The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Chapter 195

Melanie looked at Eugene, waiting for his response.

Eugene’s eyes darkened and then, he looked expressionlessly at Melanie. “You can do whatever you want.” His tone was calm and he did not look too interested.

However, Melanie understood what he was trying to say, If she did let Viola go after the performance assessment, Eugene would never forgive her.

Melanie closed her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes and nodded. “Alright, | got it.” After she said that, she turned to leave the office.

Viola was still outside. When she did not notice any changes in Melanie’s face, she knew she would be able to get tenure. Therefore, she was not as cautious as before.

When Melanie walked past her, she stopped slightly and reminded softly, “Remember to submit your tenure application. | won’t entertain any late submissions.’

)

Viola’s face was tense. Julie had told her that her tenure application would be processed by the secretary's office.

So, she immediately nodded. “Alright, I'll submit it tomorrow.”

Melanie did not say anything more and left. She still had to go visit her grandfather in the hospital.

LeapCo was very efficient at work. When Melanie went back to the secretary’s office, most people were still working overtime.

Yana knew she had to go to the hospital in the evening, so she said, “Don’t worry. We understand your situation, so you should go.”

Melanie grunted a reply. When she was about to leave, she remembered something so she told Yana, ” Don’t work too late. You can order coffee later and I'll reimburse it.”

“Why are you so nice to us?” Yana seemed to be complaining but she had a smile on her face. It was already a little late when she left the company, so Melanie went directly to the hospital without delay.

When she arrived at the hospital, her grandfather was eating. He was in much better spirits now. When he saw Melanie, he asked, “Why didn’t you come here earlier? Have you eaten?”

“I'll eat at home later. How do you feel today?” Melanie said as she put down her bag. After that, she went to get the chart on the cabinet to see how her grandfather was doing today.

The nurse was a woman in her forties. As she was cleaning up, she said to Melanie, “Don’t worry. When the doctor came for rounds today, he said that your grandfather was recovering well. He said

Chapter 195 that if you want to, he can discharge your grandfather in two days.” 2/2

Her grandfather did look much better than before. Then, her grandfather sighed and said, “I want to leave the hospital as soon as possible. Staying in the hospital is so boring”

Melanie did not find anything wrong with him after she read the records of the past two days. So, she said, “Alright, I'll ask the doctor. If there’s no problem, I'll take you home.”

“By the way,” Grandpa paused, looked at Melanie, and said hesitantly, “Your mother called me this afternoon and said that George had left.”

When she suddenly heard Dylan and George’s names, Melanie subconsciously frowned.

“She said she won't ask you for Peachie’s medical expenses anymore. She said that there is some charity organization that thinks Peachie’s condition meets their standards and can give her free financial aid.”

“That’s good.” Melanie was silent for a moment before nodding

When she went to Hearth City, she had some expectations in her heart, but now she was already numb.

Then, she changed the subject calmly, “Are you taking your medicine on time?”

Her grandfather realized that she did not want to talk about Dylan anymore, so he stopped.

Melanie stayed in the hospital for a while, then went to the doctor to confirm whether her grandfather could be discharged before leaving.

Before she left, she told her grandfather, “You should rest more, and if Dylan wants anything, tell her to come to me.” Chapter 196
