Chapter 7
On the weekend, Eugene took Viola to the banquet. Melanie did not care much about it. When she went out in the afternoon, she met Eugene, who was also heading out. Eugene was wearing a shirt with the collar slightly open to reveal his sexy collarbone.
Coincidentally, Melanie was wearing a simple black knee-length dress. Eugene’s shirt was also black, so it looked a bit like a couple’s outfit.
Melanie paused for a moment. She greeted Eugene as if nothing was wrong. “Are you going to the banquet now?” Eugene replied briefly with a bored expression.
The elevator stopped on the first floor. Melanie left first because she had a dinner appointment with Lisa.
Melanie wanted to ask Eugene why he fired Lisa before, but she did not get a chance to.
Lisa and Melanie met at a sushi restaurant. When Lisa saw Melanie, she could not help but
complain about her grievances.
Back then, Viola had not completed her work, so Lisa reprimanded her. But in the end, Lisa was accused of bullying the intern. Melanie said, “Eugene treasures her, so it’s best not to offend her.”
Lisa did not understand. “What does Mr. Scott see in her?”
She felt sorry for Melanie. “I heard that Mr. Scott wants to train her now. Is that true?”
Everyone in LeapCo saw how much Melanie had sacrificed for Eugene.
Melanie was very hardworking. She was willing to go all out as long as it was a customer Eugene wanted to win over. Melanie would even drink until her stomach bled just to close the deal.
Melanie lowered her eyes and sipped on her tea in silence.
People in LeapCo said that Viola was the next Melanie, but Melanie did not agree with this saying. Eugene had trained Melanie since she was 18 years old. Melanie could now handle everything
on her own.
Viola was different.
Eugene pampered Viola.
He asked Melanie to teach Viola and did not hesitate to take Viola out in public, even though her knew that Viola was far from qualified.
After parting ways with Lisa, Melanie was about to go home when she received a call from Eugene. His tone was grim as he said, “Come over to Jepton Hospital.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
When Melanie arrived, Eugene’s wrist was already bandaged. Viola sat aside, looking frightened with red eyes.
Melanie kept walking and looked at Eugene’s wrist with a frown. “How did you get injured? Weren't you going to the banquet?” Eugene was sitting in the emergency room with a glum face. “My car was rear—ended. The driver who caused the accident is still here.”
“I'll take care of it.” After Melanie finished speaking, she looked at Viola, who was still sitting beside Fugene. She asked with concern, “Are you injured?”
Viola was stunned to see Melanie’s dress, which matched Eugene’s suit. Her eyes turned redder than before. She sniffed and shook her head. “I’m fine. Mr. Scott injured his wrist.”
Her eyes fell on Melanie’s dress. Her lips moved, but she stopped talking. Melanie noticed Viola’s reaction, but she did not say anything else. She went over to talk to the driver who caused the accident..
After Eugene was treated, Melanie went to the small supermarket in front of the hospital and bought two bottles of water and a pack of disinfectant wipes.
She noticed that Eugene’s lips were a little dry earlier.
Melanie walked back with the supplies, Eugene was resting his eyes, so Melanie was wondering if she should wake him up. “Melanie.” Viola nudged her elbow and whispered, “You can give those to me. | will give it to Mr. Scott when he wakes up.” Viola looked at Melanie with a forced smile. Although Viola’s voice was gentle, she could not help but stare at Melanie.
