Chapter 58 Congratulations, Mr. Fox!
Taylor never thought he’d meet the kids here, but he smiled and hugged them. “It’s been a while, you two.”
Stanley was surprised, but he asked calmly, “You guys know each other?”
“So, you’re his personal doctor, huh?” Melinda gave Taylor a look of disdain. “Is this your so-called dream?”
“You didn’t see the news, Master.” Taylor waved his hands quickly. Like a hurt child, he said, “It’s not what you think.”
“Master?” Stanley was shocked. And Taylor seems terrified of her. How can that be?
Melinda slurped her pasta and responded nonchalantly. I didn’t. Tell me, then. What exactly happened?”
“Mr. Fox gave me a lot of support. Money and facilities, so to speak. It eases my research,” said Taylor. “Thanks to his sponsor, I managed to come up with more than a hundred new types of drugs and help more than 70 dying patients. I’m not just his personal doctor; I’m also helping the people.
Naturally, Melinda believed him. She smiled and looked at the men. “Well, dig in. Don’t just stand there.” She spoke like she owned the place.
The kids quickly pulled their chairs back. “Breakfast time! It’s been a while since we had breakfast with Mr. Cohen.
Stanley was shocked. He couldn’t believe Melinda was Taylor’s master, but the truth was right before him. Before he sent Taylor off, he asked, “Why did you call her Master?”
“Because she is,” replied Taylor. “I don’t only do my own research. She’s the one who taught me all I knew when I first started this path. And she’s still my teacher now.”
“So, she’s a doctor?” Stanley knew she fiddled around with herbs, but he never knew she was a doctor.
Taylor patted his shoulder. Like a friend, he said, “You married someone gnovelxo.com fast updatereat, Mr. Fox.”
Stanley saw him off, but he was still in shock. Taylor was no liar, which meant Melinda had been laying low a lot. Taylor’s been famous lately. Why didn’t she try to tell everyone she was his master? She could’ve gotten famous, too. At least Mom will not think she’s a village girl anymore.
It was a workday, so he needed to go to work. However, before that, he went to the living room.
Melinda was sitting on the couch with her legs crossed on the coffee table. She was munching on some snacks and surfing the channels. At that moment, she looked like she owned the place. Even when Stanley came in, she didn’t look at him. Until he blocked her view, that was. She put her remote control down and stood up. “What is it? Are you finally interested in your lovely wife?”
He looked into her eyes and asked, “Can you treat burns?”
Melinda was about to leave, but she stopped upon hearing that question. A moment later, Stanley added, “Not me. It’s for my mother.”
“I’ll think about it.” She dusted her hands off proudly before turning around to head upstairs. Some of the crumbs she dusted off fell on Stanley’s head.
His face darkened slightly, but he couldn’t do anything about it. She’s going to come up with some terms, I bet. He brushed the crumbs away and left.
The courtyard was filled with blooming roses, and the air was filled with fragrant scents. Zack opened the car door for Stanley. The man looked at the villa before he got into his car. As the car revved up, Taylor
sent him a text.
‘Fate and love have cured you. If you’re fine with her, you shall never let her go. Here’s to eternal happiness.”
Stanley stared at the text. No teay. Why is her cooking the only one I can take? This can’t be real.
Back in the second floor’s lounge, the kids shook their heads.
“Oops, your secret is out, Mommy.”
“And Mr. Cohen’s the one who spilled it. Tee-hee.”
“Must have been surprising.”
“Why aren’t you saying anything. Mommy? What’s on your mind?”
Melinda looked calm as if she didn’t care about the fact that Taylor had told Stanley she was a doctor. “Do you still think we can lay low and live in peace?”
“Nope. Samuel laughed. The sole fact that you’re Daddy’s wife is already a big goodbye to a peaceful life. And there are other secrets, too.”
