The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 139

Dylan turned to look at Melanie after making sure that Peachie was all right.

She was taken aback to see the soup splashed on Melanie’s sleeve. She yanked a couple of tissues as she anxiously tried to wipe it off. “I’m sorry. That’s so clumsy of me.”

Melanie stopped her. “It’s fine. I’ll just change into something else later.”

Dylan looked at her and asked carefully, “Your shirt must be really expensive.”

Melanie paused for a while before asking, “Didn’t you invite me over for a meal?”

Dylan had made soup, ribs, steak, and vegetables.

She fed Peachie while saying to Melanie, “You should eat up. We don’t usually eat steak at home, but I wanted you to have something nice to eat, so I went to get it at the supermarket this morning.”

Melanie had just recovered from a fever and did not have much of an appetite.

She picked up some vegetables but found herself losing even more appetite after hearing what Dylan said.

Dylan noticed that Melanie had stopped eating and quickly put some steak and ribs on Melanie’s plate. “You should eat some more. I remember how much you loved my cooking when you were young.”
