The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 724

Chapter 724
Melanie stood at the end of the relatively secluded corridor. She stared at the tiles in the corner and asked, “You don’t want Zara to help me with the lawsuit?”
It would make sense since she was going to sue Viola and Eugene still had not gotten around to defending her yet. Why would he allow LeapCo’s lawyer to help her?
With a self-deprecating smile, Melanie was about to retort when she heard Eugene casually say, “I’m just letting you know that Zara and Luther share some grudges.”
Melanie nodded. “What grudges?”
“Zara and Luther were once students from the same school. They had a very ugly dispute over a case. Word has it that Zara was the plaintiff’s lawyer and Luther was the defendant.”
“Who won?”
“The plaintiff withdrew the lawsuit.”

Melanie’s breathing hitched in her chest for a moment as Eugene calmly continued, “Zara and Luther are famous rivals in the industry.”
Melanie understood now. It was no wonder Zara did not hesitate to accept her case when she heard Luther’s name.
She lowered her eyes in thought for a moment before asking Eugene, “Did you call me specifically to tell me this?”
“I just wanted to remind you that Jackson’s flight back is on Monday. Don’t forget it,” Eugene replied leisurely.
Next to him, Lee, who had come to deliver documents, heard what he said and felt his forehead twitch. He hesitated to speak.
It was not until Eugene and Melanie were done talking about Jackson that he hesitantly asked Eugene, “Mr. Scott, aren’t we also going back to Jepton tonight? Why didn’t you teft Melanie?”
Eugene looked up, his gaze even. Pointing his finger at the document, he asked, “Have the documents at headquarters been prepared?”
Lee paused. “I’ll go now.”
Before he could turn around, he received a text message. He glanced at it, and his expression immediately turned serious. He handed his phone to Eugene.
Thanks to Dylan, Melanie’s mood had been downcast up until the afternoon. In the evening, she received a call from an unfamiliar number. The voice on the other end belonged to a middle-aged man. “Miss Smith, I’m Luther Laing. May we meet up for a chat?”
They arranged to meet nearby. When Melanie arrived at the designated location, Luther was already there. Unexpectedly, Viola was also present.
“Miss Smith,” laither greeted her upon seeing her while Viola looked at her with a smile that was not
quite genuine.
Melanie took a seat and asked Laither, “What do you want to talk about?”
