The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Mela5nie Smith ) Chapter 375

Chapter 375 

It was not good for her to leapfrog, but since Viola had every intention to make things difficult for her, Melanie could only choose to go to Eugene directly. 

Yana took her upstairs and explained while pointing a finger above her head, “Those two just now look to be higher–ups. 

Melanie understood what she meant. No wonder Eugene asked her to go up so directly. It was fine 

with her, however, as it was more convenient for her. 

The conversation downstairs seemed to be taking a long time. Melanie had been waiting in the office for an hour, yet Eugene still had not come up. 

Eugene’s office was designed nicely and had excellent lighting. Melanie sat on the soft sofa and soon felt a bit drowsy. 

She had not been sleeping well these days. Now that the drowsiness was setting in, it was becoming a 

little irresistible. 

Thinking that Eugene would take some time, Melanie leaned back into the sofa and closed her eyes to 

rest. 

In a daze, she heard the sound of the door being pushed open, followed by steady footsteps. 

Then, there was a sneer. 

Eugene threw what was in his hand onto the desk and questioned in a seemingly mocking tone, think LeapCo is your home?” 

“You 

Melanie’s eyes snapped open. She subconsciously tried to get up but accidentally moved her shoulder, causing her to frown in pain. 

Leaning against the desk, Eugene looked at her expressionlessly. “You have one minute. If you’re just here to play the victim, you can leave.” 

“I want to discuss the project between Burning Star, Blue Inc, and LeapCo,” Melanie said, voice hoarse. “All three parties have confirmed before that there was no issue with the contract, but LeapCo has been reluctant to sign it.” 

“Do you think I have a lot of free time?” Eugene raised his eyelids. 

“Viola is holding up the progress and refuses to provide the contract,” Melanie continued. 

Eugene sneered, “That’s your problem.” 

Taking a deep breath, Melanie continued, “LeapCo had no objections during the negotiation, but now you’re going back on your word.” 

Eugene’s gaze turned dangerous as he stared at Melanie, his expression becoming more indifferent.

“Is it Burning Star’s way to shift the blame to others? Or have your abilities deteriorated to the point where you can only come to me to make a scene when you can’t negotiate a contract?” 

Eugene spoke harshly as he unbuttoned the top of his shirt. Then, he added seriously, “Was it because you used your charm or was it something else that helped you secure your previous projects? Or was it your looks? Or did you…‘ 

He did not finish his sentence, but Melanie understood what he meant. She paid no heed to his words, however. Instead, her gaze was fixed on his revealed arm. Her brows furrowed at the scar that was particularly prominent on his cold, pale skin. 

The color of it was deep, indicating that it had not fully healed yet. The scar was about the length of a finger, it was slanted across his beautifully contoured forearm. 

Melanie recalled when George had suddenly thrown a knife at her and how Eugene had reached out to 

block it. 

She gulped before asking in a soft voice, “The wound on your arm.” 

Eugene’s actions came to a halt as he glanced indifferently at the wound on his arm. He then casually shifted his gaze to Melanie. “Are you trying a different approach since your pity act didn’t work?” 

Melanie pressed her lips together and remained silent for a moment. “I’m sorry I dragged you into 

this,” she said finally. 

Eugene sneered. He was about to say something when suddenly Melanie’s phone rang. 

It was a call from the hospital, and Melanie’s heart skipped a beat.
