The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 68

It took Melanie some time to regain her voice. “Eugene, are you targeting me?” she asked in a hoarse voice.

“You think too much. You’re more suitable for this job.” Eugene casually placed the items in his hands down, his dark eyes assessing Melanie. Creases formed on his forehead as he sneered and countered, “What? Am I interfering with your relationship with Stephen?”

Melanie looked at Eugene, her chest feeling tight and stifling. She had always thought Eugene treated her differently, but apparently, it was all the same.

It felt like her throat was tied, and after a moment of silence, Melanie slowly said, “Okay, I’ll go to Prime City.”

The mockery in Eugene’s eyes intensified. Raising a brow, he looked at Melanie’s painted lips and said with a hint of a sneer, “You can leave tomorrow morning.”

Melanie, however, tried to interrupt him by calling out his name. She looked into his stern eyes and sensed an inexplicable feeling of fatigue. She had been by Eugene’s side for so long, but perhaps it had been too long, so he had become weary of her.

“I won’t renew my contract when it expires.” She heard herself say this as if she were having an out–of–body experience.

Eugene’s gaze flickered. He looked at Melanie with slightly narrowed eyes. “Are you threatening me by negotiating conditions?” He growled, his expression darkening completely.
