Chapter 15

Eugene’s eyes fell on Melanie, who said nonchalantly, “My car broke down on the road”

Melanie picked up the glass of wine that Eugene pushed to Stephen and said, “I can drink on his behalf if you want someone to drink with.

“Drink on his behalf?” Eugene spoke through clenched teeth. He looked at them playfully and said casually, “Ms. Smith, what’s your relationship with Mr. York that you can drink in his stead?”

Melanie frowned. The displeasure in Eugene’s tone was obvious.

“We’re just friends.”
