Barclay was so 

was so scared that he immediately wet his pants. He shouted, “Uncle, save met This woman is a devil. She really will kill me? 

Sering Barclay’s light–colored pants turn dark, Benny frowned and scolded, “Uveleuf“: 

Melody raised her chin slightly. “3 

“Mr. Benny, didn’t you understand what I such? Or do you not care about your dear nephew’s life?” 

“Uncle!” Barclay shouted hoarsely 

Benny gritted his teeth and said furiously, “Step back!” 

if Barclay weren’t his only nephew and the Lawrence family only had one male descendant in this generation, he wouldn’t bother with this ineless 

waste of life! 

The group of people who had been eyeing Melody warily retreated upon Benny’s command. They stopped only when they were nearly 430 feet away from Melody. 

“Can you let him go now?” Benny shouted. 

Melody bent down and yanked Barclay up from the ground. As she moved, a foul smell hit her. 

Melody wrinkled her nose and held her breath. She kicked Barclay in the back without warning Cought off guard, Barclay fell to the ground, landing awkwardly. 

Without pausing. Melody turned and ran towards the road, Shodud no car or driver’s license, svo ninning was her only option. 

“Go after her?” Benny’s shout came from behind. 

Melody immediately picked up her pace, sprinting with all her might towards the highway 

y There were many cars on the road. If she could dag down one, she might escape this crisis. 

Melody ran swiftly, quickly distancing herself from the pursuing group 

‘Let’s see where you can run! Bitch!” Benny caught up: 

However. 

several cars ignored her frantic waves and passed by her. 

Melody prepared to run again but soon heard the sound of a motorcycle engine. They were using motorcycles to chase after her. 

She couldn’t outrun a motorcycle. Melody’s heart tightened, but all she could do was keep pushing forward. 

Benny didn’t seem to be in a hurry to catch her. He deliberately toyed with her, riding the motorcycle behind her, neither too close nor too far 

After running for a long time. Melody’s stamina began to falter. Her speed noticeably slowed down, Benny laughed loudly from behind. “Keep running! Let’s see how long you can keep this up!” 

As he spoke, the sound of the engine grew louder. Benny was accelerating. 

Melody didn’t look back, but she could feel lenny charging straight towards her. He was going to ram her. 

Melody clenched her teeth and pushed herself to run faster. But the reflection of the streetlights told her that Benny was less than a feet away. 

an MPV with its headlights flashing came speeding towards her 

Just then 

The headlights dazzled Melody. But in the next instant she realized something was wrong. This car… 

Narrowing her eyes, Melody spotted a gende slope by the roadside not far ahead. Without hesitation, she protected her head with both hands and rolled down the slope 

The nest sound she heard was a series of collisions and screeching brakes on the mad, followed by Benny’s cry of 

ny’s cry of pain. 

Melody rubbed her sore knee and looked towards the road. 

She saw Benny had been kicked back over six feet by the MPV and was on the ground, clutching his head in pain. It seemed he wasn’t in mortal danger, pulping by how loudly he was shouting. 

Melody attempted to push herself up with one hand. But before she could stand, the door of the MPV opened, and someone quickly got out 

bradlights: Melody could only see a tall figure walking towards her against the light. Though she couldnt see his are clearly, Melody was 

11:34 AM c 

“Are you okay? Can you get up?” The man approached her, extending his large hand. 

Melody lifted her gaze and met Ken’s eyes. He frowned, looking very 

y worried about her. 

In an instant, her tense nerves relaxed, yet her heart raced faster than before. 

Tim fine.” Melody swallowed and hesitated for a moment before taking Ken’s hand. His palm was cool and slightly sweaty. 

Once she was fully on her feet, Melody withdrew her hand as if she’d been shocked, then looked away, asking, “How did you know I was here?” 

“Wilmot.” Ken only mentioned Wilmot’s name, and Melody understood everything. 

Wilmot had been worried about her, so he must have informed Ken about her actions tonight. 

She had already died once. She considered herself unafraid of death, but if Ken hadn’t come, she would have been reluctant to meet her end at the hands of someone as insignificant as Benny. 

She said. “Thank you.” 

“You’re thanking me now?” Ken frowned, circling her once to confirm that she only had minor injuries on her knees. Then he asked in a low voice, “What happened? Weren’t you just supposed to buy something?” 

Melody briefly recounted the incident in the simplest terms. Then she said, “I didn’t expect Barclay to show up.” 

Ken took a deep breath, his voice commanding as he said, “From now on, you are not allowed to do anything dangerous alone.” 

“I…“. Before she could finish her sentence, several MPVs pulled up behind Ken’s, 

James, who was leading them, spotted the two and hurriedly asked, “Mr. Swanson! Miss Fox! Are you both okay?” 

We’re fi 

“We’re fine.” Ken glanced sideways, gesturing for James to check on Benny’s condition. 

James acknowledged and went over to Benny with a few others. 

Melody took a step forward, but Ken grabbed her wrist firmly.

“Did you hear what I said?” His tone was 

Melody hesitated for a moment, remembering Ken’s words about not allowing her to do anything dangerous alone. She nodded slowly. I’ll do my 

best 

“Your best?” Ken’s expression darkened further. 

Melody sighed and lowered her head. “I understand. In the future, if I se 

sense any danger, I’ll inform you or have James accompany me.” 

Ken’s expression softened slightly at this assurance. Then, Melody walked towards the road. 

“Help me…” Meanwhile, Benny reached out to James, feeling like he was about to die from the pain. 

James arrived late and didn’t know what had happened earlier. But from the scene, he could tell that this member of the Lawrence family had intended harm toward Melody. 

Though the Lawrence family had their distinctions, the Swanson family usually treated them politely. However, if conflicts arose, they would disregard the Lawrence family

James stepped directly onto Benny’s wrist, squatting down while playfully saying, “Safety comes wear a helmet when riding a bike. 

Benny screamed like a pig being slaughtered. Once the pain eased somewhat, he shouted angrily, “Bastard! Do you know who I am? How dare you step on me! Are you looking to die?” 

Before he could fish his sentence, a low, cold voice cut in. “Do you know who I am?”
