Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker

Hattie even thought it would be great if Melody stayed in the countryside and never came to Silverlake This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

In that case, the Fox family would not have faced such a crisis, and Maria would not have been sicker than before. 

As Hatte spoke, she started to cry from anger. “It’s all Miss Melody’s fault.” 

“Enough” Maria interrupted Hattie unhappily. “Don’t blame Melody. She’s just a child. If it weren’t for me, she wouldn’t have been given a chance to treat Margaret’s illness. So, it’s all because of me. It has nothing to do with her. She instructed. “Don’t call Melody out for the Swanson family’s visit.” 

She said so because she wanted to protect Melody. 

Hattie felt even worse. What time is it now? The Swanson family has already come to demand an explanation. Why are you still defending Miss Melody?” 

“Hattie! Enough“” Maria’s tone was serious. 

She rarely spoke to Hattie like this. Hattie was shocked and did not dare to say anything else. 

In any case, it had already happened, and there was no turning back. 

Of course, Hattie did not want to say anything more. She did not want to tell Maria that Melody had not been reflecting in her mom for the past few days but had been locked in the garage 

When she first heard the news, she hesitated whether to tell Maria, but her emotions got the better of reason. She had been hiding it from Maria until now. 

When Maria arrived at the living room in her wheelchair, the doorbell rang 

Yolanda was so frightened that her face turned pale and her lips trembled. She even told the maids not to open the door. 

Maria sighed and instructed the butler, “Go and open the door. What will come will come. Just do as we said. Just push all the responsibility to me.” 

The butler looked at Russell hesitantly. 

Russell closed his eyes and did not look at Maria. He only said, “Co and open the door.” 

He tacitly approved of Maria’s plan. 

When Maria saw this, her heart could not help but ache. She could not help but sigh inwardly. 

Her son was good in all aspects, but she had never liked his selfish values. 

However, at this point, now that she was already so old, she thought it was worth saving the Fox family with her own life. 

Seeing this, the butler could only open the door with trembling legs. 

He was afraid that he would be implicated, too. 

As soon as the door opened, a tall man entered first 

It was Ken 

One could feel his powerful aura even without looking at his face. 

The butler’s legs almost went weak and he fell to the ground. Fortunately, he held onto the shoe cabinet at the entrance to steady himself. 

Russell paid no attention to the butler. He only saw Ramon following behind Ken. 

Mr. Ramon has even come personally! It seems that Margaret has already passed away… Russell thought worriedly 

Russell pinched his thigh hard and ined his best to remain calm. 

“Mr. Ramon, Mr. Ken, welcome “He greeted them with a hoarse voice. 

“Mr. Fox, Ramon nodded slightly. 

Just as he was about to speak. Russell hurriedly said, “Mr. Ramon, it’s all our fault. It’s all Melody’s fault. She just returned from the countryside and didn’t know the severity of the situation. She boasted that she wanted to treat Margaret. And now.. she’s caused such a big trouble. She’s muddle–headed! But don’t worry. I’ve already locked her up. I haven’t given her anything to eat for three to four days. I’ve let her reflect on herself. This can be considered an explanation for you.” 

When Ramon heard this, his face was filled with disbelief. “You you… 

He could not utter a word after saying “you” for a long time because it was too unexpected 

When Russell saw Ramon’s reaction, he thought Ramon wasn’t satisfied enough, so he hurriedly added, “If you still think it’s not enough. I’ll bring her out now and beat her up in front of you. If you still can’t vent your anger, take her away and punish her however you want. We definitely won’t blame you!” 

Ramon widened his eyes. “Russell you. You’re too… 

He searched for a long time but could not find a suitable adjective. 

As for Ken, he even felt that there was something wrong with his ears. 

Maria was the first to react. She stood up p with both hands on the wheelchair and asked, “How many days did you say you’ve made Melody hungry?” 

Russell frowned and looked at Maria. “Mom, I’ll be frank with you since things have come to this! I didn’t lock her in the room for the past few days. Instead, I locked her in Wilona’s mortuary, However, she brought this on herself. She’s already an adult. When an adult makes a mistake, they have to pay the price. This is the price she deserves!” 

“You you… How could you do this? She’s your biological daughter! Maria said sternly, but because of her poor health, she started to cough violently after cursing. 

Russell ignored Maria. At this moment, he couldn’t be bothered with her either. He turned around and said to Ramon, “Mr. Ramon, you’ve seen our family’s sincerity. Please don’t implicate our entire family because of Melody!” 

Yolanda finally regained a trace of calmness from her extreme panic. She stepped forward and bowed to Ramon… 

“Mr. Ramon, it’s all Melody’s fault. It was Melody who caused Mrs. Margaret to die. It has nothing to do with us! Please be lenient and let the rest of our family off!” As soon as Yolanda finished speaking, someone suddenly entered the room. 

Yolanda and Russell subconsciously looked out. They thought it was Astrid. However, they didn’t expect it to be Margaret. 

Before she entered, Margaret felt that this dress was too colorful Therefore, she returned to the car and changed into plain clothes with her private maid, 

When she heard this at the door, she stopped and widened her eyes in disbelief. 

Yolanda and Russell were more shocked than her. Yolanda was stunned for two seconds. Then, she suddenly screamed and hugged Russell’s leg. “Oh! Ghost! A ghost!” 

She thought Margaret had become a ghost after her death and was here to settle scores with them! 

Margaret’s expression darkened and she looked gloomy 

After a long time, she squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth. “Who… Who are you calling a ghost 

“Mom Ramon hurriedly went forward to support Margaret. He glared at Yolanda with a dark expression and scolded angrily. “What nonsense are you talking about? My mother is fine. Who are you calling a ghost?” 

Ramon’s angry rebuke snapped Yolanda and Russell back to their senses synchronously, but they looked even more shocked 

than before. 

What’s going on? The two of them looked at each other, their minds filled with countless question marks. Wasn’t it because Margaret was dead because of Melody’s treatment that the Swanson family came to demand an explanation? Why did Ramon say that Margaret wasn’t a ghost?” 

Russell, who was highly educated, quickly realized that Margaret was not a ghost. She was not dead. 

Not only was she not dead, but she was also standing here and coming to their house nimbly. 

But what is going on? Russell was confused.
