, Old Master Ming explained his purpose for coming again.
“After this kid returned home, your people told me the cause and effect. It’s all because of the misfortune of the family that such an idiot appeared… Cough, cough, cough!”
Perhaps because he was too angry, Old Master Ming began to cough violently as he spoke.
Melody Fox quickly poured a glass of water for the other party.
After drinking two mouthfuls of water, Old Master Ming finally caught his breath.
She looked at Old Master Ming’s expression and asked, Granduncle, are you feeling unwell?”
Old Master Ming waved his hand and said, “It’s fine. The weather is hot and dry. I’m just coughing from a little heat. Evil creature, come over and apologize!”
Ming Haotian gritted his teeth and reluctantly muttered, “I didn’t do anything wrong. Why should I apologize? Even if I was in the wrong, I was the one who was beaten…”
“You bastard!”
Old Ming slammed the table and said, “If you don’t apologize to me honestly today, I won’t have a son like you!”
When Ming Haotian heard this, he became even more unrestrained.
“Dad, if you really want to cut ties with me, I have nothing to say! Jian Huan and I are truly in love. You can’t break us up just because the two families don’t have a good relationship! I can’t stand living without her anymore!”
As Ming Haotian spoke, he turned around and was about to rush out the door.
“Bastard! Come back!”
However, although Ming Haotian stopped in his tracks, he continued to speak ruthlessly.
“I can come back, but you have to accept Jian Huan. Otherwise… just pretend that you don’t have a son like me!” “You-“
Melody Fox suddenly said, “Granduncle, let him go. He will definitely come back in less than a week.”
Old Mister Ming looked at her hesitantly. Seeing that Ken Swanson also nodded, he said coldly to Minghao Tian, “Get lost! Come back and kneel and apologize when you’ve thought it through!”
“That day will never come!”
Ming Haotian turned around and rushed out of the door.
After Minghao Tian left, Old Master Ming quickly became worried.
“Ah Ken, Melody, will something happen to him…”
Melody Fox said, “Granduncle, listen to me. Stop his bank card and cut off all his sources of income. He will definitely give in.”
“This… What if the two of them elope?”
Melody Fox smiled gently and said, “You can rest assured about this. I can guarantee that Jian Huan is definitely not sincere to him. When he has a problem eating, we’ll know who really cares about him.”
Ken Swanson also said, “Granduncle, I remember that before you had Minghao Tian, you wanted to adopt a child from a branch family?”
Grandpa Ming nodded. “That’s right. This child is very pitiful. Both his parents died. Although I didn’t adopt him later, I helped him until now. This child is also very hardworking. He’s now a freshman at Insterimond University.”
“That’s good. Take this opportunity to acknowledge him as your son.”
Old Master Ming was stunned. After combining Melody Fox’s words, he quickly understood what Ken Swanson meant.
“You want to use him to make everyone think that I’ve really cut ties with that bastard?”
“Mm. If Jian Huan know that Ming Haotian lost his value, she’ll show her tail one day. If Minghao doesn’t see her true colors, he’ll be completely useless as a son. Let’s give him one last chance while there’s still hope.”
Old Master Ming gritted his teeth. He knew that if Ming Haotian continued like this, he would be crippled. Thus, he nodded vigorously. Alright, I’ll listen to you!
As for the person you want to acknowledge…
“Don’t worry, I’m not the kind of person to burn the bridge after crossing it. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, I’ll treat him as my biological son. I’ve had the intention to acknowledge him as my godson all these years, but because of that bastard’s personality, I’m afraid that if I acknowledge this child, that guy will be even more hopeless.”
Ken Swanson shook his head lightly.
“No, I still believe that Minghao Tian is not a bad person. As long as we see that woman’s true colors, I believe he will understand our good intentions. If he’s really hopeless, don’t you have another son?”
“Yes! Then it’s settled. I’ll arrange it tomorrow… Oh, no, I’ll arrange it tonight. I’ll let everyone I know ignore his life.” Old Ming stood up and quickly bade farewell.
After the door closed, Ken Swanson asked, “How can you be sure that Jian Huan isn’t sincere with him? If they really love each other, then what we asked Old Master Ming to do today will be a slap to our own faces.”
“I’ve seen her today,” Melody Fox said. “She’s a very high-ranking girl. The thing that makes me most certain that she doesn’t love Ming Haotian is that she’s sick. Although I didn’t take her pulse, I’m pretty sure she’s sick.”
“… Huh? What illness?”
Melody Fox deliberately kept him in suspense. “You’ll find out soon enough.”
Ken Swanson also cooperated and said, “Alright, I’ll keep an eye to see what strange illness she has. Now… it’s your turn to help me take a look at her illness.”
Melody Fox asked in shock, “Are you feeling unwell?”
Ken Swanson’s lips curled into a smile. That smile clearly meant something.
Melody Fox immediately understood. She immediately glared at him and said, “Don’t talk about these indecent things. I still have something to do.”
“It’s already so late at night. What else could it be?”
“I asked Number Spencer to get me a list of people who will be attending the auction tomorrow. when your granduncle came in, he sent me a text message saying that he had gotten it and was on his way back. He should be here soon.”
Ken Swanson sighed and said, “Alright, then you can treat me tomorrow.”
After saying that, Ken Swanson carried the computer with a regretful expression and went to deal with the matters of the Insterimond branch company.
Melody Fox shook her head with an incurable expression.
Who would have thought that this guy had such a side to him in private?
The refined scum was referring to him, right?
Coincidentally, Spencer arrived.
