Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 656: Melody, shouldn’t you observe mourning for three months?
Kuhn resolutely refused: "No way!"
Ralph Carter was puzzled, "Why not? Since we already know she’s fake, why can’t we kill her to avenge the King?"
Kuhn, with eyes as cold as his demeanor, stared at Ralph Carter and asked in a deep voice, "What evidence do you have to prove she’s fake?"
Without thinking, Ralph Carter replied, "The King’s body, haven’t you already found poison in it?"
Kuhn continued to ask, "Apart from that?"
Ralph Carter: "..."
Apart from that, there was indeed no other evidence.
This imposter, no matter how you looked at her, resembled the Princess exactly.
Kuhn looked at Ralph Carter and slowly said, "No one can confirm she’s an imposter. She is the true Princess Butterfly of Whitehill—the current queen."
"If we were to propose to publicly examine the body, she would have every reason to refuse."
"If we mentioned that we’ve secretly inspected the King’s body, she could accuse us of great disrespect."
"And most importantly, if we expose her identity, what about our Princess?"
"Since she is impersonating the Princess, the real Princess must be in her hands."
After saying everything, Kuhn concluded, "So right now we can’t alert the enemy, but must observe this fake princess closely from the shadows. Once we find the real Princess and rescue her, it won’t be too late to deal with the imposter."
Ralph Carter nodded in agreement, "You’re right, I was too impulsive just now."
Kuhn took out a token given to him by Muir.
Muir had initially given Kuhn this token to allow him to command the military and protect Melody Parker if necessary.
And now this token could be put to good use.
Holding the token, Kuhn stood tall and commanding, looked at Ralph Carter and ordered, "Ralph Carter, I command you from this moment on to assume the role of Whitehill’s commander and secretly control the northern troops. Once this fake princess makes any move, take action immediately!"
"Yes!" Ralph Carter accepted the order and took the token from Kuhn.
Then, Kuhn looked at Ralph Carter and continued, "At today’s dawn strategy, we must make everyone aware that there’s something strange about the King’s death, and demand to examine the body."
Ralph Carter was confused, "Didn’t you say even if we proposed it, she has every reason to refuse?"
Kuhn smiled, his face icy cold, "She has a reason to refuse, but it’s something we must do!"
Following this, Kuhn and Ralph Carter discussed in detail how to deal with the fake princess and cause her to lose her composure.
The dawn broke through the night’s veil, revealing the radiant morning glow, and Whitehill welcomed a new day.
On the ornate bed, the person exquisitely beautiful as a painting awoke from slumber.
Glancing at the empty bed beside her, Melody Parker’s eyes inevitably dimmed.
But quickly, those dimmed eyes vanished without a trace.
Replaced by a yearning for a beautiful life and a steadfast determination.
Melody Parker lifted the silk blanket and got out of bed.
She didn’t wear shoes, her bare feet gently touched the floor.
Still wearing the same white silk nightgown from last night.
She left the bedroom in this state and went directly to the study.
Upon opening the study door, Melody Parker saw the man lying on the sofa at once.
Sunlight streamed through the glass window, reflecting on the man’s clean, profound face. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
The man’s features were sharp and cold, exuding an aloof demeanor that kept strangers at bay.
His dense eyelashes were even longer and curled than a woman’s, yet didn’t diminish his strong masculine charm.
At this moment, his deep, dark eyes were tightly shut...
Seeing the man sleeping in his clothes on the sofa, Melody Parker’s heart uncontrollably thumped wildly.
The man’s handsome features were mesmerizing, making it impossible for Melody Parker to look away.
With infatuated, fiery eyes, she fixated on the man’s face and stepped closer slowly, step by step.
As she reached the man, Melody Parker crouched down.
Looking at the man’s face within reach, her heart raced as she leaned in to plant a kiss on his thin lips.
Closer, even closer.
With every inch of proximity, Melody Parker’s heart beat even more fiercely...
But just as Melody Parker’s lips were about to touch Adrian Davies’ lips, the man on the sofa suddenly opened his eyes.
The man’s abrupt opening of his eyes gave Melody Parker quite a start.
But she immediately laughed.
She smiled brightly at the man, teasing, "Adrian, you’re being naughty again!"
As she spoke, she pouted, "Just now you must have been pretending to sleep on purpose, right? You just wanted to see me make a fool of myself!"
Adrian Davies looked at Melody Parker, neither confirming nor denying.
Melody Parker smiled, knowingly saying, "I knew it would be like this!"
Before Adrian Davies could respond, she gazed at him warmly and asked with concern, "Adrian, I’ve rested enough now. Have you rested well?"
As she spoke, Melody Parker reached out her hand to touch Adrian Davies’ celestial-like face.
At this moment, Adrian Davies sat up.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he avoided Melody Parker’s touch.
Melody Parker’s expression stiffened, her extended hand awkwardly hanging, unsure whether to retract it or continue her unfinished gesture.
At this time, Adrian Davies held Melody Parker’s hand.
His gaze appeared gentle as he looked at her, and he replied in a rather soothing voice, answering the question she raised, "Melody, I dealt with matters all night and didn’t get much rest."
Following that, he quickly asked, "What’s wrong? Is there anything up?"
Melody Parker shook her head, "No."
She didn’t hide her affection for Adrian Davies, looked warmly at him, and spoke considerately, "Adrian, since you didn’t get much rest last night, you should go and rest now."
After she spoke, she mentioned her plans, "I’m going to the main hall now and will be back later."
"Alright." Adrian Davies stood up.
He looked at Melody Parker and instructed, "Melody, there’s no need to rush back. You are now the Queen of Whitehill, and you should prioritize handling things here."
After saying this, Adrian Davies turned and walked away.
Staying even a second longer with this fake Melody, he couldn’t stand the disgust and revulsion.
If it weren’t to ensure Melody’s safety and find her as quickly as possible, he would have bound this woman and subjected her to severe interrogation long ago.
