Chapter 13

Melanie lowered her eyes. “I just don’t want her to overthink it.”

Eugene picked up the pen, signed the document, and threw the document to Melanie without any emotion. “Okay. You can explain it to her yourself.”

Melanie hummed and was about to leave with the document when Eugene stopped her. “From now on, get Viola to come to me.”

Melanie paused in her footsteps. Eugene looked at her coldly and continued, “You don’t need to come here anymore.‘

Somehow, Eugene managed to coax Viola. When Melanie saw them the next day, Viola was smiling again.

Viola held Eugene’s arm and greeted Melanie without a suspicious gaze, unlike yesterday.

Viola wore her emotions on her sleeve when chatting with her colleagues. They talked about relationships and teased each other.

Thus, what happened between Viola and Eugene spread throughout the company. Even though Melanie was sitting there, the others still joked about her.

Eugene probably assured Viola yesterday, so Viola was not as evasive as before and talked to Melanie.

“Melanie, are you dating someone?”

Melanie stopped clicking the mouse and looked up at her. “Did Eugene tell you?”

“He didn’t.” Viola frowned slightly and laughed. “He said it was your private matter. I just guessed it.”

Viola looked straight at Melanie because the hickey was still visible on Melanie’s neck.

Melanie lowered her eyes and looked at Viola calmly.

Viola was clearly nervous and doubtful, as if she was afraid that she would not hear the answer she wanted.

Melanie looked at her. Before Viola’s smile faded, Melanie said calmly, “Yeah, I have a boyfriend.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the door of the president’s office opened, and Eugene walked out. He looked at Melanie indifferently.

However, he averted his gaze a second later.

Viola smiled brightly, walked over, and held Eugene’s arm affectionately.

“Eugene, I guessed it right! Melanie is dating someone.”

Eugene lowered his head and hummed. He looked at Melanie and casually asked, “Since when?”

Melanie’s body stiffened, but she answered, “A few days ago.”

Viola took Eugene’s hand and asked in a low voice, “Can Melanie bring her boyfriend to the
