Chapter 877
With a loud bang, before Mabel could say anything, she had already fallen into a pool of blood with her eyes wide open.
Soon, her pupils dilated and she lost all signs of life.
Yolanda Fox didn’t come back to her senses until Mabel Fox’s blood flowed to the soles of her shoes.
“Wei, Mabel!!!”
Yolanda Fox was about to crouch down and carry Mabel Fox when another gunshot rang out. The back of Yolanda Fox’s head was hit by a bullet and she fell straight onto Mabel Fox’s body.
Two overlapping corpses fell into Melody Fox’s line of sight. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.
Did Ken Swanson just… kill Yolanda Fox and her daughter? Did he kill them for me?
On the other side, Ulric Swanson was also in great shock.
“Are you crazy?”
Ken Swanson did not even look at Ulric Swanson. He shouted at the door in a low voice, “Everyone, come in.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people barged in from outside the operating theater. Led by James Deeds, they pressed Ulric Swanson to the ground.
“Take him away!” Ken Swanson waved his hand and walked straight to the operating table without looking at Ulric Swanson again.
Melody Fox looked at herself on the operating table. She could not tell reality from a dream.
If this was a dream, how could it be so real and repetitive?
But if it wasn’t a dream, how could she explain her floating and transparent state?
Meanwhile, Melody and Ken Swanson had already walked to the operating table.
Just as Melody Fox held her breath and waited to see what Ken Swanson would do, Someone suddenly shook her shoulder hard.
“Melody? Melody…”
Melody Fox suddenly opened her eyes and saw Ken Swanson in a suit standing by the bed. He held her shoulder with one hand and tried to wake her up.
Melody Fox was confused for two seconds before she came back to her senses.
She had been reborn.
This was a hotel in Insterimond.
She was dreaming just now.
“Melody?” Ken Swanson waved his hand in front of Melody Fox’s eyes and asked worriedly, “Are you feeling unwell?” Melody Fox had never slept deeply. Even the slightest movement when he woke up would wake her up, let alone someone like today who was already awake but still in a daze.
He subconsciously reached out to touch Melody Fox’s forehead. Seeing that the temperature on her forehead was not high, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, Melody Fox finally came to her senses. “I had a strange dream.”
Upon hearing this, Ken Swanson realized that she was not sick but had a nightmare. He felt completely relieved.
He laid down beside her and wrapped Melody Fox’s body tightly with the blanket. He asked patiently and gently,” What nightmare did you have?”
“I dreamed…”
Melody Fox did not know how to describe the dream.
After thinking for two seconds, she picked up a few points and said, “I dreamed that I was killed by Mabel Fox. Then, you helped me take revenge and killed Mabel Fox.”
Ken Swanson subconsciously tightened his grip on her. “Don’t be afraid. It’s just a dream. Think about it. How can she touch a single strand of your hair? With me around, I definitely won’t let you suffer any harm.”
Melody Fox nodded and curled up in Ken Swanson’s arms. However, at this moment, Ken Swanson spoke again.
“Speaking of which, I had a strange dream a while ago.”
“What dream?” Melody Fox looked up into Ken Swanson’s eyes.
His eyes were very dark, unlike hers. They were a little brown, so they looked much sharper than others. However, when she saw Ken Swanson’s eyes, the heavy feeling in her heart caused by the dream dissipated. Ken Swanson gently combed the hair on her forehead and said, “My dream was quite strange. I realized that I had turned into a ball of fog… I couldn’t tell if it was air or fog, but no one around me could see me. I saw you lying on the operating table, and a person who looked exactly like me forced his way into the operating theater.”
Melody Fox’s face suddenly turned pale.
Ken Swanson noticed her expression and asked with a smile, “What’s going on? You’re actually frightened by my dream again?”
Melody Fox tried her best to look calm.
She swallowed hard and asked, “Is there… anyone else in the operating theater?”
“Yes, There was.”
“…Who?”
“Mabel Fox, Ulric Swanson, and Mabel Fox’s dead mother are also there,” Ken Swanson said. He rubbed her head and said, “Since Yolanda Fox, this dead person, is in a dream, it means that this is a dream without any logic, so there’s no need to be afraid.”
Melody Fox opened her mouth. She really wanted to tell him that the dream she had should be exactly the same as her.
It was just that the perspective had changed from her to him.
But she swallowed the words.
At this moment, she suddenly understood.
That was not a dream at all!
Instead, her and Ken Swanson’s souls had returned to the time when she had died in her previous life!
Melody Fox felt a chill run down her spine.
She was afraid. She was afraid that if Ken Swanson knew her secret, he would think that she was a monster.
What was even more terrifying was that she was afraid that she would never be able to return after entering that dream again.
Since it was not a dream and she had returned to her previous life, he could not be sure if she would be lucky enough to return to the present every time.
“Melody, are you alright?” Ken Swanson reached out to hold her hand outside, only to find a layer of cold sweat on her palm.
“What are you…”
Melody Fox pinched her thigh with her other hand and tried her best to maintain her composure.
“I’m fine.” She forced a smile. “Maybe I didn’t sleep well. I’m a little dizzy.”
“Do you want me to call a doctor?”
“No need. I’m a doctor myself. Have you forgotten?”
“But you look awful.”
“That’s because my period is coming soon,” Melody Fox lied.
Ken Swanson said, “Your period is at the end of the month. There’s still half a month before the end of the month.”
“How did you-“
Ken Swanson glanced at her and asked, “Tell me the truth. Where are you feeling unwell?”
Melody Fox gritted her teeth and said, “It might be hypoglycemia.”
“You…”
“Get me some breakfast first. I promise that I’ll be fine after eating. If you don’t believe me, you can look at my condition until you’re satisfied.”
Ken Swanson was skeptical, but when he thought that it was indeed time for breakfast, he walked to the bed and made a call.
“Bring in the breakfast.”
After the call, Ken Swanson sat on the bed again and said, If you still look so pale after breakfast, you have to go to the hospital with me. Do you understand?”
“I understand…”
She tried her best to smile, but her heart was still in turmoil.
Not long after, Aaron Berg personally pushed the hotel’s food cart in.
She saw that the cart was filled with Insterimond specialty breakfasts, including old Insterimond bean juice, and other heavy-tasting things that ordinary people could not accept. Melody Fox knew at a glance that it was not the breakfast in the hotel. She heard Ken Swanson explain, “I thought that since it’s your first time in Insterimond, I didn’t bring you around yesterday, so I asked Aaron Berg to gather Insterimond’s special breakfast. If you don’t feel uncomfortable after eating later, I’ll bring you around.”
