The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 49

Stephen looked at Melanie helplessly and explained, “I need to drive her home later.”

Others kept quipping and asking him to drink, so Melanie said, “It’s okay. You can drink. I can call someone to send you home.”

Stephen shook his head and insisted, “I promised to give you a lift.”

Melanie knew she could not convince him. She was not familiar with everyone there, so no one pressed her to have a drink.

It was boring to just drink. After a while, Simon suggested playing a game.

Melanie had just noticed Viola. Viola did not greet her and hid behind Eugene.

Simon brought a stack of poker cards over and placed it on the table. “A card game of dares. Everyone knows the rules, right?”
