Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker novel Chapter 212

Chapter 212 

“Yes.” Maria nodded and said, “I was still worried that Ulric would not accept Melody. Now, it seems that I was overthinking. That kid has good taste. Melody has such a good personality and good medical skills. Whoever marries her will be honored. When I’m better, I’ll go to the Swanson family again and try to settle their marriage.” 

Hattie suddenly thought of Ulric’s legs and could not help but say, “But Mr. Swanson’s legs… I wonder if he will recover.” 

“Don’t worry. Melody will definitely think of a way. She can even pull me back from the brink of death, let alone treat Ulric’s legs.” Maria thought for a moment and urged Hattie to help her prepare the medicine. She smiled and said, “I have to recover quickly so that I can go to the Swanson family.” 

On the other side, Melody changed into a white dress, making her already slender waist look even more slender. 

The stylist kept praising, “Miss Fox, you can even be a supermodel.” 

Melody was still self–aware. She did not reply and only asked, “Is everything done?” 

“Yes.” The stylist nodded and asked hesitantly, “Are you sure you don’t need makeup?” 

Melody said, “There’s no need.” 

In her current situation, if she covered the red spots on her face with foundation and revealed her true appearance, it would cause a lot of trouble. There was no need to ruin her current plan for a moment of pride. 

In any case, she was attending a banquet that Ken was going to attend. He didn’t mind losing face, so she also didn’t mind. 

Not long after, Melody got into the van parked at the entrance. 

However, as soon as Melody got into the car, she was surprised to find that Ken was also sitting inside. 

“You’ve been waiting for me?” she asked in surprise. 

Ken did not even look up. His gaze landed on the tablet and he said emotionlessly, “Tonight’s banquet is a celebration party for Swanson Universal Entertainment. Many partners have been invited. Zack will also attend as his company’s representative.” 

Upon hearing Zack’s name, Melody’s eyelids twitched. She understood why Ken wanted to bring her along. This was a chance for her to poach 

Zack. 

She was worried that with her current status, she would not be able to enter Zack’s company. She did not expect Ken to help her. 

“Thank you…” Melody thanked him emotionally. 

Only then did Ken open his eyes and look at her. He saw Melody in a white haute couture dress like a humble white rose. 

The dress was not a famous luxury item. It was designed by an independent designer. Not many people knew about this brand, but the price was not cheaper than those big brands. 

It was undeniable that this brand of clothes was fresh and elegant. It was very suitable for Melody. 

Ken looked away and said expressionlessly, “I’m helping myself.” 

Melody choked. The gratitude in her heart dissipated after hearing that. 

The celebration banquet was held at the River Hotel under the Swanson Group. There was a long red carpet at the entrance. The media on both sides raised cameras that were like long guns and cannons and took photos of the people who entered. 

However, the van bypassed the main entrance and went straight into the underground garage. The two of them arrived at the banquet from the backstage. 

There were no reporters in the venue, but it was still very lively. The people who came were big shots and celebrities. Everyone was very dazzling. 

Even so, as soon as Ken entered the arena, he immediately became the most eye–catching one. In an instant, he was surrounded by a group of business men, and Melody was forcefully squeezed out. 

A person said, “Mr. Swanson, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for you.” 

Another person said, “I hope that Mr. Swanson will continue to work with us in the next quarter.”

Someone else said, “Congratulations, Mr. Swanson. The artists under us won many awards again this year. They will definitely win more awards at the end of the year…” 

Everyone’s faces were filled with flattery. 

Ken talked to them one by one, but Melody clearly saw the indifference in his eyes. 

She was about to slip away to look for Zack when Ken suddenly said, “Let me introduce. This is my partner, Melody Fox.” 

Melody suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at Ken in disbelief. 

Ken’s hand reached out to her. Everyone’s eyes fell on her. 

Their gaze instantly turned from curiosity to shock, and then from shock to horror. 

They seemed to wonder if this was a joke. 

Melody felt complicated feelings. 

She thought, ‘Ken did not want to bother with these people, so he deliberately turned everyone’s attention to me, right? I knew it! How can Ken be so kind as to spend 200 thousand dollars to specifically bring me to look for Zack?” 

She took a deep breath and smiled appropriately. After nodding at everyone, she introduced herself. “Hello, everyone. I’m Mr. Swanson’s assistant.” 

As soon as she said this, the suspicious gazes immediately dissipated. When they looked at her again, their gazes were much gentler. There were even people who took the initiative to hand over their business cards enthusiastically. 

Melody took them one by one. When she turned around, Ken had already disappeared.
