Novel Update
Chapter 220
Pamela felt as if she had been hit by a huge bomb. Her mind instantly went blank.
It turned out that her family was not the sponsor of every celebrity of the Swanson Universal Entertainment. On the contrary, the celebrities that she kept looking down on were actually more important than her father’s company. She was devastated by this piece of news.
Troy kept begging for mercy, but Pamela’s ears could no longer hear anything. Her eyes were lifeless as if her soul had been separated from her body.
Ken pinched his eyebrows impatiently and said indifferently, “Don’t worry, the stupid thing your daughter did has nothing to do with your company. I’m not the kind of person who takes my anger out on others.”
Troy looked down and knew that his daughter’s imprisonment was inevitable. After weighing the pros and cons, he gritted his teeth and took the initiative to say to the police, “Guys, I’m sorry for wasting your time. Take her away and help me educate her. Don’t show mercy!”
The police found Troy’s sudden change of attitude very funny, but they were professionally trained and usually wouldn’t laugh unless they couldn’t help it.
Hence, they said in all seriousness, “We’re civilized law–enforcement officers. We won’t do anything rude. We’ll take her away now.”
After saying that, they dragged Pamela, who was almost in a daze, out, attracting a lot of attention along the way.
Ken looked at Melody. “Alright, let’s go. It’s late. I’ll send you back.”
Melody nodded and did not look at Troy who was still kneeling on the ground. She called out to the dumbfounded Zara and walked out.
After leaving the hospital, Zara looked at Ken, who was walking behind, and couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Miss Fox, what’s going on? Aren’t you an assistant? Why have you become his female companion? Also, what’s going on with Zack? I clearly heard Pamela’s hand crack. Why was it fine when the doctor checked it?”
Zara’s mind was filled with questions. She only felt that Melody was an extremely mysterious person. She was certain that Melody was not an ordinary person.
Melody did not explain that she was a doctor and was familiar with all the parts and bones in a person’s body. It was very easy for her to dislocate someone’s hand and place it back together secretly.
She smiled and said, “Just take it that the heavens are helping us. As for the rest, you don’t have to know.”
Zara nodded and looked at Melody with reverence.
When they reached the entrance of the hospital, James happened to drive over.
Melody took the opportunity to say, “This place is close to my house. I can just take the bus back. Ken, help me send Miss Wentworth off. She’s a celebrity, so it’s not convenient for her to take a taxi or a bus.”
On the way out of the hospital, many people had already recognized Zara.
Zara’s face instantly turned red. Knowing that Melody was pulling the strings for her, she could not help but look at Melody gratefully.
However, Ken looked at James and said expressionlessly, “Send Miss Wentworth back. I’ll take another car with Melody.” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“Yes.” James did not dare to object and helped Zara open the car door.
Zara was stunned, but she couldn’t say anything. She waved at Melody and got into the car.
The car quickly drove away, and another car stopped in front of Melody. The driver got out and handed the car key to Ken.
Melody felt that it was a pity. Such a good opportunity to send a beauty home had been ruined by Ken again.
“Get in the car.” Ken did not say anything else. He ordered her to get in the car. His expression did not look good.
Melody thought, ‘What happened? Didn’t the matter resolve perfectly? Why did Ken seem to be angry? Could it be that he felt that I am too good at causing trouble?‘
Melody sat in the passenger seat with a belly full of confusion. Before she could figure out the reason for Ken’s change in attitude, she heard Ken’s angry voice beside her. “Being a matchmaker for your husband and another woman. Melody, you’re really something.”
Melody was stunned. She thought that she was smart but did not think that Ken would notice this at all.

Chapter 220
It turned out that he knew everything. Melody felt like she was trapped in a cocoon. She was annoyed at herself for taking the initiative to help someone matchmake.
She braced herself and clasped her hands together. “I’m sorry. I saw that Miss Wentworth was a good person, so I wanted to help her… It’s my fault.”
Ken gave her a sidelong glance and threw his phone onto Melody’s lap. “This must be your work too!” Melody quickly looked down and saw Zara’s message to Ken.
She smiled awkwardly. “I’m sorry, it won’t happen again…”
Ken glared at her and warned, “If there’s a next time, I don’t mind announcing our marriage to the public, in case you introduce other random
women to me.”
Melody was shocked and quickly said, “Please don’t! I really won’t matchmaker you again.”
Ken frowned and looked even more displeased. “Is it embarrassing for you to announce your marriage with me to the public?” His voice was cold.
Melody quickly explained, “No… It’s just that you’re handsome, elegant, and rich. I’m afraid that those women who like you will nail me to death after finding out about it.”
When Ken heard this, his expression softened a little. “I’m not as likable as you think. Don’t forget, everyone in Silverlake knows that I’m the devil who crippled Ulric’s legs.”
“But the truth will come out one day,” Melody paused and asked, “Aren’t you going to clear your name?”
He said, “It’s not necessary. It doesn’t matter.”
He didn’t want to make everyone in the world like him. He just wanted to make sure that the people he cared about knew his true colors. Otherwise, it would only attract more trouble. He didn’t care to clarify.
Melody looked at Ken’s indifferent attitude. Her heart was filled with helplessness and confusion.
She thought, ‘He so so out of this world, but I am so eager for revenge. Even if Ken knows that I am capable enough to form an alliance with him, will he still help me take down Ulric? Actually, there is nothing wrong with Ken being like this. If I got closer to him, would I implicate him?’
She wanted to take revenge, but she didn’t want to drag anyone down.
Melody was a little uncertain. When she looked at Ken again, she could not help but feel a little more distant from him.
Ken felt that something was wrong. He frowned slightly and asked, “Why? As my wife, you’re my matchmaker. Can’t I criticize you for that?” “No,” Melody shook her head and said seriously, “Don’t worry, I won’t cause you any trouble in the future.”
When Ken heard this, he felt even more depressed.
He changed the topic and asked, “How’s the situation with Zack?”
At the mention of Zack, Melody regained a little of her smile. “I’ve made some progress. He’s already agreed to give me half an hour to talk to him after he returns from his business trip. But I’m not sure if it will work out by then.”
Ken asked in surprise, “He actually agreed to talk to you?”
She asked, “Yes, what’s wrong? You don’t think I can’t succeed at all, do you?”
Ken did not answer. He only said, “Although he only gave you half an hour, there are many companies and headhunters who want to poach Zack, and no one has ever made him agree to talk to them. It’s already not bad that you can achieve this. If the results are bad, it doesn’t matter. I can make an exception and let you enter Ximber Tech.”
At the end of the day, he did not believe that she could poach Zack.
