The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 43

Eugene had Viola now, and it seemed everything had changed.

Melanie froze upon hearing Eugene’s name but quickly hid her flustered emotions.

She wasn’t sure she was telling Stephen or comforting herself, but she said, “I don’t own him. We’re adults who just benefited from each other.”
