The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 736

Chapter 736 

Viola’s case would go on trial the next morning 

Melanie had to return to Jepton tonight. 

Now that things had been settled with Jackson, she thought about it and said, “I’ll continue putting together what we need for ledwaves. I won’t be in Oskon City for a few days. If you need someone with you, I can check if Oliver or someone else can come over to replace me 

Eugene asked, “Are you going back tonight?! 

“Yes, I’m taking the plane at five.” Melanie was short on time. She had to meet Zara after her two- hour flight and talk about the case before attending court. 

Eugene’s eyes were looking down, covering any emotion in them. “I’ll wait for you at the hotel lobby at four.” 

Melanie stared at him, and Eugene looked up at her. “It won’t hurt to observe Miss Henson in court.” 

It was still in the afternoon when they returned to the hotel. Melanie returned to her room to rest. When evening came, she pulled her luggage out of the room. 

Eugene and Lee were already waiting for her at the hotel door. 

It was 7:10 pm by the time their flight landed at the airport. 

Xander came to pick Melanie up at the airport, and the look in his eyes froze when he saw her walk out with Eugene. 

Eugene was not happy to see Xander either. Their gazes met midair, and they looked away quickly. 

Xander took Melanie’s luggage from her. “Come on. Stephen has already gone to see Miss Henson.” 

Melanie nodded. She did not want Zara to wait too 

o long 

She followed Xander and Jeft without even saying goodbye to Eugene. 

Lee had been silent throughout. He frowned and asked Eugene, “Do you want to see Miss Henson too, Mr. Scott?” 

Eugene was still staring at Melanie as she left. There was a dim look in his 

eye. 

He looked downward when he heard Lee’s question. “Nope. Let’s return to the old manor.”

Lee’s expression turned grim when he heard this. “Alright. Mr. Cedric has called several times. I’ve given him multiple excuses, but I think he’s beginning to suspect something.” 

Eugene grunted a reply and headed toward the exit. 

Melanie and Xander went straight to the meeting point. 

Stephen and Zara were already talking about the upcoming case. Melanie went over to sit opposite

Zara. “I’m sorry for delaying you, Miss Henson. Is there anything you’d like to ask me?” 

Even though Stephen and Zara had discussed this for quite a bit, Zara still preferred to check things. over with Melanie once more just to be careful. 

Zara shut her notebook at the end and looked at Melanie somberly. “Don’t worry, Miss Smith. I’ll do my best to get justice for my client.”

The trial would begin the next morning at 

ten. 

Melanie could not sleep the entire night. She felt anxious about it. 

Xander and Stephen had accompanied her back, and Yvonne and Reny looked even more nervous than she was. They kept making silent prayers to the sky. 

Melanie was feeling nervous as well. However, she was used to controlling her emotions and looked 

calm on the surface. 

When they entered the courtroom, they bumped right into Viola and Luther. 

Luther was in a suit, looking like a formidable lawyer. 

He stopped right in front of Melanie and gave her a small smile. “I wonder if you know how it feels to lose more than you gain.” 

Melanie looked at him. “Have you heard of karma, Mr. Laing?” 

An unhappy look flashed in Luther’s eyes. He grunted coldly and turned to leave. 

Viola looked at Melanie sarcastically as she followed behind Luther. 

“I’ll make you regret stepping on my toes, Melanie!”
