Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 652 The Death of Muir…

Melody Parker said no more and continued to walk out of the palace.

After leaving the palace, she stopped at the gate.

Soon, two guards escorted a palace maid out.

Melody looked at the two guards and quietly instructed, "This maid poisoned me while I was making soup for my father. Take her to M Country. Make sure she’s alive and find out who the mastermind is behind this!"

After finishing, she whispered once more, "Wait for my word!"

"Yes, Princess!" The two guards responded respectfully, escorted the maid away, and quickly vanished...

Melody stood outside the palace for a while, and since Adrian’s people hadn’t arrived, she turned back into the palace, heading straight to Muir’s quarters...

Three days ago, Adrian Davies arrived in Europe with Tyler Dormer.

Upon reaching Europe, Adrian went straight to the Davies Group headquarters.

At this time, outside the headquarters of the Davies Group, a crowd of people holding banners gathered, along with media reporters who had rushed there from various magazines...

The luxury car carrying Adrian appeared outside the Davies Group and was immediately surrounded by a swarm of reporters.

The car door opened, and Adrian, dressed in all black, exuding exceptional dignity, stepped out.

As soon as Adrian emerged, a reporter promptly thrust a microphone in front of him, "Director Davies, what is your take on the Davies Group employee’s suicide by jumping incident?"

Adrian said nothing, his cold gaze swept over that reporter.

The reporter quickly fell silent, but soon resumed questioning, "Director Davies, there are rumors that the work intensity and stress at the Davies Group are too high, and bullying exists within the company, leading to Mr. Foster jumping to his death from the thirteenth floor. Do you believe this is true?"

As the reporter posed questions, the deceased’s family began to cry and surround Adrian.

They glared at Adrian with red eyes, crying out loudly, "My son was so young, a master’s graduate from a prestigious university! Yet he was destroyed by the high-intensity work and the bullying from the executives at the Davies Group!"

The family wailed as they closed in on Adrian, "Give us back our son’s life, give us back our son’s life!..."

Adrian wore a pure white tailored shirt, over which was a black woolen coat, and below, razor-sharp black trousers.

His features were deep and his profile hard and commanding.

Even just standing there silently, he exuded the cold authority and severity of one in power.

His dark, icy eyes looked at the distressed families, and in a not loud but intensely authoritative cold voice, he said, "I will certainly find out the truth about the incident at the Davies Group and give an explanation to the deceased. If anyone deliberately stirs up trouble, I don’t mind sending them to stay in the police station for some time."

Because of Adrian’s words, none of the weeping families dared to hinder him, and they even stopped moving closer to him.

However, their actions ceased, but their cries did not stop, and instead, they used Adrian’s words to make things difficult, "What does Director Davies mean? Using power to suppress us?..."

Adrian’s gaze turned icy as he looked at the family member who spoke, "If anything happens to an employee of the Davies Group, we naturally take responsibility. But if you’re seeking to cause trouble..."

He didn’t continue with the rest, but the deterrence was undiminished.

Then, Adrian looked at Tyler Dormer and coldly instructed, "See which ones are the parents of the deceased and bring them to the conference room to discuss compensation for the deceased."

After speaking, Adrian turned and walked into the Davies Group.

The reason Adrian came to Europe this time was specifically to address the matter of an employee from the Davies Group headquarters who had jumped from the thirteenth floor to his death.

On the day of the deceased’s death, the family began causing trouble around the Davies Group headquarters, and reporters camped out to live broadcast it.

Adrian’s arrival quelled the troublesome families.

He resolved the compensation issue with the family of the deceased in just one day and repaired some of the Davies Group’s public image through media reporters.

However, despite the investigation, they never figured out why the deceased had jumped, and the deceased exhibited no abnormal behavior before his death.

Before his death, the deceased had been a diligent business manager, meticulous in his work, and had even recently received a bonus, which he joyously used to treat his department colleagues to a meal.

This suicide was simply a mystery, as if the deceased had unknowingly jumped that day.

Yet it was immediately misreported and due to its prolonged fermentation, led to a steep drop in Davies Group’s stock, and unrest and anxiety among employees internally...

The various grave consequences were not something that could be easily resolved in one or two days.

...

On the night of Adrian’s arrival in Europe, he called Melody Parker, "Dear, I’ll be joining you in Whitehill very soon, is everything alright over there?"

Melody was aware of the Davies Group employee’s suicide incident.

Without Adrian’s explanation, she could guess the severe consequences it entailed.

Not wanting Adrian to be distracted, Melody chuckled lightly and replied, "It’s fine, Adrian. Everything is fine here for now. Take care of your matters there before coming over."

"Alright!" Adrian agreed and then softly said, "Okay, don’t worry. You can trust your man’s abilities. It won’t be long before I handle everything here and join you."

Whitehill.

Muir’s health was deteriorating day by day, each day worse than the last.

Yet Muir didn’t care about these things.

Because he had already explained everything he needed to to Melody Parker; even if his life were to slip away at any time, he wouldn’t mind.

Moreover, he even found it gratifying.

Because his destined Una Sutcliffe was gone, every day was torture, and death was a relief for him.

Previously, not having found Una Sutcliffe, not finding Melody Parker, and bearing the burden of Whitehill’s people, Muir endured the torment of living on.

But it doesn’t matter now. He’s found Melody, and no longer has to worry about the people of Whitehill, so why fear death?

Muir relished the final days spent with Melody Parker.

His daughter was very dutiful and would make soup for him every day.

To honor Melody’s filial piety, even when he had no appetite, Muir would drink every drop of the soup she brought him...

This day, as Muir was drinking the soup Melody served, he suddenly found himself struggling to breathe. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

The next moment, his grip relaxed, and with a crash, the bowl fell to the ground.
