The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 313

Albert’s surgery was arranged on Friday morning.

Melanie got to the hospital at midnight. She could not fall asleep all night and decided to accompany her grandfather.

Howard had repeatedly reminded her not to have high hopes for the surgery. He told her Albert’s condition was terrible, and the risks this surgery posed to Albert were higher.

Melanie knew about this. However, she also knew Albert would not want to live the rest of his life bedridden. Thus, she chose to have him undergo the surgery.
