Chapter 204
Eugene wasn’t wrong. Melanie did have a bad taste in men.
Melanie lifted her eyelids and tried her best to sound calm. “You’re right. I’ve had bad taste from the
very beginning.”
Otherwise, she would not have stayed by his side for so long.
Eugene’s gaze on her deepened. He stared at Melanie for a while before snorting and getting out of the
car.
The car door was slammed, making a loud sound that snapped Melanie out of her daze.

explained, “I have many neighbors. It’s not only her.”
He added, “Yvonne and I have nothing much to do with each other. Please don’t misunderstand.”

“Why did you come to a bar if you don’t want to drink?” Eugene snapped coldly.
He was sitting in a dark corner, and Melanie could not see his expression, yet she could sense his gaze
on her as if his words were for her.
Melanie drooped her eyes and insisted, “I drove here and can’t drink.”
Yvonne said, “You can call a chauffeur. I heard my friend say the new bartender in GT is good at
making cocktails.”
Just as Melanie wanted to reject, Xander stood before her and said in a deep voice, “I want Black
Label.”
Yvonne lifted her eyebrow and seemed to have seen through everything. “I didn’t know you could be
such a gentleman.”

She placed the glass on the table with a frown. “Why are you guys so lame? You agreed to drink, but
none of you are talking?”
Then, she rose and left the private room in her high heels. “It’s boring talking to you three. I’ll go and
take a look at the bartender.”
After Yvonne left, the private room fell into a dead silence. Melanie remained silent for a while. before
saying, “I’ll excuse myself first.”
However, Eugene’s cold voice came from behind her before she could even leave the room. Why are
you in a hurry to leave? Are you afraid of something?”
Melanie froze and looked at him.
However, Eugene did not care. He looked at Xander and continued, “Are you afraid he’ll know he’s just
one of your many men?”
