The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 484

Melanie was worried she would be late, so she left early.

Carla told Melanie that she had to accompany someone shopping before she was able to meet up with Melanie.

Melanie arrived first, and Carla was 15 minutes late.

Melanie was unperturbed. She looked up at Carla. “Madam Franklin.”

Carla smiled. “I’m sorry to have made you wait, Miss Smith.”

She did not explain why Stella was there, and Melanie did not ask about it either. She pushed the menu to Carla, saying, “I didn’t order anything yet because I’m unsure of what you like. Do have a look at the menu.”
