The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 357

Melanie turned to look at Viola, an impatient look on her face as she said, “You don’t have to concern yourself with my matters.”

“I was just worried you were in trouble. After all, I hope that everyone can enjoy themselves at my birthday party.”
