The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 285

Melanie’s mind was in a complete mess. She took a deep breath when she arrived at the villa’s door, and she calmed her emotions down.

She bumped into Xander the moment she got out of her car.

Xander looked tired, and he was surprised to see Melanie.

He frowned when he saw her. He asked, “How’s the situation with your grandfather?”

Melanie replied, “I’ll figure something out.”

“I’m sorry. This is my fault.” Xander sighed softly.

It had been years since he returned to the Solomons, and it had been a long time since he was in contact with any of them. This time, he had returned because of work.

He remembered that his aunt was acquainted with the Hendersons, and he called her to ask for help. Xander did not expect Charlie Henderson to reject him immediately.

“I’m already grateful that you’re willing to help,” Melanie said. “But this is my problem. I’ll figure something out on my own.”
