Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 657 Ralph Carter: Open the Coffin for an Autopsy!
Just one step away, Adrian thought of another particularly serious problem.
He stopped, turned his head to look at Melody Parker, who was still standing there, and continued, "Melody, the King has just passed away. According to tradition, as his most beloved daughter, you need to mourn for three months."
After speaking, Adrian grumbled discontentedly, "I guess I won’t be eating meat for these three months."
Melody looked at the man with a face full of gloom and was about to say, "Actually, it’s alright, mourning is mourning, we can still do what needs to be done."
But before she could speak, the man’s next words followed quickly, "But don’t worry, I’ll be with you."
After saying that, he continued, "Once I have everything settled, I’ll go and fetch the treasures..."
Whatever more Adrian said, Melody was no longer in the mood to listen. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Her mind was entirely consumed with the three-month mourning period issue!
Ha, mourning?
She did not want to mourn for so long!
A fleeting glimpse of a terrifying viciousness and murderous intent flashed through Melody’s dark eyes, disappearing before anyone could catch it.
She smiled at Adrian, nodding lightly, "Sure, I’ll listen to you."
After speaking, Melody was the first to turn and leave the study, walking towards the direction of the grand hall...
Adrian watched the woman’s departing back, his cold eyes narrowed, "No matter who you are, you will pay an extremely painful price for this!"
Then, Adrian, filled with an icy murderous aura, entered the bathroom.
He pressed the soap dispenser, washing his hands over and over again, cleansing that hand which had just been in contact with the woman and became dirty.
Once the entire bottle of hand soap was used up, Adrian finally stopped washing his hands.
However, he did not leave the bathroom but instead removed his clothes and stood under the shower to bathe.
Cold water poured down from above.
Adrian closed his eyes, shielding them from the gaze that was colder and more chilling than the water.
Melody, where are you?
I’m sorry, it’s my fault for not protecting you and losing you again...
Melody entered the grand hall.
At this time, the hall was already filled with nobles and ministers.
Seeing the nobles and ministers waiting respectfully for her arrival, Melody couldn’t help but show a proud smile on her face.
With such a radiant smile, she sat down on the throne belonging to the King of Whitehill, enjoying the worship from all the nobles and ministers.
She was the King, the King of Whitehill!
Haha, in the future, the entire Whitehill would be at her disposal!
After paying their respects to Melody, the nobles and ministers raised their heads and saw the bright smile on her face.
They were puzzled and started to whisper among themselves below.
"What’s going on? The King just died, shouldn’t the princess be sad upon ascending the throne? How can she smile so happily?"
"Who knows? Maybe our Princess Butterfly, because she was once lost outside, isn’t close to the King?"
"Hmm, possible."
"But no matter how distant, it’s still her biological father who died! To smile like that just after her father’s death is really inappropriate!"
Kuhn and Ralph Carter stood silently there, saying nothing, listening to everyone discussing this fake princess.
Noticing the odd looks from everyone, Melody immediately withdrew her smile.
"Ahem!" She coughed, looked at Ralph Carter standing below, and in a cold voice inquired, "Ralph, I ordered you to capture that incompetent doctor before. Now that you’re back, that doctor should have been brought to justice, right?"
Before Ralph could respond, Melody directly wore a frosty expression and said with murderous intent, "He killed my daddy, and I must see him dead!"
Ralph chuckled coldly.
He was considering how to bring up this matter, but he didn’t expect this fake princess to walk right into the trap.
What should he say to her?
Ralph stepped forward, raised his head, looking at Melody with calm determination, and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Princess, Dr. Eureka is the world’s most authoritative heart specialist, known throughout S Country and internationally. You’re aware of this. In fact, knowing this, you personally contacted Dr. Eureka and had me bring him to Whitehill to treat the King."
Melody frowned, her cold eyes looking down at Ralph, and inquired coldly, "So what? No matter who he is, if he harmed my daddy, he must pay with his life!"
Ralph did not follow Melody’s line, continuing, "For an internationally renowned expert, he wouldn’t gamble with his reputation. Since he boldly claimed he could let the King live for six more months, he definitely could have made it happen!"
This statement immediately sparked discussions among the nobles and ministers.
"Yes, yes, an internationally renowned expert certainly wouldn’t do something thankless. If he really couldn’t treat the King, he could have just said so!"
"I’ve also heard of Dr. Eureka. Although he’s young, he’s successfully saved many patients with heart failure. He’s indeed a titan in cardiology."
Melody sneered, her dark and chilling eyes narrowing with ruthlessness, "Ralph, what do you mean? Are you questioning my words? No matter his heart expertise, if he killed..."
Ralph interrupted her coldly before Melody could finish, saying, "I’ve shown the prescription Dr. Eureka wrote for the King to the palace physicians, and there were absolutely no issues. Moreover, when the King was in a coma, it was indeed Dr. Eureka’s treatment that awakened him from the coma, and all the palace physicians witnessed this firsthand."
Having said all, Ralph looked at Melody and, with certainty and resolve, declared boldly, "Princess, the King was not killed by Dr. Eureka’s treatment, but there are other suspicious circumstances surrounding his death!"
At Ralph’s words, all the nobles and ministers in the palace were stunned.
They stood there, looking at each other in shock, too astounded to speak.
It was clear what Ralph meant: the King wasn’t killed by the doctor but by something else, implying that the King was murdered!
But who could be so bold as to dare kill their King?
Sitting on the high throne, Melody was also shocked by Ralph’s words.
What did he say?
No, impossible!
That poison was unlike ordinary poisons. Even if someone died from it, there would be no signs of bleeding from the orifices or a purple face.
But this was its limit.
If the corpse were examined post-mortem, it could still be detected.
However, Muir had already been buried, and no one checked his corpse during that time, right?
