The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 543

Chapter 543

Eugene was familiar with the name Matthew Smith. Matthew was no stranger to anyone who paid attention to the affairs of Oskon City.

Within just a few years, he had been promoted from an intern at Raywind to the general manager. Recently, he had even used some extreme methods to overthrow the old guard at Raywind.

It was only a matter of time before the Raywind Group changed hands.

Most surprising of all was the fact that Matthew was only twenty-four years old.

Eugene pondered over Simon’s words. Thoughts swirled in his dark eyes.

Simon did not disturb him. He stood up and said casually, “I’ve passed on the word, so I’m leaving now. Xavier is still waiting for me.”

Suddenly, he seemed to think of something and stopped in his tracks. He raised his eyebrows and said to Eugene, “He told me that Melanie followed Xander back to meet the family.”

He chuckled. “Melanie doesn’t waste any time at all, huh?”

Eugene’s pensive eyes suddenly looked at him. His thoughts gradually calmed down and finally condensed into a dark ice. His voice was frosty and deep. “If there’s nothing else, get lost.”

Simon shrugged. He was not bothered by the coldness in Eugene’s tone. “You’re so heartless, Mr. Scott. I take it you won’t be free even if I invited you out for a drink tonight.”

“Get lost.”

Simon took his coat and walked out of the office leisurely.

The moment he walked out of the door, he bumped into Lee, who was bringing Eugene two

documents.

Lee greeted him with a slight nod before opening the door and entering the office. “Mr. Scott, this is the new proposal we received.”

Eugene’s face was expressionless. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “How’s the progress with Burning Star recently?”

Lee paused and answered truthfully, “The second stage should be completed soon. Burning Star’s representative came by a few times to ask for the next round of payments, but the company has been too busy recently. We can’t find the time to handle it.”

Later that day, Melanie got a call from Lee as she was getting ready for dinner.

Lee’s attitude was businesslike. “I’ve seen your message. We’ll pay as agreed in the contract. Set a time, and someone from LeapCo will come to inspect the project’s progress.”

Melanie said softly, “As soon as possible would be good. The new batch of materials is very time-sensitive. If we miss the best window of opportunity, the final effect might not be as good.”

Lee thought for a moment. “Can we do it tomorrow afternoon?”

Melanie agreed without hesitation. Oliver and Reny had been ranting about how sensitive these special materials were all afternoon. If even one condition was less than ideal, the consequences could be far-reaching.

After hanging up the phone, Melanie told the others what Lee had said. Reny immediately. cheered exaggeratedly, “You’re amazing as always, Melanie! LeapCo fell into line as soon as you reached out.”

Melanie’s expression did not change. “Which one of you will go with me tomorrow? I don’t know much about the materials.”

Rainy shook her head. “I can’t, I still have to record the temperature difference in the room tomorrow.”

Oliver chimed in. “I’m picking up some other materials tomorrow.”

“I’ll go with you,” Xander said quietly. He had just come down the stairs and happened to overhear Melanie’s conversation with the others.

Melanie asked, “Aren’t you going to the hospital to spend time with your sister?”

“I’ll go to LeapCo first, then the hospital.” Xander gave Melanie a long look. “She asked me to bring you along too.”
