Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58 

Just when Melody thought she was going to fall, a strong hand suddenly gripped her waist, pulling her back steadily. 

Due to the inertia, Melody’s entire body fell into the person’s arms, a pleasant peppermint scent filling her nose. Before Mel 

Melody could react, the man had already taken a step back, and the peppermint fragrance began to fade. When she looked up, she found herself staring into the expressionless face of Ken 

She quickly explained, “Don’t misunderstand. It was him who suddenly blocked me, and I then spoke to him…” 

Ken responded with a meaningful tone. “Why should I misunderstand? Isn’t it Miss Fox who is misunderstanding?” The implication was clear. He did not care what kind of relationship she had with Ulric, and she did not need to explain. “I Melody’s throat tightened, and for a moment, she did not know what to say 

“Since Miss Fox has someone to send her umbrella, then I won’t bother the two of you and will go back first. I only hope that Miss Fox can treat my grandmother’s illness properly. If I find out that you and him both want to harm my grandmother… 

He curved his lips into a smile. Though he was smiling, it sent a shiver down her spine. 

After Ken finished speaking, he turned around and entered the villa. 

James happened to see Ken enter with a grim expression, and his heart could not help but thump. 

Who had made Ken angry? 

There weren’t many people who could provoke such a reaction from him. 

He subconsciously looked towards the door and saw Melody’s face gazing after Ken with a complicated expression. 

They? he thought curiously. 

James had a good impression of Melody–her personality was pleasant, and she had a serious character–but that face… 

It must be that he misunderstood. 

James shook his head, not daring to speculate too much about Ken’s thoughts, and quickly returned to his post, guarding the medicinal herbs in the room for Melody. 

Outside the door, Melody hesitated but ultimately did not go after Ken. 

What could she explain if she went after him? 

She had only been in contact with Ken a few times, and to him, she was just an insignificant doctor. As long as she did not threaten his grandmother’s safety, he did not care whether she was close or not. 

Thinking of this, Melody felt indescribably wronged. 

She obviously did not do anything. 

Just at this time, the sound of stumbling footsteps came from behind her. 

When Melody tumed her head, she met Ulric’s gaze. 

1/4 

“Miss Fox, you seem to have a good relationship with my brother?” Ulric asked with a concerned face. “Is my brother misunderstanding something? Do you need me to explain it to him?” 

“No need,” Melody said coldly, lowering her gaze. “Mr. Ulric, if you’re so worried about my affairs, you might as well worry about yourself.” 

With that, she braved the rain and ran out. 

As Melody turned her back. Ulric’s once soft gaze instantly turned cold. 

So, there really was something between them. 

At this moment, his desire to win was suddenly aroused. 

Before this, he had only wanted to pull Melody to his side to help him deal with his grandmother at home. But now, he purely wanted to prove that he was more attractive than Ken. 

Thinking of this, Ulric’s eyes lit up. He deliberately chased after Melody. 

“Miss Fox! Umbrella!” he called out, but his legs couldn’t keep up, and he fell heavily to the ground after a few steps. 

Mud splattered across his handsome face, like a famous painting stained with oil, evoking a pang of pity in anyone who saw 

him 

However, Melody did not even look back and continued running towards the gate. 

Damn it!” 

Ulric glared at Melody’s retreating figure until she vanished from sight. He cursed viciously and pounded the ground. 

He believed no one could resist his charm and sincerity 

However, Melody had completely ignored him. 

“Ah! Mr. Ulric!” 

“Mr. Ulric, are you alright? Let me help you up 

“Are y you all dead? Go call a doctor!” 

The servants, who had just returned, sprang into action upon seeing Ulric in the muddy water. 

The butler hurried to the front, carefully helping him up. 

However, as soon as the butler raised his eyes, he noticed an unfamiliar viciousness in Ulric’s expression, and he was instantly startled. 

But in the blink of an eye, that viciousness vanished, replaced by his usual warm demeanor. 

“I’m fine, thank you.” Ulric stood up with the butler’s help and thanked him politely, maintaining his composure. 

This made the butler doubt what he had seen earlier, 

Yes, it had to be a case of blurred vision. 

How could the gentlemanly, calm Ulric have shown such a vicious expression? 

It must have been a mistake! he thought 

Soon the doctor arrived, and Ulric cooperated with the examination. Apart from a minor abrasion on his palm, there were no major injuries. 

“This little injury, I’ll take care of it myself. I’ll go upstairs and take a shower. I don’t need anyone to come in and help. I’ll be fine on my own.” 

The butler was worried that Ulric might fall and hurt himself again in the bathroom, but Ulric firmly insisted, “No one needs to help. Left with no choice, the butler complied. 

As soon as he returned to his room, the softness on Ulric’s face vanished. 

He overturned the coffee table with one hand, his face contorted with viciousness. 

Even that ugly girl thinks that Ken is better than him? 

He was determined to win over that ugly girl, make her fall head over heels for him, and then cruelly discard her to marry 

someone else. 

Imagining Melody kneeling on the ground and crying in pain slightly improved his mood.
