The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 10

When Melanie arrived at Scott’s residence, dinner was about to begin.

She handed the gift she prepared to the nanny and saw that Eugene was already seated.

Eugene lowered his head and played with his mobile phone. When he heard Melanie’s voice, he simply raised his eyelids.

Cedric frowned and said in a stern voice, “Why did you come here? Eugene said you wouldn’t come.”

“I was stuck in traffic. Happy birthday, Uncle.” Melanie’s expression was flawless. She smiled slightly and sat down in the empty seat next to Eugene, who was messaging Viola.

Eugene noticed Melanie’s gaze, put his phone on the table, lowered his eyes, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “I thought you weren’t coming.”

Melanie said, “You asked me to wait for you in the underground parking lot.”

Eugene paused. “I forgot.”

He was very calm as he said, “It looked like it was going to rain, so I sent Viola home first. You have a car anyway.”

“You didn’t reply to my message.” Melanie lowered her eyelashes to conceal the emotions. swirling in her eyes.
