Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker

Melody did not bear Astrid’s words clearly for a moment. She only thought that Astrid thought that she wanted to marry Uine very much 

At the thought, Melody put away her expression and said expressionlessly, “Mrs. Swanson, don’t worry I wont INLIITY into the Swanson family even if I die” 

Its not easy for me to have the chance to live again. And I’m marrying Ulric again? Just thinking about it made Melody feel disgusted! 

“Huh” Astrid steered and said. “But aren’t you already married into the Swanson family? You’re so shameless. You’ve already gotten your mamage certificate, yet you still want to pretend to be high–hearted here. Who are you going to show it to? But let me remand you, it’s not so easy to be the daughter–in–law of the Swanson family. Be careful not to suffer a backlash!” 

With that, Astrid turned around and walked out. 

She did not want to look at Melody’s face for a second. 

She felt it was too disgusting! 

“Want” Melody hurriedly stopped Astrid. “What do you mean? What marriage certificate? Make it clear!” 

However, Astrid ignored her and quickly disappeared from the ward. 

Hey You… Melody hurriedly sat up from the bed and wanted to chase after her, but her hand was on an IV drip and she felt dizzy again. 

She had no choice but to sit back on the bed obediently. 

Outside the ward. Ulne said leisurely, “Don’t you want Pearly Antiques? I heard that Dad wants to expand Pearly Antiques and turn it into the number–one antique treasure shop in the country. From the looks of it, Dad probably won’t give Pearly Antiques to you or me for the time being” 

Although Pearly Antiques was only an antique treasure shop, it also contained auctioning antiques, treasure restoration, and various other derivative industries. 

The big shots and rich businessmen loved this the most. Therefore, even if the income of Pearly Antiques could not compare to a project of the Swanson Group, it was important for socializing. 

This was also why Ken couldn’t take back Pearly Antiques after so many years of hard work. 

Now that Ramon wanted to expand Pearly Antiques, it was bad news… 

However, this news came from Ulric’s mouth, so it was not certain if it was true. 

Ken looked at him coldly. Suddenly, Ken pursed his lips and sand with a half–smile, “I heard you went out this time to look for a rehabilitation doctor, right? You’re finally willing to treat your legs? What did the doctor say? Don’t tell me it’s too Late” 

Linc suddenly clenched his fists and was about to speak when Altrid walked out of the ward with a dark expression, as if she was furious with Melody 

The mother and son seemed to be no match for Ken… 

This feeling was maddening and suffocating! 

“Don’t worry “Ulnd took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress his emotions. “My legs will recover soon. At that time. Til directly enter the headquarters to work. Ken, you don’t have to worry about anything in Silverlake.” 

Ken shrigged nonchalantly as if he didn’t care 

Uine was instantly even angrier, but he did not want Ken to know that Ken had angered him. He could only endure the anger and throw the marriage certificate into Ken’s hand before controlling the wheelchair to leave. 

Before he left, he did not forget to mock Ken. “I wish you and the beautiful Miss Fox a blissful marriage!” 

Melody was so ugly. They could imagine mockery would spread throughout Silverlake once the news spread! 

Thinking of this Ulric’s mood improved a line. 

As the mother and son walked into the elevator, Ulric asked, “How did the investigation go? Why did she and Ken get marned!” 

Astrid choked 

She was too focused on bickering with Melody to find out anything. 

“Ahem!” Astrid coughed dryly and said. “You can rest assured. That girl only wants to marry into the Swanson family and climb the social ladder. Her words are vulgar! Inferior! She doesn’t look like a socialite at all. She’s exactly like a shrew in the countryside. You can completely believe what I’ve found about her. She’s just a village girl who grew up in the countryside! 

Seeing Astrid’s confident expression, Ulric let down his guard a little. 

Now, he could at least confirm that Ken had married a useless and ugly woman who was of no help to him. 

“From the looks of it, Ken did so because he wanted Margaret to have a great–grandson as soon as s possible. I admire his filial piety, but don’t let your guard down. If there’s any news about Melody, let me know immediately,” said Ulric. 

Although the truth was already in front of him, Ulric still felt uneasy. 

“Got it” Astrid nodded, but she didn’t take this matter to heart at all 

In her opinion, Melody had nothing that she should be wary of other than her medical skills. 

However, was that the case? 

Ken watched as the elevator door closed, and his dark eyes narrowed slightly, emitting a dangerous cold light 

He thought, This mother and son had better not think of snatching Pearly Antiques from me. Otherwise, I won’t be able to care about the Swanson family’s reputation. Based on everything that had happened in the past, I will tear apart this layer of the Swanson family’s cover without hesitation. 

ay from the elevator and walked into the ward, 

Ken looked away 

He had just heard from the nurse that Melody had woken up and her fever had just subsided, but she still needed to be hospitalized for another day of observation 

He looked at the marriage certificate in his hand, not knowing how he felt. 

However, Ken had just taken two steps into the ward when he saw Melody tinkering with her hands. It was as if she was planning to pull out the IV needle. 

Ken frowned and quickly stepped forward to hold her hand. 

“What are you doing?” Melody looked up 

and met Ken’s deep blick eyes. 

mention anything else, just this pair of eyes was 

yes was enough to make one sink into them. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

However, Melody only froze for a second. Then, she returned to her senses. 

“I want to talk to Astrid” She said anxiously. “She said that I married into the Swanson family. Do you know what happened 

As soon as she finished speaking, Melody saw the two red marriage certificates in Ken’s hands. 

Her eyes instantly widened as she thought, Could it be that I still can’t escape the fate of marrying Ulric? Will I still die in the hands of Ulric and Mabel no matter how hard I try? No! I won’t let it happen! 

Melody instantly lost her rationality. She snatched the marriage certificate and tore it into two, 

Ken, who had always been expressionless, was stunned. “You” 

“Even if I die, I won’t marry into the Swanson family! Please tell Ulric that I, an ugly village girl, am not worthy of him. Ask him to come over and divorce me immediately said Melody furiously. 

She did not want the tragic ending of her previous life to repeat itself 

“Ulnic!” Ken raised his eyebrows, knowing that Melody had made a mistake. 

She thought that the person she married was Ulric. 

Ken was silent for two seconds after knowing Melody was wrong Suddenly, he lowered his eyes and sneered. Tsk. All the girls in Silverlake treat Ulric as their dream lover. You’re special. If you don’t even want to marry Ulric, who do you want to marry? 

Melody blurted out, “As long as it’s not Ulric, I’m willing to marry anyone, even a beggar 

At least the beggar wouldn’t be two–faced and stab her in the back. 

Ken was stunned again and couldn’t help but ask suspiciously. What’s your beef with Ulric?”
