The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 517

Chapter 517 

Viola’s features froze slightly. “He’s busy. He has to work overtime tonight.‘ 

“He still needs to eat even if he’s busy. Oh, Viola, you wouldn’t be unwilling to let your boyfriend meet your poor relatives, would you? I’m telling you, this won’t do…” 

Trisha’s tone was somewhat dissatisfied. At the same time, Viola’s expression was sour. She hurriedly made a few excuses and went back to her room. However, her mother had followed her in. 

The displeasure on her face was for all to see as she scolded Viola softly, “Did you get into a fight with Eugene?!” 

Viola hesitated, saying, “I—” 

The woman sternly interjected, “Didn’t I tell you before not to fight with him? Why did you argue with him for no reason? Whatever the reason is, quickly makeup with him! 

“You need to bring him back here for dinner. I promised your Aunt Trisha that there would be no problem with her son becoming a secretary at LeapCo.” 

Viola’s mother kept nagging at her, causing Viola to feel increasingly annoyed. Several times, she tried to interrupt her mother, but she was glared at each time. 

When her mother finally left in the end, Viola’s expression immediately crumbled. 

How was she supposed to bring Eugene back to have dinner with them? She could not even see him now. He was determined to drive her out of LeapCo. 

Feeling extremely frustrated, Viola did not even notice that she had received several consecutive text messages on her phone, which she had thrown casually on the bed. 

When she looked at the string of phone numbers, she was even more upset. However, she had no choice but to pick up the phone and make another call. 

The news of Viola giving LeapCo’s confidential documents to Rockwater spread quickly within the social circle, causing a big commotion. 

Even Melanie had been receiving inquiries from people with whom she had previous connections with. She claimed ignorance and dodged their questions. 

However, as the situation developed, the matter became much bigger than Melanie had ever anticipated. 

When Yvonne came over one day, she brought several cakes with her, saying they were from a blind date who gave them to her. 

Her family was determined to arrange blind dates for her. Her father was a ruthless person who arranged seven to eight blind dates for her in a single day. 

Melanie was not a fan of cakes, but she comforted Yvonne, saying, “Arranged marriages in wealthy

families can be quite challenging.” 

Yvonne rolled her eyes. “Screw them! I decide my own life. 

“But speaking of arranged marriages-” Yvonne paused mid–drink and looked at Melanie with some hesitation. 

“What’s the matter?” Melanie noticed her gaze. 

After a moment of thought, Yvonne continued, “You know that LeapCo’s situation isn’t good lately, right?” 

“I’m aware. The market in Jepton is stagnant, so Eugene is shifting his focus and putting a lot of effort into Oskon. But what Viola did practically threw all of their opportunities down the drain. 

“Rockwater took advantage of the situation to suppress LeapCo, leading to a significant drop in the company’s share price,” Melanie explained. 

Yvonne added, “Because LeapCo is in a precarious situation now, Eugene’s parents are also looking for a marriage partner for him. My dad mentioned it to me the other day, but I shut him down.” 

Melanie raised a brow. “The Scott family should have no shortage of candidates for arranged marriages.” 

The Scotts were prominent figures in Jepton. LeapCo was just a small company under the family that Cedric Scott had handed over to Eugene as a learning experience.
