The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 244

Chapter 244 

Simon glanced at the screen and saw an unlisted phone number. He then looked away again, thinking it was a spam call. 

However, the caller did not give up, calling again and again. 

Eventually, Simon clicked his tongue and rejected the call before yelling at the others to drink another round. 

Meanwhile, Melanie heard the busy signal and paused. All she could do now was toss the phone onto the coffee table. 

She had wanted to call Eugene and ask if LeapCo had been affected. She wanted to know how the company would handle this matter. 

More and more videos were surfacing online, and the comments were positively toxic. 

Many people even began to talk about Melanie’s relationship with Eugene, claiming that she had slept her way into her current position. 

They said that she was only ever good at spreading her legs. 

The insults got to her. She could only send a message to Eugene, hoping that he would call back when he saw it. 

With Eugene’s cooperation, Melanie thought, the matter could be handled with PR as quickly as possible. 

However, he never called back. She waited until she could wait no more, turning off her phone for the night to fend off the bombardment of messages. 

Things did not improve the next morning, either. Instead of dying down, the nasty talk only heated up even further. 

Melanie had been well and truly doxxed. 

She had not slept the entire night either. She sat on the sofa and stared blankly at the window. 

She could not understand why things had turned out this way. 

She did not do anything wrong. 

She had paid for Peachie’s treatment. 

She had stayed faithful when she was dating Eugene. 

She took all of her work at LeapCo seriously. 

She had compromised with Dylan again and again. 

So why was she the bad guy now? 

When her phone started to ring again, Melanie looked at the screen sluggishly. 

It was a call from Grandpa. 

When she saw her grandfather’s name, Melanie’s eyes suddenly turned red. Tears streamed down her face. She could not even catch her breath.

Her phone continued to ring for a long time before Melanie picked up the call. However, as soon as the call connected, she heard Dr. Lawrence and Sally shouting anxiously, “Calm down, Mr. Lancaster. If you have anything to say, say it slowly,” 

Melanie knew then that Grandpa had found out about the news, 

She could not help but sniffle and call out in a choked voice, “Grandpa.” 

“Mel.” Her grandfather panted heavily, but he was still trying his best to comfort Melanie, He said in a low voice, “Mel, don’t be afraid. I’ll explain everything. Those people spreading all that nonsense are morons and ruffians!” 

He defended her as stubbornly as they slandered her, Melanie finally broke down, her tears pouring down her face. After a moment of silence, though, she still remembered that her grandfather could not afford to be too agitated. 

She tried her best to make her voice sound normal, saying, “Don’t worry, Grandpa, I’m fine. I don’t care about any of this. You don’t have to worry about me.” 

Her grandfather was probably the only person in the world who would stand on her side without hesitation. 

Melanie said, “Don’t be angry. I’ll take care of it. Really.”
