The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Chapter 3

Melanie looked at Eugene and Viola quietly.

It turned out that Eugene skipped Heron Corporation’s party because he wanted to work overtime with Viola. Melanie calmed her emotions and proceeded to retrieve her phone as if nothing had happened.

Only then did Eugene and Viola notice her presence.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Viola immediately looked nervous. “Melanie, | will definitely get the work done today.”

“Okay.” Melanie picked up her phone from the desk. “You can certainly complete it with Mr. Scott’s help.” Melanie was right. It was easy for a big boss like Eugene to do these menial tasks.

However, Viola’s face turned a little pale.

Eugene looked up at Melanie. “Why haven't you gone over yet?”

Melanie raised her phone and said, “I forgot this, so | came back to take it.

Heron Corporation's party was held at the Jepton Hotel. The guests in attendance were all familiar faces. Someone saw Melanie coming alone and went over to ask when Eugene would be arriving.

Melanie easily came up with an excuse. “He has a meeting tonight that he can’t miss, so he will come over as soon as possible.” Everyone knew that this was just an excuse.

However, Eugene really showed up.

Halfway through the party, Eugene walked in with Viola.

He looked dapper, and she was adorable. They made a cute couple.

One of the elite women who were talking to Melanie signaled to her back and asked, “Who is that girl with Mr. Scott?” The moment Melanie saw Viola, she tightened her grip on the wine glass.

Eugene also noticed Melanie. As soon as their eyes met,

soon as their eyes met, Melanie understood what he wanted.

Melanie responded to the woman and walked toward Eugene.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?” Melanie asked casually while holding the wine glass.

“| just wanted to show her what it’s like here.” Eugene’s eyes fell on Viola, who was beside. him.

Viola immediately felt embarrassed. She had a baby face and an overly thin body.

When she looked up at someone, she always looked so innocent.

“Melanie, I've never attended such a party before, so | followed Mr. Scott here.”

Melanie nodded. Someone happened to see Eugene and came over to talk to him.

“| was just asking Ms. Smith about you, Mr. Scott. | thought you wouldn’t come.”

Eugene kept his greetings brief, and Melanie was by his side to keep the conversation flowing, so it was quite pleasant. Viola, who was next to Eugene, could not join in any conversation.

Viola quietly raised her eyes to look at Melanie and noticed how composed she was when socializing and dealing with everyone who came to say hello. Melanie was flawless.

Melanie noticed how uncomfortable Viola was and raised her wine glass to signal her. “It will come naturally to you if you socialize more in the future.”

Viola nodded. “Thank you, Melanie.”

Eugene heard their voices and looked back at Viola. “What’s wrong?”

Viola forced a smile. “It’s nothing.

Eugene said, “I can take you home if you feel uncomfortable here.

a dilemma. “Is it too much trouble? | can go back by myself.”

Melanie stood there silently and watched as Eugene left with Viola.

When Eugene left, he did not even glance at Melanie. Only Viola said goodbye to her.

The other bosses who had just spoken to Eugene came up to Melanie and asked, “Ms. Smith, who is that girl? Why does Mr. Scott look at her like she’s a treasure?”

This question was subtle.

Most people in the business world knew about Melanie and Eugene’s relationship. However, Eugene now brought another girl with him to a party. Judging from Eugene’s actions, he liked that girl.

The people around Melanie looked at her with a strange gaze. Melanie drank alcohol, so she could not drive and had to call for a driver.

It was already past midnight when she got home.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw someone sitting in the living room. Melanie kicked off her high heels and went to her bedroom without turning on the lights.” I’m very tired today.”

Eugene’s refreshing cologne was mixed with a bit of a sweet strawberry scent, which was particularly obvious in the dark and cramped space.

It was Viola’s scent..

Melanie stiffened, then stepped aside. “Did you send Ms. Shaw back?”

“Yeah.” Eugene's voice was deep without much emotion. “She still doesn’t know anything.

“That’s true.” Melanie did not change her tone. “So how long are you planning to play with

her this time? One month or three months?”

Melanie had been with Eugene since she was 18 years old. It had already been 8 years, so she knew Eugene well enough. After she finished speaking, she realized she had made a mistake.

“She's clueless, so teach her. Don’t make her feel inferior to you.” Eugene sounded helpless.

Melanie’s heart sank when she heard this.

She asked, “Eugene, do you really like her?”

“| told you. She’s very obedient.” Eugene answered without hesitation. He even added, “It’s not a bad idea to date her.”

Melanie was silent for a while before she asked calmly, “What about me?”
