Chapter 108 

On the phone, David said, “Here is the thing. You asked me to call you if my boss comes back. I just received news that my boss will be back today. You can come to get the medicine later and meet my boss.” 

“Your boss is back?” Melody was delighted. She had been waiting for the shop owner of Herbathrive for a few days. 

However, Melody immediately remembered that she did not have much money now. Even if the shop owner returned, she could not afford those rare herbs, 

If you have no hand, you can’t make a fist. Melody was silent for two seconds before saying. I don’t have enough money now. I’m afraid I can’t afford the herbs I want. How about this? Don’t mention me to your boss first. I’ll come to him when I’ve gathered the money.” 

“Alright,” David replied, “I’ll help you concoct the herbs properly, I’ll choose the best herbs. There won’t be any mistakes.” 

“Okay, thank you,” said Melody. 

“It’s my pleasure, David replied softly. 

After hanging up the phone, Melody sighed sadly. She lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling, thinking about how to get the 

money. 

The next moment, she suddenly remembered the shop Wilmot had given her. 

income i 

She immediately used her phone to log into the merchant’s backend and realized that the the past two weeks had reached over 400 thousand dollars. 

She hesitated for a moment before withdrawing all the money. 

Her account received 100 thousand dollars immediately, but this amount was still a drop in the bucket for buying medicinal herbs. She could not even buy a single medicinal herb with it 

Helpless, Melody could only turn her gaze to the thank–you gift from the Swanson family. 

If she sold all of these… it would be enough to buy one medicinal herb. 

‘Okay, let’s do it, Melody thought to herself. She closed her eyes and tried to catch up on sleep. When she woke up, she looked at the time. It was past eight in the morning. 

She wondered if Ken had woken up at this hour. 

After hesitating for a moment, Melody called Ken. 

Ken picked up the call very quickly. 

*I forgot to transfer the money to you last night. I’ll transfer it to you now,” Ken said. 

“No, no.” Melody quickly said, Tm not urging you to pay my sabiry.” 

Then what do you want to do?” Ken, who was about to go to the meeting, sounded impatient but didn’t look impatient. Instead, he gestured at his assistant, indicating he would go to the meeting room later. 

Melody did not know about Ken’s situation. She said, “Do you still have the receipt for the gifts you gave me?” 

Ken was stunned. He did not expect Melody to call him about this. 

He could not help but frown. “Is that why you called so early in the morning?”

“That’s right… I’m a little short of money now and want to return these things because I don’t need many gifts. So, can you help me ask if the receipt is still there?” said Melody. 

Ken’s expression was especially dark. He replied unhappily, “No, I don’t have it!” 

“Alright, thank… Before Melody could say the word “you“, the call ended. 

“What’s going on…” Melody was confused. He had already given me those gifts. I only want a receipt. Why was he so angry? 

So, Melody had no choice but to search for second–hand luxury goods stores on her phone. 

Although she did not even unpack these gifts, the price would not be high once she sold them to a second–hand shop. However, she was too short of money now. So, she could only do this. 

At the headquarters of the Swanson Group, Ken hung up the phone with a dark expression. 

I had personally chosen those gifts. I can’t believe Melody asked me for a receipt to sell these gifts! Good for her! She is so tacky! I must have been blind to feel that she was not annoying Ken thought angrily. 

Coincidentally, James returned from the countryside. He knocked on the office door and reported, “Mr. Ken. I’m back from Miss Fox’s place in the countryside. She… 

“I don’t want to know anything about her now. Go busy yourself with Pearly Antiques. Keep an eye on Pearly Antiques and figure out who has been managing its operations now,” said Ken. 

James went to the countryside to investigate Melody almost night and day. It was not easy for him to find Melody did not live in the farmhouse arranged by the Fox family. However, before he could tell Ken, Ken said he did not want to hear anything about Melody. 

James could not help but feel surprised, but Ken seemed in a bad mood. He did not dare to say anything and could only 

leave 

Coincidentally, the assistant entered and urged, “Mr. Swanson, the directors are all here. They’re waiting for you in the conference room. 

This assistant used to work for Ramon. She had heard that Ken had crippled his brother’s legs, so she didn’t have a good impression of Ken. 

However, Ken’s aura was too strong, so she had to hide her dissatisfaction with him. 

However, she could not understand why the chairman would let such a ruthless person manage their headquarters for the time being. 

‘Isn’t he afraid Ken will be ruthless and take over the Swanson Group? While she was confused, Ken had already put on his suit jacket and brushed past her. 

The assistant quickly came back to her senses and followed Ken. 

The directors were gossiping about Ken in low voices in the meeting room. 

“Do you think Mr. Ramon plans to hand the company over to Ken in the future? 

“Mr. Ramon has never asked anyone to take charge of the company. He suddenly asked Ken to come to the headquarters to take charge. Perhaps that’s his intention.”
