Melody Strikes Back
Chapter 119
Just as she was about to say her teacherâs name, Melody hesitated.
After all, her teacher did not want the world to know he was still alive.
However, the person in front of her was Colin. With her understanding of him, he would not tell anyone.
After hesitating for two seconds. Melody continued decisively, âMy teacherâs name is Quentin Parkerâ
As soon as Melody finished speaking, Colinâs pupils dilated visibly. He even staggered two steps back, looking extremely
shocked.
When David saw this, he could not help but ask in confusion, âMr. Herbert, who is Quentin? Why do you have such a big
reaction?â
Davidâs voice rang out, and Colin recovered from his shock. His voice was a little hoarse as he said, âIf we have a ranking in the traditional medicine world, heâs the number one,â
After Colin said this. Davidâs eyes widened in surprise.
The two of them looked at Melody and revealed looks of disbelief.
âMiss Fox is the disciple of a medical big shot? No wonder I had never seen the prescriptions written by her elsewhere every time: David thought.
On the other hand, Colin remained hesitant
He asked, âAlthough Iâve never seen Mr. Parker, Iâve heard from my master that heâs been dead for many years. May I ask when Mr. Parker took you in as his student?â
âWhen I was fourâ When she said this, Melodyâs expression was calm, making Colin feel that she did not seem to be lying,
âIf this is true⦠Should I still call this young lady my teacher? This is because Quentin had never really taken in a disciple. If this young lady is telling the truth, her medical skills must be better than mine. In this way. Deathtenaire wonât be used to harm others. It is because Mr. Parkerâs judgment was accurate. He was also strict when accepting disciples. He couldnât find someone with evil intentions to be his disciple. With that in mind, Colon could not help but scrutinize Melody seriously.
After a while, Colin said, âAlthough you mentioned Mr. Parkerâs name, many people in the traditional medicine community knew about him. Iâm still not sure if what you said is true. Do you have any way to prove it?â
Melody thought about it and said. âMy teacher doesnât want the world to know heâs still alive, so I canât call him over to prove it for me. However, I can use the medical skills that my teacher taught me to prove it. If a patient with a difficult illness comes to Herbathrive, you can inform me, and Iâll treat him. At that time, you can judge if what I said is true. How about that?â
Upon hearing this, Colin thought for a few seconds and nodded. âAlright. If you can prove it with your medical skills, I can give you Deathtenaire for free. I can also make an exception and hire you to come to Herbathrive for consultation.â
Herbathrive had become the biggest traditional medicine shop and clinic in Silverlake. They had more than twenty doctors here. Money was not that important to Colin.
Melody was not surprised to hear this. She extended her hand to Colin and said, âThen itâs settled. I wish us a happy cooperation in advance
Just as Colin was about to extend his hand, he heard footsteps behind him. Then, an elegant and gentle voice sounded. âColin, are there guests?â
Chapter 119
Melody hurriedly looked up and happened to meet Beverlyâs gaze.
The current Beverly did not look sick at all. She looked radiant. She was wearing an inkâcolored dress, looking gentle and elegant
Colin could not be bothered to shake Melodyâs hand anymore. He quickly walked over and held his wifeâs hand. âDid I wake you up?â
Beverly shook her head, âLook at the time. I should get up too.â
As she spoke, she looked at Melody again and asked. âAnd she is
âA customer who came to buy rare medicinal herbs. Colin said briefly.
Since Melody said Quentin did not want everyone to know he was still alive, Colin thought there was no need to say anything else.
Beverly nodded as she said. Then I wonât disturb you guys anymore. Iâll go and make lunch for you. David, what do you
want to eat for lunch?â
âI want to eatâ¦â David stopped midâsentence. When he met Colinâs stern gaze, he shrunk his neck and said, âI can eat anything. Donât tire yourself out.â
Mr. Herbert has always doted on his wife. If I named any complicated dishes, Iâd be reprimanded by Mr. Herbert later. David thought.
Alright, Iâll make whatever I want.â As Beverly spoke, she nodded slightly at Melody and walked toward the room where the kitchen was.
Not long after, smoke rose from the kitchen chimney. It was Beverly starting a fire
Beverly had an accidental miscarriage in her early years. After that, she did not get pregnant again. However, Colin did not mind. He still doted on Beverly very much and even took better care of her than before the miscarriage.
Melody could not help but sigh in her heart. Such a harmonious and happy family had been destroyed by illness in my previous life. This time, Iâm going to do everything I can. Not only will I change my fate, but I also want to change the fate of everyone I care aboutâ
When Colin saw smoke rising from the kitchen, he was anxious to help Beverly, so he sped up and said to Melody. âMiss Fox, if there are patients with difficult illnesses another day. Iâll get David to call you over. David, exchange your contact information with Miss Foxâs. Iâll go get busy first.â
After Colin finished speaking, he was about to walk into the kitchen, looking like he loved his wife dearly.
Melody was a little envious.
Colin was the only good man she had ever seen.
Although Beverly had a short life in her previous life, the days she lived must have been blissful.
Melody couldnât get such happiness, but she hoped to see more of it
I have to save Beverly! When Melody thought of this, she hurriedly called out to Colin, âMr. Herbert!â
Colin subconsciously stopped in his tracks. He turned his head and asked, âMiss Fox, is there anything else? Before you can prove your medical skills, I canât sell Deathtenaire to you casuallyâ
âI know Melody nodded and took two steps forward. I have something else to tell you.â

Colin looked puzzled. He looked at the kitchen and finally nodded. âMiss Fox, please say it.â
Melody also looked at the kitchen and lowered her voice slightly âMr. Herbert, does your wife do a checkup at the hospital regularly!
When Colin heard this, he smiled and said. âTm a doctor myself Ill check her pulse regularly. Sheâs always been in good health except for being in a bad mood often.â
âseeâ Melody deliberately dragged out her words, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Her expression successfully attracted Colinâs attention.
Colin could not help but ask nervously. âWhatâs wrong? Miss Fox, why are you suddenly asking this?â
Melody pretended to be uncertain and said. âI accidentally took a look at your wife just now. You know traditional medicine is all about this. I only took a look, so Iâm not sure.
Since it was about his wife, Colin was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat. He urged. âMiss Fox, get to the point
