Russell never expected that at this point, Melody would still stubbornly refuse to admit her mistake.
This was not only harming herself but also the entire Fox family. Even the octogenarian Maria would suffer.
At this moment, he could no longer care that Melody was the only bloodline left by his deceased wife and swung his hand fiercely toward Melodyâs face
Melody had her
er own plans, so she was not prepared to dodge this slap and simply closed her eyes. Just as she thought she might have a tooth knocked out by Russell, the expected pain did not come, and the slap did not land on her face.
âCould it be that Russell still cares and trusts me a bit? Melody hesitantly opened her eyes and saw a wel

Following that hand, she looked up in astonishment and saw a handsome man with dark eyes looking at her.
It was none other than Ken.
But how could Ken be here? He cared so much about Margaret, and now seeing Margaret coughing up blood, shouldnât he want to tear Melody into a thousand pieces?
Russell was also taken aback when Ken stopped him and asked Kenâs intentions with suspicion, âMr. Swanson?â
Ken expressionlessly shook off Russellâs hand and said, âSorry, I canât interfere with your discipline of your daughter, but now I have to take her to treat my grandmother first.â
âTreat?â Russell was even more astonished, his mouth slightly agape.
Ken didnât bother with Russell and directly turned to call Melody. âLetâs go. Hurry up!â
Melody took half a second to recover from her surprise. âOkay!â
She responded and was about to follow Ken out.
âWait a minute!â Astrid didnât expect that Ken would actually disregard Margaretâs life and death for Melody and immediately stepped orward to block the two, reminding Ken with displeasure.

You should use this time to persuade your grandmother to agree to go to the 10spital, otherwise, it might be too late!â

This trust had nothing to do with anything else, only because Melody disregarded her own life to pick the Kintame on the cliff. Due to that kind of courage and perseverance, he didnât believe she would harm Margaret
Melody couldnât help but be moved
Being trusted was a luxury for her, and Kenâs belief that she wouldnât harm Margaret was something she didnât expect. Compared to Astrid, it
