THE UNFAITHFUL MR. SCOTT NOVEL (EUGENE AND MELANIE) - Season 4 Episode 93

Melanie’s eyelashes lifted slightly. “I have nothing to do with them anymore. Do whatever you

want.”

Eugene sized her up with his deep eyes. There seemed to be some kind of emotion brewing in them.

He took back the USB before nodding. “Okay.”

Melanie nodded. “Anything else?”

She did not particularly like LeapCo or Eugene right now.

Eugene paused. Then, he raised his eyebrows and said coldly, “I told you before that if you want to

stand at the top, you have to harden your heart to everyone.”

His eyes were dark, suppressing emotions Melanie could not understand. “But you never took my

advice to heart.”

Melanie looked puzzled for a moment. She thought she heard Eugene sigh.

It sounded almost like a fleeting feeling of helplessness.

No, she must have misheard him. Melanie pursed her lips and walked out of the office.

Melanie returned to the villa for the second time that day. When she got back, Xander and the others were preparing a barbecue.

Reny greeted her with a bottle of Coke. “You’re back just in time. I was going to call you and ask when

you’d be back.”

Melanie felt as if she were suffering from motion sickness. Her head was spinning. “You guys can go

ahead without me,” she said in a small voice.

With that, she went upstairs. Reny watched her go, hesitant.

A deep and charismatic voice came from beside her. “Let her rest.”

Reny turned to look at Xander. When she saw that there was no expression on his face, she could not

help but remind him softly, “Boss, I can tell that Melanie’s been going through a rough time recently. Try

to show her some concern when you have the time.”

After saying that, she added, “Don’t wait until she ends up with someone else. Then you’ll really regret

it.”

Xander looked up at her, pondered for a moment, and stood up silently.

Melanie slept in a daze. She felt like she was in a dream.

Eugene’s voice kept ringing in her ears. “I told you before that if you want to stand at the top, you have

to harden your heart to everyone.”

Melanie remembered Eugene’s words very clearly. She could even remember when he had said

them.

At the time, his relationship with his family was beginning to improve, ever so slightly.

Eugene had to go home for Stella’s birthday, and Melanie could not accompany him because she

suddenly had to work overtime at the company. She could only pick him up after her work

was done.

The Scott family villa was far away. There were many trees in the area for beautifying purposes, but as

a result, the entire road was very dark.

Eugene knew that Melanie could not see well at night and had never allowed her to drive to the family

villa alone at that hour. However, he had drunk a lot that night and had no choice.

As long as she drove slower at night, though, there was nothing to be afraid of. However, that night, when Melanie picked up Eugene, she realized how drunk he was.

He reeked of alcohol, and his usually clear eyes were stormy. He looked a little scary.

Melanie could not see clearly to begin with, and Eugene reminded her to be careful. However, she was

so worried about Eugene that she drove straight into the grass beside the road for

some reason.

The person beside her groaned. Melanie was suddenly at a loss. She panicked and tried to reverse the

car out of the shrubs.

However, before she could step on the accelerator, someone grabbed her hand and pulled her into an

embrace that reeked of alcohol.

Before she could react, Eugene was on top of her.

With one arm around her waist and the other on the back of her head, he kissed her hard and fast, as if

he wanted nothing more than to melt Melanie into his body.

The moment their lips collided, it was as if they were fighting a war. He attacked forcefully, and she

defended helplessly.
