The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 542

Viciousness flashed across Xavier’s narrowed eyes. He turned his gaze to Xander and said arrogantly, “Back then, you boldly cut ties with the family, but now, you’re back. Did you come crawling back because you couldn’t survive on your own outside?”

His open provocation made Melanie uncomfortable. She looked up at Xander, who spoke in an even colder voice.

“Says the boy who hasn’t been acknowledged by the family even now.”

Xavier turned red in the face. He glared at Xander and gritted his teeth. “Xander, don’t think you’re all that. Sooner or later, the family fortune will be mine!”

After Yury escorted Xavier out, Liana started to feel a little tired, so Melanie and Xander quickly excused themselves.

Melanie did not ask Xander a word about Xavier even after they left the hospital.

Xander was also silent. He did not seem keen to explain.

On the way back, Henry Scott called Melanie to ask her out for dinner. Melanie declined because she was working.
