Chapter 224
On the other end of the line, Troy deliberately kept Russell at dispense for a long time before calling him back.
He had previously learned from Pamela that Russell did not like Melody, so he planned to use Russell to teach Melody a lesson.
Without the Clark Group’s order, the Justalion Group probably wouldn’t be able to hold on for long. He knew that Russell would definitely jump up and down in anxiety. And now, it was time to make things clear.
When Russell heard Troy’s mocking tone, he was neither anxious nor angry. Instead, he put on a smile and said. “My staff me that you withdrew the
order.
Troy snorted and did not notice that Russell’s tone was off. He said arrogantly. “It seems like you still don’t know what happened.”
“What happened?” Russell pretended not to know and wanted to play with Troy
Troy briefly explained the detention of Melody and Pamela. Then, he said fiercely. “If you don’t make that bitch pay the price, the Clark Group will never cooperate with you again. Think about it!”
The corners of Russell’s lips curled up as he said, “Mr. Clark, you’re wrong. How can I take my anger out on my biological daughter for the company’s matters? Since Mr. Clark suspects that we want to terminate the collaboration, terminate the contract as you wish! I get the financial evaluation for the termination fee of the contract later. I won’t get involved. I hope Mr. Clark can transfer the termination fee as soon as possible so that we won’t look bad in court.”
Troy choked. He didn’t believe what he had just heard. This was not the Russell he knew,
He said. “Russell, are you drunk? Did you hear what I said? Compared to the penalty, losing our orders is a greater loss, right?”
Russell said slowly, “It used to be like this, but not anymore.”
Troy asked, “What do you mean? Do you actually want me to do this for your ugly daughter! Have you thought it through?”
Russell said coldly. “Troy, if you dare to use the word ugly to describe my daughter again, I won’t be polite to you!”
In the past, he also felt that Melody had embarrassed him, but he no longer felt that way. This girl was his fortune tree. As long as she was by his side, he would be lucky
Troy was furious. “Russell, are you crazy!”
Russell chuckled and said, “I think you’re the one who’s crazy. Looks like you haven’t seen the news online. Your company is going to be finished soon, and you still have the mood to talk nonsense with me? Go online and take a look! Idiot!”
After scolding him, Russell hung up the phone and blocked Tray. His anger from being bullied by Troy for a long time instantly dissipated. He felt very satisfied.
He drove home in a good mood, humming along the way. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Melody was his lucky star. He even regretted not bringing Melody back earlier.
At the same time, Melody got into Ken’s car
Ken glanced at her calmly and said, “You’ve caused such a big trouble. Your father will take at least a few days to calm down. You can stay at my place for the next few days until the storm blows over,“
Melody nodded. “Thank you.”
Ken said, “It’s no trouble. In the future, you’ll cook meals at home every day as accommodation fees.”
Melody pursed her lips. She thought. ‘He is really unwilling to suffer any losses.
However, she was going to start developing a new product for Wilmot tomorrow. During this period of time, she could not be disturbed at all. She indeed needed to stay at Ken’s residence for a period of time.
With that thought in mind. Melody happily agreed. “Alright, I’ll prepare all three meals every day
Ken did not comment, but the corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly.
The car quickly arrived at the entrance of Serenity Villa.
Melody could not help but sigh. She did not expect to end up staying here at night after going to the banquet.

Susan, who had received the news already, was eagerly looking around at the door. When she saw the two of them get out of the car, she quickly greeted them with a smile.
“Miss Fox, you’re finally here! Susan smiled and said. Tve already prepared a room for you. The bedsheets and bedding are all new. I hope you can get used to it.”
“Thank you, Susan. Melody’s heart warmed as she said. She could not resist sincere kindness.
However, Melody did not notice that Ken, who was behind her, watched her and Susan enter the door. His eyes were as deep as a deep pool,
As soon as the two of them entered, Susan asked with concern, “Have you eaten?”
Melody had not realized that she had not even had a drop of water for the entire night, let alone eaten. When Susan asked this, she suddenly felt a little lungry.
She smiled sheepishly. “Not yet.”
Susan asked. “Til make food for you. What do you want to eat?”
Ken, who was beside him, said calmly, “Susan, don’t bother. She’ll be in charge of the meals at home for the next few days. Let her cook
The smile on Melody’s face stiffened. She thought, “What an evil capitalist!
She took a deep breath and maintained a smile on her face. “Susan, you should rest. I’ll make dinner.
“This Susan looked at Ken but did not dare to refute. She could only enter the kitchen to help Melody.
Melody looked at the ingredients at home and decided to make two bowls of spaghetti.
Susan said apologetically. “Mr. Ken has very high requirements for food. I don’t even dare to hoard things. I buy and make them on the spot.
“It’s fine. Two bowls of spaghetti are enough for now,” Melody said as she got to work.
The first step w
was to boil water
While waiting for the water to boil. Susan praised, “Your cooking must be very good.”
Melody asked. “Do you want some? I’ll cook three bowls.”
“No need, no need, Susan waved her hand and said. “You’ve misunderstood me. I don’t want to eat spaghetti. Do you still remember the last time you cooked oatmeal for Mr. Ken!”
Melody said. “I remember. Why?”
Susan looked outside. After confirming that Ken would not come in, she lowered her voice and said. “The oatmeal you made for lunch last time. Mr. Ken even asked me to heat up the leftover for dinner.”
Melody recalled and asked. “Didn’t we finish it at noon? Shane didn’t have enough back then.
Susan lowered her voice again. “Actually, Mr. Ken secretly hid a bowl.”
Melody paused and looked at Susan in disbelief. “Really?”
Melody was even more shocked.
She thought, “Isn’t that guy too petry? It is fine if he doesn’t like Wilmot, but he even hid children’s food. It seems that I still know too little of him.
Susan did not know what Melody was thinking. She did not notice her frowning expression and was secretly happy. She thought, “Since I have revealed this information, Miss Fox should know Mr. Ken’s intentions, right?”
At that moment, the water boiled.
The two bowls of spaghetti went into the pot and quickly softened.
Melody carefully scooped it out and added specially made ingredients.
With a ripping sound, the originally bland spaghetti instantly turned into delicious food.
Melody carried the spaghetti out. Susan stayed in the kitchen to clean up.
The two of them sat opposite each other. At this moment, Ken’s phone on the table rang
Melody subconsciously glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Janet
