THE UNFAITHFUL MR. SCOTT NOVEL (EUGENE AND MELANIE) - Season 3 Episode 76

The director, Leone, was about to leave when Eugene, who had been standing by the door, entered.

His gaze swept over Melanie, and then he turned to Howard and called out in a low voice, “Uncle.”

Howard nodded, the displeasure on his face diminishing slightly. “The charity event you mentioned

yesterday, you intend to collaborate with Paramount Hospital?”

Eugene nodded. “The process is already underway.”

Realizing what was happening, Leone asked, “So, Mr. Scott is Dr. Hel’s nephew?”

Howard’s expression was stern. “Charity check–ups are not trivial matters. It’s a substantial scale.

You’ve worked hard.”

Leone smiled and waved his hand.

Despite not expecting Eugene to suddenly appear at the hospital, Melanie could care less about him

now. When she saw that the conversation was about to be diverted, she spoke up again, Dr. Hel, can I

take up some of your time?”

Howard looked at her. Due to his perpetually stern expression, he seemed quite serious. Checking the

time, he said, “I’m sorry, the seminar starts in five minutes. I don’t think I have the time.

“And besides, instead of spending time here with me, why not spend more time with your grandfather?

He’s getting older. There’s no need to use up medical resources unnecessarily!”

Sarah’s phone call just now had soured Howard’s mood, and he could not help but vent some of his

frustration on Melanie.

Thinking of Sarah’s words, Howard became angry again and immediately made his way to the nearby

lounge.

Due to Howard’s recent outburst, the conference room was now very quiet.

Melanie stood awkwardly in place with Eugene by her side. Feeling a bit embarrassed, Leone gently

touched his forehead and asked Eugene, “Shall we go to the office to talk?”

“Sure,” Eugene replied indifferently.

The man then turned to Melanie and said with some hesitation, “Miss, could you please go back for

now? We’re about to have a meeting here.”

Doctors were gradually entering the conference room.

Melanie bit her lip and prepared to leave. She could not help but feel a bit bewildered. As she walked

past Eugene, she suddenly heard him say in a flat tone, “I warned you not to think too highly of

yourself.”

Melanie’s steps faltered, and she glanced sideways at Eugene, who had an indifferent expression.

After leaving the conference room, Melanie felt like all the strength had left her body. She turned to a

corner of a wall, took a moment to collect herself, and then called Xander on her phone.

The phone rang for a few seconds before connecting. Pinching her brows, Melanie asked, Xander, can

you still reach Dr. Hel over there?”

Melanie was not sure about her own feelings at the moment. She felt like she might have messed

things up.

There was a pause on Xander’s end before he replied, “Sorry, I’ll try to figure something else out.”

He had just received a call telling him that Howard had declined to help.

The pressure in Melanie’s heart suddenly flared. She rubbed her temples, her voice tinged with self–

blame and bewilderment, “Xander, what should I do? How did I mess up something so important?”
