The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 718

Chapter 718 

Melanie spoke slowly, recounting what Stephen had told her the night before as well as the information she had researched herself. 

Someone of Luther’s status could not be hired solely with money, so there had to be someone helping Viola. 

“Do you remember that settlement agreement? 800 grand. Who do you think it could be?” Melanie asked. 

It could not be Harvey. Just by observing his recent change in attitude toward Viola, it was clear that it was not him. If it was someone else… 

Everything that happened before–the car accident, the tracking, and the inexplicable problems in the conference hall… 

Many thoughts were swirling in Melanie’s mind. To put it simply, Burning Star Studio and LeapCo were in a cooperative relationship now. She was only telling Eugene all of this as a notification. After all, nobody knew if Eugene might do something because of Viola again. 

Eugene looked at her faintly. “What do you mean?” 

“I just wish to remind you that LeapCo and Burning Star Studio are now in this together. I hope you’ll consider Burning Star Studio’s position before making any decisions.” 

With that said, she opened the door and made to leave. 

Eugene waited in the underground parking lot for a while before leaving himself. When he returned to the hotel, Henry stared at him. “Why didn’t you go back to Jepton with Mel? I was hinting at you this entire time.” 

“I still have unfinished business,” Eugene replied casually. 

“By the time you’re done, it’ll be too late. Are you aware that that secretary of yours is ring a lawyer to sue Mel? I think this mess is all your doing. You should be the one to solve it.” 

Henry was full of anger, but Eugene calmly interrupted him, saying, “My father called me. The Hels have nearly half of LeapCo’s shares now.” With that, he turned and left. 

Henry sat there, stunned. He could not help but let out a sigh. “This is really a well–deserved retribution!” 

When Melanie and Hugh arrived in Jepton, it was lunchtime. Xander came to pick them up, accompanied by Yvonne and Stephen. 

Yvonne ran over to Melanie as soon as she saw her, hugging her tightly. “You took so long! I really missed you.”

She held onto Melanie, not letting go. She then glanced disdainfully at Hugh, who was limping beside them. “Can’t you handle yourself? I asked you to take care of Melanie, but instead, she had to take 

care of you.” 

Hugh and Yvonne always bickered whenever they met, leaving Melanie stuck in the middle. She felt a headache coming on. 

Xander rescued her and led her away. “Are you tired? Get in the car first. We’ll discuss the details on the way.” 

Melanie nodded. She only came back for this matter, so the sooner she was briefed, the better. 

Xander knew her well and specifically asked Stephen to come today. 

Knowing that they were going to discuss serious matters, Yvonne led Hugh away first. After Melanie got into the car, she asked Stephen, “Are there any other changes?” 

“Luther will arrive in Jepton tonight. They seem to want a quick resolution.” Stephen hesitated. “Do you know who’s helping Viola? I asked a friend in Oskon City, and he said Luther originally had 

another case but dropped it to focus on Viola’s.” 

Melanie still maintained her speculation that Viola could not possibly have the means of hiring Luther. She voiced her thoughts, and Stephen looked at her oddly. “Could it be Eugene?” 

“It’s not him,” Melanie refuted without much thought. 

This situation happened so suddenly. Although Melanie had heard some details way, she still needed to see Dylan herself.

Dylan looked even more haggard than before, with graying hair and more wrinkles on her face. When Melanie approached her, Dylan had to narrow her eyes for a bit before recognizing her. As soon as she did, however, tears started rolling down her cheeks incessantly. 

Her voice choked up as she called out, “Mel, Mel…” 

Dylan kept repeating Melanie’s name. Though Melanie had initially wanted to ask her something, seeing Dylan in such a state made her realize that she would not be calming down anytime soon. Thus, Melanie got up and left.
