Chapter 473

When Melanie returned, she heard what Eugene said and hesitated for a moment at the door before

pushing it open forcefully

Seeing that she had returned, Henry handed the menu to her again, “Mel, take a look at what you’d like

to eat.”

Melanie did not refuse and ordered two simple dishes. However, she did not have much of an appetite

to eat.

Henry, on the other hand, was in a good mood and ate quite a bit. It was only later that Melanie

stopped him from eating more as she was concerned for his digestion.

Seeing that Melanie had hardly touched her food, Henry asked worriedly, “Mel, is the food not to your

liking? It’s my fault. I ordered based on my taste.”

“It’s not that. I’ve been thinking about managing my figure recently. The food is delicious.”

Henry’s expression stiffened with displeasure. “You’re already so thin and you still want to manage your

figure? You won’t look good. Young ladies should eat more and stay healthy.”

Under his supervision, Melanie reluctantly drank half a bowl of chowder.

After finishing their meal, Henry felt sleepy and wanted to go back to rest. Reluctant to part with

Melanie, he said, “Mel, I won’t be leaving Jepton now that I’m here. If you have time, come and visit me

more. I like your personality, unlike Eugene’s personality. He just makes me

angry.

Melanie allowed him to hold her hand and whispered, “I will, Mr. Henry.”

Henry signaled to the caregiver, who approached with a bag containing the jewelry. “Miss Smith, this is

a gift from the old gentleman. He went all the way to Androst to pick it up. be very disappointed if you

refuse it.

With things reaching this point, Melanie found it difficult to insist on rejecting the gift no matter how

reluctant she was.

He’ll

She could only accept the gift hesitatingly. She started coming up with a plan to return the gift to Henry

at a later date.

Seeing that she had accepted his gift, Henry came up to them with a cane in hand.

With a serious expression, he reminded Eugene, “Eugene, you brought Mel here, so you’re responsible

for taking her back home.”

Eugene was looking at his phone and responded to the old man with a simple hum.

Henry frowned, his temper rising. “Did you not hear what I said?”

Eugene put away his phone, his expression indifferent. He was about to say something when Melanie

said, “You should go back now. It’s about to get even hotter now.”

It was obvious what Henry was trying to do. He was trying to bring Eugene and her together.

Henry left, and Melanie’s smile disappeared as she looked at Eugene. She said, “I’ll take a taxi back.”

Eugene had rolled up his shirt sleeves before they ate. Looking at the jewelry in Melanie’s hands, he

commented sarcastically, “Can’t wait to show the gift off?”

Melanie paused. “If you mind it so much, why didn’t you stop him earlier?”

“Would it have made a difference?” Eugene sneered.

Melanie did not bother to argue further. She took out her phone to get a taxi.

The mocking expression faded from Eugene’s face. His long eyelashes drooped, covering his

contemplative eyes. After a moment, he looked up again, his eyes deep and mysterious as he said with

an unreadable emotion, “That jewelry set is worth a million.”

Melanie frowned tightly, looking back at him. “What are you trying to say?” she asked angrily.

Eugene’s emotionless gaze landed on her face. In that moment of eye contact, Melanie felt as if she

had peered into the deep and cold depths of his eyes. It sent a shiver down her spine.

His lips parted as he said coldly, “Since you’re so aloof, it’s better to avoid meeting him in the future.

He’s eager to hand over the entire family to you.”

Eugene’s tone made Melanie uncomfortable. He was the one who arranged for her to meet with Henry

and now he was portraying her as someone who was coveting his family’s wealth.

Her chest rose and fell, and her gaze on the man turned colder. “Eugene, you sure are good at shifting

the blame onto others.”
