The Unfaithful Mr. Scott novel (Eugene and Melanie)

Chapter 877

Anna propped her cheek with one hand. “You used to work at LeapCo, right? I know Eugene. I recall you delivering something to me.‘

Melanie pursed her lips. “I’m not with LeapCo anymore.”

“I know,” Anna said innocently. She pointed to the documents in Melanie’s hand. ” You’re with Burning Star Studio now, right? Oh, changing jobs isn’t a big deal. It’s been a long time since I came back to the country. Now that I’ve met a familiar face, I want to have a casual talk. Don’t worry, it’s my treat.

She did not think she could get along well with Anna. After all, the key card she had delivered to Eugene back then was for his and Anna’s use.

No matter how she tried to focus on work, she could not bring herself to be warm and friendly to Anna. Besides, seeing Anna would remind her of Eugene.

Anna did not push but expressed her regret about not being able to have a casual chat. They then arranged to meet another time before exchanging contact information and parting ways.
