Chapter 294
Melanie was taken aback. Xander glanced at her wrist and said calmly, “You should rest that sprain if
you want it to get better.”
Melanie pulled her hand away uncomfortably. Xander had noticed her injured hand when she had first
come over.
She lowered her lashes. Xander was the only one who had noticed she was hurt.
Xander wanted to help Melanie drive, so he handed his car keys to Oliver. Reny leaned over and
looked at Melanie. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
Melanie paused. “Is something wrong?”
“Nothing. I just wanted to ask if you have a grudge against Mr. Emerson.” She scratched her head. “I’ve
never seen you be so actively hostile to someone before.”
Melanie’s expression became more distant. “Quentin used to be at LeapCo, too.”
Reny blinked and was about to speak when Oliver called her away. They walked far away before

“I was just curious…‘
Melanie knew that she had been quite harsh to Quentin, and Quentin’s words left a lot to the
imagination.
She had been waiting for Xander to ask, but he did not say anything until they reached Dylan’s
hotel.
“What is it?” Xander asked as the car came to a stop. He turned suddenly and looked at
Melanie. “You keep staring at me. Is it something on my face?”
Xander suddenly leaned closer to Melanie, leaving her flustered. She moved back
imperceptibly. “No, it’s not that.”
“Then what’s on your mind?” Xander pressed.
“Aren’t you curious about me and Quentin?” Quentin’s words in the conference room today were so
pointed that even Reny was intrigued.
Xander raised his eyebrows slightly. “What’s there to be curious about? He doesn’t look like a good
guy.”
Melanie had not expected Xander to say that. “How can you tell?”
Xander did not say anything. He looked outside and said in a low voice, “I’m going to buy something.”
With that, he drove off.
The Jepton rain seemed to be back with a vengeance, determined to make up for lost time.
Melanie sat in the car for a while before getting out of the car and going to the hotel. She dragged
Dylan out of the room, her expression stormy. “If you don’t go back to Hearth City now, I won’t give you
a single cent.”

If Dylan could pester her, then Melanie could threaten her in return.
As expected, Dylan immediately cowed at the threat and looked at Melanie timidly.
Xander had already returned from his shopping trip. When he saw Dylan, he did not say anything. He
just handed a box to Melanie, “I just bought some analgesic ointment. You can use this first.”
Because of the rain, Melanie had no choice but to buy Dylan the next rail ticket to Hearth City, She
even bought an extra ticket and went past the turnstiles herself so she could personally see Dylan
boarding the train,
Xander was waiting for Melanie outside when she came out of the station.
Seeing the exhaustion on her face, he said softly, “Have you had lunch?”
He knew Melanie had rushed there from the hospital. She probably did not have the time.
He thought for a moment and said, “I’ll take you somewhere to eat. I think you’ll like it there,” No sooner
had he said that than Melanie’s phone beeped with a text message notification.
