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.”

“Instead of worrying about me, why don’t you find me a new boyfriend?” said Melanie monotonously.

It was a difficult request as Melanie had been with Eugene for so long. Those people from decent families would not want a girlfriend like her.

It was no different from dating a divorced woman.

Sighing, Stephen decided to end this topic. He asked Melanie, “Has your leg recovered?”

“Almost.”
