Chapter 481
Henry was looking at Viola when he said this, and it was obvious who he was referring to.
Viola bit her lip. She looked upset, but she lowered her head to hide the unhappiness in her
eyes.
Eugene’s voice was deep and calm. “She’s not feeling well. She almost passed out in the office.”
Henry looked impatient. “That’s her business. Doesn’t she have any family or friends? Or even money
to take a taxi?!”
He was adamant as he said, “Landon, give Miss Shaw a hundred bucks and get her to take a taxi
home!”
Viola quivered from this almost humiliating treatment. Her hands fell on each side of her, and she
clenched them hard.
Eugene frowned. The look in his dark eyes deepened.
He was silent for a while before looking at Melanie. “Do you need me to see you home?”
It sounded like a question, but Melanie knew Eugene well enough to know that he would not ask her
this question if he wanted to take her home.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe wanted her to reject his offer by asking her the question.
Melanie did not want to see Viola’s pale face any longer. She handed the medicine she took from the
dispensary over to Landon. “Mr. Henry’s medication is all here. The instructions are written on it. Keep
it well, Landon.”
She looked at the furious Henry and paused before saying, “I need to meet a client, Mr. Henry. I won’t
be able to accompany you. Rest well and remember what the doctor told you.”
Henry frowned. He wanted Melanie to stay, but he choked back on his words when he saw the cold
look on her face.
He kept quiet until Melanie left.
After that, he glared furiously at Eugene. “Look at what you’ve done, you good–for–nothing!”
Eugene took the medicine from Landon and asked, “Where’s Grandpa’s medical report?”
Viola was completely ignored, and she did not dare say a word. She was afraid of being insulted by
Henry again, but at the same time, she was not happy about being ignored.
She gently tugged on Eugene’s clothes and said in a small voice, “I’m going in for a CT scan, Eugene.
You should accompany Mr. Henry,”
Eugene’s expression was cold. He nodded and said nothing.
Viola’s eyes were filled with grievance, but she hid it when she met Henry’s sharp look.
She sniffled. “I’ll take a taxi home by myself. You should see Mr. Henry home.”
Eugene replied, “Alright.”
Viola choked back a sob. “You don’t need to worry about me. I’m fine now.”

Eugene did not say anything to her.
Even though Viola did not really want to leave, she could only go after Eugene gave her a nonchalant
reply.
It was only after Viola had left that Henry berated Eugene, “How blind are you to think that woman is
actually someone worth being with when she’s an embarrassment?”
Eugene replied in a low voice, “When she passed out in the office, our partners in Oskon City and the
non–profit organization were at LeapCo.”
Henry’s expression turned grim. “What do you mean?”
Eugene was a little frustrated. “Bernard Qaisa will be returning to Oskon City in two days. It’ll be difficult
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto meet him again after that.”
Viola had chosen a bad time to pass out at the office. Eugene was supposed to meet Bernard for a
business meeting as LeapCo was planning to expand in Oskon City. The best way to do that was to
work with the Qaisas.
Eugene could have gotten someone else to take Viola to the hospital.
However, the non–profit organization was there, and the Qaisas had done a lot of charity work. Eugene
had initiated a connection with Bernard via charity work as well.
When Viola was helped up to the office, she had deliberately named Eugene to accompany her to the
hospital.
LeapCo had spent years building up an image that was only recently recognized by the public. If an
employee was sick and Eugene had chosen to ignore her, it would have left a bad impression on the
organization.
Henry immediately understood what had transpired. He said coldly, “Can’t you do anything right?”
