The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 138

Melanie walked out numbly among the crowd of people exiting the hospital. After that, she stood next to the road for a long time.

It was when Dylan called her to ask where she was that Melanie snapped out of it and hailed a taxi.

The taxi driver was a chatty local. When he saw Melanie walking out looking so pale from the hospital, he could not help advising her, “Miss, there’s nothing that can’t be solved. Isn’t this life?

“The rainbow will always emerge after the storm. You’ll need to go through some hardships before you find happiness. Once you get through whatever you’re facing, things will get better.”

Melanie listened but said nothing. The driver stopped talking after saying a few more words.

Dylan’s house was not far from the hospital. It was in a dilapidated, old area. The environment was quite bad. There was a ficus tree right outside the door with lots of old and damaged items piled up underneath.

There were not many buildings in this community, and Melanie immediately spotted Dylan standing outside one of the buildings with Peachie.

Dylan called out to Melanie the moment she saw her, “Mel, over here!”

She was loud, and there were many neighbors around. They immediately looked toward Melanie with
