The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 256

Albert had always said he was already old and had to leave this world with dignity.

However, Melanie had just realized she could not accept it readily.

She wanted to be selfish for once.

She wanted to keep her grandfather by her side…

She was not sure there would be anyone in this world who would love her if her grandfather left her. She would not know if she could face this world alone.

Melanie stood outside the hospital for some time before finally getting a packet of cigarettes from the convenience store. She took out a cigarette and lit it with her trembling hands.

She had never smoked before and had no experience in smoking. She failed to aim the lighter at the cigarette.

She squatted outside the convenience store and stubbornly lit the cigarette. It had finally lit up yet was extinguished by a teardrop.

In the end, it finally lit up again, but only half of the cigarette was left.

The following day, Melanie received a call from Stella. Since Eugene started dating Viola, Stella seldom contacted her.
