Chapter 316

Melanie pursed her lips and asked softly, “Is Dr. Hel with you?”

“Yes.”

“Where are you guys now? I wish to speak with him,” Melanie said tactfully, her tone polite. ” It’s about my grandfather. I wish to express my gratitude to him face–to–face. I also want to ask him about my grandfather’s post–operative care.”

Eugene fell silent for a moment at her words before answering, “He has a flight tonight. He’s returning to Oskon City.”

Frowning, Melanie quickly promised, “I won’t take up too much of his time.”

Eugene hung up the call and turned to look at Howard. His expression was cold, but his tone was polite as he said, “I’m sorry, Uncle.”

There was no change in Howard’s stern–looking face. He looked at Eugene contemplatively before answering, “It looks like your mother doesn’t actually understand you.”

Eugene’s expression remained unchanged. “Neither does she understand you.”

Stella was not on good terms with the Hels to begin with, and Howard had nothing to say about that.

A moment later, his deep voice sounded again. “This is the first time you came looking for me for help, Eugene.”

Eugene was silent before he replied, “Her grandfather is a good man. He taught me a lot.”

Howard said nothing but just looked at Eugene, his gaze meaningful.

When Melanie came down, Eugene was waiting for her beside his Maybach.

Melanie lowered her gaze, collected her thoughts, and then slowly went over to him. She stopped in front of Eugene and asked, “Where’s Dr. Hel?”
