THE UNFAITHFUL MR. SCOTT NOVEL (EUGENE AND MELANIE) - Season 3 Episode 69

Melanie paid no heed to the smug tone in Viola’s words and continued searching for Howard. However,

with so many people at the gathering, she was unable to locate him even after scanning the room.

Seeing that Melanie was ignoring her, Viola said nothing more and was about to leave when Melanie

suddenly asked her, “Where’s Eugene?”

The smile on Viola’s face faded as she replied, “Melanie, if you have something to discuss with him, I

can pass him the message. It’s not convenient for him to meet you right now.”

Staring at her, Melanie asked, “Has Dr. Hel arrived?”

A look of confusion flashed across Viola’s face, but she quickly composed herself. She feigned

calmness as she asked Melanie, “Why are you asking about that?”

Melanie did not want to waste more words with Viola. She took out her phone, intending to call Eugene

directly to ask if Howard was present. If he was, she had to see him today.

However, as soon as she took out her phone, a displeased voice from behind interrupted, LeapCo’s

arrangement is quite good. Even the secretaries from the secretary’s office are serving as hostesses at

the door.”

As soon as Viola heard Stella’s voice, her expression involuntarily stiffened.

She knew that Stella did not like her, or rather, Stella did not pay any attention to her at all. She did not

want to confront Stella. She quietly stepped back, trying to make herself look docile.

Melanie remained still as she observed the middle–aged man behind Stella. She pursed her lips.

Only Stella and Howard had come over. Cedric and Eugene were not with them.

Melanie clenched her fists and took a step forward. Her voice was calm as she said, “Dr. Hel, I’m

Melanie. Dr. Wells asked me to look for you. Can we talk about my grandfather’s condition?

Howard had a deep and mellow voice, and his expression was serious. He glanced at Melanie and

asked, “Are you the family member of the patient Dr. Wells mentioned?”

Melanie nodded. “Dr. Wells said my grandfather’s condition is deteriorating, and he mentioned that

you’re a renowned neurologist. He said there’s a high chance for the surgery to succeed if you do it.”

Howard furrowed his brows. “He said that?” He shook his head. “But I regret to inform you that

regardless of whoever the doctor is, the risk for your grandfather’s surgery won’t be low.”

Melanie’s face turned pale at the man’s response. She softly said, “But you haven’t even looked into

my grandfather’s case yet.”

“Melanie, I find you quite interesting.” Stella’s sarcastic laughter interrupted their conversation before

she sneered. “I find it amusing how you manage to find all sorts of reasons to get close to my family.

“So now you suddenly remember that Howard is a doctor and are leveraging your grandfather as an

mocked Stella.

Listening to Stella’s derision, Melanie said, “Madam Scott, I don’t know where your malicious

speculations about me come from, but please respect my grandfather.”

“Respect? You think you have the right to talk about respect with me?” Stella’s face was full of disdain.

“You’re someone who made your mother kneel in public. Do you have the right to talk about respect?”

As Stella’s words turned more disrespectful, Melanie closed her eyes and then turned to Howard. “Dr.

Hel, if you’re going to Paramount Hospital tomorrow, I hope you can assess my grandfather’s condition

before coming to a conclusion. Is that possible?”

Stella’s disdainful and disgusted gaze still lingered on her, but Melanie acted oblivious to it.

She could not give up the opportunity to save her grandfather. He had raised her from childhood and

was the only family she had left.
