The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Hugh was not kidding. His wound needed stitches, and his ankle was sprained. He was indeed feeling uncomfortable. Moreover, sitting in a luxury car felt good...

Naturally, he did this mostly to annoy Eugene, as per Yvonne's instructions.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

No one said anything. Only Hugh looked calm as if he was requesting something

normal.

Lee noticed Eugene’s cold expression from the side and cleared his throat. “We're returning to the hotel anyway. | believe Mr. Scott wouldn't mind.”

Melanie knew she could not say anything, and it wasn’t easy to hail a taxi in the rain, especially during peak hours. She took the bag from Hugh and looked at Eugene and Lee. “I think we might have to trouble you again.”

Eugene stared at Melanie for a while before asking, “Aren’t you going to get a medical check-up?”

Hugh’s sudden push had startled Melanie, and it was raining at the time. She should check on her baby.

The rain was still pouring when they returned, and Melanie was sitting in the front passenger seat. She looked at the foggy road ina daze.

Nothing was on her mind. She was just looking. Hugh’s leg was injured, and Lee enthusiastically helped him back to his room. Eugene followed. After sending Hugh back, Melanie turned around and noticed Eugene was at her door waiting for her.

She pondered before approaching. “Hugh wounded his leg today and might have stained your car with blood. I'll pay for the car wash.”

Eugene looked at her. “Do you have to draw the line between us like this?” Melanie said, “It’s only appropriate for us to pay.”

Eugene scoffed and looked at Melanie with sarcasm oozing from his face. The emotion behind his tone was undetectable. “What's so good about Hugh that he’s got you mesmerized?”

Melanie looked at him calmly, thinking it was a redundant question.

She said, “I'll talk to Lee about the car wash. Also, I’m sorry for troubling him.”

Eugene lifted his eyebrow. “Troubling him?”

Melanie was calm, as if she had not noticed the dip in Eugene’s mood. “He’s been helping Hugh.” “Do you know who Candy’s uncle is?” Wanting to skip the topic, Eugene calmly. asked Melanie. “Who?”

“Jacob, the president of Quarte Group. He’s also Jackson's brother,” Eugene said calmly. “If I'm not mistaken, Candy should be Jackson's daughter.”

Melanie did not see that coming.

Startled, she exclaimed, “What a coincidence!”

Before meeting Jackson, Melanie had already bumped into his daughter.

Eugene said, “I wonder if you’re lucky or unlucky.

“Jackson and his ex-wife are divorced, and he only has one daughter. He cares about her a lot.” Eugene spoke word by word.

‘Melanie recalled Candy’s adorable character and said, “Even if Candy is his

daughter, it’s pointless. After all, we can only meet him when he lands at the airport.”

Eugene left after a while, and Melanie realized he had not been wearing a coat.

She stood at the door for a while before entering her room.

Arainy day was a good day to have a good sleep.
