The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 120

Dylan replied, “I’m at horne. Peachie just fell asleep.”

Melanie could hear footsteps as the woman spoke, indicating that she had likely left the room. She lowered her gaze and looked at the empty hotel room for a moment before calmly asking, “Do you have time? I’m in Hearth City and would like to meet you.”

“What?” Dylan was clearly surprised. “Why are you here in the city?”

Melanie tried to ignore the surprise and resistance in her tone. She replied indifferently, “I want to talk to you about Grandpa.”

“What’s there to talk about?” Dylan tried to evade the question. She did not seem eager to meet Melanie.

However, Melanie was unusually assertive and pressed, “Grandpa doesn’t have any more money. What are you trying to achieve by asking him for so much? Is it really for Peachie’s medical expenses, or is it because of that man?”

Dylan did not expect Melanie to be so direct. Just then, she heard Peachie crying in the background. She anxiously covered the phone while replying hastily, “I’m taking Peachie to the hospital to get medicine tomorrow. Come meet me then.”

With that, she hung up the phone. Melanie heard the beeping, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. She had heard Peachie crying and sensed the tension as well as worry in Dylan’s voice.
