The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 69

1/2

Walden attempted to get close to Viola and engaged in a lively conversation with her.

“This is my first time in Prime City. Eugene said we’re here for my graduation trip. Are there any fun places here?” Viola’s tone was innocent, almost romantic. She truly sounded like someone on vacation.

Melanie glanced back and saw Eugene resting with his eyes closed.

Eugene liked the quiet and despised noise during his rest. However, Viola’s cheerful tone did not seem to bother him.

Melanie had committed Eugene’s preferences to memory back then. Even on business trips, she would try to postpone all work to ensure Eugene could rest properly no matter how busy she was.

She always prioritized him, but in the end, she still failed to compare to someone like Viola.

Melanie withdrew her gaze and kept away from Viola and Walden’s conversation. She leaned against the car window and closed her eyes to rest.

They reached the hotel, and since there was not much to do in the evening, Melanie went straight to her room. As she walked away, she could still hear Walden arranging a room for Eugene.
