Melody Strikes Back by Myra Walker

Chapter 83 

At the site time, after Melody entered the abandoned garage in the backyard, the Instler immediately snatched her phone and focked the garage door 

There were no windows in the garage, and as soon as the door was closed, it fell into a pitch–black darkness where one couldn’t see their hand in front of their face 

Hey! Turn on the light” Melody hanged on the door forcefully, making thuds. 

But the only response she got was the butler’s cold voice. “Miss Melody, there’s no need to waste your energy. You’re in there to reflect, not to enjoy yourself. You should reflect on what you’ve done wrong!” 

Melody clenched her teeth and said coldly. I don’t know whose orders you’re following, not even turning on the light for me. But don’t regret it!” 

The butler sneered at the door. “Miss Melody, times have changed, and it’s you who should regret it 

With that, the sound of footsteps faded away 

Melody knew the butler had left. 

She wasn’t in a hurry, felt her way to a sheet of cardboard, and sat down in a meditation posture. 

Her master often meditated like this, saying it could eliminate distractions, and she imitated him by sitting in meditation. 

Russell locking her up was something she had anticipated and was part of her plan 

She just didn’t know how Maria was doing. Being locked here, she had no idea what was happening outside. 

Maria had defended her to this extent, and she was already overwhelmed with gratitude. She didn’t need Maria to do any more for her. 

The only thing she could do for Maria now w was to not cause any more trouble and cooperate with them to be locked up here, so that Yolands wouldn’t have any more bad intentions and scheme against Maria as well. 

Melody took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly. 

She used to think that her master’s frequent meditation was useless, but she didn’t expect that meditation really worked. 

Her emotions quickly calmed down, and only her cheek could still feel the pain brought by Russell’s slap, while her heart was calm and cold. 

At the moment of her rebirth, she was eager to get Russell’s paternal love in this life, but now, this desire had been completely erased. 

No matter how many times she was reborn, Russell would always favor Mabel. 

After Melody realized this, the last trace of reluctance in her heart was gone. 

Instead, she curled her lips, very curious about the expression on Russell’s face when he personally took her out of here. 

That expression must be wonderful, right? 

On the other side, Russell urgently called the family doctor to check on Maria’s condition.

Chapter 83 

It was not that he was unwilling to take Mara to the hospital, but Maria, like Margaret, was resistant to modern medicine. They were from the older generation and had more faith in traditional medicine. 

This family doctor was skilled in both traditional and modern medicine. 

At that time. Russell was reluctant to let the family doctor go, and it just so happened that several families in the same community wanted to hire a shared family doctor, so this doctor served multiple households, 

The family doctor arrived quickly, and by then Marta had already woken up from her faint, but her mental state was still not very good. Her first question was, “Where is Melody?” 

Russell felt a surge of frustration. 

“At a time like this, you’re still concerned about that girl… I’ve left her to reflect on her actions in her room.” 

Russell didn’t mention that he had locked Melody in a dark room to avoid Maria feeling sorry for Melody and asking him to bring her out. 

Maria opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, the remained silent. 

Reflecting on her actions in her room was better than being scolded or even beaten by Russell and Yolanda outside. 

And in this matter, Melody was indeed wrong. 

She should not have 

ve been so reckless in n her youth and taken on the mess s with the Swanson family. 

But then again, was she herself free of selfish motives in this matter? 

Maria sighed repeatedly, her spirit even more diminished. 

Russell was anxiously waiting nearby, and only after the family doctor finished the examination did he hurriedly ask, “How is my mother?” 

The family doctor shook his head and gave a look to Russell, indicating that they should talk outside. 

However, Maria caught the exchange of glances between the doctor and Russell and said, “At my age, there’s nothing I can’t hear, Tell me directly in front of me 

Maria was insistent, and Russell had no choice but to let the family doctor speak directly 

The family doctor thought about his choice of words before speaking. “Your fainting spell just now was due to a sudden surge of anger causing high blood pressure. But the situation has improved a lot now. I’ll prescribe some antihypertensive medication for you, and you’ll be able to get up soon.” 

Maria frowned. “I want to hear the truth.” 

The family doctor hesitated for a moment, then said, “What I said earlier is indeed the truth, but the fact is, your fainting spell itself wasn’t a major issue. The problem is, you’re older and have too many health problems. During this examination, compared to the last one, your health has deteriorated even more. There are signs of organ failure… 

Hearing this, Maria, even though she had mentally prepared herself, was still stunned for a long time before she could speak. “How long do I have left to live?” 

The family doctor hesitated before speaking. “At most, no more than half a year 

Yolanda happened to enter the room just at that moment and heard these words, a slight smile forming at the corners of her mouth 

In fact, before she had administered the poison, Maria’s health was still quite good. Now, with Maria only having half a year

to live, Yolanda fel tharher difficult days were finally coming to an end, and she couldn’t help but feel pleased. 

However, Yolanda quickly and adeptly concealed her inner glee, showing concern as she asked the family doctor, “Doctor, are you sure you haven’t made a mistake? Why don’t you take Mrs. Maria pulse again?” 

“I am not mistaken. The pulse indicates that 

“Enough” Russell interrupted the family doctor, frowning as he said, “Co and prepare the medicine” 

“Yes” The family doctor nodded, realizing he had said too much, and quickly left the room to avoid getting involved in any potential trouble. 

“Mom Russell held Maria’s hand and said, “Don’t listen to the doctor’s nonsense. They just like to scare people. Moreover, this doctor’s medical skills are quite ordinary. I will find you a better doctor in a few days, prescribe you the best medicine, and you will soon be able to travel around and relax as you did a few years ago.” 

Maria closed her eyes and did not respond to this Instead, she said with some fatigue, I want to rest for a while. Please leave.” 

Russell wanted to say something but stopped. Yolanda, noticing this, took Russell’s hand and said, “Mrs. Maria is tired. Let her rest. Don’t disturb her.” 

Russell then did not continue to speak and left the small courtyard where Margaret lived with Yolanda. 

As soon as they were out, Yolanda couldn’t wait to remind Russell. “Russell, you must understand the seriousness of the situation. Once Margaret passes away, our family will definitely be held responsible, and then we will be completely finished! It would be better to follow Mrs. Maria’s previous suggestion and let them bear all the responsibility… 

Russell’s face darkened as he said, “Stop talking. I know what’s important and what’s urgent.” 

was also selfish. 

Russell was filial, but he was 

He cared about himself more than he cared about Maria. 

If it was really necessary, he would push Maria and Melody out, but ideally, he would only push Melody.
