The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 269

Melanie paid no heed to the smug tone in Viola’s words and continued searching for Howard. However, with so many people at the gathering, she was unable to locate him even after scanning the room.

Seeing that Melanie was ignoring her, Viola said nothing more and was about to leave when Melanie suddenly asked her, “Where’s Eugene?”

The smile on Viola’s face faded as she replied, “Melanie, if you have something to discuss with him, I can pass him the message. It’s not convenient for him to meet you right now.”

Staring at her, Melanie asked, “Has Dr. Hel arrived?”

A look of confusion flashed across Viola’s face, but she quickly composed herself. She feigned calmness as she asked Melanie, “Why are you asking about that?”

Melanie did not want to waste more words with Viola. She took out her phone, intending to call Eugene directly to ask if Howard was present. If he was, she had to see him today.
