LeapCo did not require Eugene to personally handle every project. It was enough for him to just review

the contract and documents for relatively minor collaborations like the one with Dreamcatchers after

everything was finalized.

“Dreamcatchers said they want representatives from several collaborating companies to attend the

meeting for future convenience,” Lee said.

However, everyone understood that their intention was likely to showcase their network of connections

within the department by leveraging LeapCo’s prestige.

In other words, they were using LeapCo’s reputation.

Melanie continued her routine visits to the hospital to check on her grandfather. His condition was

improving noticeably. Even though he remained in the ICU, Melanie felt more reassured than before.

After spending half an hour with her grandfather, she had to leave. Before departing, her grandfather

held her hand and said slowly, “Take good care of yourself. Don’t worry about me.

Melanie had not been doing that great recently. She pursed her lips and offered her grandfather a

reassuring smile. “I’ve been busy organizing the house recently. The house in the North district is

almost ready. Once you’re discharged, we can move back.”

Her grandfather’s eyes had lost some of their clarity, but after a moment, he nodded gently. He held

Melanie’s hand. “That’s good. Moving back to the old house is a good idea.”

It was already past two in the afternoon when Melanie left the hospital. She went to a nearby restaurant

to have a simple lunch.

Her recent schedule was quite irregular, and she would eat whenever she found time. Just as she was

about to drive back to the villa, Xander’s call came in.

It was the first time Melanie involved Xander when she went to see Eugene this morning. Now, she felt

a bit sorry for dragging him into the situation.

“Are you at the hospital?” Xander asked directly.

Melanie replied, “I’m just about to head back to the villa.”

“Reny wants to come and see your grandfather. Is that okay?” he asked.

Reny’s crisp voice rang out immediately after. “We just finished our meeting and are in the area. We

thought of visiting your grandfather. Is that alright?”

Melanie hesitated. “He’s still in the ICU. The doctors don’t encourage visitors.”

Reny replied thoughtfully, “Oh, I see. That’s fine, then. We’ll wait until he’s discharged.”

She chuckled before adding, “It’s a shame, though. I was thinking of impressing the man a bit

“We’re nearby. Should we wait for you to go back together?”

Xander and his group were in the commercial district near the hospital. It did not take Melanie long to

get there herself. When she got there, however, Reny and the rest were not around. Only Xander was

waiting for her.

Melanie’s steps faltered for a moment. “Why are you alone? Where’s Reny?”

Xander’s expression remained unchanged as he replied, “They had something to attend to.”

Melanie paused, a frown slowly forming on her face. She bit her lip and said, “I thought they were all

staying. I was planning to invite you all to dinner.”

“What’s up?” Xander inquired.

Melanie looked up at him and calmly replied, “Nothing much. I just want to express my gratitude for all

your care and understanding during this time. Also, I’m planning to move back to the North district.”

Xander hesitated, a subtle emotion flickering across his face. He quickly concealed i. There was a
