Melody Strikes Back
Chapter 186
âYou know, no matter what it is, practice makes perfect. Itâs the same with that aspect,â Susan said and winked at her again
Melody looked confused. âWhat?â
âOld Miss Fox!â Susan said shydy. âYou know..â
âHuh? What?â Melody was even more confused. She felt like she was the wrong audience and did not understand what Susan was saying at all.
Seeing that she still did not understand, Susan was about to be more straightforward when she heard footsteps coming from the stairs.
It was Ken
âMiss Fox, weâll talk next time?â Susan smiled and left. She secretly decided to make some nourishing dishes for Ken
The two of them went out and got into the car. Ken stepped on the accelerator and asked, âWhat did Susan say to you? Her smile was a little
strange
Melody shook her head and repeated Susanâs words. âI donât really understand. Do you know what it means?â
She
turned her head and saw a hint of discomfort on Kerâs face. He seemed to blush.
She had never seen such a Ken before.
Melody could not help but wave her hand in front of Ken and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âIâm line.â Ken shook his head and said seriously, Tm driving. Donât block my eyes!â
âOh..â Melody quickly retracted her hand and asked again, âWhat does Susan meant I will donât understand.â
âYou donât have to understand, Ken said. He coughed before continuing, âSheâs menopausal. Sometimes, her words are incomprehensibleâ
âI seeâ Melody was relieved and stopped thinking abour Susanâs
The next day, Ken looked at the breakfast Oysters with Garlic and could not help but fall into a strange silence.
Of course, that was for later.
When Melody arrived home, it was already completely dark. The moon was on the sky. As soon as Melody got out of the car, she saw Russellâs car In front of the house.
Russell was back
The lights in the villa were as bright as day, and she had a bad feeling.
After saying goodbye to Ken, Melody
ly took a deep breath and stepped through the door
As soon as she walked into the living room, a coffee cup flew toward her face.
Melody was shocked and quickly dodged.
The cup slammed into the wall behind her and instantly shattered.
She looked at the living room in shock and saw Mabel cowering in the corner, not daring to make a sound.
Meanwhile, Russell was scolding Yolanda with a livid expression, âI work day and night outside. What did you do! Fairlee called me. How long are you going to hide it from me?â
Yolandaâs eyes were red, and her li
hands were tigbaly gripping the hem of her skirt.
She had bribed so many people, hoping that they would not tell anyone what happened at the birthday banquet. However, she did not expect Fairder to be so ruthless as to call Russell directly.
After the incident was exposed, Russell scolded her so badly that she did not know how to answer. When she saw Melody return from the corner of her eye, she immediately had a plan in her bean. She pointed at Melody and said, âItâs all because of her! She was the one who schemed against MalÉrl and made Mabel a thief in the eyes of those peoplet Russell, you can hit me and scold me, but I have to make this clear. The culprit is Melody!
Russell stopped scolding and glareid fiercely at Melody. âYourâ
Melody had already guessed what was going on. Just as she was about to speak, Mabel cried pitifully and said, âDad, you know me best. How can I be the kind of person who steals someoneâs bracelet? The one who stole it was clearly Melody! She placed the bracelet she stole from Fairlee on me when I wasnât paying attention, causing such a misunderstanding. You have to uphold justice!â
âReally?â Russell frowned and asked hesitantly
âAbsolutely! Think about it carefully, have 1 ever stolen since I was young!â As Mabel spoke, tears ran down her face at the right time. The tears on her face made Mabelâs originally exquisite face look even more pitiful. It made people feel sorry for her.
Seeing this, Russellâs heart immediately became firm.
âBitch! Come here!â He glared at Melody. He was angry, so his eyes bulged slightly, making him look like a manâeating demon.
Melody looked at Russell, who was on the verge of exploding, and suddenly smiled.
There was mockery and indescribable calmness in her smile
That smale gave Yolanda and Mabel goosebumps.
âDad.â She took two steps forward and looked at Russell. âMabel doesnât steal, but does that mean I steal? Why should I steal the bracelet and frame Mabel? What good would in do me? If the matter is exposed, wonât I be the first to suffer?â
When Russell heard Melodyâs words, he could not help but feel suspicious again.
âI swear to Godâ Melody placed her hand on her chest and said, âIf I steal the bracelet. I will be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!â
Her every word was extremely
nely powerful as if she was determined to face the consequences.
Yolanda saw that Russell was starting to waver. She quickly went forward and said, âSwearing is the most useless thing. You framed Mabel and made Mabel lose her fatherâs trust. This is your motive!â
Mabel said with a hurt expression, âMelody, Dad treats you the same as he treats me. Why did you use this trick to frame n me? This is not only embarrassing me, but also our entire family. How could you do this? You disappoint me!â
Yolanda and Mabel echoed each other. Russellâs expression turned unpleasant again, and his eyes seemed to be spitting fire. âMelody, tell me whatâs going on!â
Melody said calmly, âDad, Yolanda, donât forget that the one with the strongest motive is not me. Itâs Fairlee! Have you forgotten what happened on
is Margaretâs birthday party? Because of a misunderstanding. Barclay was injured and hospitalized. Fairlee dotes on Barclay the most. How can she let this go so easily? She even invited us to her birthday party, Wasnât she clearly trying to frame ustâ
Russell also knew what happened to the Swanson family. When he heard this, he could not help but look up. âFairleeâ¦â
Seeing this, Yolanda immediately decided to use her trump card and said, âRussell, letâs not talk about whether Fairlee is behind this. Letâs talk about Melody. She has a criminal record for stealing! Do you know what happened during the few days you were on a business trip?â
âA criminal record? Russellâs anger subsided slightly. He looked at Yolanda with fury in his eyes and asked in a low voice, âWhat criminal record? What happened in the past few days?â
âMy bank cardââ Yolanda took our a bank card from her bag and held it in front of Russell. âI suddenly lost 4 million dollars in my bank card!â
