The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 428

A burning anger had been building up in Melanie’s heart ever since they encountered the thugs outside the hospital. However, Viola had insisted on cleverly hopping into the fray.

“Playing the victim is your choice, and I have no words to say about that. But if you insist on throwing false accusations my way with your pity show, don’t think I’ll just endure it.”

Viola had gotten involved in the scuffle earlier, and Melanie initially did not want to get entangled with her. However, now that the blame had been directly dumped on her head, she might become an easy target for further exploitation if she were to continue keeping silent.
