The Unfaithful Mr. Scott ( Melanie Smith )
Chapter 762

Chapter 762 

At 5:00 pm the following day, Liana called on time. 

Melanie put on her coat and stepped outside, anticipating Liana’s arrival. 

To her surprise, Xander greeted her instead. 

She asked, “Didn’t Liana mention she’d come to pick me up?” 

Xander responded, “Grandma is talking to her.” 

The Solomon family’s residence was in the eastern part of the city, and for the last few years, they had been concentrating on developments in other regions. Only recently did they shift their focus back to Jepton. 

In any case, the Solomon family was also a wealthy family in Jepton, so they were acquainted with numerous people.

Melanie followed Xander into the Solomons‘ residence and noticed Simon and Joshua approaching 

from another direction. 

Simon had his typical enigmatic smile. “Well, what a coincidence.” 

Melanie did not bother to greet him and acted as if she had not heard him. 

Awkwardly smiling at Melanie, Joshua said, “Long time no see, Melanie.” 

Melanie nodded slightly in acknowledgment. 

Simon, observing her, scoffed. “Melanie, stop pretending. You couldn’t wait to rush over the moment you heard Eugene and Evelyn were here. You want so badly to make your presence known, huh?” 

Melanie froze. It was normal for Xander’s father to know the Scott family as he was also a 

businessman. 

Social circles worked like a web, especially in the corporate world. 

She raised her eyebrows at Simon, her voice calm. “What makes you think everyone else can’t get their eyes off Eugene just because you can’t? 

“Simon, you amaze me. You’re like the mean girl causing trouble everywhere just because you can’t get the person you like. It’s annoying.” 

Her words were slow, and her eyes locked onto Simon’s. It was only when she noticed the rising anger in his eyes that she mockingly added, “Have you forgotten your standing and Eugene’s?” 

Simon’s brows were knitted together when Melanie finished speaking. He looked like he was about to explode.

However, upon seeing someone approaching from behind Melanie, he changed his expression to a mocking smile. “Heard that? Melanie is asking about your standing.” 

The footsteps behind Melanie came to a slow stop. Melanie turned around to meet Eugene’s icy gaze. Evelyn was also looking at her meaningfully. 

“Miss Smith, that’s quite the temper you have,” Evelyn said with a meaningful look before glancing at Eugene. “I’m suddenly curious. Was she like this when she worked as a secretary in your company?” 

“Miss Shue,” Xander spoke before Melanie did. He took a step forward and subtly positioned himself to protect her. 

His gaze was fixed on Evelyn, and his tone carried a protective tone. “What do you mean by instigating conflicts between my employee and her former boss in front of me, 

Evelyn raised an eyebrow. “I’m just curious about Miss Smith’s work attitude.‘ 

Miss Shue?” 

“What does it have to do with you?” Although Xander directed the question at Evelyn, his eyelids unintentionally lifted and met Eugene’s gaze. 

Eugene’s eyes were icy, and his gaze clashed with Xander’s. 

Before he could speak, Melanie interrupted, “Didn’t you say Liana and Madam Solomon are still waiting for us? Let’s not create conflicts here. It’s not nice to quarrel in public.” 

Melanie didn’t want to escalate the situation with Eugene here. There were too many people, and quarreling would only make a scene. 

Her words snapped Xander out of his displeasure. He acknowledged with a nod and led her toward the 

garden. 

Behind them, Evelyn’s expression looked relaxed. She withdrew her gaze that had been following Melanie and turned to Eugene. “What are you holding onto? I’ve already said I just need the title of your wife. I won’t mind if you keep a mistress.”
