The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Melanie did manage to get much sleep that entire night. She kept having the feeling that someone was knocking on her door. She drifted in and out of sleep fearfully.

This caused her to look quite terrible the next day when she left the room.

Melanie bumped into Lee in the hotel lobby, and Lee was shocked to see her looking this way. “Are you feeling alright, Melanie? Why are you so pale?”

Footsteps were heard behind them the moment he asked this question. Eugene’s distant tone spoke up, “Have you made the appointment with Mr. Walsh?”

Lee quickly turned back to look at Eugene. “Everything has been arranged.” Eugene replied, “Let’s go.”

Lee turned back to look at Melanie. After that, he reminded Eugene in a low voice, “Melanie’s here too. The conference hall and Mr. Walsh’s company are in the same direction.”

“Are you going to be responsible for any delay?” Eugene did not look back as he strode right past Melanie.

Lee smiled in embarrassment at Melanie, “Our meeting today is really important. Mr. Scott negotiated this for a long time before Mr. Walsh finally agreed to meet up.”

Melanie looked at Eugene’s tall figure, and her eyelashes fluttered downward slightly. She did not say anything in the end.

She took a taxi to the conference hall as usual. She wondered if she was being sensitive after being given a huge scare last night, but she kept having the feeling that a car was tailing her.

Yvette arrived about the same time Melanie arrived at the conference hall. She looked at Melanie's face and said with slight exaggeration, “Wow, did you go clubbing last night? Why do you look so

terrible?”

Melanie lowered her voice to ask Yvette, “Did you see anyone following me when | came?” Yvette was taken aback. “Who's following you? | didn’t see anyone. You were alone. “What's going on?” Yvette’s curiosity did not cease as she walked in with Melanie.

They did not expect to see Viola again in the conference hall.

Yvette scoffed. “What is she doing here again?”

She curled her lips. “Redwaves is just a tendering committee. Why does she keep acting like she’s the client? Is she here to supervise something?”

Melanie looked in the direction Yvette was staring at and saw Viola. She noticed the red marks on Chapter 638

Viola’s neck, and Melanie’s eyes dimmed slightly as she turned away.

the chance.

To be honest, the way Viola was looking at Melanie made her uncomfortable.

Even though Melanie did not think that Viola would do anything to her, it was still better to be safe than sorry. That was why she made sure to keep herself surrounded by people the entire day.

Howard called her on the phone later that afternoon.

Melanie had no idea how he had gotten her contact. The moment she picked up the call, Howard asked, “Where are you right now?”

She was in a corner of the conference hall, and she picked up the call inside.

Howard did not hear her reply for quite a while and could not help asking again, “What's your relationship with the man you were with? Is he really the father of your child?”

Melanie was already feeling quite exhausted. When she heard Howard’s meaningless questioning, she burst out saying, “I’ve told you before that whatever happens to me is none of your business. Stop

contacting me.

Howard treated her answer as admittance and raised his voice. “You're a good daughter, Mel! That’s Mr. Scott from LeapCo. Sigh, | was wrong before with how | treated you. Why don’t you ask him out? I’ll buy a meal for both of you as an apology and welcome you to Oskon City at the same time.

“We're a family. We should let bygones be bygones. Let’s not talk about the past after this meal. When you come to Oskon City again next time... No, wait. Just come home with me tonight after dinner.

“I've made all the arrangements for you. | promise you'll have a nice time.”

Howard made all the decisions himself while Melanie just listened with a stoic expression.
