The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Chapter 671 1/2

Melanie had to stay here and follow up on matters concerning Redwaves. When Yvonne learned about her having to remain in Oskon, she insisted on coming to see her. However, Reny stopped her.

Melanie had no idea when Hugh had returned. She had been so busy lately that she had almost forgotten about him. However, after Xander left, all the tasks related to Redwaves fell onto her

shoulders.

Although she had discussed most of the matters with Xander, handling them was still somewhat tricky-especially with Harvey and Matthew targeting Burning Star Studio and LeapCo.

As another conference ended, Melanie was packing up when Yvette and Eric approached her.

Yvette’s studio was almost set, and Eric had no worries at all since he was following Fuller. The two of them looked at Melanie with extra sympathy. “Your situation sucks. This is the first time I’ve seen you in such a sorry state. All the modified conditions seem tailor-made for you guys.”

Redwaves was revising the regulations over and over again. It was like they were this close to telling Burning Star Studio and LeapCo directly that they were not allowed to participate.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“There’s still a chance,” was all Melanie managed to say.

“That you're right.” Yvette nudged Eric and then looked toward the door of the conference room. “Do you think their chances are big?”

Melanie followed her gaze and saw Eugene and Viola standing at the door. Viola held a file in her hands and was earnestly discussing something with Eugene. They looked like they were talking about

work. Melanie quickly averted her gaze. Eugene and Viola were discussing work? Who would believe that?

At the door, Viola was looking up at Eugene, her expression both hesitant and conflicted. She seemed nervous as she held onto the file tightly.

“| know it’s hard for LeapCo to win the bid, but | can help you,” she said to Eugene, trying hard to sound composed.

She straightened her back as she was looking into Eugene’s eyes. “| have a way to ensure LeapCo’s success in winning the bid. I can also persuade Redwaves to modify the rules so that they're not so targeted at you.”

Eugene's gaze passed over the red mark on her neck, and his expression remained unchanged. “It’s not necessary.” Hearing his refusal, Viola’s face instantly became anxious. “But you know how difficult LeapCo’s situation is right now. Chapter 671

“Eugene, | can help you,” she whispered. If one listened carefully, one could hear the hoarseness of her voice. It was filled with determination to help.

Viola stood in front of Eugene, staring at him intently. She stubbornly waited for an answer.

“| don’t have the habit of relying on women to do business,” Eugene replied coldly before walking

away. Viola was frozen in place. Eugene... Did he... Did he know?

Fear suddenly welled up in Viola's eyes as she looked in the direction Eugene had left. At the same time, her phone started ringing. Quickly answering the call, she heard an impatient voice from the

other side.

“Why are you only answering the phone now? Your aunt wants you to help your cousin get a job. See if you can arrange something for him, but make sure the salary isn’t too low.”

Viola snapped back to reality. Suppressing her suspicions, she replied, “He didn’t even graduate from high school. Where do you expect me to find him a job?”

“How would | know? It’s your fault for not being able to keep Eugene. | told you how foolish you were. You couldn't even seize such a good opportunity. Did you think you'd always be able to latch onto such a rich man? You failed to cherish the opportunity!”
