Chapter 958
When Ken Swanson heard that she was worried about him, he subconsciously wanted to kiss her.
However, he remembered that he had a cold. He could only” brake” and open the car window to ventilate.
After doing all this, he still felt uneasy.
“I’ll go buy a mask and put it on. Or… shall we take two separate cars to the hospital?”
“It’s not necessary. Your cold is not a viral cold. It’s not contagious.”
Moreover, her physique was stronger than ordinary people. Ordinary poisons were not very effective on her, let alone a mere cold.
As they were talking, Aaron Berg came over.
He bent down and reported through the car window, “Sir, Miss Fox, it’s all taken care of.”
“Are you sure it’s clean?”
“Yes, we’ve already checked. No one lives there anymore. The lights are on, but they forgot to cut the electricity. When someone finds this place, I’m afraid it’ll be a long time since it’s a deserted place. Moreover, the scene has also been dealt with as if those people robbed the two doctors. Then, there was an internal fight, causing no one to survive.”
Ken Swanson nodded.
“Remember to deal with the surveillance cameras nearby.” “Don’t worry, it’s all taken care of.”
“Yes, you did well. Get in the car and let’s go to First Hospital.” Aaron Berg was surprised that he had to go back to the hospital again, but Ken Swanson had spoken, so he had no right to ask. Therefore, he directly replied respectfully, “Yes.” Then, he got into the car and drove.
Melody Fox looked at the scenery that kept retreating and could not help but sigh. “There are so many lives. I should go to hell after I die.”
“Then I’ll accompany you. My hands won’t be any cleaner. However, as a living King Yanluo, I’m afraid that I’ll still be able to hold a small official position in Hell. I’ll still be your backer even at the netherworld.”
“Tsk… You’re getting more and more glib-tongued. Did you learn it from Sid Quant?”
“I’m gifted. I’m self-taught.”
“Tsk!”
Melody Fox looked disgusted, but she took the initiative to interlock her fingers with Ken Swanson’s. The two of them smiled and saw themselves in each other’s eyes.
Soon, they arrived at the hospital.
After a blood test, it was confirmed that it was hot and humid cold like what Melody Fox mentioned.
The emergency doctor prescribed a few medicines. Melody Fox looked at them and asked the doctor to add another one.
Afraid that the other party would be dissatisfied, she added, “I’m his personal doctor, so I know him better.”
The doctor did not say anything else and immediately prescribed the medicine.
She borrowed the hospital’s water dispenser to get a glass of water and handed it to Ken Swanson.
“Take one pill for this one, two pills for this one, and a cup of warm water for this packet of medicine.” Melody Fox took out the pills one by one and gave them to Ken Swanson to swallow while staring at him.
Ken Swanson could not help but laugh.
“I’m not a kid anymore.”
In other words, he was not afraid of taking medicine and deliberately threw one away.
Melody Fox rolled her eyes at him and said, “That might not be the case. You’ve never taken your body seriously.”
“This…” Ken Swanson dragged out the word, “I learned this from you.”
“You-“
Melody Fox gritted her teeth in anger, but she could not refute.
After Ken Swanson swallowed the last pill, she said in an unquestionable tone, “Let’s go back to the hotel and sleep first. Then we’ll see how it goes and decide if we can go to work.”
“Okay.”.
Ken Swanson did not refute her, but he called the branch office on the way to the hotel.
“I might not be able to return to the office tonight. You guys go ahead and do your work. Call me if you have any questions.”
With that, he hung up the phone and closed his eyes to rest.
It was unknown if it was because of the cold or some ingredient in the cold medicine, but after a while, he fell into a deep sleep.
In his sleep, he realized that he was in the operating theater that he had dreamed of.
Last time, he hadn’t been able to see who the woman was lying on the operating table, but this time he saw-
The woman on the operating table looked exactly like Melody Fox.
Melody Fox’s chest was cut open by a scalpel, and her heart was forcefully removed. Then, her heart was thrown to the ground like trash.
Standing beside the operating table were Yolanda Fox and Mabel Fox.
A monstrous anger instantly spread throughout his entire body.
He wanted to scream and help Melody Fox kill these two bitches, but he realized that he was just a transparent fog. Not to mention making a sound, the people in the operating theater could not even see him.
‘How did that happen?’
Was he dreaming, or had he entered some kind of space of fear?
At the thought that Melody Fox’s heart might have really been dug out, his heart ached so much that he felt as if his heart had been dug out as well.
“Melody Fox!!! Melody Fox!!!”
He tried his best to turn the fog into a physical body, but no matter how hard he tried, it seemed to be in vain.
A man who looked exactly like him barged into the operating theater!
“How could this be…”
Before Ken Swanson could react, he saw Ulric Swanson following closely behind him into the operating theater. Meanwhile, Ulric Swanson was holding a dagger with a cold glint in his hand.
Just as the dagger was about to pierce through Melody Fox’s body, the other Ken seemed to have sensed it. He quickly turned around and picked up his pistol. Bang! He shot Ulric Swanson in the head.
Blood splattered everywhere, scaring Mabel Fox and her Yolanda mother into screaming.
However, the screams soon disappeared because the mother and daughter had also died under the other man’s hands.
The anger in Ken Swanson’s heart finally subsided a little because of this scene, but his heart still ached when he saw that Melody Fox had no signs of life.
It was as if this was not a dream, but something that really happened. It made people break down in pain.
Before he could say anything, the other man ran to the operating table and grabbed Melody Fox’s hand tightly. He seemed to be saying something.
Ken Swanson wanted to listen carefully, but he heard Melody Fox’s voice.
“Ken? Ken Swanson? Wake up…”
Ken Swanson suddenly opened his eyes and realized that Melody Fox, who had been lying on the operating table a moment ago, was now very close to him. Moreover, she was full of vigor and there were no signs of injuries at all.
“Miao, Melody…”
When he opened his mouth, he realized that his voice was as hoarse as if his vocal cords had been cut.
He simply reached out and hugged her tightly.
It was only when he felt the warmth and heartbeat of the person in his arms that his manic heart gradually calmed down.
Melody Fox felt that something was wrong with Ken Swanson. She was surprised and waited for Ken Swanson to let go of her before asking, “What’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?”
“Well … a … terrible, terrible nightmare.”
Melody Fox smiled and said, “I also had a few scary nightmares, but when I woke up, I realized that the dream was just a dream. There’s nothing to be afraid of. But what kind of dream did you have? You kept calling my name. I was shocked. Aaron Berg too. Let me wake you up quickly.” Ken Swanson had completely calmed down.
He opened his mouth, but finally said, “I’ll talk to you later. How long have I been asleep?”
“Almost an hour.”
“Already at the hotel?”
“Yes, we’ve been here for quite a while, but I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I didn’t wake you up and let you sleep in the car. But I checked your temperature and felt a little feverish. I saw that your nightmares were also related to the fever. Shall we go back to the hotel and drink some hot water?”
