The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 153

Melanie stayed in her room until it was nighttime before leaving. She had no appetite, so she had a few bites of her food before returning to her room.

Dylan never looked for her after that. Moreover, Melanie could not be bothered about her.

Only after she bathed did she notice that Joshua, who had never contacted her, had texted her.

He asked when Melanie was going to return to Jepton.

Melanie replied: [Why?]

[My birthday is this weekend, and I want to invite you to my party.]

Joshua replied to her within seconds.

Melanie was not close to him. She had just recently interacted with him back in LeapCo during the meeting.

Feeling blue, Melanie was not in the mood to go. She wanted to reject the invite.

Just as she was about to text Joshua, he sent her another message.

[I’m just asking as we’re kind of friends. It’ll be fun. Moreover, Stephen said you’re interested in art exhibitions. I happen to have a few quality paintings. So, I thought of inviting you to appreciate them.]
