The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 131

1/2

Melanie’s lips moved, but she had no idea what to say.

Eugene looked down at her and he grunted. “Don’t overestimate yourself.”

“Eugene?” He had just said this when Viola’s voice was heard coming from behind. She had turned a corner to come over. Her gaze fell onto Melanie as she asked softly, “Melanie, why didn’t you come into the private room? We were all waiting for you.”

The questioning look in her eyes was too obvious, and Melanie pressed her lips. She tried her best to hide her emotions. “I just arrived.”

“I thought you weren’t coming.” When Viola said this, she looked at Eugene again. The questioning look remained in her eyes as she gazed at him.

Melanie knew that Viola was overthinking this again, but she was not in the mood to explain anything. All Melanie said was that she wanted to get her bag from the private room.

Before she left for the private room, Theo came over. He was holding Melanie’s bag in his hand.

He noticed Melanie looking taken aback, and he passed her bag to her. “I’m sorry. I thought you’d forgotten your bag when you left in a hurry, so I thought I’d return it to you.”

Melanie took the bag from him impassively. “Thank you.”
