The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 491

Chapter 491 

Henry’s tone was commanding, and Eugene’s gaze turned stormy. He paused and explained, ” I’m still very busy. I don’t want to waste time.” 

“Is breakfast a waste of time to you?” Henry asked with a sullen expression on his wizened face. 

Melanie washed her hands and sat down at the dining table. She lowered her head and helped Landon with the cutlery. 

She had no right to intervene between Henry and Eugene. 

Besides, it would be inappropriate for her to say anything. 

The fatigue on Eugene’s face did not seem to be fake. He fell silent for a moment before sitting down at the dining table. 

Henry’s expression softened slightly. He sat at the head of the table, while Eugene and Melanie sat facing each other on either side of him. 

Henry pushed a cup of tea toward Melanie. “Have some tea. It’s good for your body.” 

Melanie nodded. She could really sense his concern for her. 

Meanwhile, Eugene sat ignored. He did not say anything and just continued eating silently. 

They did not talk much over breakfast. Henry brought up a few topics, but both Eugene and Melanie subtly ended the conversation before it could get going. 

Last night’s rain had not stopped eve now. It had grown lighter in the middle of the night, but now it seemed to be getting heavier again. 

Eugene headed out quickly, looking anxious. 

Melanie wanted to leave too, but Henry frowned at the weather outside. “It’s still raining. Why don’t you wait for the sun to come out before leaving?” 

Melanie wanted to refuse, but then Henry sighed. 

“Mel, please don’t think that I’m annoying. I’m old, and I don’t know how many years I have left. The person I’m most worried about is Eugene. He’s stubborn and refuses to take anyone’s advice.” 

Melanie lowered her eyes and did not reply. 

She understood Henry’s motives for coming back over the past few days. He still wanted her and Eugene to get back together. 

However, he was still her respected elder, so Melanie could not reject him too heartlessly.

Henry’s lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he sighed and waved his hand. He did not bring up the topic again. 

Melanie stayed until seven in the evening, when the rain began to abate. She then bid Henry

goodbye and prepared to leave. 

Henry thought of something and stopped her. “It’s my birthday next Friday. Remember to come visit.” 

Melanie paused. Most of the extended Scott family would be attending Henry’s birthday function. 

She was reluctant to go, but she could say no to Henry’s loving gaze. Melanie nodded. 

Before she could leave the house, however, her phone rang. 

It was Eugene again. 

2/2 

Melanie paused slightly with the phone in her hand. He rarely called her since he got together with Viola. 

In order not to make Viola jealous, he even reminded Melanie to call his work phone if she really needed to reach him. 

Melanie frowned slightly and answered the call. 

She said nothing. There was no sound from Eugene’s end, either. 

Melanie thought Eugene had accidentally dialed the wrong number. She was about to hang up when Eugene said in a deep voice. “Are you still at my grandfather’s place?” 

Melanie said calmly, “I’m leaving right now.” 

She thought that Eugene had called to remind her to leave Henry’s place as soon as possible. 

However, Eugene was silent for a moment before saying, “Bring a document to LeapCo for me. 

#1 

Melanie refused. “I don’t have time.‘ 

“That document is very important. It’s in my room. Send it straight to my office once you find it.” Eugene acted as if he had not heard her refusal at all. His voice was deep and his tone allowed no arguement. 

Melanie frowned at his words. “Mr. Scott, I’m no longer your employee. I’m not obligated to run errands for you.” 

Eugene’s voice was cold. “Then get my grandfather to send it to me. This document is very important. I can’t trust outsiders to bring it.”
