Chapter 586
Melody and Kenneth used to be at each other’s throats. But now she could finally sit down and shake his hands. Tiffany put down her paintbrush and looked at Kenneth, who was striding closer.
Kenneth was young and in his prime. However, because of the change in the Harper family and the early death of the family’s head, he became his family’s last hope. He looked sharp wearing his well–ironed suit.
They hadn’t met in a long time. After Ryan’s funeral, Kenneth spent most of his time in his family’s company. He needed to take over many things while his foundation was unstable, so he did not have much time to waste in school. Fortunately, with his outstanding and sharp mind, Kenneth could graduate early.
Kenneth laughed and looked at Tiffany before asking, “How have you been recently?”
Tiffany smiled. “As you can see.”
A person’s appearance could tell how they had been doing. Tiffany sat against the light outside the window. Her white school uniform made her figure look slender. Under the short skirt, her straight and slender legs were pleasing to the eye.
But what was most pleasing to the eye was her face. It was
was her face. It was perfect and captivating.
Tiffany’s clear eyes sparkled with happiness. Even her cold and sharp temperament had softened a lot. It was obvious that Richard was the only person who could make her this gentle.
Thinking of this, Kenneth suddenly looked away. He thought of the mistakes he had made before, and his heart ached. He was also afraid he would be engrossed and lose his last bit of rationality if he took another look.
Kenneth was dying to pull her into his arms. But he knew he couldn’t. He lowered his eyes and secretly swallowed this dangerous and terrifying thought.
Suddenly, Tiffany asked, “Hey, Kenneth, what’s wrong? Why did you suddenly come to school? Is there something you need from me?”
“Yes, there is.” Kenneth thought about what he had just heard in the park and was about to tell her everything. But before he could say the first word, he was stunned.

past Lovell City School when he accidentally saw Melody skip class. Ever since he linked the Harper family’s murder case to Melody, he hated her deeply. He followed her in secret to see what she was up to.
Kenneth tracked her to the park. As expected, he saw Melody and Lorenzo together. And sure enough, they knew each other.
In that case, the leaked info about the Treasure Box being in the Harper family was her doing. Melody exploited Kenneth’s soft–heartedness and indecision to stay in his place for ten days. Then, she thought of ways to investigate the Treasure Box’s secret.
Once she discovered it, she told Lorenzo about this matter, which attracted many assassins to attack Kenneth’s family. Meanwhile, Melody escaped unscathed. Behind her innocent look, Melody was such a ruthless woman.
When Kenneth saw Lorenzo at the park, he wanted to rush out and take him down However, he heard Melody’s plan to deal with Tiffany. Hence, he instantly restrained himself.
After hearing Malody’s plan, a chill ran down his spine. ‘Possessing Tiffany’s body with super–advanced technology? How could Melody come up with such a sinister idea?‘
Fortunately, Kenneth still felt à trace of guilt towards Melody. After all, he was the one who broke off the engagement first. It was reasonable for Tiffany to take her revenge. Or perhaps, she was coerced by Lorenzo. But regardless, Kenneth was willing to absolve her.
But that day, Kenneth truly witnessed how terrifying Melody was. He even questioned if Melody was even human.
Therefore, he came to School Lovell City without hesitation. He wanted to tell Tiffany about Melody’s plan in person. Even if he could not interfere, he could at least let Tiffany take precautions in advance.
However, just as he was about to say it, he hesitated again. He didn’t know why he hesitated. He fell into a dilemma.
If Melody’s plan succeeded, Tiffany’s body would be occupied and her mind would be switched to another person. Kenneth swore that he would never abandon Tiffany no matter how her appearance had changed. ‘So…
An even more terrifying thought surfaced in his mind. Kenneth hoped that Melody would succeed.
This way, he could not be considered to have snatched Tiffany away from Richard. Not only would he not incur Richard’s world–destroying anger, but he could also be with Tiffany openly. Kenneth would not offend his unpredictable, paranoid, and cold–blooded demeanor.
‘Wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds if no one knew?‘ He thought it was fine. But once his morals kicked in, Kenneth began to question himself. His human impulses and moral compass were struggling against each other.
Tiffany was puzzled. Kenneth had been distracted three times since he came in. He had just spoken when he stopped. She couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong? Are you possessed?”
Kenneth was stunned when he heard that. He quickly returned to his senses. “No.”
Kenneth despised himself. He had said he would let go. But he imagined things he shouldn’t have as he learned to let go.
Kenneth knew that if he supported Melody’s plan, he wouldn’t be any different from Melody or Lorenzo. So, he gathered his courage and sighed. He said, “I have something to tell you.”
“Tell me.”
“Today I followed Melody to a park. Sh
“What is it?”
met Lorenzo there and discussed a plan against you.”
“Lorenzo said that Felix got an item at a high price. If the experiment is successful, it can cause one’s mind to swap with another. What I’m saying is, Melody wants to occupy your body.
Tiffany, who had always been calm, was shocked by his words. ‘Is something wrong with her head? How broken is her moral values?‘ Such a sinister idea was immoral and retarded.
Tiffany sneered. “Then how long will this experiment take
“I heard in two days,” Kenneth said, “No matter what, be careful during that time. Do you need me to arrange for someone to follow you?”
“That won’t be necessary.” Not only did Tiffany reject Kenneth’s help, but she also pushed away all the bodyguards around her, including Richard who was arranged to follow her.
Since Melody had this plan, Tiffany knew she could not stop her So, she planned to let Melody do as she pleased. However, Tiffany had a plan of her own. She wanted to create an opportunity from Melody’s plan. Tiffany crossed her legs, and the faint smile on her lips seemed cold and mocking.
